New maps and mods are coming out quickly. If you release something (even a beta) please post it here. Be sure to give details in the topic such as Map/Mod name and version
Overview
As you probably guessed this is a geonosis map that I have reserected from a long time ago that I was working on. It is based off of the scene in Episode two when the clones arrive to battle the droids. It has 2 Capital ships, a republic one and a CIS one. There are authentic vehicles and sights straight from the movie such as the LA-ATs, the republic forward comand center, Geonosis clones with Republic ARC units and commandos, jedi, acklay, geonosians as well as many other units and vehicles. ATTEs now have fire blue lasers as apposed to the green ones which was not in the movie. There is also a republic starfighter like the one obiwan landed on in the movie. Mostly all aircraft have cockpits also, plus there are many units on the battle field at once with an episode 2 anakin with a green lightsaber, episode 2 obiwan, and a modded jango with a blaster that has the same sound as the one in the movie.
Glad to here it. Any comments? Any at all? Let me know if you have a comment/ suggestion. Also report bugs. I am planing on putting the geo starfighter and having it spawn in the CIS hangar.
Hmm not downloaded this but looks like a nicely made map! I've always hated how Pandemic made Geo so small compared to the movies, so this looks awesome!
Exactly. Not only was it too small but considering that they bothered to put Snowspeeders on hoth, why not put LA-ATs on geonosis? These were some of the things I considered while making this map. For the beta 1.1 that I will upload soon there will be fixed bugs, the one where the Geonosis CIS hangar is see through, that is fixed, as well as the screens being untextured on the Command center. There will eventually be Geo starfighters replacing the tri droid fighters since I don't think they were part of the battle of Geonosis.
sounds good, looks a lot like the bf1 geonosis, im bored so ill d/l now. and elfie, thanks for uploading this, cause you reminded me to upload my ancient map, the maze lol
Yeah what ever happened to your maze thing obiboba? Anyway back to the map, a Beta v2 is coming very soon, far beter than the beta 1 with fixed bugs and new features, it is just plain better. I will also probably add a poll to the first post also.
Ontopic: the map is pretty good, and i like the new hanger shields, however the battle is kinda too chaotic in the dust and the sides could be a little bit more custom
GOOD news! The beta2.0 is out! I have made numerous updates since the last beta including I have fixed every bug that was in the previous one like the screens being untextured, the prblem with the geo hangar, every vehicle also now has cockpits. I have also fixed the bug where the heroes are a unit class and now the acklay are playable! Also the jedi classes have new skins on their robes. I have also replaced the tri-droid fighter with the geonosis starfighter. The last thing I need to fix is the localization where the geo starfighter shows up as tri-droid fighter. Finally, the sides are more equal. Hope you find this version more enjoyable!
ok the beta 2 worked now to my rate on this map 8/10 GREAT MAP! now the reason i did not score you higher is 2 reasons 1 at the hanger at cp1 i fell through the floor 2 the backround on the map ( as you would fly out of hangers you could see some black SPACE behind the mountains) other than that I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!
The hangar thing I will fix. As for the black in the background I believe that is unavoidable, unless anyone knows if I could fix it. Glad to here that you enjoyed it though!

unavoidable. but what i do sometimes is make the map bigger and then you dont see as much of that. of course, then you gotta re-do all youre textures. another way is raise up mountians in the back just to block it out. this version looks much better, still need to play it though lol. great work!
Suggestions: There's an Acclamator with a hangar somewhere around Gametoast. Would be awesome if you can replace the Venator with that.
I didn't see a Jedi with a single blue saber anywhere. Would be great to have the multiple colors of sabers on the battlefield.
Dunno if you can do new effects or not (blaster fire, etc), but it'd be awesome to have movie authentic laser fire and, etc for the map as well as some explosions. Other than that and the fact that for the DC-15A imo should be Pahricida's and DC-15S is OOM-9's or someone else's carbine, and the Droid's E-5s Sniper rifle should have new sniper effects (individual rounds instead of big beam things by default) and should be somewhat rapid fire like SW:CW and the DC-15x sniper rifle should have more of a saturated blue, the AT-TE should fire blue from it's top turret plus it's front and backones (replacing the rear ones from chainguns to actual heavy blasters) the map is just awesome.
At least from what I've seen from the pictures and playing a little bit of it.
I didn't mess with the Capital ships yet. I know there's at least a gunship (which imo should have movie-like efx), but I haven't seen if there are any other ships/fighters, for I didn't play for a while on it. If there is a Jedi Starfighter (Delta-7), it should fire blue bolts.
If I had any wrong views in my suggestion, just lemme know if I witnessed something wrong in the map or just seeing things.
