my review:

-no loading screen

-map description has Imperial spelled as Imoerial

-astromech droids first person view has a droid hand. you should remove the hand.

-couldn't find the tie phantom, but if it does not have cloaking, i advise adding it in.

-the Millenium Falcon should have the laser turrets as gun emplacements(as in controlled by another unit instead of the pilot)
the pilot can fire missiles.

I'll just make no 1st person view.

It's there, trust me. and adding vehicle cloak is impossible ATM

I don't understand what you mean.

BTW Thanks for the review

i meant that another player should control each of the different guns. that means the pilot should not control the guns but 2 other players should.

the pilot could launch missiles, that was what i was talking about

also, you should fix the award weapon crashes

Heres my review.

all in all i liked to play this map specially with an B-Wing or V-Wing. the placed vehicle probs in the hangars are very cool. :thumbs: :thumbs:

Some things i found.
Localize is done in English.Thats better than nothing. :wink:
The Map appeares as Space Dathomir,try to localize the map name right.so the map appeares at the same place like the other space Maps in a non uk version (Raum:Dathomir)

B-Wing explodes like an Y-Wing
Probe Droide is walkable.
Work on the Falcon weapons.this should be the strongest ship in the battle not the V-Wing.
Falcon and V-Wing spawning point: dont let Ai spawn at this CP only player.The ai uses this ships and if someone spawns there,he spawns in an emty hangar for more than 2 mins.
Both Ships have award weapon glitch.That means the ship is uncontrolable and you need to suicide (after switching to best weapon)
For me you placed too much ships in space. that looks very cramped.there are more than 20 ships placed but the Nebulon B looks great.

so far its a good done spacemap.

Edit 1:
and a load screen :yes:

if you like look in the glamour shots thread for some shoots.

I'll try it out and report back.

Hooray! It doesn't crash swbf2!

Well, I have one complaint, if we're going for realism, I'd suggest upping the fire rate for the starfighters. The turrets rip you to pieces even if you swerve and dodge like mad.

All of the bugs I found the other guys covered already

with nearly all the starfighters having shields, it surprises me to see the Millenium Falcon not having shields. maybe you should add them. and award weapon crash means if you have an award weapon earned and you switched to a custom weapon, it crashes(or you cant switch back to the previous weapon)

Thats right
Try the easy way.Fly Falcon or V-Wing (only these 2 have it). push the Mousewheel up.You will see what happens :wink:

btw:
you should hurry up with the Locals List.Hopefully i get Crysis on monday and then i dont have much time for it.

wait, does it mean that vehicles have award weapons too? and using mousewheel in vehicles changes position i think.

Well, it went rather well, but there are a few things I'd change.

1. The Millenium Falcon needs more than just those lasers. Give a turret to each passenger, and give the pilot a laser and a missle launcher. I couldnt blow a frigate up even though I spent 2/3s of the round shooting at it.

2. The auto-turrets hangin in space. Those are so annoying, as I fly by them.

It also needs some landing zones in the Star Destroyer with the AT-ATs in it.

Sorry if this is late but.... This looks really great EGG_GUTS :thumbs: I really like the idea of having some sort of hero starfighters, so there's only one of them. I btw also did this for units in space but this is about your map... It REALLY looks good, can't wait for release! ;)

I haven't been working on this for a while but I did fix the award weapon glitch.

I'm sorry but I refuse to give the falcon missiles. I will give each passenger a laser and the Pilot a Y-wing Cannon

Ya, I'm really having trouble getting the Linked turrets working.
valiant wrote: It also needs some landing zones in the Star Destroyer with the AT-ATs in it.
There is, I tested it.


I also Think I will up the Starfighter Shooting rate and the shield regeneration, too.

BTW Thanks Valiant for the re-view

You realize, if there is any ship for which missiles would be appropriate, it would be the Falcon. It's the only ship in the original trilogy which we saw use concussion missiles (in the assault on the DSII reactor).

Oh ya I forgot about those. :oops: were they like bomber missiles or proton?

Also, in Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike, the A-wings have concussion missiles and they are like little tiny missiles with a blue-white trail
