Hello,

I ported a Zelda Game (Zelda Twilight Princess on Wii) into ZE. That was an old project started in 2015. I decided to finish it now since i have plenty of time now.

A brief presentation of the map :

1) STAGE 1 - Hyrule Castle

  • Linear Stage
  • 4 holds points
  • A fun final escape with 2 cannons


2) STAGE 2 - Discovery of Celestia

  • Linear stage
  • An ammo item
  • 1 end fight boss without final escape


3) STAGE 3 - Battle with Zant

  • Linear stage
  • An ammo item
  • 3 holds points
  • A final boss (Zant)
  • A final escape after defeating the boss


4) STAGE 4 - Final stage

  • Linear stage
  • Teamwork needed to finish the stage
  • you have choice between 2 last bosses
  • Last escape with old school lasers

How to test it ? ​

​
I need some people to test the map.
Can you report here the bugs you found (with screenshot if you can).
Any suggestions (musics? new features? an another hold point? add an item?) will be discuted here

The testers will have their name in a panel in the spawn room :)​

IMPORTANT :
When you test it, turn on "net_graph1" command to see the fps. If you have less than 80 fps in a zone, let me know. Another things , the admin room is located under the spawn. You can choose the level you want to play just by shooting on the number.

I thought it looks really cool, especially the ending to level 1.

I found some issues/things that looked weird and put them on imgur:

Only other things:
At end of level 1, seems two songs are playing at the same time.
I think model collisions are turned on - dunno if that is desirable, e.g. for the flying boss the model is hard to get out of once if starts pushing you.
Also I'm not sure if the celestia/screen materials have been packed into the map, had some console errors.

Thanks for the feedback. Most of this has been fixed already. The lasers doesn't work for some reason, I think i'll change and put a new hold point here. For the message, it's an overlay (a message that appear directly on the screen). I forget to pack them in the .bsp thats why you can't see them. I'll add command message too, just in case.
 
(Sorry if you don't understand everything i wrote , I'm still learning english so be nice ) :P

Hey dude , first of all i had not a single fps drop so thats a very good point, i think stage 1 is pretty cool and well designed, however i didn't manage to finish stage 2 , i ended up in a square room with void on each sides and nothing happened , Stage 3 no problems also cool boss fight (im not sure what the 2 towers on each side of the area are for ) but overall good and stage 4 is cool too .

So there's a few problem in my opinion in certain areas of your map , there's a lot of jump-holes area (Stairs with lava, dungeon, room with flamethrowers) which is difficult for zombies to go trough , and second point is that sometimes in the map i was like wait where should i go , this way ? no this way i mean its not a problem but it feels like some parts are confusing for what way to go (I think it is stage 2 , with lots of metal grids covering holes in the walls , sometimes on the walls you think there's a ladder but there's none)

Other things are really good to me such as the wind parts between some places in the map which brings out cool mechanics of shooting, walking and making sure not to fall off , same for the flamethrowers in the jumping room

Overall i think you did a good job keep it up

Thank you for the feedback

I added more message to indicate the direction to go to the players. Also, you should had seen this kind of hud message but i forget to pack the picture file in the .bsp :

For the difficulty, i don't know if its too hard for ZM or no. We need to test it with lots of players to appreciate the difficulty of the map.

Btw i added another stage, a ZM stage after completing the map. I'll post a link for the updated version here. It may be playable now, i can't find major/gamebreaker glitch.

Stage 1 was fine, the other stages had a lot of issues.

The best thing is probably if you watch the demos.

Thank you, i'll look at these demos :)

I couldn't test it with you during the week, i don't have access to my computer

EDIT : I just saw those demos, well lots of things are confusing, especially in level 2. People don't know where to go. I'll make it more easy to understand. The boss hp also doesn't increase with the number of humans in the fight, that's problematic, they insta-die.
