.:New Maps:. Canyon Wasteland, Vegan Canyon, Flooded Canyon

[Forboding Angel]

Ok, I was asked by quite a few members in the community several times for variations on my canyons maps and here they are.

Wasteland Canyon is the same as the original canyons Map.

Flooded Canyons - Water battle.

Vegan Canyons - Canyons map with vegitation.

I hope you guys enjoy these variations. All the maps are in one archive sd7 (fixed the slow loading). Also, shadows are fixed now as well.

I was wondering why teh water seemed to clash so much with the ground texture, then i realized that your display's are LOW!

But otherwize cool twists in an already cool map

[NOiZE]

But the water map has flaws!

the starting positions are in the water now?!?!?

and a armcroc can not get off every isle!!

[AF]

Can someone post a shot fo the water map with better graphics settings, namely reflective water and shadows?

[Zenka]

sure thing.





Good looking maps, will play them and see what fun it gives

[Zoombie]

WWWWWWOOOOOOW!

The map looks like a different one. But fix the whole "Starts in the water" thing.

[Forboding Angel]

dude. crocs can climb on the hills.... I checked. I shall look again.

[Forboding Angel]

oh jesus, for the love of christ.

There is only one hill that crocs can't make it onto. That hill is the smallest on on the eastern center. The hill is all of a 10 x 10 footprint. Use a battleship or gimps for that one. Not worth recompiling the entire thing again.

BTW I just went in game to test this in case anyone is wondering.

Also, starting imn the water is a good thiung. The hills only have 2 metal spots each, and there isn't a whoile lot you can do with that.

The water starts have 3 patches each and another one rather close by. So, here are your choices...

Start on land and have a total of 5 metal income... Or start in water and have a good total of 9 income?

[NOiZE]

it feels like you rushed this out :S

starting underwater is kinda shitty imo

you should have modified the metal map imo

[Forboding Angel]

if you guys don't know how to start in the water then I can't help you.

What, let me guess, you want to do fields of mm's and since I nerfed tidals you can't do that except on land?

Well too damn bad. The farms of windgens and MM's is for all intents and purposes an exploit vs the gameplay of ta.

Caydr is fixing the situation BTW.

But if that is your reason for wanting to start on land, then too bad. You can walk your comm up the hill. or use CHOOSE START POSITION.

You guys seem to want everything to be an air map... well got new...

It's a water map! Get used to it. On water maps you start in the water (generally). If you want land then walk to it! Or even better, don't play water maps.

[Argh]

Gorgeous map. Only one, minor caveat... can we see some maps with brown water, not blue? Water around land is usually either green/gray (oceans, where tidal/wave action carries away the silt somewhat) or browns/greys/reds. While I really like your maps overall, Foreboding, and you really seem to put an artist's touch on things, that's my only quibble, other than the occasional design issue (but, um, show me a map without design issues and I'll show you a map that is totally symetrical and really boring).

[Forboding Angel]

Fixed the features

[LordMatt]

BUMP

FA, any chance you could release these as separate maps, they were good.

[Ishach]

this thread and the screenshots confused the hell out of me I thought it was a new thread.

[Forboding Angel]

ya, I'm on vacation atm, I'll do it when I get back.

[smoth]

lol, and the lich still has those black quads . amazing how that has gone on soo long without it getting fixed.

When you get around to editing the first post, please change them to thumbnails, they make my laptop grind to a halt.
