We aren't talking about ordinary hovertanks (AAT, TX-130,Rebel Rocket Tank) but about Snailtanks. They roll so they go under water (I've tested this on the Kachiro map presented above). But if the creator of the map doesn't to do so, there's nothing we could do. Maybe this idea fits another map better.

@ MasterSaitek009--DO NOT include the entire heroes.lvl file. I don't want people doing that. I will do what I can to get you a pre-compiled side with the two heroes you PM'd be about, but I need a few days to a week.

Rolling vehicles are hover vehicles with a hover height of zero and few bodysprings, and with a tread texture, Protector_Pulch.

But on the Kashyyyk: Kachiro map the snail tanks roll in the water.

@Raptor: I'm such an idea-maker as well, the best thing I ever could do in ZE was putting a shield generator on a map.

@Protector_Pulch: you think thats bad lol i can only make a big plain area that looks like a big plain on naboo

Code: Select all

FloatsOnWater	= 0
That's the line that determines a vehicle's behavior with water; 0 for sinking, and 1 for hovering(or rolling, which would look pretty weird).

So in that case you could make any kind of tank be a submarine! :P :idea:

But this whole discussion is nonsense, for MasterSaited has decided not to include an underwater battle. Let's sum up the achievements (tanks can go underwater.Full Stop.) and end this discussion.

@Topic: Did you consider my idea of destructible brigdes ? ([I don't want to pushing or anything, I just want to know what I can be looking forward for])

lol omg when i hear destructible bridges i crack up because i love when the battle is more life like and you can control your surrondings so maybe since its kashyyyk a bridge made out of wooden barricade but i also heard push and i doubt this is what you meant but i would laugh if someone got force pushed off the bridge and into the water and trying to get up that would be a good screen shot! lol

Again, I appreciate that you guys have decided to give me my thread back. :lol: lol
Here is the completed rifleman skin for the 41st:

Feel free to complement or criticize it.
I don't think that underwater tanks are quite what I want for my level. Although I hope that someone else uses them in another map. I put in Command Flyers, one for each team. They work very well for the level, and I hope you guys will think so to. Although right now I don't have any DangerRegions or anything like that set up so the AI (hehe it should be AU: Artificial Unintelligence) just crash into trees.
Here is some info on the factions:

******Clone Wars:******
Attackers: CIS
Defenders: Republic
Republic:
Hero: Luminara Unduli
Special Unit: Republic Commando
Vehicles: IFT-Xs, BARC Speeders, Swampspeeders

CIS:
Hero: IG-88
Special Unit: Magna Guard
Vehicles: AATs, STAPs


******Galactic Civil War:******
Attackers: Empire
Defenders: New Republic
Empire:
Hero: ***Unknown*** If you have an idea please tell me what it is.
Special Unit: Special Operations Trooper
Vehicles: IFT-Ts, Speeder Bikes

New Republic:
Hero: Lowbacca
Special Unit: Infiltrator
Vehicles: AACs, Speederbikes, ***Unknown*** If you have any ideas for a speeder type vehicle for the NR please post it below.

Both Eras:

Defenders: Wookiees
Wookiees:
Hero: Wookiee Chieftain. He will do anything to stop ememies from taking control of the island. He is armed with a Vibro-Sword(thanks Vyse :) )

Trooper: Wookiee Warrior. These Wookiees are armed with Bowcasters, grenades.

Heavy: Tank Buster Wookiee. Armed with explosive round bowcasters, grenades and fuision cutters these Wookiees are more than a match for any tank.

Sniper: Wookiee Long Gunner. Wielding a dangerous sniper rifle these Wookiees can take down most enemies with one shot, they also have grenades

Special Unit: Mad Claw Wookiee. Before the village of the outcast Mad Claws was destroyed by the CIS/Empire these Wookiees escaped to the larger village on the island and formed an alliance with the island Wookiees.

Vehicles: Wookiee Catamaran. I altered this vehicle so now it is a hover instead of a fly type.


Note: All the Wookiees are armed with their fists except for the MadClaws
Just to make it clear in Hunt the rules will be just like conquest the teams will just change to CIS/Empire VS. Wookiees. So all the Wookiee units mentioned above will be playable. All the sides that I listed specifically are created with the exception of the Infiltrator, which I will start work on tonight. Destructable bridges could be a good or bad. But I will try them out and see how the level plays with them in it.
I will be probably be releasing a Beta version to select individuals soon, hopefully within the month. Please hold all requests to be a Beta Tester until I say that I have a version close to releasing.
Thanks for the great comments

Good work Master Saitek! I love the new skin. :shock: And I agree with you, underwater tanks would be kinda... wierd. Keep it up! :D

Maybe Vader for a hero? Or if you want something new, I 'm not sure

Hm, I like the skin a lot, but maybe theres too much green on the body. It just looks kinda funny 'cuz theres no white on the body, and quite a bit on the helmet. Just a thought.

i have an idea its not a real Star Wars Guy though but it also would take a bunch of configurations:

Kimaron Cklu
all The Emporer's fighting styles
Model Anikan with a black robe and black hair
Red Lightsaber
Force Thunder (the same effect as force lightning except it uses the energy like force push and does alot more damage than force lightning and instead of blue its yellow)
Saber throw

Sticking to Star Wars: Galatic Battlegrounds the Trandoshan Pekt and Moff Darcc were the anti-wookiee leaders during the liberation of Kashyyyk.

I think Pekt would fit in well here. Crichton has made a map with Trandos against Wookiees, maybe you could ask him for a Trando skin.
