EDIT: Only these two Links work! LINK GAMETYPE[/url[ PICS ARE NOW WORKING! Trapnesium is a rather inventive, creative map that I decided to make after playing Iraqui Tunnel(which sucks). In that map you would hope the zombie would run into obviously marked traps or you would hit a button to delay him(which would usually kill you in the process). So, I decided to make a map that like that, but with a twist. Trapnesium is an Infection game where the zombie tries to eliminate the humans with dumpsters, trucks, explosions and suicide paths/pits. All of these traps are activated by simple switches: Powerups and destroying one object to make a second spawn. Now, onto the pictures and an explanation of the traps. OVERVIEW(Of zombie's area): First off, there are some things that you will have to explain to your party during the lobby. First off, if they spawn as the zombie, there will be a grav lift(equipment) in front of them(A), they must pick it up. Then, they must throw it at one of the barrels behind the two fence walls in front of them(B). One or the other, it doesnt make a difference until the end. A B If they spawn as the humans, make sure they dont move at the spawn, there is a gap right in front of them. This is mainly to seperate the 8 year olds from the 9 year olds.(Human spawn is the fence box all the way in the front of the picture) The humans must jump across the gap and then one more gap, the second gap has a door in the middle that you have to land on, they jump across. The twist is that your gravity is at 150%. The majority of your party will die on one of those gaps. Next up we have my favorite trap! The wall of pallets(A). Dont worry theres nothing there to worry about(B). The trap is activated by the zombie destroying the propane tank(C). A B C The third trap is rather simple, a fusion coil that falls in a constant loop after activation(A). You have to time your run right and make behind the shield doors, or youll be blown off the edge(or lose most of your shields)(B). A B The next trap is just like the Wall of Pallets. You have to run across a bridge no strings attached, guarenteed(A). You can activate the trap by destroying the Grav Lift(B). A B The next two traps are activated by picking up a Powerup, which in return shoot out a dumpster. The final trap was activated right at the beginning of the round. Remember the barrels? Depending on which teleporter you unblocked, either the left or right entrances will be Death Doors! Unblocking the left door makes the left path unnaccesible and vice versa. If you happen to get teleported, youll be brought to where the barrel was unblocked.(Refer to the first picture) Congratulations! You won! Pick up a BR, Shotgun or Sentinal Beam and own the zombie(A)! Or pick up the rockets, no way does it teleport you to the FAIL BOX!(B and C). The teleporter circle thing brings you above the zombie's area, watch though, he can hide and use a deployable cover to make your life harder! A B C LINK Honor Rule: If you fall in one of the gaps or off the edge of the path, use one of the grenades provided to suicide(You wont lose a point) And last but not least, the gametype: Watch Out!.(This is off the top of my head, will include more when i have access to my Xbox) GAMETYPE LINK General One life per round No loss for Suicide No friendly fire Humans 110% damage resistance Spawn with Energy Swords 90% speed 150% grav White No radar No grenades Weapon Pickup ON NO SHIELD REGEN Zombies 150% damage resistance 50% Shield Regen 125% speed Wepaon Pickup ON 200% grav Spawn with Energy Sword No radar Purple GAMETYPE LINK Known Issues: Zombie using grav lift to break map Zombie hitting humans through the wall when at the Pallet Wall(If theyre hugging the wall) Humans not killing themselves and waiting 5 minutes until round end Truck temporarily blocking the path at the Pallet Wall All of my maps are unique in design. Originality is a must in a map, that combined with great aesthetics and a plan makes a map. Check out my four other maps, each of which have never been done before. The Carnival: A Ministhetic map that houses five different carnival games. Each is playable and is exactly like its' counterpart in real life. Milk Bottles: Step right up and grab yourself a power drain. Can you knock down the stack of barrels? Cone Shooting: With only three shots of your magnum, can you find the hidden gun under the sixteen cones? Test of Strength: Pick up a grav hammer and test your strength! Hit the wire spool as hard as you can and try to knock the soccer ball into the wizzing machine. Basketball: Three stickies for $2, three stickies for $2! Can you get two points?! Dunk Tank: Get up on the platform and grab a nade. Get it through the hole and knock down your guest! 2008 Foundry Olympics: Yet another ministhetic map comprised of three minigames all inspired by the Olympics! Not to mention a FULLY working torch, that you light just at the Chinese did in the Olympics! The torch even stays lit in a constant loop, no fusion coils used! Hurdles: Can you clear the teleporters while running around in an oval? What if you had 200% gravity?! Go around three times and see who is the fastest of your friends! Skeet: One man throws the tripmines into the cannons, the other snipes the little discs as they go flying by. Best of ten wins! Fencing: Grab a sword and try and hit your friend is this round of Epees! Feint, Lunge and Swipe! Trapnesium///☺\\\(Currently Viewing): The zombie has taken over the control board! Escape the streets and get to higher ground. Watch out though! The zombie has found out how to use the automated defense systems! The Jumps: The zombie has opened up two pits in the path! Jump to the other side, watch out though you have higher gravity in this alternated world! Wall of Pallets: The zombie has found the lever! Watch out for the truck that shoots from the wall, it might be your end! Loop Coil: Time your run and get behind the S.H.I.E.L.D.! The explosion keeps falling, it may push you over the edge! Grav Truck: Cross this perilous bridge carefully! The purple button might just send oncoming traffic your way! Trash Shooter: The red and blue buttons control the trash system. Seems the zombie has turned these dumpsters against you! Last but Not Least: Choose your path wisely! One leads to certain death, and the zombie chooses which one! The Door Room: One door brings you to another in this room of FFA madness! Grenades are everywhere and the explosions never stop! And get this! The chandelier has been replaced with a Rocket Launcher!
