Hey, guys, how to install this? Because when I copy GEE to Add0n and I start the game there is not a map called GEE. Maybe I must chose Geonosis? Help me.

Thats weird. Every thing is named for me. What language are you using?

Post some screens i'd like to see.

As for boundaries, im not really sure how they work, is it possible to have them simply boxing the map in, or must it be a single boudary?

I never crashed at all. Thats weird that that happens to you guys. I got and fps of about 80, and im playing on max settings. Maybe ill release a version that doesnt have fog.

As for unbalanceing, yeah i know. Im going to redo the planning, as people often bunch up in areas (republic lz, and both capital ships) also the at-te is way to weak.

Rapid firing laser?
"...it was also equipped with a long range medium-powered laser cannon."
Thats from wikipedia, which has always been accurate.

Show me another source and ill change it.

Edit:

Also wookiepedia has it as a laser, nothing rapid-fire.

Well ill keep researching.

Since this is a beta i didnt put a readme.

Just extrat the folder GEE into the addon folder, which resides in the gamedata folder, found in your Battlefront 2 directory.


As for 404 File Not Found, im going to rezip a more current version and upload it. Bear with me.


Also penguin once again can you send me some screens of the bugs im curious to see this error.

By the way, Jabiim-map link doens`t work too. I think Filefront has troubles again. Be patient, man (and ladies :)).

Yeah I just checked on my filefront count and this map is gone - as if it was deleted.

Filefront geez.

Dont fret im working on compacting the size so i can put it somewhere else

The rar is set up like every other map. Simply extract GEE into the addon directory like you would any other map!

Wow, awesome map PvtParts! Aside from the AI pathing (which needs some serious tweaking), and the fact that the names don't show up (I use the UK version), there really doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this map. I love all the detail on this course and the hugeness of the map. I can't wait for more! :D

PS: I just love this crushed ATAT ^^

PPS: Also, if you want a video for this course (I have the full version of FRAPS), then just ask.

something must have went wrong when i downloaded this file.

Looks like savefile is the new best place to host mods/maps.

I know and I would have used that. What I didnt tell you all is that this map is like 168 mb.

Thats why I have to cut down the size, so I can upload it somewhere better - FileFront is the only place that supports an upload that big.

No no its not right. And sorry about that. Within minutes of me uploading it to filefront, it disappeared (its even gone of my filefront account)

But i've made some improvements in balancing and added flyer slines, and took a series of videos that totals about 20 minutes.

Ill release the videos as a zip asap, and once i get my splines working to a level im content with (the flyers follow them, but once they get to the next node they freeze, then pick up speed again, i think it has something to do with acceleration) i will release the updated map

Update: Compiling now, just gotta upload and you guys are set. I havent managed to get sounds working without crashing the map (if anyone wants to take a look at my stuff ill send you everything...) and I cant manage to get the flyer splines to look reasonable. but oh well, ill figure something out, just expect some goofy piloting from your comrades, and an occasional suicide attack on their own capital ship.

Back to Geonosis: Landing.....wait no first im having a peice of cheesecake.
