Thanks, guys. The Dark Trooper is actually using the wookie skeleton so he is as tall as the wookie. You may notice that the legs are slightly longer.

The chaingun is scaled three-fourths of it's original size. Any bigger would fix the way he holds the gun but it will also make it look awkward in the back. I think I'm going need a proper model.

The only things that are actually purple are the sky and the lightning. I'm going for the Mars-look (red planet) but in this case purple. I have to admit that the mountains do look odd. I'll try using darker blue mountains.
or you could use orangey mountains to compiment the purple
like so...

Are you... *gagging* a... Clemson Tigers fan?!

Please say no! That would be terrible! Of course, you probably only know what I'm talking about if you live in SC and the surrounding area, but let me just say...
red planet sounds much better! :maulsaber:

I'm going to keep the sky purple and the mountains blue because that's how it was in the original game.
Anyway, here are some more screen shots:
Does anyone have any ideas for Hunt or TDM mode that they would like see? Let's hear them.

Actually, I think it would make more sense to have basic conquest as Stormie vs. Rebels with regular-type units.
Hunt and TDM could be the modes that feature the Dark Troopers.

If you'd like I could script a campaign mode for this. I did the one for the last Talay, so why not this one?
Looks great!

Change of plans. Conquest will feature stock sides.
Uber mode will feature the Dark Troopers/custom sides. I'm still thinking about TDM and I'll probably take out Hunt.

That would be great! My version isn't as big as NullCommando's but Campaign mode would be nice. I'll let you know when the map is almost done, thanks.
Moving on, here is a picture of one of the Rebel units:
EDIT
An update with the minimap:
Now to get it perfectly aligned in-game...

Just a quick side question, what program did you use to make that mini map?

Looking very good.

LOL, it's just my fav college sports team is the South Carolina Gamecocks, and the Clemson Tigers, who are
orange and
purple are their greatest nemesis.

I used regular-old GIMP.
EDIT
Update: I've finally gotten the minimap in-game (a couple of weeks ago)
It may be just a little bit off but that's okay.
I've also started on the Alliance units. They are nearly done; I just need to make medic class. So far there's the (using Mav's unit display format

):
Rebel Trooper
Weapons: A280 Blaster Rifle, DH-17 Blaster Carbine, Thermal Detonator
Rebel Grenadier
Weapons: Mortar Launcher, DH-17 Blaster Carbine, Thermal Detonator, Concussion Grenade
Rebel Engineer
Weapons: CR-1 Blast Cannon, DH-17 Blaster Carbine, Concussion Grenade, Fusion Cutter
Bothan Spy
Weapons: A280 Spy Rifle, Stealth, Concussion Detonator
Uber mode will feature these units and the Phase II Dark Trooper that was posted earlier. Conquest will have the stock sides. Team Death Match I'm planning will feature various Imperial and Alliance special forces units and possibly the Phase I Dark Trooper. As for Campaign, I think I'll PM MasterSaitek009 about it.

Holy....crap....
well, I'm glad you were inspired, but you totally pwned our map big time. It looks much more like Tak Base than I'd ever dream of!
Would you like my Phase-I skin, assuming that you don't already have it?

I think you have already posted it in the "Feel Free to Use my Skin" thread. I'll be using it for sure. I'm glad you like the look of the map.
