Well I'm not... but what do you mean? big trees or something? swamps?

I figured out a way to do swamps... you cheat... make a really shallow pool and then put a model (mother's features) of your smampyness on top of it and make it walk passable...

Well, he oviously mean lush maps. like the maptype in core contincency.

Those should be a bid difficult to recreate, as they heavyly depended on bitmap trees&co

I tried to covert a simple Lush map like Luschinfloggen without any luck.

I as well miss lush maps, I have tried a swamp map but it kinda sucks, it doesn't feel like a swamp at all, just a place with some ponds....

I think a lush map would only work with some snazzy features, and a fog level that hangs around just above the sea level, which is small enough so that only units' legs are obscured. It would look very snazzy.

I never actually played any lushmaps, but what would be required to make one? Which 'snazzy' features apart from low fog? ;)

Vines and/or roots stretching over the forest grounds, shrubs, scrubs and foliage, a little flower here and there, big willow trees and oaks.

It would be nice if you could have crocodiles that attack your Peewee's lol.
