This map takes place on In the deep forests of the planet Amador.

-It will have custom sides for all 4 factions, but so far I've only done the republic.
All other work with mapping and other things are nearly done, exept for a few textures.

It looks a little bit dark.

Is the water Yavin 4/Kashyyyk deep, or will it make the game crash on certain computers?

You should recolor the bright green foliage the be a little darker.

holy cow! The water effects are incredible! What is your secret? You seem to have done a good job on this map here. I am waiting for it! Will there be bridges (preferably destroyable bridges)?

Nice sky and water. And kudos for mixing things up and changing the tree bark textures. Subtle changes like that can really make a difference in a map's visual appeal.

The map in general looks spectacular. Though one thing stood out to me, and that was the trees, not that editing the skins for the trees is bad but they seem a little too "varnished" i would do a quick go over with a minimal touch of grey. But that is just my opinoin.

Other than that it looks really good! :thumbs:

Don't forget to include where you got them from in the credits, if they're not self made. But the map looks very good with them, I agree.

This map looks really good! Good to see you making maps again yodakid. My only issue is that the object textures look unnaturally bright compared to the terrain, and the tree bark colour especially really stands out amongst the darkish terrain. I'm not sure if thats intentional or not but i don't really like that look. Oh and i like that pic of the sunset, you should make it the loadscreen.

No, there will not be any bridges in this map.

Most of the textures are self made, exept for a few ones and the sky, and those who made them will of course get credited.

And here is some new screenshots, you might notice some small updates.

Wow, that looks really great, kid. I am looking forward to battle in such a nice... tropical planet like that.

The depth is the root of that problem? I experience that issue (but only on Naboo out of the stock maps and I found a fix for that)

Interesting map. Is the resemblance of the clones to the commandos for the Old Republic trailer intentional, unintentional, or am I seeing things?

It looks good, I'm pretty darn picky about the maps I play, so I'm curious to know: What's the premise here? I haven't seen any of the Star Wars cartoons and outside of video games and a few bounty hunter bits I'm pretty shabby on the EU.

Propably unintentional, I just experimented in gimp until I found what I wanted.

Ehhm... well.. what do you mean? I don't get the word "premise".... :oops:

Yeah, It's not any deeper than Kashyyyk/Yavin 4 water.


Anyways, yesterday and today I added some custom effects, animations, and sounds, and next on to do is the Cis team.
I'll try to get a video up soon :D , and until then:
