Here is the beta for my new/old ported map from BFI to BFII. I must say one thing though, it's way better on BFII.

Sweet! Will download when I get home from work (ugh, work....

@JK514 - He just got the snow sides working recently, so I imagine that yes, they will be.

Anyone want to post what they think about the map?

@ Karnage --- usually betas are below 1.0 --- 1.0 is for a stable release

Post by **Penguin** » Fri Nov 17, 2006 11:24 pm

and 2.0 is usually a new release exterminating old bugs with new ones!

lol

Trailer looked awsome, but I diddn't agree on the music

Downloading now. Didn't you say you had the snow-sides implemented in your W.I.P thread ?

Is the Clone Wars mode supposed to have any vehicles, because it does not. And I personally like it that way.

Karnage · Post by **Karnage** » Sat Nov 18, 2006 1:21 am

No the clone wars era does not have vehicles. I made this map more for the GCW era.

Ok, well Karnage, I liked it... It's just not my kind of map

But, The design is very nice It's just small... And the map just ends in a drop. For the next version, why don't you add mountains for barriers

That would make it better. And, I don't know... My dream of a rhen Var comes close to yours. You have the wall, But i think behind the wall you should make a BIGGER city or something,

. I don't know.. It's a good map but didn't make the cut

No really it's GOOD! But ya, my addon folder is almost full and.. ya

Gr8 effort!

Thanks Elmo for your input.

Ya, good idea. I'll probably add mountains all around except behind where the Imperials start.

Anybody elses input on this map? If so, I want all of it. The good and the bad.

up the reinforcements?

Karnage · Post by **Karnage** » Sat Nov 18, 2006 4:40 am

Well i'll probably do that, but by default you can increase the reinforcements through the Conquest options.

Hm, for some reason I have a dirt texture instead of a snow texture on the ground. Is this intentional? Or have you not gotten around to changing it yet? Other than that, great map! The Republic seem to have a serious disadvantage however, I was storming through the droids with Anakin, dying only about three times but the CIS still beat us by about 40-0. Of course, the CIS ought to have a tactical advantage due to them defending a huge fortress, so I'm not complaining.

All in All a very good Beta.

Im with Rekubot ,the Snow Texture is to dirt with Medium Lightning.
At the 3 CP (First Wall of the Fortress) is a Step you don`t can walk over it.You hang at it.

You should add some Vehicles in CW(I have none)
More Reinforcements and Stuff like Mountains with Caves and/or Secret Passages,Wampas,A Republic Commando Unit.
More little Rhen Var Ruins,Walls,Spires,crashed Ships.etc
And You should reverse Gameplay.Let the Clones defend the Fortress or add One more CP between the First and the Second.

Good Work I like the Map.

Ah yes, in high lighting, the texture is dirt. In medium it's snow and in low it's a different texture of snow.

This is a great map!!
here's a few ideas for next version.
add a CP in the hangar...it's kind of irritating to not spawn there when I want a veichle and it's also irritating to spawn at the hangar when someone is trying to take over the CP..

add veichles at Clone wars too... AT-TEs and IFT-X tanks for the reps and some "snail tanks" and AATs for the CIS.. would be cool.
