Announcing -- Endor: After The Battle

Jetsi · Post by **Jetsi** » Fri Nov 11, 2005 3:26 pm

My first map!!!!!!!!!!!!

Should be ready within a week for beta release.

Here is the description in the readme:

While battling for the second Death Star, the capital ship you were on sustained major battle damage and made a forced landing on the forest moon of Endor. You and the few survivors have established a base camp and a forward perimeter around the wreckage.

Scouts were dispatched, and have completed their initial reconnasciance assessment. Their findings were:

1. The surrounding terrain is hilly, and covered by a dense forest and ground foilage.
2. There is an enemy capital ship that has also crashed onto the lunar surface approximately 1,500 meters away. Enemy activity has been observed, but there is no specific threat assessment as to their numbers, or their offensive and defensive capabilities.
3. There are two small villages located closeby, created by a currently unknown but slightly sophisticated indigenous creature.

You have managed to recover some light assault vehicles from the wreckage of your capital ship to assist you.

Find the enemy, engage them, and finish them off.

It is a big map, and I am currently working on finding the right balance of vehicles (no starships), and tweaking the AI.

And as a total aside, just how do I upload the map onto gametoast? I have done a search and can't find any answers, nor can I find any place to do an upload. Probably just looking right past it, but any help would be appreciated.

You need to ask Guru to upload it

Thanks Trans, sent Guru a PM and am waiting to hear back.

In bad form, I didn't put any screenies up, so here are a few.

Enjoy

What's with the green?

Thats SPTest. Basically hes takin screenshots from a program that tests your map and tells you whats wrong. Looks nice so far.

Thanks, I need the positive input right now LOL.

Seems everytime I do some work to it, I take two steps forward and one back.

As an aside, I thought the green was supposed to go away in freecam mode, but it didn't happen, so I just took the pics third person.

Still shootin for a beta by Thursday.

This is my first "map". I made another one that I based off of America's Army SF Hospital level, but in that one I just figured out how to put all the pieces together, and haven't done much with it.

I will try and post some pics without SPtest in the near future.

Why is the CP's hologram yellow, on your last capture ?

Blackcurrent · Post by **Blackcurrent** » Wed Nov 16, 2005 1:46 pm

maybe cause there is an NPC faction here...ewoks maybe

Leviathan · Post by **Leviathan** » Wed Nov 16, 2005 1:57 pm

Or a bad setting in the map's *.LUA file(s)...

I think you mean to reverse that, the saying is; "One step forward, two steps back".

Anyway it looks pretty good and pretty large. How many troops are you planning on having spawned at a single time? Standard or more? Or less?

Nah, with 2 steps forward I was at least makin progress

.

There are ewoks at 2 CP's, so you are capturing their CP.

Seems the map is VERY VERY big. So it may get shrunk a little bit, maybe lose a couple perimeter CP's. Still takin feedback.
