Looks fantastic in any case.
well... the only reason the lasers in the trailer were moving is because the targets were dying so quickly... im sure that as soon as we can add explosions to beam lasers, the weapon will be finishable

A glowing laser explosion that lingered as if it where an afterglow, and a decal would finish ti off.
Although the supcom style spraying effect will need some engine work....

nice map, really fun gameplay on the 16x16 version.
Please do not add metal in the water, this has imo destroyed many otherwise good maps.
Water is also needed to control the islands.
Only thing that disapointed me, was that the map hardness is so high.

What compression on those images? Looks kind of nasty...
Maybe it's just my screen, though (not on usual comp).
Still, no nifty water effects!

Looking at the images, the glowing blue stuff I saw looked suspiciously like the results of some kind of plasma shield.

are there any videos of these spring monkeylords floating about?

the dark blue are lasers from AK's. the light blue is the shield that the monkeylords have. flashes were shooting at them and i thought that it was pyros at first. next time, ill place the monekylords in shallow water so you guys can see some nifty water effects. screen 247 had amonkeylord shooting into the water though.
edit
the screens were taken with the screenshot key in spring so it may be photobucket thats making the textures come out so bad. ill post them on imageshack next time to see if they're any better.

This is the latest version thus far. I am not totally happy with the script and have not fully tested with Spring either. Regardless, this is a masterpiece in modelling and texturing from Sinclaire.
Newer version coming soon...

I agree that metal in the water would be not great, but I would request that some be supplied around the coast of the 7th and 8th start positions - the islands. They're really a bad place to start atm because thy hardly have any metal.

The version I'm using was scripted by Zwzsg, modeled by rampage, and textured by wotan..I think.
Its in the unit's ingame description.
Amazing model though, on both versions.

Out of interest, where does the name Monkeylord come from? I don't remember the unit from OTA, so where did it come from? Does it pre-date SupCom?

I found some article where they said it was just an invented name from some people for the supcom unit .. the original name is "Spiderbot" (not very innovative anyway). Imho Monkeylord is a stupid name too
