Hey, I kind of got board doing nothing so I thought of somthing that might be fun , and I hope to get it for multi player, I tried to make the map of the podracing on tatooine. here are some screens, I probably will be using the speeders for racing since I cant use to make pod racers. Tell me what u think!

haha good idea man, cant wait to give this one a go

Actually, I like the Speeder Bikes to be on the map. Maybe....both?

Also, If you could perhaps increase the speed of the Speeder Bikes, that would be cool!

Now to just design a checkpoint based objective..

Looking very cool.

If you do a custom CP with a capture time of .5 seconds, the first person to caputre the CP by driving by would get the points.

dude i posted a suggestion for someone to make this a while back under fun games to play in sbf2, i play it on mygeeto and snipers have to try and snipe the racers, ty soo much for making this

2 segestions put in tuskens and try to make the racers speeders have more armor because when i play it on mygeeto u are lucky to see both racers make it around the track alive

I think I might make an example map of what I mean (it'd be really ugly, but functional) then have both the source and the compiled level available. Shouldn't take long.

the problem is that its a circuit, And I was mabe thinking of doing mabye 2 or 3 laps but I guess you wouldnt really be able to keep track of whos on what lap. I'll think about doing that Tean thnks

I have upped the armor of the speeders because they take alot of hits in my map cause they go really fast. I was thinking of putting locals and having them in the stands just to watch.

Yeah a circuit is gonna be tough. Point-to-point races would be easier.

it would be cool if you put in one of the elevator observatory things that anakins mom and the gang go up in to watch the race in ep. 1. i was actually thinking about putting the idea of the boonta eve race track in the suggestion forum, so good job getting to work on one

I recommend making a point-to-point race and some kind of alternate 2-flag CTF mode.

Both republic and CIS start at point A. Neither of them have weapons.
Both flags are there as well. The two flag-capture regions are at point B.

So both teams get the enemy flag and try to bring it to point B.

have some tuskens to camp somewhere on top of the canyons and using their beams rifle they snipe you...but dun make too many tuskens on field at once as their beams are effective against speeders.

Give the speeders more armor, jump and higher max speed, but make their acceleration somewhat slow.

I remember a map like this for SWBF1. There was a jump over a sandcrawler at the end.

Wow. I had this idea when i was modding but i was making a map already. This will be fun and i know it. This looks a lot like the game SW Ep1 Pod racing or whatever it was called (i mean the actual track looks like the tracks of that game).

As alpha said, r u adding Tusken Raiders. If so make them less acurate so we dont die easily.

Squirrel7Hunter · Post by **Squirrel7Hunter** » Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:14 am

yes. I have added the observatory, basically the elevator mod thing. I will add tuskins, I had changed the gravity scale on the bikes so when you go over a jump you go about 200 feet in the air (without boost). but you go to high so I will be lowering it,

Edit:
I have taken the elevator idea and twisted it abit. the first person to enter the region will trigger a fence that will come up from the ground and stop anyone else from going foward so we dont have debates on "who came first" and I have added flags to come up from the ground for the winner.

Goto high and u crash if u go straight down.

actually what I found out is that I could go as highg as I wanted to and I wouldnt crash or die, since the gravity was lowered I didnt fall back to the ground as quickly, I kindof glided through the air " like a swan through a bowl of jelly"
