yep they helped out alot

i got some news and small update
i will start out with the update
tweaked the lighting for Desert and for the news i am thinking about scrapping Canopy ... mabye
and im open to ideas for other maps so if you have and hopes/ideas please post them here!

since it's a yavin mappack it must be in the yavin system so i thought about facility in the seas of yavin 13 or stroiketcy,or a space battle with a space station with cruisers attacking it,but that would be very difficult,or something i have always wanted,a sky battle.you know,like a space battle but in the sky,with fog as clouds...

may i ask why are you thinking in scrapping canopy?oh and... you will change your mappack's heroes so they're not just boba and han right?

Nice lighting, have you changed the sky ?

Maybe it would be possible to have a map within that huge pyramid on Yavin IV? It is absolutely massive, and we never see very much in the actual game.

That's exactly what I was thinking of! Great minds think alike!

SIDES

by ARC_Troopa_Nate

EDIT: Wazzup GT! You may be asking why I'm posting such a long post in this thread and that is because I'm working on sides for this great mappack by the one and only Zoo. Below is a basic outline for the sides. Each team will have four legions and they will each be featured on at least one map. The sides will include all 8 units on every map and will also include one hero for the player. The team's other hero will be completely AI controlled. The weapons for the two teams vary, ex. the Rebel Rifle is different then the Imperial Rifle but they will both be balanced. This creates balanced gameplay, variations in the sides and makes it so both teams aren't just the same side with different models like they are in the stock game. Expect the next update sometime tonight/tomorrow or over the weekend. Any questions?

Rebel Alliance - Support/Pilot - Rebel Pilot

The Rebel Pilot is the Rebel Alliance support unit and the backbone of the Rebel Alliance Starfighter Corps. Rebel Pilots have Mines to destroy vehicles with. Cutting tools to repair turrets and buildings, a damage increase buff to increase the skills of units around him and a heavy blaster pistol for defense.

I am looking forward to the sides for this mappack, definitely. Loving that support pilot skin there, as well. Here's to an awesome mappack.

Thanks. And this children, shows why simple skins can still be good. I just colored the Rebel Pilot Grey for the last skin. Took me all of 15 seconds. Simple skins FTW!

EDIT: The pilot will use the stock skin on some maps instead of this one but I didn't bother to put a picture because... well you all (hopefully) know that the stock pilot skin looks like by now.

Just goes to show that even the simplest skins can be the most effective. A skin doesn't have to be complex to be good. Good job.

Thanks. There will be an update on the Rebel Trooper later today. Baseball was cancelled today so I have loads of time. (It's snowing in Washington D.C in friggin October )

yeah i agree the pilot is awesome
can't wait to see the rest
(its snowing in CT on the shoreline too )

Rebel Alliance - Regular - Rebel Trooper
Rebel Troopers are the backbone of the Rebel Alliance Army. These brave men are engaged on countless worlds fighting the oppression of the evil Galactic Empire. They are armed with Blaster Rifles adept at punching holes through the armor of stormtroopers and even light vehicles. They are armed with Commando Pistols for short range self-defense while they're rifles are overheated. They are armed with a highly explosive Thermal Detonator for taking out multiple imperials at a time and they are armed with concussion grenades which don't do much damage but they can be a potent weapon on the battlefield if used correctly.

Hidden/Spoiler:

looks cool can't wait to see more
i haven't posted an update in awhile since i have been sorta busy with school and my new map
but i do got a small update
been working with new tree types which i will add to my maps

Love your models acyptozoo, but i think you need to add some environmental effects to make it seem more real. Maybe a little bit of blur and some other small tweaks. Apart from that, your maps are looking pretty awesome.
