ONS-Tropic-32p done & ready for fragging in

howdy!

some of you guys might remember me from the olden days of UT as ]LoL[hunter or [iam]hunter

if you do, you know i've always been a mappin fool, so after i got some requests to remake my year old ONS-Tropic and fix its bugs for 32 player matches, i dove right in.

here is what came out of my UE 3.0:

if you have a server that runs ONS-Tropic or ONS-Tropicnightfall, check this one out, because you'll probably swap this one out with them.

thanks!

thanks! yes, i put it on UP as well.

i made ons-tropic back in the day when there were basically no beach textures/meshes available. since the ece pak came i was able to update the appearance of the map with ons-islandhop's custom-tailored textures and meshes. dont worry though, i've made my own collision for those palm trees so they don't eat your vehicles and kill you

along with this and some heavy item balancing thanks to beta testing, its something i'd say is thoroughly polished. the horrible terrain-fall bug was sealed for good, along with some other annoyances (stick places for vehicles & humans). like i said, ons-tropic and tropicnightfall are basically obsolete after this...replace them in your map rotations with this badboy.

to make thread more interesting...