yea booby traps, about time I've seen an infection map with one in it. Now if only you could make a death machine so you don't have to go by the trust system.
Gametype link is broken. I like ur map. Its a little messy in places but you made some great switches and the entire concept of a zombie using traps to kill instead of attacking them with a sword. Very original and somewhat well made. Great post too. No problems with it.
I like the idea of the map. You could have spent more time on it making it look cleaner, but the fun of the map is what counts on theses kinds. It definitely looks fun.
thats creative its like duck hunt w/ a trap control board.... nice jod i recomand using wire switches too... google search them or h3artifciers or w/e but this is a nice map and very creative nice work
I had forgotten to mention that this map glitched on me like four times. I couldnt place any objects until i deleted enough to get below the budget(its a money glitch) then i had to save and quit around 100 times to make each item work right. So, I got a little lazy and did exactly interlock everywhere I couldve. The entire zombie area is interlocked or geomerged, though. The human's path isnt because im out of supplies on the map and interlocking it would make the pathways too short.
Very nice map. I must say that you took your time not in making the map but thinking it out. You should go to Forging 101 and look at certain teqniques. You have the ideas and thoughts now you need the knowlage and true skill. Nice map.
nice idea, i like the use of having a switch system to anihilate opponants and still give them a chance- Its like a Hobo Heights, but with more devious kills and the humans have a chance to win
Not taking my time to make the map? The map took me over 20 hours to make since it glitched on me. Aside from a few crooked walls nothing on this map is sloppy...
Sorry for the extremely late reply, Ive been tied up with schoolwork. I fixed the gametype link(sorry about that). Also, I am halfway done with a v2 which will include: Straighter Walls Completely Interlocked Path 3 New traps Better response time on most traps Death teleporters will be scattered around map floor for easier suicides Thanks for the downloads everyone
i love the idea. realy creative and unique. it would inspire me to make a map like it if i didnt suck at making traps lol
Well to be honest I don't really care for aesthetics much in a mini game map. Looks like I could have some fun playing this map.
this looks like a lot of fun, simply because the zombie activates the traps. it would be nice for you to provide pics of the zombies point of view, or a video of this game in action, but thats alright. The honor rule, i guess could be a little problem for little 9 year olds, but I don't worry about it that much. very creative idea, and maybe if you had enough, you could put teleporters on the ground that kill you so that you dont have to kill yourself.... idk just and idea oh and: the teleporter grav lift idea, AMAZING.
Thanks, I really did put some time into this map. Its reached 300 DLs making it my 3rd most DLed map(My sig has my other two). Also, about the v2, its been put on hold I have so many other forging projects and I keep dumping one for the other. What I'm work on: - "Halo Ween" map like trapnesium, only your a group of people trapped in a fun house and unknowingly activate your own traps - Rock Band map, currently a bit stuck on it. Its a completely geo merged 3-level stage with drums, mic stand, trap doors to bring you on and off the stage cleanly, timed events and a propane tank pyro-tech fire system. Basically its propane tanks in the front of the stand, hidden behind a box. When the singer takes his trap door it activates a fusion coil causing the propane tanks to go off, in which it looks like flames in such. This is the part I'm stuck on, the propane tanks keep unspawning. I also plan to add a catwalk above the stage, bleachers, and VIP room. - Getting to rank 50. Im currently a 43 in four playlists and im doing alot of each of them - A v2 of my top DLed map, The Carnival
wow i really like this one. like every one else said, nice idea good use a bit of polish in the look of it but over all really fun to play tried it with 5 people last night and it was super fun. 4.5/5
