well he said he dropped it from one foot in the air, not onto a foot thick of cushion

and a foot of foam is 12 inches you just measure its width silly =P

last but not least, or is it =O. i decided that im going to combine some of my ideas. mainly because my annoying friend thought it would be funny to delete things from my computer without knowing what they where..... i lost the maps, the sides...everything i had made for swbf2 =( and yes he is sleeping a dumpster tonight =P hes ok, just a little dazed

very recently as i was watching the history channel i cam upon a commercial for a old documentary they had , life without people, and i heard they where making it into a series and showing it again. i never saw the original one because i kept forgetting. but it hit me, how awesome would it be to have a galaxy with out people? and heres the story i came up with

nearly a millennium after the Vong war, a group of forcepsychs (psychotic force users =P) had felt a massive distrubance in the force, they felt that intellectual beings (basically humans and all other species) where making a unbalance in the force and where the cause of its disturbance, they gathered followers and soon they where ready to start there master plan, creating a extremly deadly bacteria they released them upon every single planet and then sent down hunters to wipe out anyone left, when all intelligent life was removed, the forcepsychs killed themselves and the galaxy was silent.

200 years later the droids have taken over, there capital is Raxus Prime (what a shocker =P) and they are thriving. but the forcepsychs failed there mission, for on a uncharted planet humans still survive, of course they where never apart of the galaxy and where very low tech.... the humans finally discover the Hyperdrive system and begin exploring, they discover ruins upon worlds unknown to them. and they find droids, hostile droids. the droids retaliate against these new invaders and soon a war erupts. thus creating Galaxy Without People.

Planets involved:
Coruscant (its a urban jungle... literally the green houses thrived and started to take back what was once theirs, so did the zoo animals)
Naboo
Golrath Station (since i was really hoping on doing this map for HTR =P)
Empress Teta
Raxus Prime

for sides i was going to keep the same shotgun/ blaster/ rocketlauncer gun. im even gonna keep the same name of it =P

also the gamplay is gonna be a campaign mode only (and your locked into first person muwahahaha =P) of course these maps are going to take a long time.... i am creating custom buildings and the likes but that even takes time...im also making this open beta (since i feel like crap having to give you guys bad news every time i reply.... )

stay tuned for more news...

I Am Legend's New York City FTW! (IAL NYC FTW LOL)

Anywho, I love the new plotline. Can't wait.

my hard drive crashed

litteraly! i dropped it 1 foot onto a padded cousion.......... poor me, its busted.....

i was all like "OH, NOES!!!!!!!!!"

May I ask.....

1. Why did you take out your hard drive?
2. Why did you drop it?
3. How does something break on something padded a foot thick?
4. How did you measure the thickness of the padding?

1 it was an external hard drive
2 i tripped on a wire
3 it fell 7 inches about, hit the end of a chair, then landed on the pad
4 irrelevant

well im back with a update =D i finally got a outline of the map that I like for Coruscant also i have decided that i will make the maps have conquest and campaign mode, i was only going to do campaign but i decided conquest would also be fun.

here are some pictures of the objects im making, yes there sketchup and im proud whether u like sketchup or not, also do note not all are done and that there are much more buildings to come much more to come, finals coming up in 3 days... ive gotten really busy so the progress has slowed but i finally got accsess to the computer so it should get back up to speed soon.

The models look great, make sure the have a great texture to go with them. Have you everseen "I Am Legend?" Watch it, in the movie takes place in New York City three years after most people are gone. Looking good.

