[QUOTE=Nacon;12857206]I would like to make a suggestion to Cube. Pen and Notepad! It may need experienced Lua scripter for this though. Of course, anyone can do this outside of the game in real life, but the sole idea for this is to help others to see what you have kept track of. Not asking for a super realistic drawing like in PhotoShop or some shit. MS Paint-like effect is fine, whatever. It should be equipped like a weapon, should lock the screen in place and mouse movement become a drawing pen. Hold left-click to draw. Right-click to erase. Wheel-scroll to flip through pages of a small hand size spiral notepad. If you died... others would be able to pick up your notepad and read your progress and make changes or add if he/she like. You can also drop it to pass onto someone else.[/QUOTE] Why not just use the RP Writing thing, It's not as detailed and it won't work for pics and shit. But, it could work for now.
Loved, the movies, all of'em.Finally found a server that was smooth.Got out three times within 30 mins though.Maybe a little bit more of a challenge, a few more traps (the rooms need more traps, at times I could go straight in one direction and not run into a trap until I hit the edge). The notepad idea is good, but I think small items that you find along the way would be cool. Perhaps a moral system, if you witnessed people die it would do -10 points to moral, if you get past one +2 points. If you witnessed a trap go off -2 points, etc. Also, if you can, redo the outside part, so people without hl2 ep2 textures can experience the joy of escaped.
Disseminate great work on the gamemode, I felt like watching all 3 movies AGAIN after playing, really brought it to life. But, it could use alot of work! It took me a while to figure it out, but it's EXTREMELY easy to get out once you realize it. The only time it takes after that is just waiting for the moving cubes to shift to the exit. I can now after only a couple hours playing find the exit within 5 minutes + no deaths + no running into traps. So I do suggest making it more difficult in the terms of it's not always the same, either more rooms shift around, or maybe shift the traps around the rooms so to make the paths different each time (within a certain amount of time, the traps are shifted into preset positions out of several possible positions). Something like that, good luck with it, great gamemode!

[QUOTE=SaltyPeppr;14639297]go buy ep2 also.. you do know that he didn't make this map right?..[/QUOTE] Wow easy for you to say "go buy ep2" I'm 16, and there are no VISA/mastercard or other cards for my age to use in the internet stores, no way to buy it, plus it changed to euro in steam so commanding people to buy ep2 is lame.

Try manually downloading the gamemode from garrysmod.org. That's what I did.
Hi, I'm hosting this gamemode temporarily at 89.238.160.26:27018, a 12-slot server in the UK. This server has fast downloads by the way. EDIT: No longer active.
Any map makers that heres that could make a few modifications?
i played this and there was one thing i hated about it and thats players can push you in to a room
Hey guys im hosting this gamemode/map at 193.200.158.168:27028 [UK] Violence Fetish Community: Escape The Cube No extra addons or any more downloads just the game, smooth 100 tick server 20 slots so theres always room for one more, up 24/7 enjoy.
[QUOTE=credesniper;14650994]Any map makers that heres that could make a few modifications?[/QUOTE] Me and my friend Itachi could, but what modifications do you need?
That video on the first post is brilliant.. i laughed so hard.
whats the objective of this gamemode?
what should the server.cfg look like when using this gamemode?
You're wrong with saying to buy EP2. It's better for gamemode if more people can play it.
Hey, Gamemode looks pretty cool, but I’m having trouble getting it working. My problem is similar to AndyTheGeeky’s issue back on page 1, where I can see the map in my map list, yet the cube gamemode does not appear in gamemodes, in single player or multiplayer. I’ve since tried a number of things like clearing out my addons folder and reinstalling gmod, and I’ve tried every previous version of the addon form of the gamemode, however my efforts have produced little in the way of results. Any ideas as to what my problem might be?
Gamemodes go in the "gamemodes" folder, not the "addons" folder.
[QUOTE=subenji99;14737411]Gamemodes go in the "gamemodes" folder, not the "addons" folder.[/QUOTE] Yes I did have some success just placing the cube folder containing the gamemode data in the gamemodes folder – however when I ran it, several features were missing and I was able to noclip. I assume that the main cube folder out of the zip file goes in the “addons” folder since it has an info.txt containing "AddonInfo" at the top and not "Gamemode" – correct me if I’m wrong. It’s strange too since the map with all its textures and sounds works fine from the addons folder – but I just can’t see the gamemode
In fact you are correct - gamemode is supposed to work entirely from the addons folder but it is not, and when the gamemode part of the addon is moved to gamemodes, it's acting like sandbox despite no errors in the console (except a couple of resource.AddFile lines). Will just have to hope Disseminate still reads this thread. :P
Glad to see it wasn’t just me :)
I got bored of this. Though, this gamemode is making me watch the movies ;)
[QUOTE=polishman45;14696329]You're wrong with saying to buy EP2. It's better for gamemode if more people can play it.[/QUOTE] But EP2 is a later engine version, so better graphics and such. it's just all better. plus the big strider battle at the end? Man, can't beat the experience of that!
Sorry for the bump. But does anyone know any online Cube servers?
Nice gamemode, will try this out :) I loved the movie
Brilliant. Now try building a Tesseract in Source for a Hypercube gamemode. I would love to see this rendered in source: [img]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/55/8-cell-simple.gif[/img]
O_O That would be impossible because we don't have the 4th dimension required to do it this shows to a better effect of how we can only see in 3D not 4D [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C7aeSGrUrKU&NR=1[/url] Though something that gives the same effect as the cubes in the second movie would be do-able. Still, i prefer it how it is. Apart from the fact there should be a larger variety of traps. The third movie reveals that every room has a trap. So... Put a trap in every room. Then tell it to randomly turn some off and some on at the start of the game. Hey presto! dynamic game-play! Though I'm not denying that would be incredibly difficult and time consuming to do...
I just saw the first movie and it was great, though it was on tv, where can I watch them online? (The sequels)
I bought Hypercube at JB-HIFI in perth last year :D if your after the movies Electronic Media UpLoad Experiment that allows you to see them
