This topic is just for random DS screens.

Anyone can post DS shopts in this thread (so far this means just Maloss releases). If anyone wants an explanation for something in a pic, ask.


So, to start:

WIP Ark Sin: Penal Colony (formerly tatooine suburbs by mswf - gameplay is very good) Just a nice shot from Kadrala. Note impractical legion + non snow hailfire at time of this shot.

Nice work. I'm looking forward to seeing my map with a better environment.

Nice work indeed. mswf's Tatooine is hardly recognizable not that that is a bad thing. Good work to you both. Don't worry, Sky, I haven't forgotten about that snow legion. Just for(?) Kadrala, which is looking great by the way.

The Ark Sin pic wont load on my computer. But nice Kadrala pic!

EDIT:
Nvm, working now. Nice improvement. Since it seems to have such great gameplay I'm gonna give it a download.

It's amazing what some skins, different sky and lighting can do to a map. I'm impressed, that map is (as AQT said) hardly recognizable.

And Rhen Var too. Wouldn't have requested one if it was just for one map.


Ark Sin is far from done....I haven't added the foliage yet. (Had to re-export it because of collision mess ups). Also found an old map of mine that is very similar to Ark Mion....

I totally agree. I'm going to focus on the environment more in a (maybe) future map of mine. But I'm glad Skyhammer liked it's gameplay

same

it looks good with the lighting, and nice skins.

Screens of the new Ark Mion will be up soon. Its got a more dry environment (hills with lakes/rivers rather than islands), has similar trees, and the central area of the map has a big tribal/feudal burial mound.
As a nice extra, the burial mound's interior (made in XSI) can be explored just for fun. One of the two burial chambers deep inside it (random) heals you, one has a monster.

Sounds neat. Can't wait.

bobfinkl's Coreillia (LD era):
great map.

Looks very nice, but the blur seems a little excessive.

Ya, same here. Nice shots, btw.

The blur was always like that, and in my opinion it's perfect; the blur makes you... feel... that it is raining, go play stock Kamino and you will see what I mean, in Kamino you won't even notice or care about the rain.

I know it's there for that reason - I do the same thing in my maps. I just think it could be toned down slightly.

I know it could be toned down a little but since it caused no lag that I knew of and it looked really good I just kept it, and also Skyhammer is getting the source files for the map so he can tune it down if he wants to.

Just some random stuff....

New Geonosian blaster fx:


More Coreillia

Wow, nice geo blaster fx!

That's a very good effect, but I prefer the stock one (it's more accurate).

Whoaw, cool shots Sky.
