Star Wars: Space Assault

Here are some screenies of my map in progress: Star Wars: Space Assault.

The ground will get a skin to make it look like the death star.

Any ideas are welcome. Credits go to Domokun for the model, cuz I am to lazy to make one myself.

Also, feel free to visit http://www.wc3modding.tk/ on updates on this map, or other maps from my clanmates ^^

looks pretty sweet except all we get to see is an X-Wing

I guess its more of an action map ^^. Its hard 2 get the right screenies coz they'll have to be in action. I like the first one, but its a shame all fighters are hovering above the ground there, and you cant see the lasers which were just fired.

yeah its hard to always get good screens I usually just press it until i get a good one

Looks cool, don't forget to allow the players to choose if they are more comfortable with normal or inverted controlls.

Also, due to the lag, the map may be difficult to pull off as a deathmatch... perhaps a cooperative gameplay with more static targets like turrets on the death star and a few weaker (T)AI fighters would be more enjoyable for all players. (and it would make more sense than a bunch of Xwings killing each other)

Granted, the game would then be more fun-oriented than actually competitive, but that's just as good, with the lag, it's the fun factor that would really make the players enjoy the game, not the competitive factor. Or, you could make two game modes, deathmatch and co-op.

Just my thoughts... anyway, the map seems impressive technically, keep up the good work.

If you ever do need any models, we could supply you with some. Check out Star Wars: The Battle For Hoth in my sig, and PMTim. if you'd like to use any. Tim.'s also created a Death Star Trench terrain.

EDIT: This sounds very very similair to Gyro - Air Combat... I'll have to check it out when it's finished to see if there is a difference or not =)
I hope it's not a rip-off with changes in Terrain and a star wars theme, cuzz that wouldn't be good at all.... plus, I've already planned on starting a map like Gyro - Air Combat, I would like some competition though =)

Heh. Joe is correct. I have all the models you would need as well as a terrain you might like. Drop me a PM or contact me via E-mail, you already have it.

I dont need models as I can get em from wc3sear.ch or I can make them myself. Skinning however is a bit of a problem for me. You mean you have skinned terrain for death star? I would love to see that.

the terrain looks very plain, spice it up a bit, maybe add land creeps that are so huge they can attack you, I dunno

Hey, i know that ^^ gonna make it look like the death star. But thanks for your tips

Hmm, I have the terrain on my other PC, ill post a screenshot of it in-game.

And alright about the models, but if you change your mind, you can see mine here:

Consider all of them all at your disposal. Ide rather let you use them than hand them over to the wolves of wc3sear.ch.

EDIT: Attached Screenshot. Ignore the ship and random people ;) .

hmm, how many variations does the tile have?

I like the looks of it, but it could use a little more contrast for my needs. But I can fix that myself, if you dont want to ^^

Thats the old version. I dont know where my newer one is in order to take a screenshot.

Ill look around for you, if I dont come across it I can just send you the file and you can mess with it.

new screenshot here.

What you can see here is: the just made custom user interface (made by Prantiack), the death star terrain by Tim. (tweaked a little by myself), a powerup, and the engine bursts of being in attack speed.

I (or maybe Anitarf) will add doodads to the terrain to make it look like the death star and have some dodging on the terrain. Imperial turrets will also be on the ground.

good map overall but a few suggestions
1.make some land creeps that just patrol parts of the map to add atmosphere,maybe even remodel them to look like AT-AT (or if i spelt that wrong the big robot things in starwars)
2.make some ground buildings u have to blow up maybe in you are doing a co-op mode
3.i dont know if this is possibl but allow players to vote from a list of terrains (planets) to battle on.
4.have a few diffrent camera angles
5.and a choice for inverted or normal controls
(i do realise some if this was repeated of other posts)
