the start is confusing, add more cps.

hey knuckles!
if i add new cp at start, it will be the war to touch it because the checkpoint isn't enough high for the width of the road. it's why i place the 1st cp after the first turn. but i add arrows and i repost it. see next testing

i find a looping editor in mr-green forum.
if you want to build a looping easily, you have to download it.
after 4 or 5 try, you can have 1,2,3 or4 loopings on your map. Nice!
i don't really try the others uses but you can build helix (try it).

go to
http://forum.mr-green.nl/index.php?showtopic=111&st=0

thanks to mr-green for his maptools

nice, you told me earlier of this. I personally dont like loopings and helixs (since i have a deep hate against going_down like maps :P)... More people would agree with me on that... But nevertheless, for people who like these kind of obsticles can have some fun with it! :)

another link for download or load many maps!
http://center.mtasa.com/?p=search

you can download every map post by someone. after download, place the .map in this folder: MTA San Andreas\mods\map_editor\maps and load it in the map editor!

thanks to cygnus or plop ( i don't remember who tell me) for the advice.

hey all, just a message about the map testing.

-- EL-MAGNIFICO --
- The long straight stretch (before the loops) at the end is pointless. (raz0) ::)
- the finish should be a corona you can skipp it atm (Plop) :-\
- IMO you should avoid putting something difficult RIGHT at the end. (raz0) :P
- This map was better before (where it was not perfect). It just completely lost it's soul (raz0)
+ still hard, but acceptable for me (Cygnus) ;D
Voted yes: 1 / Voted no: 2  :D >:( >:(
* Map deleted * :'(

i'm right with raz0, it's not the map i would be post. At the moment, i trying to rebuild completly the drift zone and the looping area.

i've a question: if i fix el-brujo_1 and i upload it, is there a risk you delete it and you delete the old version in the map testing ? :P

No. If you upload an update to a map we will carefully consider whether we like the new map better. If we do, it will replace the old map. If we don't, the old map stays.

thx for the informations raz0!

after a test with raz0 (thx2), i fixed the loopings series, but after a test on the server with knux, many players think that the series are too hard.
so, i refixed the series and i replaced the old series (2x3loops) by a new one (1 in 2 loops, 1 in 2.5 loops & i increased the looping's radius).
i think that the new version is better for playing. so, choose the best version ( if you approved it :P)
the name of the new version is fuckingham-palaceV2.map
ciao ciao
