[u1][ut][released] French Level Pack

Post by yrex . »

Title: French Level Pack
Platform: Unreal 225, UT

This is to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Unreal, and especially UDC (Unreal Design Contest), which was the first serious Unreal level design contest.

Back in 1998, some special editions of Unreal had an additional CD in France, that had an exclusive map called "votlan" which was itself based off a pre-release Vortex2 but played backwards. After finishing the map, you were directed to a website where you could download more content, mostly made of entries for the UDC.

The website was in French, the votlan map was originally in French too, all approved by the French GTI -- hence the name.

All maps are remastered and there's also new weapons and stuff from the alpha Botpack.

We intended to test this more, but we wanted to release it in August, to coincide with the 20th anniversary of the contest.

There are some small differences/extra features on 227.

Turns out one of the Inter levels had a package flag set to never download.

Here's a patch to remedy that. It's a simple flag change.

Additional extra/alternate map released:

flotsamcombo

consider it an alternate universe version

moddb
https://www.moddb.com/mods/french-level ... ed-version

This is a combined/custom version of flotsam that jackhonda combined on my request from the version found on the complete gamer expansion pack compilation cd. This was also the version corresponding more or less to the old xanaweb screenshot that featured the allied mercenaries (which wasn't clear that they were allied).

apparently also the palette issue for spacefx didn't need to be fixed as demonstrated here but given he only released the fix in 2020 I guess it was still good there was a fix for the map in question that added its own palette as opposed to using the spacefx texture one.
