LA is not GT

p.s- keep the good work up xwingguy, I am seriously tired of the shipped space maps.

imo. i think the nebulon b frigate should be a tad bigger and whiter. is that possible? everything else looks great, besides still needing the planet below the ship, but i know you are working on that! great space map! cant wait til its out!
kudos!

Yeah, actually it is quite possible...I agree with size, but not particularly with the color. It's all up to xwingguy, though.

That thing is so out of proportion to itself that it needs to be redone entirely. Plus we need to figure how to get AIs to target it. (AIs always target the very center of a target which happens to be empty space on that frigate.)

On another note it seems that I will need to drop one of those two global directional lights. I figured why Pandemic never used it. It seems to cause the map to be very unstable so it'll have to go.

I believe they used 2 on Utapau.

Maybe the 68 cp's could be the cause of the unstableness ?

lol

It isn't that, only 16 cps are in existance (until the capitol ships are bug free).

Oh, I also had to revise the engine room. Apparently the devs never gave one of the objects collision geometry. So this is it right now:

P.S. There is a known glitch about those brown tanks: they aren't damaged by grenades when the nades "sticky on." Not that big of a deal though.

P.P.S Nobody bumps their head on that pipe.
