LOL!, looks good Bandu, one thing though, the planet wasn't cut very nicely, you can see where you used the lasso tool so maybe you could make it roundre? That would be cool

Bandu please tell me that you'll still be doing maps with your own models after SWBFII comes out.

Bandu do you have a link to your Mustafar models? I have a sudden urge to look at them...I couldn't find the topic because the search function is acting wierd.

Awsome. Looks like you're making pretty good progress on this map so far. I hope I can get to play this map soon; I can't wait to try out that Defender... it's gonna be awsome.

I just got a great idea. Bandu, why not make different skins for the Rebel pilot? You know, like one could be the Y-Wing pilot, B-Wing pilot, X-Wing pilot (of course), and maybe even an A-Wing pilot (but then you'd kinda have to make an A-Wing to go along with it...)
I don't know, I think it'd be cool. That way, you have a more varied range of skins, and not all the pilots are the same. You could probably do the same thing with the Imperial pilot... but then again, they all look the same anyway... but might I suggest making an Imperial Gunner? You know... to operate the turrets... you might be able to do it... just edit the vanguard a bit... I don't know, just a suggestion.

you could have the same guys as imperial pilots just make them white like the elites. and they already have the imperial gunner, just check around on Yavin 4: temple, or it might have been ruins.

ya i was always gonna make all units pilots ..... but with different weapons (tho they are pretty pointless unless you wanna land in the enemies hangar and spawn rape em
So... did you just make up the b-wing ,y-wing ,a-wing pilots or are they actually part of star wars ? if so , can you PM me some pics please and il do them

What he probably meant was the variety of helmets and suit colours seen in ep6.
A simpler idea would be to give varied helmet designs(watch ep4) and skin tones.

Exactly. I didn't make them up, I just got 'em from the movies. The Y-Wing pilot is actually the same as the X-Wing pilot (I always thought they had a different outfit, but I just did a search, and it turns out they're the same...) But the B-Wing and A-Wing pilots have their own unique suits.
B-Wing pilot (Side shot)
(Sorry, the best I could do is a pic of an action figure...)
A-Wing pilot
Basically, just different colored jumpsuits and different styled helmets. Shouldn't be too hard to do...

"Oh, and looking at those pics, I've noticed that the planet is kinda... weird... it looks all bumpy and fuzzy. Doesn't really look like Mon Cal. to me... maybe you could use
this instead? Personally, I think it looks a lot better... but it's your map, so do as you wish.."
Just noticed this.
Well, at the moment im using the Geonosis planet CGArtist made for me using a Hires Planet making software . He gave me this software but I gave forgotten the name of it and therefore cant find it on my computer.
I just changed the Hue in Photoshop cos its of high quality . That picture you have would look awfull blown up in game....otherwise id use it.
I think the planet looks quite good in that the clouds have a purplish tint like in L5R's mon calamari map.
Im quite bemused where CGartist has gone ....maybe he got that job he was hopin for ,but, i think he's still quite young
PS. GRRRRRR!!!!! think my munge has broke ... it cant find the . LVL anymore ... i even started the map again but still the same theing . So im gonna have to install the tools AGAIN!
