New map:Syrin_hiresv1

[Daan]

It is called Syrin_hires what was the name i started this project with, at first the name turned in a syrinBeta/syporBeta. These maps i didnt create myself but only delivered the concept. Later on i came with this. This is a version wich will probelly be upgraded because i had some difficulties getting the texture right. First some shots of my fist fersion of this map.



These photos of the first version shows a grey not great textured map and a heigtmap as it still exist. I must add that gameplay with 4 teams with 4 players a team is much fun, balancing crusual. in this version ther werent geos and metal in the water. So i put them on wall. i think it must be aproved alot but for now on i keep it like this till i come up with a v2 :p
Some shots here.

I had some fun FFAs on syrinBeta/syporBeta.
This map is the same with the mountains made boxy and strange castle-like stuff on the beach? Will have to see how it turns out but pay attention that very steep cliffs look bad in spring (see last screenshot)

^^, yeah, what he said.

[CautionToTheWind]

Great map. But the texture should be taken out and shot.

I think it was a mix of screwdriver, a wiki waki woo, vodka and a case of zima.

:D

Yeah its a bid hard texture to game with. But i gonna use this texure in the last version only in the corners i guess. I put up that castle thing because i wanted ther a mountain oncrossible between the bases and giving less room to build defence on. I really was looking for an alternative :p. I came up with an idea. I think it is the mountain structure from an old Total annihilation map. The rock looks kinda fingered or something i remembered there were reclaimeble rock around them aswell that we lookalike. maybe i want to put a metamap structure in the map only i dont know yet if i can blur it Enough to get it mixed with other txtres on the map.

this is the texture part i wanted to keep :p



Oh and to just experimantal a little i put on this map 8 extra metal spots on the (sypor) metal layout. And i did some metal in the water. I believe i pprevere actually the sypor layout (less metal) and the syrin layout(more metal in corners) so i will probelly get those extra patches out of there and maybe bring the metal ratio in the water maybe i little higher. But it is now 0.3 for a place you can build alot of those could it be just enough :D.
