W.I.P. Battle of Geonosis; 125th (Revised)

Master Fionwë · Post by **Master Fionwë** » Sat Jul 21, 2007 9:19 am

Oh, I see. I'll check that then.
Things left to do in this map:
get the acklays working properly, so they don't crash the map
spawn in jedi
fix unit amounts
adjust terrain textures
possibly add in another legion
fix flyer paths and barriers

Not much, as you can see. BTW, this is not going to be the final version, things will need to be moved around, and of course, there will always be glitches in every map that need to be fixed.

Thanks guys! I entered the map in the geonosis map competition. The link is on the fourth page of that thread, my last post, towards the bottom.
Have fun!

PS. This is only the beta version. There are some things that I left out of it, and things that need fixing. So expect another version to come out in a month or something like that.

It looks really good but i think you should use geonosis dust and why are there green points in the background of the picture on this page?

That is only from a distance. It vanishes when you get closer, it's something the game does to it.

Sorry, double post, I know.

The next version is almost finished. There are some huge changes made to the map, and it is now the first map with several things in it, the first with a sphat, first with the command shuttle, and, the first with more than 16 comand posts. I found a way around the 16 cp limit, and made use of it. There aren't any new screenies, and this time I won't post many when I do get some, as it will give away the surprises.

EDIT: I have made a discovery. I found a special model which will be used in my map. I won't tell you what it is, but here's a hint:
It's a very prominent feature in the ep2 movie.

a very prominent feature in the ep2 movie?

I can't think of it.
Uhh, the starships? Arena? Jedi? Droid works?

Did you fix the crashing problem in Conquest mode?

Master Fionwë · Post by **Master Fionwë** » Thu Aug 16, 2007 6:22 pm

Yes, I did. At the sacrifice of most of the jedi, though. Stinks, doesn't it? And no, it's none of those things. Yankfan might be using it in his map as well, so you'll know exactly what it is if his comes out before mine.

YankFan1950 · Post by **YankFan1950** » Thu Aug 16, 2007 8:12 pm

You won't realize it at first because in good Geo maps it blends right in but yes it is a pretty cool model

Master Fionwë · Post by **Master Fionwë** » Thu Aug 16, 2007 11:33 pm

Yes, it does seem to blend in in the right surroundings.

Update on the map; CTF mode added. It has a very special surprise for everyone, very special. Conquest is now stable, and GCW conquest is now an extreme mode, over 1000 units, for those who have high-end computers.

The map looks great! If you still need to give the republic an advantage, try placing some autoturets arround their CPs.

map is already out in the Released Maps/Mods forum.

by the way, the RTT is meant to be a ground vehicle, not an atmospheric flight
vehicle(its not a LAAT in short)

Master Fionwë · Post by **Master Fionwë** » Tue Aug 21, 2007 10:33 pm

Funny that you mention that, I was thinking of changing it into a ground vehicle when I first found it. Psych0fred made it though, not me.

And, I already have beta testers for version 1.0.
They are:
AlexSecura
Repsharpshooter
Challenger33
REivEN
CaptainOrdo
Kiteoflight

Have you played Empire At War? It's used for both.
