Off-Topic : That's a shame, Aksel3...

On-Topic :

Okay, fellow players, here is some updates on the map!

Reskinned Biker Advanced Recon Commando Speeder:



I'm working on this one, the crashed Low Altitude Assault Transport...



Comments?

Looks good so far.

When you say this is a "speeder" map, does that mean speeders are the only vehicles we can use?

If you take vehicle reccomendations, I'd reccomend the ISP ( Infantry Support Platform). It would blend in well with the Hoth environment.

yeah , how did you find the vehicule names ?

BTW , the blue Low Altitude Assault Transport is beautiful

Nice LAAT and BARC speeder Linus. Make sure to remove the jungle-y bits from the LAAT and put some snow on it instead. Some smoke coming from it might be a nice touch as well.

The ground looks too bright and you should add in some other textures too. Like everyone else said, alot of cover would be sweet. I think it would be cool if you made like a ground battle and then had a tunnel battle going on as well.

this is very nice, aspecially the first clone trooper ,
this i would like to ask: have you been able to put the AT-TE in the map?

second: are you going to put in the MTT? if so you should skin it to give it a snowy look, that would be cruel.
btw you're probably going to reskin the CIS droids so I would like to suggest to give them also a snowy look:)

I am doing that! Didn't you understand my question? They show up one time in-game, when I've taken it/destroyed it, it won't respawn... I hope you understand now.

I'd reccomend going HERE

...The second parameter specifies how many of these vehicles you want to spawn from this vehicle spawn. I recommend always keeping this set to 1, and just add more vehicle spawns if you want more vehicles at a given CP....

you should color the snow in black around the crashed laat no? 'cause of the fire...stupid idea or not? ^^

Snow doesn't burn, t3tine, it melts. Do you live in Hawaii or something? Besides, it snows so regularly on Hoth that the burnt/melted snow would be covered up the next day. Hence the buried LAAT.

Linus, will you be adding capital ships in the sky? Or is it primarily a ground map?

There is many speeders (And STAPS...) on the map, but there's Fighter Tanks too...

I found them in the Republics ODF-folder.

No Cap' Ships, it'll be a ground map...

oh...ya, snow doesn't burn...you're right, okay stupid idea ^^

Off-Topic:yeah, you should´nt come with stupid ideas about snow to a swede...we have more snow than most people could even imagine (at least at the winter) ..(I don´t mean to offend you or anything...)

On-Topic: This map really looks like it´s going to be something really good...I really hope you´ll put alot of AT-TEs in it...

a lot of at-te's becomes a problem because then ai don't spawn at the cp's and it makes them all too easy to capture. one or two at-te's is usually enough.

I did´nt think of that..but it would be cool to have alot of AT-TEs walking around...if not only for that "cp-spawn-problem"...

perhaps if you could make spawning at the cp's a higher ai priority......

Surely Linus can just make an AT-TE that isn't a mobile command post?

Is it? I do not know so much about Walkers, really...

i think i saw something called atte_nospawn somewhere

You simply remove about 10 lines from the odf, pretty simple and they're all in one clump...

Agreed.

This might already be on your to-do list but I recommend overwriting your current sky file with the Hoth one. I say this because some people don't bother changing the sky file and I personally don't like the default sky at all.
