*pokes third picture*

I just noticed how similar a AT-ST is to a scout trooper's helmet.....

Nice skin! I do agree with Nihillo about the chinpiece though.

well, i think the ATST skin is done, and i don't think i'm gonna change it...

On the other hand, the dwarspider droid's texture is really low res. I'm going to see if i can make a higher resolution texture for it..

Here are some shots of the clone wars.. right now I have ep2 troopers... They seem to be really under-used. The magna guard object has been replaced with a camo-textured battle droid.

Are you going to use the HD trooper, since it would look better on an already artistic map.

^^Yup :yes:

I thought, if you're going to use custom sides with the usual setup anyway, you might just as well use this, since it'll ad up nicely to good lighting and shadows.

Cool new pictures with the AT-ST's.

About the phase troopers.
I like them. It's always good to have them in a map :P
Most phase1 skins have more vareity than phase2 skins.

The model uses one texture ( its included in the d-load ) and the normal phase1 trooper skin.

It is made by RepSharpshooter, and it has the same UV'ing as the stock one. The only difference is bumpmap and more details that are actually modelled.

Really cool AT-ST skin! And I think the HD trooper will give your map a professional look, I highly recommend it.

I doubled the size of the Dwarf Spider Droid texture, and made it more realistic with more detailed textures and colors.

Here is a before and After:

The textures came from other SWBF2 vehicles, and the rust textures came from google images :google: I took aspects of the ATRT, ATTE, ATST, and snail tank and Photoshopped them in, over the original shapes, and i did a little manual brushing up :wink:

The level is 95% complete (just gotta do some testing and finishing touches - i might have a beta, how's that sound?)

I retextured the empire, rebels, and cis. Traditional sides though. *except for the addition of a battledroid, and changing the magna guard model to a normal bdroid

I also made a minimap, consistent with the shipped map style.

If there's still an open place, I'd like to be in too! The rebels look good, so you won't use the HD trooper?
