I have a question: I was trying to use a background from a map as my entities background. But had trouble getting it to work. Looked through this discord if people had asked before (ofc they did). Which had me check the %appdata% folder (called teeworlds), where I made sure my map was under maps with the correct name and still it wouldn't work. Then I noticed that the teeworlds folder I was looking in, did not show anything related to steam. So via steam I opened this file-folder, which indeed was different one (called ddnet), and now my entities background does work :D. Question: So even though I've always played via steam there are two different game-folders, why? And what goes in what folder? (e.g. skins/assets/bind-scripts I've always put in "teeworlds" and did work correctly)

teeworlds is only there for compatibility reasons, always use ddnet

if ddnet exists, teeworlds is ignored

Ah, I'll make sure to do that from now on :)

Another question, I use "toggle cl_showquads 0 1" for hiding the background of a map. Is there a way for this/something similar to hide the background, but instead of using the background color to use the background map (which I also use with entities)? thus whilst keeping the maps original blocks/entities :)

Hi several years ago i was playing ddnet with my friends on maps like multimap, aip gores, kobras and i remember one map but i don't remember the name. The map was for novice players and was made with default grass textures. I don't know why but i remebered it with the name "Aip race" but i couldn't find it. I tried connecting to random servers and checking maps by the look and i found out that map named "xyzyx" had some very similar parts like this for example https://i.imgur.com/bcjxJQF.png or this https://i.imgur.com/tWw7i8z.png do any of you know the name of the map? I would like to play it again after those years.

if you are sure it's novice: https://ddnet.org/releases/novice/ there are only 3 pages of novice maps
20:25
can't be hard to find
20:25
but could also be in oldschool or ddmax

I have already checked novice, oldschool and ddmax and unfortunately did not find this map

20:28

Well nvm I'm not skilled enough for what I wanted. And only looking at those 2 parts is... not enough for me. The second image is found in quite a lot of maps. And the first one maybe in some oldshcools¿? but afaik it's quite unique to xyz sry ^^'

Was it on ddnet?

do you mean ddnet.org? if so I don't know, but if you just mean ddnet as a game then yes, I remember downloading ddnet and it was literally the first map I learned to play on.
Avatar
ddnet servers, ddnet isn't really the name of the actual game, it's Teeworlds
22:26
DDNet is a branch of servers that focuses mostly on hosting the gamemode DDrace
22:27
You could've connected to a non ddnet server and played some maps
22:28
I would say "Tutorial" but that was made in 2022, and it's a solo map that you get more or less forced into when you first start nowadays

unfortunately I do not remember, I only know that it was on many servers both German and Russian servers so rather it was quite a popular map

I edited my post above with some more maps
22:30
Could be any of the "NUT" maps as well
22:33
If you remember anything else about the map, would help

I know the map I've played it before. I'll check tomorrow if I can find it 👍
22:37
There should be a version of it on Heinrichs archive
22:39
If you wanna search around yourself
Avatar
search for aip-race it should be there

from what I remember there was also a stage where such 4 lasers were going around in circles and you had to go around them and pass so as not to fall into the shade and be frozen (i don't have drawing skill xD)
Avatar
yea that's the map
Avatar
This is basically the solo map I mentioned earlier, I think I played this a long time ago.
Avatar
It's almost solo the first few parts have to be done with someone else afaik
Avatar
GHB_DDrace is a solo version of it ig
22:45
Kinda funny that ddnet hosts the solo version that probably came afterwards, rather than the original
22:47
22:48
I'd recommend Warch Comp as well, if you enjoy this map
22:51
Your drawing also reminds me of benrace

Yes this is the map thank you I was looking for it for an awfully long time and was already losing hope of finding it

Surprised you didn't mention that the first map I mentioned was 1:1 for the map you were looking for other than it being solo lol

I have memories of playing the non solo version, but they were replaced with the solo version because of ddnet, it's nice seeing the original again

Honestly as I look at it now I wonder myself how I could have missed that it is 1 to 1 this map. Apparently little sleep and fatigue led to this. Sorry for the confusion and thanks again for your help

No worries

Glad we could help you find the map
