nice.
One thing you may want to try that my bro did with Unreal Tournament in his level Disposable Heroes was to take 3D Studio Max and make a landscape with that. He was the first person to do that and got really good reaction from the community. You could do that then import it into JA, and stretch textures into the right placings. You'll have to get some of your own textures though because stetching textures don't work really well, but its the 100% best way to do an outdoor landscape.
good idea, however high poly models are not good, with the terrain method SJC is using he makes normal brushes then moves their edge vertexs around to make those cliffs, this method makes for better FPS and you have more direct control over how it looks in the end, plus their easy to make.

No offense, but after hearing of about 5 different maps that were said to be "released soon" havent been released yet and seem like they never will be.
Ive ****in given up on waiting in this mod, it just aint going to happen soon, and its been 3 months since the holidays.
Ill bite my ****ing tongue off the day ANYTHING is released, and i SWEAR TO GOD i will.
therefor, forget looking up to new maps , abilities, or anything of that ****ing sort, the shiot just aint happening for about another 3 to 9 months.
i ****ing give up.
p.s.( if i could do any of this bull**** myself, i would and id work so hard it would be finished by spring break, thanks to procrastinating and bull**** talk of things that will NEVER happen, ive looked up to some mb fun before i have to go to football training EVERY afternoon from 2:15 till 6 O'clock, thanks a lot for at least releasing something worth while, my ass)
Wow, those look amazing, that'll be one hell of a map.

well, heres a butcher knife cause Arena is releasing on Sat the 12th (my Birthday) open wide! :p
EDIT: btw, the MBII team has been working very hard to insure when B17 DOES release, its as bug free and stable as possible. The same goes for my work, the time I take now to insure the map plays "releativly" stable and bug free insures I dont have another event like the first Naboo Theed, I try to make the best time possible on my releases, but also I work better when I WANT to work on the maps, sometimes I get bored working on one and work on a diff one for a bit, a shoddy method yes but it works.

that's cool. I dont know much about map making, just from second hand stuff that my bro has taught me.
If you have UT you may want to check out his map: Disposable Heroes by Chrysaor. Though dated, with the engine available he does a great job with outdoor environments.

chronik quit bitching or cerb will eat you
Ok chronik, first off, non official maps have come out in a somewhat steady stream."Official" maps only come out with the builds. "Semi-Official"(or what I call them anyway)maps such as lind's DS come out somewhat inbetween the stream of community maps and official ones. These maps are good, and better than alot of stuff in BaseJKA.
Second off, if you really want a new map, start map making. You know, practice? You arent born with these skills.
I do believe you owe the team, linds, and SJC a decent apology.
OT, wow that map is teh shizzle.

Maybe the team, Should say When b17 is released it is released at this site... and when it launchs it make's your computer freeze up. Or just laugh at us and make us wait longer :p

linds map are no more official then any other community mappers
The beta testers are usually willing to take a look at maps. And that is what Lind is doing.

judging by the sheer beauty of the pics of this map, its going to be a complete breakthrough.
lindsey made me cut my tongue off , by speaking of release of the arena (with the acklay and republic gunship) coming this saturday i beleive.
god i hope it looks just like the real deal, with walls that stretch up to the sky like a big insect colony
gj everybody and everyone, even if you only sat around and scratched your balls like me.
and thank you for the maps that shall be widely played in the near future..
btw, whens THIS map estimated?

personally i like new maps better that have had the care and attention they deserve, like to be honest (and i mean brutally honest) i cant say i like theed very much, now deathstar on the other hand now that was good, it had alot of care and time to make and it shows very well, its just a tad big me thinks but this was sloved by having a few more routes.
This map looks really cool, I'm awaiting the release :p
The latest from the master at work :p
See those dueling jedi and sith on there? Gives you a size of scale :p
Full interior too in the ship, like Republic Commando

i only have one word to say about that map:
Beautiful
Man... SJC must have some amazing technique.. cause just by what we've seen so far, you'd think it'd lag horribly being so beautiful...
Edit in response to deelmies: I meant fps lag.
(By the way, i don't know anything about mapping, but cej's map makes connection lag too.. somehow..)
dee|mies
10-03-2005, 22:05
lag? so the map makes your internet connection unstable?
with the acklay and republic gunship) coming this saturday i beleive.
Someone is actually using my and Monsoontide's Beta Acklay?
AlphaBowser

is it really that huge....or is it just like a valley leading to the starship?
btw.... the cliff idea i already used for the --side pproject ren var........it is betteer for fps....and gives a crapload of control over the way it looks.......
ok sorry to have to do this but I think Lindsay has got the wrong end of the stick - This map is not intended for movie battles - I only said I would help Lindsay do some terrain for his geonosis map, I only showed him these pictures so he could get an idea of the textures, lighting and skybox I was going to use.
This map is going to be a FFA and it’s inspired by Star wars republic commando - the terrain that I am going to nock up for Lindsay is separate to this map.
And with no disrespect to Lindsay I wouldn’t call it a partnership as I said I would just make the terrain - to be honest though now I have got most of my other maps out of the way I don’t intend to map for mb anymore, I will finish off Kamino for Dacks and then its onto Broken Knuckle for me full time.
Again I am sorry Linsday if you got the wrong end of the stick with this map but its not for MB I only showed you so you got an idea of what the color theme was going to be like
I haven’t read all through this thread, but take it as confirmation form me that the screenshots that may or may not be shown here specifically those at this map-review thread
http://www.map-review.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1164
are not going to be an MB map as I said I am just going to help with the terrain once I get Kamino polished off for dacks.

Don't worry J, u'd need to know the whole story to understand it :cool:
But thank you for clearing this up to the public.
*coughs*
Clean up on line #2, we just had another Fatality!
no problem James, it was a small misunderstanding :)
sorry for the confusion :D
hey mate its ok - just needed to clear things up a bit there, I should get the terrain done in the next week though - now I have got textures made etc :D
you find it funny lol? :confused: I just needed to clear it up.
Any chance you might give lindsey the .map file to someone to rework into an MB2 map, with credit to you, or is it purely FFA and exclusively yours?

Lindsey Release Arena Lol!
Lindsey Release Arena Lol!
When lindsey decides to release the arena, He will make another thread like the endor one and every person will be there in less then 5 minutes :p
well I dont plan to give the .map of this Geonosis map to him - instead I will make the terrain for his Geonosis map using the textures colours and sky that I made for mine.
....This map is going to be a FFA and it’s inspired by Star wars republic commando....
I thought the ss's looked famliair. Is the map being based off single player or the multiplayer version? Always a joy to see your work sith-j.
Sith-J, will hatrus make a spider droid for your map?
