Welcome to the production of a KF2-Map

You were always interested how a map could be developed in kf2 but have no time or idea how this is done. Here you could see it ;-) No text, no interacts, you will only see differences in optics, zed-pathing and availabe areas from wave to wave.

This Map is progression and holdout. New Round / New FIX Area.

Progression Plot:

• 01. Basic Layout • 02. Textures/Splattermap/WorldBoundary • 03. First Meshes like Trees & Library • 04. First Details (incl. first lights), indoor/outdoor lightning, dynamic outdoor lightning, fog • 05. Further Details (e.g. grass), building obstacles, first destructible actors, start blocking ZED-spawn-areas • 06. Further Details (indoor bar, shelfs), skybox, detailed indoor lightning, doors, additional ZED paths • 07. Optimize ZED-spawn areas, debris, block last ZED-spawn-area, dynamic meshes (e.g.chairs) • 08. Add additional ZED-spawns, rain mesh and emitter, finalize outside area • 09. Further obstacles, gore actors, visibillity blocks, additional particle effects (e.g. dust) • 10. additional gore actors, decals, collectibles, doshholdvolume • 11. finalize inside area (debris, decals, obstacles, zed-pathing) File Name: KF-HowToBuildYourOwnKF2Map Download: 37 mb HardDrive: 454 mb ID: 1716107878

Recommend: • Survival HoE 10 waves

Note: There are obviously some changes in this map compared how other maps are created. For example the ZED spawns are nothing you would create as one of the first things. Also the pathing for the ZED is something you should do after the complete layout is clear and you wont change important things on this topic. But the map would be a bit lame if there wouldn't be any zed spawns the early waves^^ I tried to stick as close as possible on how it could be done without lowering the entertainment factor.

Some nerd data: • 10 Trader • 17334 StaticMeshes (Trees, Rocks, etc.) • 2 Ambient Sound Actors (Airship) • 718 Lights • 1266 Destructibles (Lights, Screens, Tables, etc.) • 370 Emitters (Dust, Wind, etc.) • 1003 Volumes (Blocking, Trigger, PostProcess, etc) • 562 Kissmet notes (Animations, Teleports etc.) • v.40

Good luck and don't forget to thump up ;-)
