Ruuria: Jungle Ruins

Post by Locutus »

Ruuria: Jungle Ruins
Geonosis: Freight Dock | Bespin: Urban Canyon

I'm proud to present my second map: Ruuria - Jungle Ruins.
The map comes complete with radar map, loading screen, a fully functional AI and a special easter egg (If you find the easteregg please don't tell here;))

The map features conquest and XL mode for both eras (GC and GCW).

But this thread would be meaningless without screenshots, so:

If you play conquest mode I'd recommend setting AI count to 32 to have a more pleasurable gameplay.

Please comment! :D



This map on:
ModDB | SWBF2 Files | Dropbox | WIP-Thread

-- Download! --



Update: The map is now part of the The Old Republic era mod from Delta-1035!
Just download his mod and the new era will become available on this map.

The map comes complete with radar map, loading screen, a

Map: Ruuria - Jungle Ruins (JR5)

Author: Locutus ([email protected])

Modes: Conquest (GC and GCW)
XL (GC and GCW)

If you play conquest mode I'd recommend setting AI count
to 32 to have a more pleasurable gameplay.


================================================================
     2. Installation
================================================================

Put the JR5 folder (which includes this ReadMe) in your Addon
folder in your Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData directory.
If you don't have an Addon folder simply create one.

By default it should look like this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\LucasArts\Star Wars Battlefront II\GameData\Addon\JR5

To uninstall simply delete the JR5 folder.


================================================================
     3. Known Issues/Bugs
================================================================

XL mode does not work in multiplayer.

Sometimes the AI has trouble when walking below the bridges
but after some seconds they will move on.

Interesting use of the Rhen Var ruins in a jungle environment... I get so used to people spamming Yavin props or using hardly any at all.

I know that XL crashes in multiplayer but it should work in singleplayer.

I'm close to the object limit in ZE. I think it's the same issue as with some of the ConvoPack maps, try playing this map as the first one in the row.

Tried XL again, didn't crash. I think I found the easter egg but probably not.

This is probably my favorite map right now. :D

i get finally my BF2 working again and i tested the map...
it is AWESOME, i like it so much :bowdown:
the object placing is cool, nice using of the Rhen Var assets, the jungle looks verry nice and the river is beautiful :faint:

so all in all a great map, only thing to complain about this map is that there are no custom sides, but it is a great map, so it doesn´t matter too much :D

It's just soooo awesome. I love this map, and it will stay forever in my addon folder. The other thing that makes me happy is that someone made a jungle map without using yavin assets. Thank you for gracing the SWBFII community with this fantastic map.
