Canada no! 100 MB is too big for even broadband.
I posted the reason for the 2 MB limit. Remember that this is "when compressed". SEFOTRF Mission 2:Retaliation took up only 900k when compressed. Decompressed it was something like 8 MB. See the power of compression?
Anyway, I listed a clause letting people throw in a higher file size at the expense of their score. If your goal is to jsut make the map as a matter of pride, this won't bother you. If you want to win, this'll arg you off a lot. There's always rules people don't like, but they're there to protect people. In this case, protect people like Pred and myself from spending all day downloading just one map. More than likely, if the size is that big, you're putting nothing more than customs in anyway. From that, you could easily say that you'd be getting nothing more than a pretty picture to look at. I'd prefer a challenging SP map, and most of these can be fitted in small sizes (look at Assault-Better, it's only 90k!).
NCF "o--w=-n+-e_-d" is not a swear word, stop erasing it! (for those who can't figure it out, take out the symbols to read the word, n00b). We allow such insults like n00b and hoser, so why not "o-w-n-e-d"? It's not like I swore like you did (you didn't even care to censor it! I suppose an ampersand (&) is supposed to confuse the 2 year olds?). |

Yeah!Our connection always cut out,so it isnt possible for us to download it over night.I just sleep for 6 hours, if a map or mod takes 10 hours to download,i,ll call it for me Mad,Crazy,Stupid.No matter how good it is,coz its intenet racism,slow speeds get almost nothing while high speeds get everything.So is the word p.u.s.s.y!I didint no that it is a censored word.In fact isnt there another name for the cat like CENSORED cat?NCF, You can delete that
Anyway i think we should post our pics of the maps for this competition to attract more people to download it |
I love L4Y! |

A singleplayer campain that runs with a mod...
I'm wondering is this going to b treated as a mod or "a level"?
I recommend it to use mods, everything goes easier and it unlocks abilities you cannot do without them, like custom clutter meshes or simple skin textures for the enemies.
If you call the first level l1s1.rfl and add it to the mod files it can be ran throught the MENU just like the normal game.
The level ressources will only be used when running the mod, and it's all in one VPP or multiple ones if you want, but these are located in their own folders. |

*cough* cough*
It's written above.
If you're not going to do this, you can also run the map like any normal singleplayer map. RedFaction reads the rfl files from the mod folder, too.
-mod blah -level nah |

We're not writing mods. If it is popular enough, we can hold a modding competition later (it would obviously hold no MP mods). This competition is only for SP levels.
Pred, I don't think it is NCF blocking this. Garner must have made a system-wide censor on common words. |

I have to agree with Red Frog, Having the same Merks & Guards as enemies are so ordinary.. |

Pred, didn't you already figure that out? If not, you're such a genius you'd figure it out eventually (a simple mod would do it anyway). |

So you'd have to mod in order to get them?
So why not make some larger enemies in Max, since you already have to make a mod.
Mutant with Fire sounds good, Sea creature with hmg sounds a bit lame though |

Should I tell him how you did it Pred? Adam, it isn't a mod how he did it. He simply made use of a flaw in RED to make mod-like creatures. Actually, its odd no other great mappers didn't notice this already. Pred can tell more if he wants, as it's his secret, not mine. |
