Neomarz made the DC-15, and Deviss just changed the one area of the gun. All I did was slap it in my releases.

And depending on what carbine you used it may have been made by OOM-9.

About three seconds in, the first unit I tried (Nemoidian unit) had an awards weapons bug. I didn't go back to look for more since I'm not altogether too fond of having to restart my computer each time. Hero assault uses the conquest layer and has no load screen. It also has a jump height under the height of the map. Looks nice, could still use a bit more detail to the textures. Your big cliff model needs a lowrez model or it needs to be broken into pieces, because right now it's invisible at a distance, and that kills the appearance of the map at those distances. Don't think you had any ammo or health droids; they'd be nice on occasion.

Not sure if you know, or if it doesn't work for you, but usually you can ctrl+alt+delete out of the awards weapon glitch, happens to me all the time when testing.

I'm not unfamiliar with Windows operations; once Battlefront hangs on my computer I can't simply switch out with things like CAD or alt-tab. It's not a common problem, but it is an irritant for me and it's one reason why I'll always point out awards weapons bugs.

awww...too bad. Looks cool though. Where did you get the idea for the map from anyway? Lego makes blocks last time I checked...


I think a v1.2 is in order! Good job! At least you made your own models! Most people don't even bother!

wait. Is this some sort of star wars wiki? Cool. Anyway, I was wondering. Maybe in the next potential version, a duel mode could be in it (no force, just saber). That would be fun. Just sayin!

LOL Thanks for clearing that up! :funny2:

The map looks really nice, but a different sky would probably look better (just a suggestion). :thumbs:

-Thought u showed me a picture of a different sky?

-No localization for both Englishes (i believe it is UK-english)

-I assume u really want to use the lowrez model of the republic sniper. Just pointing it out, if u are I won't stop u.

All I got for now. I see not much was changed besides the base republic trooper and the neimodian being able to drop more turrets at once. Like I said before, its good, but needs polishing. :wink:

alright heres my report:
first of all you forgot to credit the creator of the sniperrifle and the DC-15s was made by SoM3
second: the commando droid is overpowered, hes invisible for quite some time, one shot drains about 2/3 of your life and he shots very precise
and why did you put neomarz's clonesniper in the map? the style doesnt fit the other clonemodels
but now to the map itself:
in heroassault you cant jump, is that intended?
most of the buildings have collisionproblems especially on the top:
Hidden/Spoiler:

Image
on the outer platforms half of the spawning unist runs straight off them motsly in the direction opisite to the bridges
Hidden/Spoiler:
Image
there's no real sky
the shadows are very big, thats not bad but in connection with the platforms overlapping etc. shadowvolumes it can look really weird:
Hidden/Spoiler:
Image
the canyonwalls disappear very often which results in strange transitions (on the right in this image), did you put "-lodgroup hugemodel" in the msh.option:
Hidden/Spoiler:
Image
and the colors of the spireprops is a bit too diverse in my opinion
Hidden/Spoiler:
Image
some spires are floating in the distance:
Hidden/Spoiler:
Image
i think its a good start but the textures and the environment (especially around the playable area) need improvement and maybe a more elaborated layout, maybe bigger mainplatforms with one or two enterable buildings

i hope this helps you making the map better :)

Sorry to take this slightly offtopic, but does that "-lodgroup hugemodel" in the msh.option file stop the model from ever dissapearing? If so, thats solved a big issue for me.

it tells battlefront to display the model still in big distance but it wont stop it from disappearing
i think you need a lowrezmodel to see an effect, but you always need a lowrez for such huge objects anyway

In my case i have a large object which the player is inside (indoors map), and the opposite corner of the prop fades out and you can see the sky in the very corner. Would i still need a lowrez model?
