What the heck is open -n- coop map theme anyway?
Or is that the map types, coop & everything else is open?
or is the theme open and the maps have to be coop?

Think it means it needs to be a coop map, but the theme is open to whatever you want...

Thank you AssassinXaero, you are right, GAME PLAY is COOP and the THEME is
OPEN (meaning what ever you can come up with. Be creative .
P.S. Maybe I should re-word banner to:
JOIC COOP MAP CONTEST
Map Theme: OPEN
I can fix it very easily in banner
Thanks again THOR-LST

**TO ALL MAPPERS**
It has come to my attention, yesterday (my mistake, I forgot) we have quite a few servers that run the 1.6.9.2 version of IC, so for Compatibility
Purposes all maps should be made to play in 1.6.9.2 version, due to servers that still run the 1.6.9.2 . This way your maps will be able to play on
all servers for all players to enjoy . I hope this will not be a problem for you all .
Sorry I forgot about this
Thank you
THOR-LST

But that's just an exe, it shouldn't matter, unless you know something I don't?!

1 - the spawn of the "start player" (maker) is different, the player start in versions, exe.: 1.7.1.9 and 1.7.5.7, can be mounted on vehicles, which
would make a PSP mobile, if someone does a map with this intention for 1.7.xx it will not work in version 1.6.9.2.
2 - vehicles with PSP, it has by default auto-use when the player spawns on them in the 1.7.xx versions (like the DFX2) if the def. not been recast in
the mod, the player will suffer a glitch, like getting stuck the gun in a vehicle.
3 - WAC events as:
triggers:
piskills
pisteam
pisvar
actions:
AddExp
ammo2ssn
dropflare
pconsol
psetvar
ptext
pwave
appear to be unique to the executable 1.7.5.9, if someone can use them, and if she is directly related to the objective of the mission will map a
non-functional in version 1.6.9.2.
there are other compatibility issues, but are not so important.
so some servers do the update, and others do not!
sorry my english

Thank You for your response Eagle_Eye on
your post on: is there something we don't now on this ? (my question too) and Rickman on the codes and wac's that are not compatibable post. I just
want all the maps being created to be played on both exe. versions so all can enjoy them. So making the map in 1.6.9.2 should also play in 1.7.5.7. is
what I have been told.
I will be judging and testing the maps in a 1.6.9.2 server
THANK YOU AGAIN

I tried to play on your AW2 server the other day but got told my version was incompatible. Manged to get on the IC server no trouble, lol! Mind you,
can't stay on long with my connection anyway (moan moan, whinge whinge). Where does Rickman get all this imformation? I have this image of some
Brazilian scientist with huge glasses locked away in a laboratory deep in the rainforest!

Well, these are all new commands from DFX2, but, they work with JO and the new exe, so, people use them...
Just stick to the old commands you know, and you will be OK when mapping for the old versions..

Iceman, I would not drop out over that. I would still make the map and see if it plays out on the 1.6.9.2. If it does great, if not then you have a
great map finished to load up on DFR. I have played alot of 1.7.5.7 maps and I still run the 1.6.9.2 exe. It is just some of the new wac commands
don't work and occasionally the map wont finish, but it is still worth a shot. I would encourage anybody to keep in the contest, if this is the only
reason to drop out.

Ha! ha! ha!...LOL Spinney!...that was funny!
taking advantage of the post, to inform THOR, my participation in the contest: IC4, I promised him a long time ago some maps IC4 to the server
Thunder, and I ended up getting "owe" these maps, many problems in the head and I had to stop map, could not even make a decent map for the last
contest "Funny theme", this time I think I have time I'll try.
put my name on the list.