Yes, very nice models. The map, I assume its not to scale? It looks really... big.

they are very nice models and so is the plot!

well guys i have formulated a improved upon story line, and the main ideas of all the maps im planning on making, plus sides.

for Coruscant it is a all infantry assualt map (because 1. the wreckage is to much to get a vehicle to navigate without taking damage in reality, also because the still advancing humans cannot quite transport vehicles inside there ships, when going into hyper drive the vehicles cause the ships to be ripped apart.) when you are playing the campaign mode on the map you play when the planet is first discovered, and conquest mode is the beginning battles of a war to take over Coruscant

Naboo: this takes place 23 years after the humans discovered coruscant (only 12 years after they first landed down upon the planet,) technology has advanced and Vehicles are now allowed to be shipped via Hyper drive, but Their hyper drive isnt very fast, takes 2 day to get from Coruscant to Naboo. The Humans use their ATC (Armored Troop Carrier) and their partially found knowledge of the force (holocrons on Coruscant helped them discover it) to get a upper hand on the battle.( the force is not a attack for the Humans, it just helped there troopers realize when droids where behind them through feeling)

Galorath Station: This station was taken over during the same time as Naboo was fighting for human control, The droids counter attacked the station during which several prototypes of a new Vehicle (the HST [ Heavy Shock Tank] uses power from the force to shoot lightning from its main cannon) and the new tank is used to defend the station from the Droid invasion. ATC is also used in this map

Empress Teta: Empress Teta Was the second Costliest Battle of the War against the Droids, the attack lasted 5 years and nearly 300,000 humans lost their lives in that time frame, the droids lost nearly 675,000 droids during the fighting because they used any droid that was available and was programmed to handle a weapon (some where even reprogrammed just to help) the finished version of the HST helped turn the tide of battle after 2 years of bloody conflict. The ATC's was able to hold off several cargo ships and stop them from landing and releasing any droid reinforcements.

Raxus Prime: the costliest battle of the War against the droid. The droid army got any remaining droids from around the galaxy to relocate to the planet. the battle lasted 7 years and the incoming reinforcements of droids coming from all corners of the galaxy seemed to never cease. Eventually the "Palace" was destroyed by a Cargo craft shot down by a ATC (The "Palace" is a massive pile of junk where the droid leader, or brain, resided under heavy defences and 12,000 guard droids and personnel) once the leader was killed the droids had a harder time thinking for themselves some resisted, others jsut shut down (there own programming chip either rusted away or was shot, but their transciever unit was still in tact which was the reason why the leader was able to control them all. the HST and ATC is a usuable vehicle in this map as well.

New Vehicle Ideas:
ATC- a armored troop carrier has 4 machine gun posts (one on each side) and a anti airgun on top. the driver has no weapons on the vehicles but he can speed up the vehicle when needed. kinda a box shaped design much like this machine guns loaded with anti armor bullets, does major damage to infantry and normal damage to Vehicles.

HTS- Heavy tank that fires electric bolst from its main gun, has 2 front turrets to take care of infantry threats. tank looks like this if someone is willing, sketchup cannot make vehicles as many of you know, so i was wondering if someone would be willing to help me create these vehicles. your help would be greatly appreciated.

also another building is half finished (somewhat simple building, only done with half of it, took 6 hours to finish) finally the Droid sides:
Droids will have
battledroid- Rifle, Rocket launcher, grenades
Ig-88 droid- Rifle, Grenades, Mines, Fusion cutter (heals droids, hurts humans)
Droideka - same weapons as it always had, but its shields are weaker
Magnaguard- Sniper rifle, pistol, Grenades,
Hk-47 droid- Rifle, Mortar attachment (attached to rifle), Concussion grenades
thats what i thought about with the droid sides.

Humans:
Rifleman- Rifle, Rocket launcher, grenades
Support trooper- Rifle, Grenades, Mines, Combat AED (heals humans damages droids)
Mercenary Trooper- Sniper, Pistol, grenades
Commando Trooper- Rifle, grenade attachment, concussion grenade
Commander- Shield unit, Mines, Rayborn Pistol (antiarmor pistol that uses the sun's rays as bullets and power, overheats only great against infantry, fair against vehicles)

what you guys think? working on several buildings at the moment as well that are not worthy of being seen yet (totally ugly =P) also if any1 is able to convert my sketchup objects into a usable msh file and odf, i would be most greatful,send me a pm if you can do this as my computer doesnt have enough memory for xsi and sketchup.... sadly

Since you lost the original data for this, is this (or at least one map of it) over 50%? If it's not, this topic will need to be locked for the time being.
