Post by: Malpracticeisdead on July 11, 2011, 03:57:55 pm
(http://13lo.szczecin.pl/elkondo/haxxy.png) (http://www.ganggarrison.com/haxxy)

Welcome stuffmakers. It's my pleasure to announce a very special event, possibly the first of its kind in Gang Garrison history, the first annual Gang Garrison 2 Haxxy Awards! The Haxxy Awards, our own version of TF2's Saxxy Awards, is a competition for the creative minds of Gang Garrison 2 to see who can make the best maps, mods, art, and screenshots. Pour your blood, sweat, and tears into your creations for a chance to win cool prizes and internet fame!

General rules:

If you have any questions or concerns, post them in the Haxxy General Board (http://www.ganggarrison.com/forums/index.php?board=44.0). The other boards are for submissions only.

And yes, this is a legitimate update, have a changelog:

I wish I could run gibs, I had a screenshot of eight spies being blown to smithereens by ~16 stickys, but I was only running blood atm  :z7:


which reminds me, people are going to abuse the gib levels  :z4:

We have to make something new for this (non-spritemod), don't we?

Also, for the gibs, can we use a mod  :angel:?

Most Gibby Screenshot rules:
  • Simple:
    • 0wn some n00bs
    • take a screenshot
    • post here
  • There doesn't have to be many actual gibs - just high body count and lots of pwnage.
  • All screenshots have to be taken in the actual game.
  • To take a screenshot press F9. Screenshots will be saved in your Gang Garrison 2 folder. You can use PrintScreen button as well.

Is there a final list of judges yet? I think I'm one of the map judges (primarily the art side of it).

I'm going to be entering the non-spritemod (insmod), conventional GG2 art (insmod poster), and other cool stuff category (insmod trailer). Hopefully looking forward to an award show sweep in my categories.

what changelog
Title: Re: Version 2.3.4: The Haxxy Update
Post by: Musashi-COM on July 11, 2011, 05:53:30 pm
And yes, this is a legitimate update, have a changelog:
  • Tweaked movement for airblasted players (slightly more control and friction)
  • Attempting to control your motion when moving very fast (e.g. when rocktejumping) will slow you down now
  • Fixed minejuggled teammates receiving the control penalty of minejuggled enemies
  • Improved stabbing behaviour; You can now stab opponents and sentries close to walls, as long as there is a clear path
  • Changed revoler reload from clip to single bullets
  • Fixed impact sprite (what you see when e.g. bullets hit obstacles) being off-center

Oh. My mistake.
Title: Re: Version 2.3.4: The Haxxy Update
Post by: Ignis on July 11, 2011, 08:12:38 pm
Damn, they didn't make airblasted aerial mines travel farther.
That was one of the things I was looking forward to.

I'd love to collaborate with an idea for a map.

Note idea.  Not coloring skill or wallmask skill.

It's sad that there is no cooperation in other categories besides "Best Non Sprite Mod" I would have gladly helped some people here. Oh well those are the rules.
Title: Re: Version 2.3.4: The Haxxy Update
Post by: Shadow the Past on July 11, 2011, 10:27:51 pm
Contest is good but the rules suck ass. A limited number of submissions is retarded. If members want to they should be allowed to "spam" categories, we're only voting on the top 5 anyway.
And teamwork should be allowed on ALL of the categories, as long as all of the teammembers are properly listed.
I agree. I tl;dr'd the rules, but adding a bunch of strict rules to a contest not a large number of people are going to participate in in such a small community isn't a great idea. It will only discourage people from entering.
Title: Re: Version 2.3.4: The Haxxy Update
Post by: Haxton Sale on July 11, 2011, 10:38:01 pm
Ok then, I'll see how many entries we get within next 24 hours, and change the rules based on that.
Fuck it, changing anyway. You could have said that earlier.

I had one issue with this update: frame skipping.
Like, I was playing q/c and whenever I was running around I'd find myself at the other end of the map by 10 seconds or less, autoguns and players couldn't touch me because I was frame skipping that bad.
I frequently threw up the ? bubble.

Shut down other processes. And other people saw you just fine, you weren't skipping on their screens since the game is in TCP.

Will there be prizes for the winners or will they just get their name shown somewhere saying they won and when does the contest end? :z2:

A date with teekytos was our planned prize for the winners but we're seeing what can we do about lesser valued prizes.

Anyhow, I don't think Infiltrator got such a bad nerf. If anything, most of the times it's just one bullet that you need to finish off an enemy, it just makes it recharge faster.

Obviously, there will be a forum title and cool replacement for stars.
But there will be some other prizes too. It's secret for now, but I can easily say that you won't be disappointed.
