88th Co."Walking Death" - CTF mission pack and template v1.0

[ESM_LORD 32]

From the 88th Co. "Walking Death" eSports Club, we are proud to announce that finally the "PvP community of Arma 3" has a Capture The Flag (CTF) mode realistic and 100% operational by the work of our partner [88] Murcielago.

We would like to highlight that in the version used by the 88th Co. we have limited some of the news in order to be as competitive as possible and closely matches to the CTF old school.

If you want to enjoy all the new features of the original template as to kill with knife ,flag location on the map in real-time, positioning of team's peers and many more ... get in touch with [88] Murcielago through our forum: www.88th.es

This light Infantry version of CTF implements the following new features and changes:

• By capturing the flag you will get a "backpack" with corresponding flag printed on the same side.
  
• You can choose the flag / backpack from a total of 33 countries.
  
• The backpack can be released at any time if they want to pass to a teammate.
  
• This shall be for 1.30 min in the ground before it automatically returns to the mast.
  
• Weapons and limited accessories.
  
• Respawn zone in a protected area of immortality within 3m.
  
• Map's Code optimized to avoid slowness (LAG) on servers.
  
• ... and all the common features of a traditional CTF!
  

* More info: CTF MISSIONS FOR ARMA 3 BY 88TH CO.

Our new missions pack contains 15 CTF maps. Download link: 88 CTF - Mission pack and template v3.91

NO FATIGUE - Mission pack updatet v3.91

[Murcielago_ESP 3]

Good morning!

I'm very happy and pleased to share this hard job with you. It makes me feel a little bit embarrassed if I think on how many hours I spend on creating it, but quality has a price.

I'm here to talk about hard job... and how easy is to create a new Capture The Flag mission thanks to the CTF template! Yes! CTF Template. A mission folder has been included to allow users to create a new mission. This template will allow you to move the common CTF objects to your desired new location, then you can add the limits finally you can copy the rest of files from another CTF mission and it will work! For example the intro camera is created thanks to 3 objects. Currently 99% of the mission creation can be done only using the mission editor (To place the green and blue marker zones and to modify the “combat zone ring†you must edit the “Init.sqf†file)

Have fun and enjoy with us the pleasure of playing Arma 3 with maximum FPS and minimum lag!

[dr death jm 117]

this Is awesome Murcielago and 88lord I host all of Murcielago mission on my server, (BOOTCAMP).

I might just redo all my ctf to use the back pack ... its an awesome system.. thankyou for making your scripts public and sharing to comuinity.

[hades198 10]

hmm, looks excellent so far. Cant wait to try it out

[Murcielago_ESP 3]

Thaaanks!

It is hard to see that no one posted anything here or in the YouTube video!

I have a heart guys! ;)

It has been a complex heavy work! This CTF mission system does not have anything to do with Bohemia Interactive CTF system. Only making the textures for the backpacks took me some time but, that is what you need to do when you try go the extra mile... TODAY!

I let you know that we are having more CTF maps coming... and with updates!

. AUTOMATIC FLEXIBLE LIMIT system!

. New uniforms to make it even more professional/hardcore!

. Code improvements:

- No triggers!

- No eventhandlers!

- Only 2 public variables!

- New secret feature... ;)

- Team work! I do the codes and systems and [88] LORD and [88] Jeriko are making the missions.

All to achieve a hardcore CTF experience with MAXIMUM FPS and MINIMUM LAG!

Dear guys, if you are interested to use the CTF template please just wait... DO NOT USE THE SPHERES! There is no need as the NEW automatic limit system based on flags does everything! Just add the buildings and objects and I guess in one/two weeks I will be able to share the truly pure hardcore CTF system. The “non-hardcore†one will come later! ;)

I do not want to looks like coky but I hope people take some ideas and codes from the CTF system to make high performance missions for Arma 3. This is my new goal... I already made my dream come true by having an interview with Bohemia! I will ALWAYS remember it!

I'm happy helping people from teams that want to use the CTF system I created. In addition I will love to see people improving it with their ideas and/or helping me to translate to more languages!

The more feedback the more I will give you guys!

Please vote me to keep this crazy guy creating things for Arma!

http://makearmanotwar.com/entry/ZPHKLjsfVq#.U5t9Z_ldVqB

Look for the 88th Co. CTF server to contact us or just to enjoy a nice serious CTF match experience! Sometimes we try the new versions in public!

Any questions about the CTF mission system -> mgllgm@hotmail.com

Thanks for your time

Looks great :)

Good work :cool:

[giorgygr 61]

Guys the public Murcielago's "pack" or/and the tournament has the *new fatigue

and sway system enabled or disabled? (VERY curious)

[ESM_LORD 32]

Hi GiorgyGR,

yes is all enable. We dont change Arma 3 gameplay. Hope that in the future BIS want make the "fatigue" sistem more realistic and playable. It's a shame to see how a soldier is not able to run 20m without vomiting. In OFP, Arma 1 and Arma 2 the fatigue was perfect!

Although THERE IS a way to disable the damn thing..i dont

think changes made by BI in the future will be drastic-providing a nice balance.

I believe all community feedback about the "Fatigue&Sway system" has been done by people playing mostly (if not only) COOP's and SP.

I (as you) have spend thousands of hours in the "fast paced" side of ARMA with CTF's and TDM's

Concluding..

This Fatigue system is VERY good (i play COOP's sometimes)..but it shouldn't been NEVER enabled by Default and should have been placeable like the module on ACE mod back there.

I will ask you to consider talking with Murcielago about this.

Edited September 27, 2014 by GiorgyGR

[Murcielago_ESP 3]

Hi GiorgyGR!

About the fatigue not a problemo! I have a system to disable it! I will include in my own version.

I just need time.

[Leader 0]

Will we see an update to this pack?

• Pack of 15 CTF maps for Arma 3 at Altis and Stratis. They are limited to 28 slots, 12 for eache side and 4 for the TrackingCAM.

Thanks .kju for your great support ;).

[zyg0tic 12]

I've just started a 16 player Australian server running the ctfx_ctf2-quake.stratis mission. Will keep it up for a few days and monitor to gauge interest for extending to longer term.

The other mod I want to have servers for in Australia is BR but its restricted.

I used to play CTF mode of the game Vietcong and it was a lot of fun. Eventually I will try some of the other maps you have released... hopefully you have a jungle/forest setting in there somewhere.

[ESM_LORD 32]

Hi zyg0tic,

This week we going to release the last versión of our maps (v3.9). Please wait until sunday.

PS: If you want have some funny friendly match let me know and maybe we can arrange some 6 vs 6 match.

Best Regards
