Damnit im so stupid.
There was a 7zip in my computer all along.

I have installed a new router on our home network (old isp provided shit was shitty) and I have a keyboard with working S and D keys now so hopefully my INSmod playing should go up

assuming I'm not to lazy to use my brand-spanking-new actually-working-logical fort-porward settings

Going to host INSmod for probably the whole weekend.

If the server goes down feel free to let me know any way you can.
Unless it is telepathic and between the hours of 3am-6am.

Hi Rebel! I figured I'd post this here before I did anything else, just to see if you're ok with me doing so. I thought I'd help finish skinning Metro Station, give it a brick background and such. This is all I've done so far, but I really like how it came out! I think I made the "bend" effect look pretty good.

send me bg later

Alright, I'm glad you're considering using it! It's nowhere near done, but I'm confident that it'll turn out faithful to GG2's style without becoming a distraction like my old maps were.

[Humble Master]

Hmm, I'd like to see those old maps.

Anyway the curve effect looks great.

I'd really like to see a story behind INS. Perhaps a collaborative effort?

Exactly like the intro to super smash brothers brawl but with cooler characters

Super INS Sisters Brawl

Firstly, thank you!

Secondly, my old maps were either unbalanced (such is the case with my first map, ctf_Garrison_City), so detailed that it was distracting (such is the case with my final map, ctf_Industrealization), or so detailed that it was difficult to tell what was solid since the style was so wildly different from normal GG2 (such is the case with arena_Dagobah). The only map I made that didn't seem to bother anyone was rr_happyviking, a map that I didn't design and merely added a background to.

Here are my maps in chronological order, from first to last.

Garrison City:


Dagobah:


Industrealization:

I must say, you really do make some of the most prettiest maps around.

Those maps are just so amazing.

Thank you both..! Unfortunately, I stopped making maps because making them pretty was all I was good at. My maps aren't played because they're either extremely confusing or simply not fun to play on. The one that's closest to perfect is Industrealization, but the only route anyone took was the top route since it was the easiest to access and escape through. It didn't matter that going through the warehouse was the safest, it went unused because it wasn't fun to go through. It didn't matter that the smelting plant was so beautiful, unique, or a guaranteed access point to the intel, it was such a pain to go through and took so long to traverse that it was NEVER used. I wasn't considering how much of a pain the jumps in the smelting plant's air ducts are to get back up from. While these routes all had their own merits, either safety or guaranteed access to the intel, the top route was always used because it was the quickest. People were more willing to take their chances with the snipers, scouts, demos and sentries by going over the warehouse roof and bypassing the obstacles. I at least made a stunningly beautiful map out of it, one that you could tell what was solid and what wasn't.

In short, I stopped making maps because I wasn't able to take into account all the innumerable factors that go into DESIGNING a map. I get so preoccupied with making a map realistic and pretty that by the time I make a mistake with its layout, it's too late for me to simply erase it.

I don't regret the decision to switch from maps to mods, I've found my niche among mod creation. I'm far happier and more productive designing mods than I was designing maps.

Very beautiful.

okay i'm resuming work on this today. the reason i haven't worked on this lately is because i just started a new job.

please remind me what errors and considerations worked on/need to be completed. I might release version 1.22 depending on how productive I am.
