hello GT

a short time ago i fixed my munging problem so now i can release maps

heres my project
Kothlis:Commando Raid
- this is based on the GC map from rouge leader but im not following it to a tee
for all of you who havent played rebel strike the map layout is an tropical island in which in the space battle above a Star Destroyer crashed and rebel commandos stormed the beach to take information from the downed destroyer with the help of Rouge Squadron (who destroyed all of the tanks ).

so for the map
it follows the layout of the area where the SD crashed with a main island with a bay-like area where the SD crashed the main Imp base, then the rebel transport where the rebels attack the Imps. also on the other side of the big island there is another rebel and imperial base and on the top part of the island is going to be a small bothan village. also some small islands can be seen from the coast

overall Progress: 95%
Lua stuff: 97%
Map: 99%
pathing (yay :cpu: ): 95%

Things to do:
add vechiles: x-wing TIE, AAc-1 AT-ST
Bothan locals:
Blend-out terrian some more :D
will need beta testers soon sign up while you can no beta's left :D :

Looks like a cool map, I like the idea of X-wings and TIE fighters on the ground... we don't have many of those. Any custom sides??

Oh and I would like to beta. :)

One thing i just thought of, some islands look a bit open. Maybe add SD chunks around sinse one crashed, and maybe some damaged fighters?

I considered making a map based off of this exact same mission from Rogue Leader (not Rebel Strike :wink: ); actually, I wanted to make most of the missions from that game for Battlefront, but decided it wouldn't work well at all because of the terrain sizes that would be needed and some other limitations. Anyway, it looks like you've got the basic environment down, so I look forward to seeing how it looks when the Star Destroyer is added. I'd be happy to beta test for you (I'm having some computer issues now, but they should be resolved within a few days).

For crashed starfighters, the easiest method is to turn the vehicle chunks into props. Just place the necessary .msh files in you world's msh folder, then create the corresponding .odfs in your world's odf folder. Some vehicle chunks have inaccurate or missing collision, but I know the TIE fighter chunks are fine.

Note that the Star Destroyer will look a lot more like the ones from the movies, not Bf2's deformed one.

Sorry to be critical but it looks a tad empty. Some cover would be nice to avoid snipe-fests.

Other than that it's a nice looking map!

to be honest i did take pictures of areas with little to no objects like the islands there in the background and arent really accessable from the mainalnd w/o a speeder so i didnt put a-lot of objects on them ill add some pics with objects in them now though :D

Just from looking at the pics, I would say it needs some serious blending the height work on the hills, and around the water.
