Do you still have the source-files to Frost Kinev? I would like to fix the map. And add it to Redstone. The snapshot overflows should be relatively simple for me to resolve.

There's too many entities within a players view at once. This map has a ton of snapshow overflows which causes a ton of people to disconnect.

Of course Frost likes a map named Frost. Now, I'd like to thread bump this, cause it seems like no one plays it. I can't remember why! Can we improve it if there's any issues?

add me

hay im looking for a friend to play this map with or more like lots of friends

Cool :)
in englisch?

yep, it is, I intend to make a tut, as soon as I got the proper equipment :)

+Kinev i wish you could make tutorials for the nuclear dawn version but i think it is really 100% the source hammer editor

@Kinev Thanks :)

"For those who want to try out mapping, you find the NDAT in Library, tools and then if you own Nuclear Dawn, you will find it under the name Nuclear Dawn authoring tools.
You can find tutorials with the keywords, SDK (Source Development Kit) and Hammer (the Authoring tool for the source engine).

Also have a look at the websites of 3kliksphilip[ www.3kliksphilip.com ] and TopHATTwaffle[ www.tophattwaffle.com ]. "

Nice map !
But i cant find a map editor in the game :D
Or must i use Source sdk?

Alright I just pushed an update to all xG servers to reduce the chances of a snapshot overflow happening on frost. Will try it once during low server population on the deadest day of the week.

gut gemacht !

The error is known as "ERROR: Reliable Snapshot Overflow", it is caused by too many props being loaded by the client according to Steam.
I also read, that the error can be caused by too many Props of the same type (what's the case in Frost), other sources that suggested that too many brush sides of certain brushes - which are not loaded like props, but like func_details - can also cause the error due testing. This would also match because I use many func_trigger brushes and func_precipitation.

Now the real problem I have, to isolate the problem I need more than 12 people (I think, not sure), because the error only occurs on multiplayer. I also tried to provoke that error on a local host with two PCs, but showed no effect. I will try it with bots again I think.

But I will start the development of my map after may, for now enjoy the map with a few friends or explore it!. ;)
The more bugs you find the more I can fix! :)

Cya at the battlefield,

-Kinev

So Kinev do you need a kind of assistance to locate the source of the issue? Is it caused by client or server? I beleive we could find volunteers to perform few tests. Or just garther some statistics (OS type and architecture, Steam verison and language, region, etc). May be the issue 100% reproduceable on certain configurations?

Thank you, I will continue the work on it, don't worry. :)

Kinev, your map have a great potential! Please don't give up and finish the development. May be you should simplify something to fix the bugs. Anyway new maps is what we all are waiting for!

Wow snow! :) ,nice job

nice job, it looks great!

im scared

The Nav-mesh (that's the areas where the AI is allowed to act) is not worked out properly and will be improved in the future. Bots have basic orientation and are not able to climb ladders.

support for AI?

FRost is a great map, would have been a worthy include on the original release of the game

opps forgot the t in fastdl.
