Description: (the readme file)
Name: Gold Rush GALS final*
Game: Enemy Territory (ET)
MISSION:
On this map Allies must steal and escort a tank through a tropical village. Nice map with lots of hideaways and branchings.
OBJECTIVES (ALLIES):
Repair the tank, steal it and escort it to the bank. Build also a command post. Destroy the tank and truck traps, steal the gold from the bank and load it on the truck. Then drive with the truck to the exit gate.
Covert Ops can be very usefully with smoke grenades, especially when the engineer plants dynamite at the traps or later on to steal the gold. This makes it hard for Axis to take your team mates into their gun sight.
OBJECTIVES (AXIS):
At the beginning the highest priority is the tank. There you should try to repel the Allies as long as possible to prevent the theft of the tank. The entrance and the area around the tank should be layed with mines. Don't forget to build the command post. The first tank trap should be build in time too to prevent a quick overwhelm. Later on all tank and truck traps should be build and the important places layed with mines. If the Allies blow up the bank the defense inside should be very strong. Best with a MG42 and a Panzerfaust. In front of the bank lay alot of mines and destroy the truck.
HIGHLIGHTS:
The tank with the mounted MG42 rocks ...
This is a modified version of Gold Rush that allows greater access to
old and new area's while trying to maintain the stock look of the original map.
More improvements over the previous beta 2 version which include,
- More access to ledges throughout the map and not just the bank courtyard.
- New area's added, once again they remain secret's and i wont say where.
- Area at the entrance of the crawl-way near the command post can now be
mined under the bushes, this is to offset how easy is was before when the axis
coverts would use this route to blow the cp, now if they don't watch they can
crawl over a mine by mistake.
- One of the new area's added allows the allies another route into the bank, once
again though.. this route can be easily defended by the axis on larger servers.
- shutters that are in front of the new mg, plus access routes to axis spawn area,
plus the way to the command post, via the light tower are now shootable instead of
being able to open. once destroyed they are gone for the rest of the game.
- Most of the new doors that were added have now been changed to standard et doors,
with louder doors sounds to accompany them and they now swing both way's.
- Other changes include repairs to the original map that had some iffy brushwork and
removed and reclipped over 90% of the ceiling clip brushes. ( the changes to the brushwork
managed to drop the average windings down 14 meg from the stock compile time and lower vis
data... although... only mappers might appreciate that tech talk.. =) fps remains the same.
- new misc repairs where i found some sloppiness in mapping on my part, caulked area's are
no longer visible. other misc differences also.. to many to mention.
this version is intended to hopefully solve the issue of the error MAX_GAMESTATE_CHARS when
the allies win on large servers up to 60 players.for smaller servers the previous version with
the elevators ( goldrush-ga ) still works fine.
Hopefully the average gamer who has played gold rush will not notice anything different as
that was the intention, to keep the map as original looking as possible and to stumble upon
some new area and say to themselves,
"i have played this map hundreds of times and never seen that before... "
Why did i do this??? because on larger servers up to 40 or more players, it's near impossible
for the allied team to win, and hopefully more greater access can improve their chances to win
at least 50% of the time, and personally i have always thought of goldrush as a death match map
and there's more humorous and ambush kill places in this one to make that happen.
