this is your map's testing channel! Post map updates here and remember to follow our mapper rules: https://ddnet.org/rules

https://ddnet.org/testmaps/?map=Lost_Ground

I would also like to add a few demos that will help avoid questions with some parts

stop adding new ht

this is not an oldschool tile

I will return the old one later

returned the old ht

minor fixes

added this undeep, cuz if the strong tee will be in deepfreeze than the next part won't work correctly. This undeep will give opportunity to swap

but /swap command exists

parts should work without

Start after unsolo

Can you show me how you do it ?

That map is really incredible

I fixed the start line, the freeze triangles, the animation, some missing hookable and unhookable

$ready 4

It could be 3 because it isn't very long but it's harder than the average 3* oldschool map

this is so cool holy fuck

U should try maps like puzzle partners or brainduck u will be very impressed

Skystrifes showed me his declined map when it was in testing phase, really awesome stuff most players never get to see

I'm sure the map is very good, unfortunately I didn't had time to test it

forgot the HD things

wrong entities/design here

I forgot to change it, I wasn't sure if it should stay 3 freeze or 1 with triangles

What do you think

What HD?

Do you mean to move more things into HD ?

If so, I don't think it's relevant

Bushes won't cause lag

I mean just the normal design HD things lol

It's normal to move all not gameplay relevant design to HD, u should know it.. It's for ppl with potato pc if they want to play with design but not all of the design

I don't think it was planned with 3 freeze

It's hard to tell without the original

Many triangles were wrong

And no it's not normal

i fix it of my feeling, what wanted the mapper

🤷‍♂️

Even for low spec PCs

HD was more relevant 10 years ago

if u say so, i will continue with my testing 😛

contains hd stuff that u dont need

I did some tests, talked about it with Patiga (quads and performances), did more tests with people with terrible PCs

u can avoid that by just adding hd

😄

Avoid what

ask potato pc's etc

No, you don't get it

I did the tests to know if it makes sense to put things in HD for performance reasons

yes i said u dont have to

just click hd and its done

but whatever

nobody will play this with design anyway

In the end, it doesn't and nowadays HD is only about graphics preferences

i think it was a good rule

all things u dont need can be hd

Yeah, the other thing is that the very few rare people who have terrible PCs can't handle designs at all. They usually play with quads off or entities on

as i said if i fix or test maps ill continue like ever, for me its not 100% finsihed rn

That's a good rule ! The problem is that many people play with HD off without knowing it

I have encountered too many people who didn't know about HD and it was off

thats not a testing problem

xd

I already asked to have a low/high graphics setting like in most games

its like u say 95% of the players are not able to finish brutal 5 maps on his own

not a testing/ddnet problem i guess

its ur own problem

but just set a cut, u do it like u want and me 2

just pointing out such things in ready maps if i see

What is the point of making à design to hide half of it. It was good before, but we have entities now

Yeah it doesn't really matter

HD is kind of pointless

That's why I rarely use it anymore

But it doesn't hurt if you want to use it

Just point out if things are in HD and they shouldn't
