Month: December 2008
Want your map in Suicide Survival 1.1?
If yes then finish your maps as fast as possible. Because release 1.1 is nearing a complete state very fast. It will probably released in the next few days.
Also note we will only include finished and balanced maps.
So fire up Hammer, get your maps done and post them on the mapping board.
Hotfix for “mapversion-differs”
If you get the error: “mapversion differs” or something like that when trying to join a server who is running ss_garden, re-download the map pack.
I was under the impression the server would send you the newer version of the map if you already have it. Guess I was wrong, sorry about that. ss_garden is the old version. ss_garden2 is the newer version with some fixes.

The guy from podcast17.com talk a bit about Suicide Survival. You should go and check it out.
Suicide Survival Map Pack released
I finished two more maps and fixed some small issues on ss_garden.
ss_greenFog
A simple map with fog and lesser shrub placement to make the game a bit easier for Survivors.
Recommended players: 1 – 5 per team
ss_superGreen
This rather small map was originally used for testing purposes. However I finished it and I still think its good fun. Spawn and ammo placement is pretty random tough.
Recommended players: 1 – 2 per Team
ss_garden
The famous ss_garden map. Its pretty well balanced and also the map I worked the most on. Including the famous greenhouse and the hidden camper spot.
Recommended players: 2 – 8 per Team
Download the map pack (3 mb) and leave some comments on the forum.
Suicide Survival – Youtube video
Halcyon670 made a short video explaining the game and posted it on Youtube. Check it out:
Suicide Survival featured on ModDB.com
Today only two days after release Suicide Survival got featured on ModDB.com.
I must say I’m pretty amazed by how much people like this mod. And of course it makes me very happy to see other people having a blast with something I created. I already have some ideas and fixes in mind which will get released in the near future.
In the meantime enjoy booking and sneaking. If you want to help this mod check out the forums or make a dedicated server or a map. There are tutorials here for both of it.
And of course dont forget to listen to the Modcast on ModDB.com
Lastly here are some pictures from the day I released the mod. All the students from the 3th semester came to play what we created in the last two months. Needless to say they had a blast playing Suicide Survival aswell.
