Gogie's StarForge, WIP. (beta spots filled)

Working on a new map? Have a new mod out for swbf2?! Post an announcement of the up-coming release here.

Moderator: Moderators

Should The StarForge have a full interior like in the game or just the classic 3 rooms like in bFII but redesigned to look more like the StarForge? (please treat this as a serious poll, if I do the full interior the map will not be released until mid-may)

eh i hate using xfire to chat, so many people here tried adding me and i just blocked them, i just reposted that pic of his to show that theyre far from similar, mine is more efficiently built.

ehh milos got a point, from a modelers standpoint i think his is more efficiently built and therefore would be easier to work with esp. when texturing. However Gogie's work is by no means bad and doesnt deserve the inordinate amount of criticism milos been giving him for it.

There probably wont be any major updates for about a week or two so admins feel free to lock this topic.

To everyone else: This map is 90-95% done, beta testers can expect it anywhere between 3 weeks to a month.

Tsramap is almost done its animations...

but the sith fighters will not spawn in the hangars, they will spawn in a large cyllinder like they do in the game and launch outside of the top of the starfirge.

Aw sweet! that looks great! As far as the poll goes, I think a more fullish interior would be better, NOT huge or anything but, more than three rooms perhaps. However if its going to delay the map so that it will miss the 2007 MP deadline, go ahead and just do a few rooms.

Edit:

Looks VERY cool.

I want a larger interior, not the regular 3 classic rooms, I love the aspect of having a map sorta like the tantive IV or deathstar conbined with a space map : )

Definately go with the larger interior. its a lot more effort, but I think it will be worth it.

I would prefer a full interior (more than 3 rooms)

I personally would land somewhere in between, what about three basic rooms but with tunnels and some "closet" type rooms in the halls. A full starforge would lag like not other likely and would take away from the bots outside in the space battle. If only one team controls the whole starforge at a time then a full interior would look cool but really serve no purpose.

I'm saying a smaller interior. The bigger a map gets, the slower it plays. And with a space map you can't go nuts with units or the map will lag.

I'm changeing my stand on this, I'm ok with the 3 room thing, But Please reskin the regular rooms so they look kotor-y. Or you could make 3-4 custom rooms. I don't mind if its small, I just don't want the shipped rooms. Anything but that.

Well yeah I kinda agree with that I do not want the shipped map rooms or I might go crazy because this map I so cool and have shipped maps

I say go bigger than just three rooms, but don't do a full interior.
