redfist 03-02-2005 04:33 PM MST   Yes ,Akuma made very good maps.and i think he does more art now,than mapping,along with alot of other computer related things. If I may add here,RA maps are all basicaly areana maps,there are only like 2 or 3 that would be good to redo into DM. FraGnBraG 03-02-2005 01:18 PM MST   i'm not going to rate this - i had to see what this was about so i revisited ra and then played your version of this... imo, what's the point? i ask you how did u improve on this? it's works 1on1 in ra but it's not interesting as utdm.. i suppose since it shipped with utgoty it's fair game for modding... since goty(totally unreal) lacks an ra-readme file i wonder if u asked akuma permission to do this?? u should anyway... why not forget about the other ones and design and build your _own_ map - perhaps get your inspiration from the ra maps (just don't copy them - imo that's sorta lame :) you should really remove the part of your post that says "i made this for you" because you did not make this map - just put it another way... cheers *edit* /me=LOL@vw :) dude, u have _no_ idea what i am capable of, obviously ... nuff said, do what you want, i simply prefer to see peeps try their own hand, especially if they start out with crap, then do another, another, getting better each time, doing their own things, not rehashing old standards... yeah, i agree about "product" resources - it's in the eula - that map was from a mod though -- good you tried to at least ask him tho, kudos - maybe say that in your readme (it's a courtesy anyway) so many people just rip... (vw if you want to discuss viewpoints we can go to the forums... :) btw, i didn't say your map sucked or anything, so be cool :) vikingwarrior 03-02-2005 09:33 AM MST   First of all i want you to know that the original author is Rich 'Akuma' Eastwood i got the idea to convert RA-Akuma , but i could only convert a part of it ! The first part i converted was Sector-9. i want to convert more parts but it takes a lot of time, because i can only work with the base i needed to Texture the whole map from the start and placed the weapons , powerups spawnpoints and crap like that ! But hey i did all that and i am happy with my first convert, more will be converted in the future but it takes some time be patience...hehe ! I worked my ass off to get this map suitable for DM ! Now go on and love this map i CONVERTED it for you !!! (and for you FraGNBraG !) *em...FraGNBraG if you think you know what it takes to convert a map and re-texture it as the original you're my man...! (but i think it will be a huge strugle for you to even copy the map) I worked 2 days to complete this map, because i noticed in some forums they said they would love to play the RA maps as DM maps and asked of anyone could convert the maps ?!?! That was my job to please a lot of people to convert it dude !!! (you got it now?) Think of that before you comment,and as for the Author i tried to ask for his promision but i am afraid he died , because it was such a while ago he made this map ;-) And as for maps i made ? i won't MAKE them , because your lame comment will BREAK them ! I will continue this same proces with al the RA maps and won't ask promision but will leave the author in the map and put it in the Read Me's too so the authors name won't be lost ! *cheers FraGNBraG suck on that ! *Quit bitching , just play ! greetings [Viking]Warrior and visit my sites : http://www.vikingwarrior.nl http://www.unrealviking.nl or join my dedicated server: 80.61.171.7 or www.unrealviking.nl (both ip's work!) IndySkyz 03-02-2005 11:09 AM MST   The idea to convert RA maps to DM has been around for years, and altho it semed like a good idea, the maps just dont work as well as the originals for DM, that said tho, there is nothing wrong with doin it if you want, as for permission to use a map, IMO you got it when you paid money for the game it was included in, once you buy the game all the content within that game is yours to do with what you will, as long as you give credit to the original author I highly doubt he will care one bit, if you lok at it Frags way no map is original if it even uses one decoration from the UT actors classes. To save you some time tho, I will send you a bunch of RA maps I already did years ago, if you like. And alto its not making a map from scratch it does take some time and effort, more than most will even try to do, let alone complete.
