.:New Map:. Placid Stream

Post by Forboding Angel »

Fisrt off, I would like to point out that it is designed as a 3 vs 3 west vs east, I would also like to point out that I drew it before I realized that the water had a concept like evad river confluence... That said...

All units can cross the water. It is not deep at all. Give or take it's about 10 elmos deep. So, anyways... here ya go.

*Update*

I totally redid the metal layout cause I didn't like it. It makes a little more sense now and the right side can no longer jsut porc on the hill.

Adjusted the heightmap so that there are many more places vehicles and kbots can get up onto the hills. Also, I smoothed out some of the areas that didn't make sense geographically.

I like it Froboding, didn't have a real game on it yet. I really like the cartoony green, because it fits the TA sheme perfectly!

Couldn't find anything to complain about yet!!

Well done!

like I said above, I drew it and then after I rendered it in l3dt I thought to myself "that looks really familiar". At that point I realized that it looked like evad river confulence.

the way I have it set up it plays completely different. it's meant for 3 vs 3 west vs east.

Thanks noize. For a loooong time now I've been trying to figure out why riverdales grass looks so damn good.

I'm getting closer. I redid the grass texture for my next greenworld map and I think I've nailed the color.

can kbots climb those hills? if not, the east has a definite defensive advantage, as:

1. They can bombard the enemy uuntil they get to the ramp,

2. Two very, very, very small ramps...

The west team has at least 5 ways up, and the cliff looks shallowwer...

(can you tell I haven't played it yet? ;) will try it out today)
