[Coop] Colours Co-Op : : Map 4
Quote from IanB on May 17, 2011, 11:25 pmThis time the theme is Red & it's set in 1960s Aperture!
And it of course has to feature lasers and all 3 gel types!So a lot of people found Green too hard.
I'll make up for it with this mild/easily solvable one~ Enjoy!
(Updated To Version 5 - Let Me Know If It Lags Still Due To Sound Overload Errors! - Note: This isn't an optimization problem, it's an ambient_generic problem)
Notes: V 1.7 has sounds removed so it doesn't crash/lag.
V 1.6 has the original music as planned that was removed due to... well some kinda weird Portal 2 Bug that I can't fix.File Name: COLOURS_Map_4_V7.zip

Quote from IanB on May 18, 2011, 12:15 amSome people may get lag with this map if you open and close a circuit VERY RAPIDLY causing some kind of a sound overwhelming bug.
I think this is a problem with the engine or maybe the SDK Beta, I'm trying to patch in a work around.
This was also why people were reporting Lag on Colours 2 and 3: if you force too many sounds to play at once in Portal 2 it starts freakin' out.

Quote from Djinndrache on May 18, 2011, 1:26 amI played the maps 1-3 before and I really liked the difficulty of the third one. Too sad that u said this is going to be easier
But as I didnt play it yet, i wont tell you to make harder ones.
But as soon as my coop mate comes on, we will play this for sure!btw: I record all custom maps I/we play, I'll upload the records whenever I get the time to (internet is slow here, gotta upload at night or when im at university).
I'll post again when recording is done and/or uploaded
Anyway I can already say: Keep the maps coming! Awesome job you're doing there.

Quote from Kuchen on May 18, 2011, 7:43 amI Really love your maps. You?re doing a great job.
I?ve played the maps 1-3 already now im waiting for my co-op Partner to come online so i can play the 4th map.
I really liked the green map and the difficulty of it. I hope the red one it not to easy.
And in your green map (i dont think you should do it like this) you were able to get the cube that is jumping all the time on the Button. Maybe you could fix it by making the fence on the 2nd stage a little bit higher.

Quote from IanB on May 18, 2011, 12:43 pmReally? Because the previous map attracted something close to 2 pages of people saying that they'd "Part ways" with the series if it continued to be at that level of difficulty.
I think most people prefer
1: Easily solved maps and
2: Maps that try to trick you by killing you when you perform an expected action.
3: Maps that stick to the original theme and refuse to deviate from it.Those seem to be ones that get the highest ratings best reactions.
I'm not saying I'm going to be appealing to numbers 1 and 3 now,
but I might start thinking about going exclusively toward number 2 from here on out.

Quote from sofaking42 on May 18, 2011, 4:09 pmYeah I agree, this is downloading uber slow. If someone could post an alternate download site link it would be much appreciated.
