Don't just tell me that i should do it myself because, even if i had the time, i don't have enough artistic skills to make something nice, grafically.

Without anything more, here it is:

I bet everyone knows where that map is from, right?

I think it needs a name that leads to relate it with Supreme Commander!?

Looks like there is a green base out on one of those islands, so pretty big.

But yeah, blue water, green/yellow land, and grey mountains- matches the color scheme for most of Ice's maps.

I'm thinking this is the sort of map that should wait for zaphods new renderer so it can be done in a huge size....

And dont make it perfectly symetrical, even if it is, make it look slightly different with features etc....

Add a dead skunk in the middle.



Just to add atmosphere.

I honestly do no think it is that good of a layout.

yeah the layout is discutable.

As far as im told, zaphods map format units are different, and the 2kx2k in his format is as big as 32x32 ta size. Zaphod, correct me if i'm wrong. If not, i would be willing to make it, and try to use as much tiling textures as possible to keep the download below 50megs (a 24x24 full texture like cathralda/centerrock/dryriver will make it already 70megs)

I think we should look at the video and check the size of units and they're sizes to compare with the map and try to figure out what is the size of that map. With the intent of beeing as aproximate in size as the original, instead of just assigning a «random» value.
If no one does it in the mean time, i will do it myself .. eventually. But would be nice if someone hasted things a little more.

About the layout beeing good or not, it doesn't matter at all. It is *the* map of Supreme Commander :twisted: . At least until they show another map, this is the only known one.

Screenshots have shown both ice, rainforest and red style maps.

I think its a great one on one map. But with Sup Com's balloned size, a one on one could ecompass at least ten or mabey even twenty fold units then even a Ten on Ten game would have in Spring.

you know what I don't get... and it's in the video... why does one guy have 20 small units fighting off 3 super units... why didn't the guy with the super units send in any support units to distract the other guys defenses... because it's obviouse that the smaller units arn't useless... the whole battle just seems staged and I'm kinda wondering how it's going to work out when real people play real games against eachother...
