Yes, I know I'm picky, but you left out that thing that the license calls for....I think I told you about it in your Readme Template release thread.
Oh yeah: THIS LEVEL IS NOT MADE, DISTRIBUTED, OR SUPPORTED BY LUCASARTS, A DIVISION OF LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LTD. ELEMENTS TM & (C) LUCASARTS, A DIVISION OF LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LTD.

Anyways, this map looked excellent from the WIP thread, I'm downloading it now.

Hey take it easy. You'd be surprised how many people DONT have that in there.

I don't even have a readme on my maps, let alone one with that in it.

Taivyx is right is still right wether other people have it or not.

So, Is anybody going to give me suggestions for the next version, or are you going to argue about my readme some more?

Move the command posts. That's my only major complaint.

Other than that, some props here and there would be nice. Some crashed gunships, walkers, and other ships here and there as well as half-buried ruins.

Okay, I've just played it and here's my feedback (keep in mind that these are only the negative stuff I found, all the rest is great):

There isn't much variety, basically just water and ruins.
The effects with the fog and such are cool, but it can get boring after a while (not to mention it hurts my eyes)

Like Darth Maul said, more command posts or move them.

Make a minimap (there's a tutorial somewhere, I think it's still on the first page of the modding section).

Some guns are a bit overpowered, the health of the sith evens it out, but still too powerful.

Okay, that's all.

EDIT: WOOT 100th POST!!! PARTY!!!!!
Sorry, that was a bit too exuberant.
But anyways, Yaaaay

Hmm... okay. I know its noobish, but HOW ON EARTH...do I move the preplaced Cps.

Taivyx · Post by **Taivyx** » Thu Jun 21, 2007 7:43 pm

Well, you could delete them or move them like objects (along with the spawn paths and regions)
See the getting started doc for more information.

I dont like Hero Assault but i like the Map itself very much. Did you plan to make a CW Conquest Mode? Clones vs.CIS?

The Map is localized as Tasik - Underground Realm (in German)

Here's my review.

Nice skins
I love the fog, it distracts you and makes challenges. What every map needs.
There's no Health or ammo droids.
The speederbike doesn't work with the map. IMO it should be vehicleless
More CPs!
Move CPs
Destroyable ship has no explosion
I went through the wall with the speeder bike but if you get rid of it.
It crashes when you say done on the end.
What ever team your on it usually wins.

That's it besides that it has a good map structure.

Snork · Post by **Snork** » Fri Jun 22, 2007 1:42 pm

Well. I took your advice. I deleted the old ones except for the one next to the floating ship, and created a new command post. The Sith CP is on top of one of the huge cliffside temples, and the spawnpath has like 8 nodes, each one on/ near one of the other huge temples. and guess what, I open my game, and Yay! They worked. Its just that no other units spawned....

In other words, the only person on the feild is you. HELP!!!!

And yes, the destructable ship DOES have an explosion, just not a very good one. =D

Also, Btw, I was wondering. Could anybody make me a landed ship model? The Imperial Landing craft doesn't really work for explorers...

Possibly like this:

Is that an action VI Transport? Nice! Works well for explorers I'd think. ^_^

Snork · Post by **Snork** » Fri Jun 22, 2007 10:31 pm

Thats not my model... its a reference picture.

And yeah, do you have any idea how to solve my error?
