So hopefully you'll all like it.

Its designed for 2 to 4 players, you can attack with just about anything you want as theres enough SEA and LAND to have to use both.

Once again gorm produces one of the better looking maps springers have ever seen.

Bwahahahahah!

that one statue cracks me up

thats great man

edit:

whoohoo! I can see my rocks and stuff in there too YAY!

I've got this tree I'm workin on aGorm pretty much set... though since its reclaimable its kinda... hard.. to use right now...

wanna help me test it to working? (then I'll texture it) or just say f'it for now until the non-reclaimable option is fixed? since you finished this map....

that or I can start on some other project and work on it... got anything for me?

Looks great aGorm.

But..

a lot of land is hard to build on, which might be a good thing, might be a bad thing, not sure yet.

Metal distribution looks a bit biased to the right side.

Wind is too cheap.. 8 - 25 i meand come on, it's not even a risk.

aGorm · Post by **aGorm** » 13 Mar 2006, 09:58

But then as you siad... land is hard to build on (like most of my maps in truth...) and so windfarming aint as easy as you'd think as theres not enough land to do it on.

Plus, realisticly, a mountainos island would have stacks of wind...

And SwiftSpear... I'll change my name... butit wont be for long i promis you...

Looks awesome! And not being able to build everywhere is a good feature of this map, for it enables other tactics, you have to think about were you place stuff :)

I like maps that break up the routine of everyday normal play

beautiful map... but can i ask, what colours are the rock on the mountains and the sand?.. i cant find the right colour for my map...

LathanStanley · Post by **LathanStanley** » 13 Mar 2006, 21:53

Those rocks, as long as they are the ones I made, are

white/grey/black/teal/and lime green...

aGorm had to scale the bitmaps alot darker however though to make them look right... Until I see em, and I can adjust em myself.... I guess just guess how dark to scale them yourself for now...

aGorm · Post by **aGorm** » 13 Mar 2006, 22:06

I just did a quick botch job on tehm with the brigntness/contrast controle.

Also, they have to be fliped befor you use them on teh vertical axis (will look odd in upspring, but fine in game)

Unless LS has fliped them himslef since i DL

aGorm

LathanStanley · Post by **LathanStanley** » 13 Mar 2006, 22:12

nope I haven't flipped anything yet..

I guess I should do that

Forboding Angel · Post by **Forboding Angel** » 16 Mar 2006, 19:22
