Zone Hosting / Advertising - Need Host blackmoon - Wed Aug 11, 2004 4:59 pm Post subject: Need Host
Ghost-Rider and myself need a host for our zone Flagging Evolved. It is your basic team-based flagging zone. The ship settings are fun and we do exploit the spawn bot uniquely for a few of the bases. You can contact me at blackmoon@blackmoonskeep.net, Ghost-Rider at ghostrider@blackmoonskeep.net, or just sign up at www.blackmoonskeep.net/evolved and check it out.
There are custom zone settings on our website so you can access our test server. Currently we have a public arena, duel, elim, and conquer, with a turf game and some mini games in development.

Some advice as a host and from personal experience would be to scratch the sub-arena's and focus on your main arena. A zone is never finished. There's always something you can do to improve it. And as a beginning zone you have no need for sub-arena's. They will simply detract from your main arena and ruin your zone.
This also goes out to all new zone owners.

yeah.... I understand that. It is just that some hosts want to see the whole thing. Well, this is pretty much it. Already working on a 2nd map, tileset, ship settings, and bots for the changemap. For now, the zone is "finished" except for tweaking. then once we get a host, it will be on to the next version of pub already in the works. D1st0rt - Thu Aug 12, 2004 9:05 am Post subject:

So you're going to revamp your zone once it gets hosted. Makes sense.

Like 1ststrike said, a zone is never done. As soon as I completed my map, simple tileset, and shipsettings, I added some subarenas to get used to toying with bots, and now I am ready to work on a new map, and new tileset, etc.... and that doesnt mean that it will change immediately after getting a host.
Just meaning that once the new stuff is done, it will take place of the current stuff, whether I have a host by then or not. I am hoping it will be by then because it will take us about 3 or 4 months to finish it with the little time we have for that.

oh ok, by "2nd map" I thought you meant more subarenas

oh.. hehehe... sorry, nope. I have someone else developing event sub-arenas, but we are done with all of the current sub-arenas, dont want to spread any future pop too thin.
btw.... any takers on hosting???? lol!
