Very nice, AQT. Kashyyyk: Docks now looks like some old ghost town or something.

QFT on the blue stuff

I can't really tell what's different, but then I haven't seen it in detail in a while...

Thanks, guys. As for the water being too blue, when I took the screenshots the water detail setting was on the low. That could have made the difference but then again I was not trying to improve anything (to an extent), rather just match SWBF1 Kashyyyk: Docks to the stock SWBF2 Kashyyyk.

If it refers to the original Kashyyyk: Docks, then correction, you have not seen it at all. Differences/changes (some really major) are:

• cloudy day atmosphere and lighting as opposed to sunny, clear, and bright
• 'gray with moving gray clouds' sky as opposed to 'blue with stationary white clouds' sky
• heavy fog as opposed to none
• background mountains slightly recolored to match new enviroment
• normal laser turrets replaced with concussion and beam ones
• original platforms, platform roofs, walkways/ramps, and beach barriers replaced with SWBF2 ones
• original hut textures replaced with SWBF2 ones
• bloom added on models with emissive color originally enabled such as the lamp posts
• random explosions in water and on land like stock SWBF2
• ground textures replaced with complentary SWBF2 ones
• vehicles spawn for ownership of command post four and/or five
• original water replaced with stock SWBF2 Kashyyyk water

Among several other minor details/differences.

I have seen it, but it's been a loooong time. And my memory of it has probably become mixed between the original, the convopak, and bf2 kashyyyk.

A map I've been working on:

Hmm... can't really judge the map with just one picture. Looks really dark and kinda spooky and the platforms look like they are on the inside of a ship.

Sorta looks like a cavern of some kind, but I agree, it's far too dark to really see anything. I think that it could have good atmosphere though.

You can get a better overview with this:

Okay now that I see it I think it actually looks very good. I just worry about cramped dark spaces with lots of platforms to fall off...

Edit: Yeah Trainmaster caught my error I meant "fall" instead of "follow."

Did you mean: fall off

Kidding aside, I actually like the atmosphere you've captured. The cavern if it had more complex infrastructure would probably make a good map in itself.

FUNNY PICTURE TITLED: bacta addiction (like alchool) is bad

Good one Dev.

In case you haven't seen it in WIP topic, here is a nice pic of my Gunship Rush of Landing at Point Rain:

thanks my friend, and i saw it, is great like LAAT'S GLORY

Screens of my upcoming conversion of Tatooine: Dune Sea. I tried to make it like the ending of episode III, and changed the map name to Dune Sea: Sunset.

Nice ligthing, but imo the stones and the house is too grey, in order to fit the lighting you could reskinj them to somewhat more orange.

Thanks! That's a good idea, it would look more uniform but unfortunately my attempts at skinning have been terrible. Actually does anyone know of a good tutorial for Gimp as my knowledge is minimal at best.

Since you'll only be mimicking the effects of the lighting, a simple hue/saturation edit would probably do the trick. The GIMP web site should have all the tutorials you need for easy jobs like that.

........Daddy?

Very nice work, Coda.

I think I've improved my maps lighting after messing about with the global light settings in zeroeditor. The second and 4th screens shows the new lighting.
