help make maps for my mod :)
« on: June 10, 2006, 05:36:42 pm »
I just came back after nearly a year of no soldat and I've made a Star Wars mod and I want to make some maps.
BUT i found out the new maker is Polyworks... It's so bloody confusing (old map maker so much easier) and I cant get it to do what I want...

... Sooooo I'm gonna need help making some star wars maps for my mod.
Any takers?
EDIT: primarily maps like:
kamino
Kashyyyk
naboo
tatooine
Geonosis
er... and more
p.s. think 'Battlefront' - the maps from that game

the mod is in the partial mods section.

EDIT: heres a cloud city idea i whipped up

IGNORE the man floating in mid air!! The jet should be quite limited

AND another map layout idea for endor (after the end of the pic would be more of the same thing with lodads of scenery and then the imperial base/satellite)

EDIT: OK! I've started my own endor map to go with kamikazee duck's
Heres a screen

Kamino? Too dull. IMHO, go for the battle where the republic troopers were first involved.

Use Polyworks. Better than Soldat mapmaker at any rate, and much, much easier to use.

EDIT : Or you could make a map onboard a batttle cruiser, where the republic troops have to fight against enemy trandoshans, ala republic commando?

you meant Geonosis?  That would be a good one.
Tatooine is an obvious one, I think I'd make a big pit like in the movie that kills people instantly.

that would be interesting, but would you put the barge as a spawn point? Or perhaps if they walk across the desert they take a bit of damage?

We could do the death star, force people to get from top to bottom, or disable the cannons ala infiltration.

Or, we could do endor, where you play as ewoks and play HTF with the Stormtrooper's com link. That would be funny.

Why don't we just do all of them?  :D

I'm going to make that jungle place from the last movie.

thats endor your thinking about
kamino would be cool.
think battlefront
kashyyyk - where the droids come across the water onto the beach and theres high wooden hut things.
naboo - streets of theed
tatooine - mos eisley with loads of houses taht would make good combat
+ desert (tusken vs anyone) rocks, huts, tusken camp and a sarrlac pit
Definitely Geonosis!
I thought of some basic map outlines for you guys to work with/around. Dunno if you wanna see them..
! what would be cool is cloud city landing platforms, anyone played that map? where theres small platforms then big ones i the middle, easy to fall off.
yeah but try making some clone vs droids maps first off :P (or with kashyyyk wookies vs droids)

Err....I'm dry out of ideas so I imght try some of these. However I won't be adding any Star Wars scenery so you will have to make/add those to the maps. If I make any I'll PM you the download link.
Can I add stuff from the books, like the Yuuzhan Vong and the Killiks?

Oooooh, Centerpoint Station...

Not finished, I need to waypoint it, fix a few shading problems and get more Star Wars scenery.

Does anyone working on their Star Wars map have any good Star Wars scenery? I'm struggling to find anything good that will match the map on google. I've just got the two AT-ATs.

Any sugestions with the map please put forward.

Endor looks cool but not like endor :)
(its real nice looking though I'd love to try it when your done :))

There are loooads of reaallly big trees with tree houses and stuff with platforms and walkways.
;D
I'll put up some more drawings to work around.

http://jediknight2.filefront.com/screenshots/File/52320/1

K, I'm done with mustafar!  I must say I was very happy with the result, the only real problem is it's not waypointed because I'm not up to waypointing rock jumping.   :P
