Outpost abandoned BETA
- Thread starter borase
- Start date
Agreed. is this version 2 new? I dont know what day that came out? Not sure whether I have version 1 or 2?
I'm in the midst of testing V2 right now in Solo Hard and so far, there are very few concerns. However, there is one spot on the map where Zed spawns are very infrequent and I find myself only fighting them one by one with large gaps of silence in between.
Here's the location:

Also, the Clot Mother outside that tunnel is quite jarring, but only because of the underwater effect that it naturally has. Also the fuel stream coming from the fuel canister stands out way too much for me.
Mechanically, it works great. The choice to place this at night is fantastic and makes great use of the flashlight and nightvision functions that are so drastically underused in the base game.

Most OP spot in the map/game https://i.imgur.com/tsR5rgz.jpg you can even get on top of the hallway and zeds wont even try to attack you, not even hans nor the husk. Hans just stares at you when your above the hallway. Hans just stares at you while you blast his face open, he doesn't even try to heal, instead he just stays sitting there. He will try to heal once someone gets down and gets in his face for about 10 secs.
The way to get up there is on the left side of the hallway, jumping on top of the rock on the right side when walking out. You don't even need to double barrel jump, you just have to jump regularly in the right position.

Is anyone having this map working through redirect online? If I install manually the map, I can join the server, but if I download map via redirect server (all files are correctly downloaded in the CACHE folder) it just crashes the game on join.
I also noticed a problem on the map in the underground area you added, if you jump from the stair to the big blue things, zeds just stop chasing you, they can't find you, and often just disappear and teleport far away in the map, or you will have to touch them to 'reactivate' them. I think you should just add big blocking volumes on these blue 'electrical motors with electrical case behind. Each time I jumped from the stairs to these blue things, I f...ed up the zeds pathing and they got stuck where they were before I jumped.
Also overall new areas, zeds seem to have hard time to find you there.

Are you gonna rename the new version or what?
Isnt renaming every new public version of a map a common sense of every mapper?
We cant play V2 until you do so
I renamed the V2 on my own and i got crashed!
Damn

I noticed in the jungle part (the custom part of your map) that you can't shoot through the plants. Is there a way to fix this?
I can't get the latest V2 version to load on a linux-based redirect server. I'm getting a 'Downloading package FX_Pckoutpost failed: Error opening file' message when it fails to load online.
As your map files are redirected on a Linux based server I have them renamed to lower-case as instructed here. Any idea what might be going wrong? Your V1 hosted in lower-case seemed to work.

I would recommend adding way more Zed spawns in the sections that you added to the map. They look pretty and are fun, but the fun kind of dies out waiting for the Zeds to make it across the map just to get to you. The new sections are great, just add a few more spawning points to make it harder. Right now, staying in those new sections is like camping in the first Killing Floor. Besides that, the map is really solid. Good work.
Works fine in single player but unable to run it on our servers. Server refuses to switch to the map regardless.
Here is our config:
Here is our config:
Code:
[KF-Pckoutpost KFMapSummary]
MapName=KF-Pckoutpost.V3
ScreenshotPathName=UI_MapPreview_TEX.UI_MapPreview_PlaceholderOkay but can you please add a version number on the actual map file next release it messes up the redirect I think some how as after I updated the files all I have done since V2 is crash client side when I try to join my server with every other map working fine, and I have tired reuploading and redownloading 3 times just make sure.
That did the trick, however all clients who joined the test server crashed while loading the map after it downloaded.
Here is the error log:
Code:
0293.85] Critical: appError called: Couldn't find file for package FX_Pckoutpost requested by async loading code.
[0297.25] Log: === Critical error: ===
Couldn't find file for package FX_Pckoutpost requested by async loading code.I'm quite sure FX_Pckoutpost has been properly uploaded as I see it in my cache as well.
Have you considered packing your resources into the map file?
[EDIT]
Here is the folder for reference:
Spoiler!
Downloaded FX_Pckoutpost:

For me it does not work from redirect even if all files download well, game crashes. If I install files manually on client, I can join server. I think it is something with all additional packages from the redirect.. Game seems to have a hard time with those files in the cache. I think the best thing to do is to save all these files INSIDE the map package it will work well this way.
Same problem here, all files are present on the redirect server and the game downloads them all without problem.
All show up in the cache file, and are binary identical to the files I uploaded to the server and redirect.
But the client crashes (bugsplat) immediately after download finishes.
