[Lord Atlantis]

I have started a new map, named tropical hell. Small 1v1 map in the center of a tropical "paradise". I will put up a download for the map when I deem the map finished.

Here are some Screens (before):

EDIT2: Here are the ingame screens:

Primary Supplies


Secondary Supplies


Center Village surrounding Oil Refinery


Reinforcement drop pad




EDIT: here is the download:

Loving the layout and those textures, good work dude. .

[Lord Atlantis]

To be honest, I have been only working on the map for an hour and a half. I reused a map that had the general layout - River going through the center and base areas already put on.

It looks a bit simple to be honest It misses a great deal of quality

[Lord Atlantis]

Neder117, remember that those are the screens when the map was just starting . I will put more screens up when I get the chance (hopefully today).

Another map that shows promise. I shall have fun breaking this map in when it's finished .


My best,

Nuker

[Lord Atlantis]

I am glad that I already have a waiting list for the map . THis map might be done in about one to two days, depending on school work and other last-minute changes...

-lord_atlantis

[Sgt. Nuker]

Don't rush it. Remember, quality over quantity ALWAYS.


Regards,

Nuker

[Lord Atlantis]

Don't worry Major Nuker. I, for the most part, finished the map yesterday. I will do some skirmish tests for the AI to see how well the AI plays, fix any last minute things, then release. All of that could happen over a couple of days.

Nice

[Lord Atlantis]

Here is some new screens:

New River look:


New River look:


New map overview w/ new river look:


I will remap some textures and other stuff later during the week. I will keep everything posted, pardon the pun.

Other stuff that is not apparent on the screens is that I have added thunder and lightning to the rain that I have already added. Sorry guys, I wasn't able to add lightning because I haven't scripted lightning before . There will be rain instead.

After messing with the EA lightning and rain effect scripts from the laser general's challenge, i was able to add lightning

Wow. That looks really, really nice

[General]

It looks ok . But these peoples which live in tents worship to rafinnery ?

[Lord Atlantis]

I was tyrying to go for the tropical houses around a refinery. The people do not worship the refinery, but I was taking some of my experiences from Far Cry: Instincts on the Tropical part of the village.

Very nice

[Lord Atlantis]

I plan today to fix the textures around the river and add some more trees and change some trees... then do some AI testing .

I have already tried to play on this map and teh AI creams me the first try.

[Lord Atlantis]

Tropical Hell is released!!!!!

This is not the final version, but I will make changes according to Mappers Guild testers and other members of the Mappers Guild, or anyone else that bring up a good point.

Here is a map overview:


I hope you enjoy the Tropical Hell .

Wow, it's really nice, good job

[Crazykenny]

Very nice

[Lord Atlantis]

Now that I know how to add waves, i am going to add waves to the two ponds on either side of the bases. I will put up a new download after I get the waves looking high quality.

-lord_atlantis

[Zancloufer]

I am curious, why are most of the maps here ShockWave maps? Do you guys make many non-Shockwave maps?

[Moosy Crisp]

I like it already. Good job dude

[Lord Atlantis]

Tropical Hell doesnt use any ShockWave stuff. If you are wondering about Night Shift, kenny removed the flakbunkers and the roads to them.

Right now I can only create ShockWave maps because of computer issues...

-lord_atlantis

[Amdrial]

All guild mappacks are Vanilla Zero Hour compatible.
All the shockwave buildings have been or replaced, or removed.

[Lord Atlantis]

On second thought, the map is fine as-is without any waves on the ponds.
