Continuing my map-a-week process
Here's the new one :
Shining Islands
This 16x8 map is designed for 6 players, ideally in an 3v3 game
(but you can play it from 1v1 up to 5v5 since there are enought starting metal areas).
Comments and advices are welcomes !

this how it looks on my pc, for some reason the palm trees look too bright.
Also i think there are too many trees,
for the rest ... a cool map.

Another map that needs the new version to play.
Damn that sonar desync.

I know about the sonar desync problem.
Nevertheless, I hosted it 3 times saturday without any desync

It doesn't always happen, strange as it may seem, even when people are abusing the honour code of not building ships undertaken in some games.

I really like the idea behind this map, but it really needs a more professional texture, and er... Smoth's trees are kind've over-used. I'd "steal" some of Lathan's from his wonderful Black Swamp map... they're in a seperate SDZ within the map file, if I recall correctly.

Guilty of starting that craze... From now on I'm using my own trees...

Does the hovercrafts are able to climb the beaches? From the screen shot they look like they have a high edge. Be sure to try the hovers in XTA, since the have lower climbability than the ones in AA.
I think that, because of those 2 smal islands, the map couls use some more water space top and botom, to allow maneuverability around them.
Looks quite interesting, look forward to trying it.

Yes they can.
Even the Hovers from XTA are able to climb the beaches
