Oh ok If you have the >Star Wars episode 3 the video game< that would help

There are not may pics of this but all I know is that you can see the senate building from there... You could porbably just take some background buildings from pics to make this...

Palpatine's Office is in the Senate Building. I didn't know this until I saw Episode III. However, I don't think the CIS attacked the Senate Building because that's where everyone was when Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Palpatine arrived. They wouldn't be there if it was under attack or had been attacked.

What if the story was that this was the plot to abduct palpatine? Although I don't think thats how Grievous did it.

Don't fret about the stroy though rends.

isin't there a street (aka huge canyon) in the back of the senate building? and the chancellors chambers are a few levels under the lowest senatorial suites, with a few windows looking out onto the little alleyway (huge-Diet Dr. Pepper street for us) lol

Metal On

Palpatine has two offices, Rends needs the second one. The first, where the Yoda/Palp fight starts, is in the senate chamber. The second, where Mace is killed, (also the one with the red interiors) is in another dome shaped building that, while looking similar to the Senate building, is not the big mushroom. If I remember correctly, there are also ships parked all along the edges of the dome. I am looking for a pic of it as I type this.

In the movie you can see the Senate building in the distance. You can see the resemblance in the two buildings, but the smaller dome is where Palpatine's main office is, and where Mace was killed.

Qoute: "Palpatine's Office is in the Senate Building. I didn't know this until I saw Episode III.

In the clone was cartoon grievous goes there, it doesnt really get 'attacked' unless you consider grievous braking in an attack XD lol
If you see the clone wars cartoon, then you will see that when grievous goes and captures palpatine there is a huge battle there. Maybe that could be the story
then you play BF2, which is the battle above Coruscant :D

I wish it were easier to make detailed buildings like this (heck, I wish it were easier to make maps for this game!), there'd be so many great maps out there right now. I think the great technical challenge of mapping Battlefront stifles the creativity that I'm sure a lot of players wish they could use in maps for this game.

How in the galaxy did you make those windows Rends?? That's unbelievable considering what goes into making a map. And it looks like you might have a bot-pathing challenge on your hands, what with the rooms and all.

I'd consider doing this (modeling) too, but it would require learning a whole new set of complicated tools, and I just dunno if I could go through that again.

Yes Rends, I suggested I putting in an elevator. Ask the Saturn labs crew to make it as a vehicle.

It could simply be a thin rectangle, in the gunship flyer category. It could be put in a shaft slightly bigger than it is, and be made invincible(just incase the driver desides to try and crash it into the wall)

I think there is a better way to do this though.

Nice work... the building models are excellent. I'm not sure if this was mentioned, but if you decide to add locals(considering the map size), you could add http://www.starwars.com/databank/organi ... ds/eu.html

oh no it won't die unless Rends stopped working on the map...which he wouldn't, and anyways mappers can't just produce new stuff everyday...
