claustrophobia mod turned into .scd

[Myxir]

i've turned the calustrophobia mod into a .scd file, it can be used as a featured mod in faf now

after a startup time of some minutes, the game will get smaller 25 times (1min time between the getting smaller part), until only very little space in the middle is left, everything outside explodes


i do not own the original mod, i've just turned it into a .scd file, sadly i don't know who created it



edit: removed the files since Brute51 (the author of this mod) wants to turn it into a scd hilself (also he got v3, i used v1)

Zock created it O.o

Or am I now totally wrong?

[Zock]

You are. Brute51 created it.

Yeah I've made this mod. I was inspired after reading about a mod of BulletMagnet. It increases the range of artillery weapons to give you the sense that you're not safe anywhere. His mod was also called Claustrophobia by the way and I originally used it only as a working title. I guess now it'll be the official title.

There's a V3 by the way, download here: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?1iid6ij6x7gm7sn . This is not an SCD version nor does it use lobby options. I'll add that in V4 (working on that as I speak).

Headlines of V3:
- Visual indicator to indicate where map will shrink to, next shrink interval
- A toggle to enable audio warnings. By default it's turned off by the way.
- Prepare time increased to 5 minutes (coming from 4)
- Improvements and fixes "under the hood" (you probably won't notice it)
- A few add-on mods that change the behaviour of the mod (this is what I'll change in V4).

I've finished version 4. Changes:
- Removed some test code which I appearantly forgot to remove from V3
- Under the hood changed several things to make it possible to use lobby options (required for the "SCD"* release of the mod)
- Code clean up


Download it here.

I also have an "SCD"* version available here but I strongly recommend you use the other download, unless you know how to handle SCD files and datapath files, etc. But this version does support the requested lobby settings.



* I had troubles getting the mod to work using regular methods in an SCD file. For some reason the map wouldn't shrink properly. I solved it by using the method that FAF uses to handle mods, using a different file extension and a different datapath file (like how all bigger mods work).

[Zock]

can we have this as featured mod please?

[eXcalibur]

I agree with Zock. It is different and therefore new to FAF users.

[eXcalibur]

still not a featured mod?
are there reasons why?

i know we should not push Ze_pilot, but more than two weeks since release...

[pip]

I'm surprised it's not a featured mod. It's a good and fun mod, that changes a lot depending on the map.

[eXcalibur]

yes pip you are right.

i could image a 1v1 in setons where both players start at the "air spots": first you have a lot of land on the map, but in the end you will have (almost) only water left...
and there are also maps with a big lake in the middle...
