Hi everyone, I am in the proccess of creating Attack of the Pigs II. I am trying to recreate Attack of the Pigs in BF2. If anyone remembers the original level from BF1 by Era, it was about gamorrean guards slaughtering soldiers in the halls of "i dunno", or the "room of bad smells". It was a great level, and was freaky, fun, and hard. Well, I am trying to make it for BF2. I am using hoth tunnels, and so far, there are about 5 command posts. The level has 2 stories, with a ramp tunnel leading from the bottom to the top. The pigs are much faster than they were in BF1, mostly due to their newfound ability to jump.
The level will include the stock sides for the moment, until I figure out how to make custom sides. This level will be playable in CW and GCW.
Here are some pics: As you can see from myself dying in the pics, I am not stupendous at this game.
Anyway, just annoucing this new map I am making.
And, just in case you are wondering, this is about half done. :jango:

Update:
The map is almost done!! I was just playing it, and it feels a lot like the original Attack of the Pigs. It's harder though - a pig took out about 5 clones in 1 swipe, and they are faster and can now jump.
Check the screenies near the bottom of this topic - the tunnels have been reskinned.
I have also made a loadscreen from the second image near the bottom.
Expect the release soon!

Ok, it looks pretty good (from what you can see on the screenshots), but are you going to reskin the tunnels? It's a bit monotone for now, so maybe ad a teint of green or something. Also, have you told era of desann that you were going to make this map? It's nice if you at least notify him.

Yes, I have notified him. And I am going to try to reskin the tunnels at some point, after the general level part is finished.

So it's like hunt?

The camera for the Gammorean guards is very limited from what I have seen in the Jabba's Palace Hunt mode, have you found a way to change it into something better?

No, its not hunt, its Clones/Imperial vs Droids/Rebels, with hostile Gamorrean Guard locals. Did you ever play Attack of the Pigs?
I might add a hunt mode though.....

Sounded somewhat rude, but I have read worse though. If you add hunt mode, I suggest that you make it so that the none Gammorean team gets more points for each kill since the Pigs can kill you with one swipe.

May I suggest you use a texture from somewhere, well, warm. Pigs and somewhere cold don't mix that well.
Looks great, I may have to look into the original. You have been a great help to me in the modding world, and it sounds like you have experience, so I expect this to be up to par with most maps of the good and fun quality. By the way, is this your first released map? If it is, that comes as a surprise to me for the reasons listed before. :clone:

I actually don't have too much experience, I just know alot. I have made several maps that I never released, mostly because they were completely lame. So, this would be my first released map, but not my first.
And yes, if you have BF1, you should play the original. It was awesome.

Woops! I must be thinking of Omega Niner (RC-1309).
Sorry!

Fierfek wrote:*Off Topic* - RC-1207, you just changed you avatar in the last 5 minutes! And in case you were wondering, Sev's number is RC-1307.

How offending.
Yea, I agree with you on the experience, but not a good mapper thing. I know most of the principles, just can't apply them yet. Even though, I still think this will be good, mostly because you aren't one of the modders who release their first maps.

I know most of the principles, just can't apply them yet.

If you're trying to get started modding, you should download my tutorial. It explains how to get started mapping.

Usually it is on Filefront, but that is under construction right now.

So how's progress on the map going Fierfek?

I'm taking a break from it to make my Spec Ops mod - after that, I'll be back to this. After the Spec Ops mod, this will be better, because I have learned a lot .
I may include a Spec Ops mod era in this.

That would be cool

Attack of the Pigs 2. Sounds cool, and good it's coming from an experienced modder like you, Fierfek. I have high hopes... the screenshots look good. As mswf asked, will you reskin the tunnels to make it like the first Attack of the Pigs? And I think you should include your Spec Ops era in.

Sorry for the bump, but I have an update.

Okay, yes, the map is still coming. My Republic Commando map is on hold, because it was proving a little too much for my current level of skill. In other words, it's too hard to make.
So, I am still making this!
The tunnels have been reskinned, so they look like the original one.
Still to do:
Finish Map (duh)
Do Pathing
Change units Around (to make more like the original)

I need beta testers. PM me if interested.

MEEEEEEEEEEEEE! Me want to beta!
*sees PM thing* Oh.

PMing at once.

Okay, tunnels have been reskinned.
Here are a couple new screenies: Still working on it.

Here are a couple new screenies: *Solemnly and Grimly Nods*

*Points out that the Gammorean did that by just STARING at him*
