Virmund: City (Betaing is in progress and closed)

Post by YaNkFaN »

So i was thinking....the battlefront gameplay system does not support vertical gameplay. But it does support diagonal gameplay. Now let me explain Virmund is a City literally built into the side of a mountain a lot like Minas Tirith from LOTR. It has 4 levels that are each respectively higher than the previous level. At the bottom is a lake with a few docks. Now in the pics it does look a lot like Naboo but I included a ZE pic to show that it is in fact not. I am not sure what sides to use but I would like some feedback and ideas for the level since I haven't seen anything like this before.


NEW PICS

And here it is pics....

It seems a little large, I might not have that last level and just cut it off after the third (instead of stairs going up, a building). Looks great, it is sad vertical game play can't really be done.

Ooooh. This looks interesting. I will definitely watch this topic.

One question though, are the stairs leading to each level only on the side?

it is big but not that big there's plenty of space for battle and the stairs sorta follow a zig-zag pattern so that in order to go up 2 levels you must go on the street in between them this was to keep the gameplay in the streets and not on the stairs also in the ze pic the last (top) level is not completed nor is the mountain the city is in

I'm pretty sure Bantha55 used a Flash Speeder in his Naboo map, but I also don't know where to get the files.

It's also in the assets that Teancum released recently (under DataHarKal_SWBF1.rar\Sides), though I suggest that you edit the ODF a tad, as the steering for it in the SWBF1 Pack was a little off.
