Screenshots from my new map

Here's some screenshots from a new map I've been working on...it's set in space, in the future, with 5 different races and new abilities/upgrades/techtrees/units etc, and different methods of resource gathering as well. It sounds like a lot for one guy I know, that's why I'm making it 2d like, in that every unit is just one polygon which has minor animation but very nice skins..I'm planning on revising most of the skins I've made so far, but this is it so far, I've only made the terran federation at the moment. Once I get the multiplayer done I'll probably work on a campaign. Tell me your thoughts on the screenshots, I know the portraits of units aren't too hot, they'll be fixed, both the icons and the 3d portraits.

I'll probably be editing the HUD as well and maybe add voices, but if I add voices it'll probably just be one unit sound set for every unit of a race, so 5 custom unit voices.

That's sweet! In fact, it reminds me of an idea I had awhile back to make a melee map with super low poly models, and give it a "TRON" feeling, with lots of blackness and lines :D. Yours is quite a bit more advanced than what I had in mind back then, great concept!

Very Very nice. Looks great, I would love to play it. Keep it coming!

BTW, how do you post multiple screenshots in 1 post?

Multiple screenshots? save a picture as jpg, change the filetype to .txt, upload it to a geocities type site, then link them with the IMG button found in the 'vB Code' submenu above your reply box.

What nice Red Xs you have :foot:

You can't view the images? that's weird...well I'll add a link to the webpage where I store them then...

that should work, enjoy

that is so sweet that gonna be downloadable when its done? its great

just little questions is there any team colour and what about the mini map its hard 2 see?

great work keep it up man!!:D

Can someone say: 1337 4r7 5ki11z? I thought you could.

That Looks absolutely stunning Balthamos, a very interesting idea for a map.

You know, some people would go out and mod Escape Velocity: Nova to acheive these same results... In other words, keep up the good work!!!

Oh one question though: "You will be revealed to your opponents unless you build a Necropolis?" Is this a secret or would you let us in on this bit of game mechanichery?

kind of like..............STARCRAFT WARCRAFT STYLE...........very cool:D

Neeeeeeaaat! That looks fun, Balthamos! Can I ask if units have a minimum movement speed? Spaceships should have to fight their own inertia, so actually grinding to a halt and shooting at each other, as Warcraft units do, is a little unlikely (unless they had a ton of retrothrusters). You might want to consider having units twirl around each other, firing and then flying past one another, then pivoting and thrusting back at each other.

Hmmm... Star Control in Warcraft.... :ggani:

My god.

It actually looks like to me that you tooks models from a Star Trek game and use them for the ships and what not.

VERY NICE. Can't wait for the Beta!

That's funny looking :ggani:

Very nice, great idea for a map. Could you release a demo when 1 race is fully finished?

That really reminds me of Star Trek: Armada 2. Great job.

What are the races?
