For locals, you added tusken raiders, jawas, and wequay pirates. Don't you think thats alot of locals for a desert? I would just stick with jawas.

The B-1's beige color scheme is surprisingly functional as camouflage in the desert, so I don't think you'll have to do anything fancy. I'd say just throw some sand at the SBDs and you can call it a day. :thumbs:
Thanks Nihillo! I'm glad someone said that, as I'm not too fused about the CIS. Anyway, I've already given the sniper a new skin, so I may just do what you suggest. Or maybe throw the droid commando model in as well, and leave it at that. I can get carried away sometimes :faint:

Ok, the set up for the locals is actually not too bad, as they are unable to capture command posts, and are only in specific areas of the map. There will not be any close to command post areas, so you could engage in fighting them, or ignore them as you wish, therefore it has no effect on balance. The Weequay pirates will only be in the DTII era, so in the normal GCW/CW era it will only be Jawas near the sandcrawler, and a handfull of Tuskens, maybe six near the Jundland Wastes. I think the gameplay works out pretty well.

How could you have certain locals in a certain area? :?

Ah! that is the trick. Basically the locals are all custom units, so all I do is put "HOVER" in the odf's that defines their AISizeType, and then put a hover barrier around them in ZE.

This doesn't happen in the DTII era though, for obvious reasons.

You could edit them through lua with "SetClassProperty"...not sure what it'd do to online compatability though.

Ok, thanks Sky. I think I'll try that for the DT era unless Mav would prefer me not to. It's actually not much of a problem in the DT era though, as the main units have a lot more powerful weapons than the locals.

Edit: That worked, all the DTII Tuskens are now in their own little corner. :D

I didn't give a full description to you earlier, but how did you get those cool sand textures for the ground?

Also, an assets pack wouldn't be a bad idea! :thumbs:

I've had the sand textures for a while, so I can't actually remember, and the base color I made in gimp. I wouldn't release an assets pack for the simple reason the majority of assets are not mine, and are either from Sky216 assets or Rends, which are already available. I just skinned a few things, put together the sides (CodaRez/Deviss assets) and changed some colors. The world assets wont be released either, as it hasn't reached beta stage yet, and I probably wont anyway. Thanks for your interest, though :)

It all looks very impressive, just one thing - want a new crashed gunship or three? The one in the pic there is one of the first models I "made" in XSI and it's pretty bleh.

I've got another one of your gunship's but it's from the same pack, so please do, that would be great.

Thanks! I really appreciate it :D

Looks very good! :thumbs:
One suggestion: You could change the skin for the CIS sniper, so the color matches the sand.
