Going to be closing the book on desert valley.
That's right, I don't want to work on it any more. Along with several other grts maps, I have decided to get to a point of "done" and then go on to new maps.
So, what does this have to do with you lot? Well, I would like to give you all a last chance to leave some thoughts before you guys go "NO NO WAIT, FINAL VERSION? SHIT SUX THO!"
(click either above image for larger)
Here is the metal map, set for 4v4, I will look at including cheescan's spot thingie, don't worry about that part. Now, I know, that some of you no matter what I do will hate the metal layout, and you all have an opinion on what is a "best" metal layout. I would however like you to be considerate of others and I am not looking for someone to grace me with HIS ingenious design as there are 100s of others who also have good designs. Please just stick to what could be good or bad about the current suggest micro alterations.
So I want you lot to go ahead and post thoughts, which I may or may not heed and if I do or don't, try to not rage/gloat about it to infinity. I just want to get this map where it is

The current metal layout is fine also, please don't include the cheesescan stuff. THat is a widget and people can grab that widget if they needs textures. I dunno what's wrong with the current version? It's good and plays well
Re: Going to be closing the book on desert valley.
I haven't played this other than with gundam so i dont have any feedback about the metal map.
It's a perfect for powered GMs. :)

Re: Going to be closing the book on desert valley.
The valleys were too steep making them zones that units got stuck in a lot. SO I moved a lot of interesting terrain out of the valleys and made them more sand bowls. I flattened several mountain tops for arillery/bertha/guntank placement and broke several round hills into more plateau like terrain. the base areas are now sunken instead of raised up. The shadow harshness has been toned down as has the specular so it is easier on the eyes.

Fixed the map file, updated the link

Please make it compatible with ct rock spawning. I will gladly help test this tomorrow.

Re: Going to be closing the book on desert valley.
how do you "make it compatible with ct rock spawning"?

oksnoop2, would probally be easiest if you make the rock config and then send it to smoth so he can include it if he wants.

Wow this is really awesome! I just think the gray texture is way too repetitive.

The ridges leading into the craters are unpathable for bot slope tolerance. Just pointing it out as idk how you would make it pathable, also for all I know this is intentional.

Re: Going to be closing the book on desert valley.
Not to knock on CT (I love CT), but shouldn't it be CT's job to make map's rock spawner configs, and not map makers. I mean if you want compatible maps can you include them in the CT installation. This might also be better for avoiding conflicts from home made spawner configs.
Re: Going to be closing the book on desert valley.
I'd rather ct define them, that way you guys can change them if you need to instead of requiring a re-release of the map.
I could remove the pits altogether google and replace them with plateaus.

Re: Going to be closing the book on desert valley.
Sand traps are good in some ways, but if they are taking up too much room maybe plateaus would be better. It's so hard to choose because I like both ideas so maybe I'll keep the older versions too if you decide to change them.

I wouldn't let it bother you smoth. Spiked just probably spilled his cocaine into his desktop's fan intake while playing your map and broke his computer.

Re: Going to be closing the book on desert valley.
lolol
When I launched the map my computer would get massive performance drop, everything was black with the minimap, UI and actual map textures only periodically blinking in and out.
However I think this was because I had a lot of other processes going on as when I shut them down it worked normally.
Very nice map. I think the "pavement" should be just regular desert though.
