WIP: Caprica City

Post by Penguin »

I've been working on my clan map (Verena City: Skyline) for *AUS*, at the moment all i'm doing for it is making models, so when ever i take a break from modeling i've worked on this.

This maps is based on the new series of Battlestar Galatica, the map is of a part of Caprica City.

Trailer:
Click here for the trailor


Time Working on Map: 15 hours

Status: 87% Complete

To Do:

* Localize everything
* Create a mini map
* Finish Cylon/Colonial sides ((only need 1 more unit for both sides))
* Add water
* Add a load screen
* do Multiplayer bug testing and final SP bug testing
* upload
* release
* read comments, :p lol

PS: Please don't PM me for stuff from this/any other maps that i have/working on, i've already recieved 23 PMS from people requesting things from my map/s, i'm glad that your interested, but I won't be releasing the source files.

Episode III: Revenge of the P90! ((reason why i say this is becouse i spent 2 hours on it, then there was a black out, happened 3 times in 2 days that i;ve had to restart the p90))

all i need to do is fix up the black texture

Well, Zaborack, I think a nice fat, speedy bolt might be nice. :?

Anyways, Holy moly Penguin, you're churning out one map after another! *Places label on her that says map factory*
Well, I'll be here, sitting, cheering you on! Oh and, compliments on the trailer, the image to the beat thing worked out nicely. 8)

Raiders / Vipers??

Post by Razorpig »

Penguin - might we be seeing some Cylon Raiders or perhaps a Colonial Viper or two?? And are you going to be just mapping out Caprica City, or are you reskinning the droids to look like toasters as well?

If you do reskin the SBD's to look like toasters, do you have any plans to give them a melee slashing attack (those claws are pretty wicked looking). The forearm blaster already on the SBD's are perfect as is, so you shouldn't need to do much work there.

BSG is my "must see TV" show, and I think it's the best one on TV right now (although Jericho looks promising as well).


Keep up the good work. Maybe after you're done this map, you might do a space battle with the Galactica / Pegasus versus a couple of BaseStars, and their complement of fighters?? That would totally rock.

I've seen other mods that have included BSG content, although they are for other older games (Freespace 2, and there was one for Battlefield 2, although I think it's been cancelled).

lol, thanks Vyse.

Razor, i've already reskinned the SBDs to be clyons, cheek out the glamor shots thread. their won't be any raiders or vipers, but some time in the future i might make a space map with a bassstar and battlestar galitica.

PS: in australia were only up to the fleet being rejoined in season two, so don't post anything past that.

PPS: there arn't any lasers in this map, every shots bullets ((and some guns shot explosive rounds, :p)) in the trailer theres a few scenes were you see yellow lines fly past people, there the bullets. :p

Just a thought--The city doesn't seem close enough together. Closer placed and more heavy density buildings lead to more intense battle fun.

i'm going off an arial picture of the city, and the buildings are fairly spread out with parks all over the place, i do have an area that is fairly popluted with buildings, i jsut need to finish up the Colonial starting side becouse theres only a few buildings there. at the moment theres some streets going around 2 parks and buildsings on either side of the park, the clyons star on one side and the colonials start on the other, so most of the battle is in the park but also around it in some streats

Ummmm... Penguin, the picture that you posted on this page is in .bmp format, so it takes a very long time to load. If you could convert it to jpg, that would be nice.
