Sven Co-op Map Database

yeah, the model was causing the crash. I decompiled it using the scientist0x.mdl files, then recompiled by merging the scientist and eraft SMDs.

It turns out not all of the model is there- what I mean by that is there is the animation files associated with the model are absent

Whats causing the crash is likely when the game tries to use an animation that doesn't exist it just shits itself and dies.

I checked the content pool to see if this model was reused anyways and bad news is there isn't, so the rest of the files cannot be recovered.
The only way to fix this is to get rid of this model entirely and have the scientist use default or some other model.

It's baffling though, the -T.mdl file is there which the mapper remembered to include…

To remove annoying retarded sounds create "Dial_A_For_Arson.gsr" in the same directory as *.bsp file
Open it with notepad and insert the following text :
"sfx/0_001.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_002.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_003.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_004.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_005.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_006.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_007.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_008.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_009.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_010.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_011.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_012.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_013.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_014.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_015.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_016.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_017.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_018.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_019.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_020.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_021.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_022.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"sfx/0_023.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"
"Dial_Arson.mp3" "scientist/_comma.wav"

Now open Dial_A_For_Arson.cfg and add the following line
globalsoundlist "../../maps/Dial_A_For_Arson.gsr"
(if you do not have "Dial_A_For_Arson.cfg" create one.)

You can now also comment "//" or remove sounds from the *.res file (40 megabytes for 11 minute music track !)

Overall map is somewhat boring.. ure usually have to kill enemies with high health pool with sniper rifle. As well as, containing some cheap deaths due to crapola level design..

There are some serious flaws, but the concept of rising lava/poison is something that I would like to see explored in more maps.

please re-post the map properly when/if it is ever a functioning SC map. currently this broken and neglected map does not really deserve have a place here. page is being deleted.

please do not use SCMapDB as a dumping ground for unfinished mapping attempts. work in progress is highly encouraged, but you need to publish and present it properly. page is being deleted.

yup.. one remark from me ..
RPG is on the top of the shack where rpg rockets are..
Ive spent some decent amount of time finding actual RPG…

Fun, but low amount of enemies makes it kinda boring..

If you want really bad english texts and invisible walls stopping your progress every 2 steps in really small rooms then this is your map.
In its current state this is unplayable.

strange, ive just finsihed the map by touching white wall inside mines…

use this as a base for your own ripent.. map is almost empty and can be finished in 2 minutes.

you, tested map please

A map with weird *_skl.cfg… Shotgun kills everything like its noone else's business, Apache that kills you in 1 shot w/o armor. Snipers that have 0.25 seconds to pinpoint their accuracy to you, and so on..

And ofcourse, i have to address this.. If you have ONE osprey or apache on the map DO NOT hardcode its health values into entity, instead leave its health to be configurable by the said *_skl.cfg.
I honestly dont understand this logic, you already knew that apache's health can be changed via CFG. Why hardcode it ?

Anyways.. all it took me, is to remove "health" "30000" key/value pair from the entity properties, and then i simply specified its health to 5000 in *_skl.cfg. Stuff like this just baffles me.

Being annoying at times with enemies spawning behind you.
Or spawning too many enemies to fight for one player.

Description was a mess of words that made no sense. I tried to make sense out of them after playing the maps and managed to translate it the best I could.
Also here's a walkthrough of the maps:

Objectives/Walkthrough (people can miss these)
sc_wilkes: Just shoot everything and win
sc_wilkes_b1: Go into the room with the scientists and break the computer next to them, then grab the red key that drops to open the small door to the elevator. Go down and find the keycard to the second door that is on top of a pitch black box. Then find yet another keycard next to a flashlight and a barney corpse in a dark room, then reactivate the power to the building and grab the dynamite (red stuff) nearby. Bring the dynamite to some barrels that are under the stairs.
sc_wilkes_c2: Just shoot things
sc_wilkes_d3: You can break a small piece of the cell wall to bring your teammates to the last cell which has a breakable vent. Grab guns and painstakingly shoot terrorists that constantly respawn, but try to ignore them, push the buttons you find, then break the black hangar door, use the radio to open the next hangar door, and get the explosives from the small room you open with another button inside another small room next to it. Go back to where the cells are and go into the door on the catwalks next to the cells you had to visit to push a button somewhere inside. Find some barrels in a room and use the barrels to arm the bomb. The end.

My friend says "I had fun" and I also had fun so obviously that means you'll have at least a 98% chance of enjoying it. The changes to make the story make sense with Sven Co-op was super cool. It was exciting getting reinforcements here and there and fighting super bosses. The only boss that was kinda weird and annoying was the tunnel snakes. But other than that, we had a blast all the way thru. Also unless you're extremely careful, you'll die a lot. Live and learn. As long as you try to enjoy yourself during it, the deaths shouldn't bother you. They sure didn't for me and my friend, and we were on the hardest difficulty. We just found the few instant death traps comical.

A map with very hard and elaborate puzzles. Not for an average player.
Puzzles need more hints. Finding secret spots is very hard unless you use noclip.

And yes no ending at all. You just navigate into an area with barricaded double doors. And thinking that its a part of some other puzzle, while its not.

No idea who put 4/5 on this.

(also Ukrtelecom blue payphone made me giggle a bit)

It was tedious at times, but overall i liked it.

I had to do the same thing. As well as replacing transition to 'uplink' with "game_end".
I dont want THIS to be related to valve in any way possible..

Its one of those annoying ones. That spawn enemies behind your back..
Also secrets are extremely hard to find.. i had to use bspviewer and ripent to figure out all secrets…
