Lotashi Z: Y Province

HI all, this is my newest map, Lotashi Z: Y Province. A "sequel" to Lotashi Z: X Province. It's basically another location on Lotashi Z.

This time I made a lot of use of the Rhn glacier objects, which are almost never used in SWBF modding because they lack a texture in the shipped assets.

The map itself is pretty cool, if i do say so myself. It's not flat. There is an upper section and a lower section, connected by slopes and a detailed interior.

It's currently almost finished, but I still have some final object placement changes and I am having a lot of balancing issues.
Have a look at the screenshots!

Wow. Those screens are insane! How did you make it look so authentic and realistic? It almost looks as if it is a small model in this picture.

One question though - how did you get the bluring effect around the edges of the screen?
Amazing work as always. :thumbs:

You know, nasty words. :P
