yeah i saw this.... this is awesome.... with all these Naboo maps coming out we should make a Naboo map pack!

It will be very much focused on the urban combat maneuvers because the AI will take many sniping positions that would prove annoying if you chose to run across open space for too long.

that's cool, but are there going to be alot of alcoves and places to take cover behind?

You see, i always wished games would be more realistic... like one hit K.O.

and you would have to take cover alot...

that's waht im doing to my map

The pistol is a 2 hit K.O

wow, this looks like this'll come out soon.. nice screens! GIAN SPEEDER!

So all you did, is add it in the ZE with all it's weapons on the sppeder? With the BF1 mod tools?

The lighting is amazing!

All I suggest is to change the ground textures. They look out of place.

And i just thought of something... you really need some one to model you a Naboo boat! (I do too

) It'd look great in your map!

Alpha · Post by **Alpha** » Sun Dec 24, 2006 11:12 pm

I would like that, and yes, you can just place it in ZE.

Looks nice man. Can't wait to see how it turns out - glad to see another unique, theres so few out there...

Well, this is a nice idea, but personally, I'd prefer a green lighting (or a white one) to reflect the fact that the clones are likely seeing this city with their nightvision device included in their helmet. But this yellow lighting still provides a nice atmosphere.

@ Elmo:
I can highly recommend the TEC mod. Recoil, accurate-to-canon weapons, one hit kills, cockpits for starfighters...get it !

i don't know how to install it... you have to mess around with the gamedata folder... i don't want to replace something there... and then whoops a daisy!...

Keep the files it tells you to replace.
Example:
"Replace ingame.lvl with the one included in the mod"
So, rename ingame.lvl to ingame_old.lvl, and then copy in the new ingame.lvl. You can always get rid of it whenever you'd like.

@Alpha -

Wow! This looks great! I love night-assault maps, and city maps too, so this WILL be awesome...

I know it says "Urban Camo Skins", but where are they? Have you just not done them yet?
Anyways, it's looking very nice!

Seriously amazing Alpha. I'm wondering how you got those lights there...

But like everyone said, you really gotta work on the ground texture.

(and I like the lighting color-green or white would be weird...I play from 3rd perspective and you really wouldn't even need to use your nightvision here)

Alpha · Post by **Alpha** » Tue Dec 26, 2006 3:14 pm

@Dohnut: Not done yet.

@Epena: I'll work on the ground texture asap.

Some new screenshots of units:

Protector_Pulch · Post by **Protector_Pulch** » Thu Jan 04, 2007 2:23 am

Eh, I can see the night vision devices in their helmets...nice idea, nice work. But what's to say about the units ? These are just standard 501st clones, yellowly filtered. There's nothing else to remark.

PS: I hope the blue ball in the third screen is a projectile, and not a prop...

The_Emperor · Post by **The_Emperor** » Thu Jan 04, 2007 12:13 pm

You can see the jettrooper who shot it behind the blue ball, so it's not a prop.

There is not yellow filter applied at all. It's all lighting there. When you're plying they have a camoflague layer on top of them. Can't see it now though.

Thank you, lol.

So that's proof how good the camo effect on the jettrooper is.
