.:New Map:. Plateau Divide [32 x 16] FIXED AGAIN-V3

Lowered maximum heights for smoother gameplay and non porciness.

Ya know... When I do this I don't intentionally mean to screw over 56kers, but I am attempting to push some graphical limits in spring.

I have big problems with the mipmapping in spring. Namely, it sucks. In fact it sucks balls. I hate it. That said...

This file is only on bestsharing for now. It is 55 mb.

A quickl warning, this map is made for EE. There is a good chance that it won't be as fun in AA due to build tolerances, not to mention unit slope tolerance. Regardless... It's very pretty, if you have the time I urge you to take a look.

Only a few away from 30 released maps... Meh, I need a vacation :P

BTW, to the people that asked last time... I promise that my next map will be a 16x16. Just gotta come up with a design I actually don't hate :P

BTW Drex, if you happen to read this... If you downloaded from the link I gave you last night you will need to redownload, otherwise you will get desyncs. I forgot to set the start positions. :roll:

so do I anhd so am I lol.


Bruce: GD can make it up on the center, not too well though. so transports are gonna be a real good idea. However you can always go around the sides.

BTW thanks for the nice comments guys. I was pretty afraid that everyone was gonna tell me it was fugly or something like that. Failure sucks lol.

Dont take cheap shots at spelling errors, how come so many people have found fault with stretched webpages and huge pictures in the past yet suddenly its ok to post gigantic hordes of screenshots at max resolution. It cant be that hard to have 640x480 shots linked to the full sized coutnerparts.

404 Error. File not found
The page you are trying to reach is unavailable. Maybe it was removed or renamed.
