Why do I have the strangest feeling that if I attempt to load this map my computer will explode and take out everything in a 5 meter radius?

This is why we have sectors and portals.

Most likely true.

And this is why I hope you know how to use them.

Don't type in all caps. And no, it's in his first post. I love what you've done, xwing'. Keep it up, this is what all space maps should have been in SWBF2.

death star 2 = years of work, and, seriously, your computer would probably explode taking out your whole block.

I agree. If it doesnt take out your whole block, it'd probably take out all the power outlets.

You know, xwingguy, you inspired me to make a new map (with cap ship interiors), and now that I've started using assets from Tantie IV, I see now how much of a PAIN it is. There's collision geometry where there isn't texture in some of those corridors. They aren't very mod - friendly objects. It took me about a day just to set up the corridor just outside the hangar without having random invisible walls in the middle. Just wanted to say that I have even more respect for you now. Oh, and don't worry, my map will be based only on boarding parties (you said that would be discouraged in this map - I will encourage it). Of course, that's if I ever get it done in the first place.
Also, I humbly offer my services as beta tester, as I both am very excited about your map and can offer ideas about interior layouts and such - we could share much information

When did I say that I was discouraging boarding parties? I'm justing making it so it isn't a walk in the park to get to the critical systems (especially a vital reactor core).

P.S. You think you have trouble now, just wait 'til you start crashing at the loading screen.

Post by **Epena** » Tue Mar 28, 2006 9:51 pm

Dangit, you. You're getting me too excited for my own good.

Do the probe/astro droids do anything? Move, give ammo, fix systems, etc?

jangoisbaddest · Post by **jangoisbaddest** » Wed Mar 29, 2006 12:05 pm

Oh, sorry xwingguy, I misunderstood you. I'm just making it the central feature in my map (it will be conquest mode). It focuses around the boarding parties and actually capturing command posts within the cap ship.

Update on the Executor... Bandu got the alpha version ingame and the CPU didn't explode. Now to finalize the model and get some textures on her.
