Hi all well most of you thought I have given up on this haven't you? Well I haven't and I got a picture of the heat of battle with Qdin's Sith trooper but I am lacking the Old Republic troopers so don't you worry it won't be TAHT un-canonical.

I received the Beta today so downloaded it and played it. (I got 2 betas in one day O.O) This is my 1st try at reviewing and beta-ing so if I said anything wrong, please correct me. :P

Well, sorry to upset anyone but the map is quite empty. No vehicles or turrets so its only units vs units. But I gotta say the AI is good to fight with. Good idea on putting barriers around the map and using the Dagobah assets really makes the whole place look like a swamp in Kashyyyk but those trees aren't Woshrr (sp?) trees (Looks like Endor trees). There's only one unit to use as, 501st Clone Trooper & Sith Trooper so It is quite boring at times. It need improvement and vehicles for more action.

Here is the bug list:
- Sith Troopers is CIS
- Sith Troopers have no sound
- Sith Troopers have CIS announcers
- Count Dooku's force lighting lacks sound (I thought Count Dooku wasn't in the Sith Wars?)
- The AI tends to get stuck on trees
- The explosive tanks doesn't have any explosion effects after exploding but it does kill.

Here's a screenshots to show the AI bug.

And this flamable object is stuck

There's not really much problem with the GCW and assault but it needs vehicles and turrets as its too empty.I might miss something hope another tester can fill in. Overall, it's an OK map that need improvement on the battlefield. I hope to see more action in a later beta. (If there will be. :lol: ) That is all folks :wink:

I like the map , but i have made a list of things you should change/fix :

- Add more dust

- Make the map a little bit darker

- Place a security-terminal next to the star-map ( like in the game )

- Make the entrance of jolees house bigger !!!

- USE OLD REPUBLIC TROOPERS INSTEAD OF CLONES!!!

- USE MALAK/REVAN AS THE SITH TROOPER`S HERO

- AND WHEN YOU ARE GOING TO USE THE OLD REPUBLIC TROOPERS THEN YOU SHOULD USE JOLEE BUINDO AS THEIR HERO.

- SITH TROOPER ARE CIS

- SITH TROOPERS HAVE NO SOUNDS

Thank you Beta testers the problem with Wosyyr Trees is that they are to big!if I made the trees Wosyyr it would look stupid. I don't plan on adding Vehicles because with large one collisian nightmares with the trees and speeders would crash to much but turrets I haven't though tof that and all of you beta testers do not worry when I get Gogie's Assets all your hopes and dreams of getting the Old Republic, Jolee, other Sith Units, and Malak will be answered.




PS: didn't you notice I localized CIS to Sith Empire?

Terrain height needs more differation. There are a lot of flat, boring places.

Spruce it up with some foliage and more rocks to use as cover.

Please put Old Republic Troopers in to fight the Sith Troopers.

Maybe you should do Galactic Civil War as Old Republic vs. Madolorians (Mandolorian War) and Clone War as Old Republic vs. Sith. (Jedi Civil War) That's what I'm doing for T:RZ.

AI get stuck sometimes behind objects.

I spawned inside a tree as a Rebel at the front Command Post. Might want to check your Spawn Nodes.


Overall, the AI were good, and it was a good fight. But at the end, the AI just stood around their command posts. I like how you included some key landmarks from KOTOR. However, the map istself was rather large and it got boring walking from one end to another. (Swoop bikes would be great, if anyone has a model)

@XxDepredationxX- it is GCW I can't figure out how to get a hunt and I don't need one.

@ARC_Trooper_phi658- two "Es" I thought was only one

@The Emperor- thanks I made an entire new side to get it to work


@ Everyone- I only have that one Czerka Officer no other people (Czerka Worker and Slaver) so if anyone wants to help all is accepted.


P.S. I have foir a Czerka Side a Wookie Traitor to give them more back bone cause I give the Wookies 1 out of 6 CPs and Czerka still gets owned like crazy

Well, Czerka hired lots of mercenaries, right? So you could try to reskin Han Solo or one of the Jedi (without the "skirt" part) as a mercenary.

Anyway, this map is lookin' good! Keep working on it! :)

Aight' I've played it, there's still the missing sounds problem but the stuck behind trees problems are less. I don't know why, but at some places even with my settings on Low it still lag like hell! The AI is amazing, but really, there are too much Clone Commanders on the field at once. The Sith Trooper totally get slaughtered in cold blood. I like the new era, the wookiees definately kick a$$ but it sometimes overpower the Czerka mercs. Nice skins though btw.

Oh and there's this bunch of floating grass....

This map would look a hundred times better with some good lighting.

1. Open up ZeroEditor and load up your world.

2. Go to the "Light" tab.

3. Edit these numbers untill you are satisfied. (Try to give your map a darker look)

In addition, some more map work is needed. Add some rocks and more foliage.

@ XxDepredatationxX and Darth Maul-
OK I am fixing the missing sounds and the Clone Commanders in one swift swipe, I will make it original people for CW but I will use some really good skins...................that I do not have yet....... but if anyone will be kind enough to make them for the Clones it will be much apreciated. Also I know that Czerka gets owned and I mean Owned like crazy. Darth Maul Thanks for that lighting advice I did not know that. I can not add alot of foliage for one really big reason: The Object Limit! There are alot of objects already about 100 more and the limit is past so it is hard to deal with it.
