SC2Mapster

i ment it in no disrespect i just wanted to see what his skills were like because i know my terraining isn't good at all and wanted to see how much he was capable of doing as a terrainer. he beat me though :(

Working on it

Done.

gimme a sec looking 4 map lol.....k done wanted 2 improve the addition 2 the map but didn't want 2 have it 4 2 long if some 1 else wanted 2 add something ;p

Working on it

@zeropoints i'm not capable of so much, i just try to learn by doing like you :)

Edit: Done for now. Since i don't know how to make bridges work yet, can someone place one at the center-bottom of the map? There are some medics standing there which now can be deleted.

I'm working on it!

Edit: Done!

Working on it

Done, put the bridge in for ya ktilkath, hopefully it looks alright. Bit of a pain as they keep making big holes in the terrain.

Working on it

Thanks for the bridge Wolf, it looks just what I wanted :]

Edit: Done

Edit2: We can use avogatro's version. It's way better than mine. And I can recreate what I changed later on.

damn it. I forgot to say working on it. 30min editing for nothing :(

20min for terrain and texture. 10min for footage doodads and fine tuning.

Ignore this post if u want, I just want to say use the noise style. Save a lot of time

@ktilkath: Go

Sry, I do this for the first time. Thx for the compliment.

Something I didn't change, and may be changed later:

• A river used to be smooth
• the right side of the river, should be sand and low,because it turn to right.
• there must be a montain in the center, where one of the road end, because an engineer would think it is cheaper to build the road from there to right side of the map.

Like Ktil said, we can continue with Avogatro's edit.

Also, since a week's past, let me officially say that I'm simply extending this WTE by a week. As long as there's interest, I want to finish this map before posting up something new.

Working on it again to do things i said before.

Edit: I am not satisfied with my light. I think u could reimport and export the light from mar sara. I tried to do some sunset.

• make the light red
• limit the max output
• changed the angle of the sun.
• changed colorize factor.

@avogatro: Go

working... Im gonna give this a try :)

playing with building a scene on the middle right side of the map in a u bend in the road :) for half an hour i think it turned out well

DONE

What is the viewpoint of this game going to be? Will it be the default SC2 camera?

@Ebola0001: Go

Nice work.

I just played it, because i want to have a view as player

• we need at the very end, some no-pathing area for ground. (wall)
• I think we should use grey fog of war or reveal whole area at the beginning , because now the unreachble montain area are very dark.
• readd the bridge(it is gone)

About camera:

• I don't think it would be some TPS games, so most likely default cameras.
• But there could be some triggered movie scenes.
• So I think we should make the map look nice from every angle of view.
• About performance in triggered scene, I think at the end we can
  • edit the default camera ( max distance)
  • edit doodads actor make them show snapshot in the fog of wars.

There are a lot of tricks, don't worry about it.

Yes. As the first time we're turning a map like this into something playable, I don't want to make things too complicated. Hence also the RPG theme, where we don't have to worry about map balance and all that jazz.

I think some 1 should take a high quality picture of the entire map from a overhead view and some cool pics of the maps main sections I would do it myself but ever sience i put a new graphics card in my crappy HP windows (shutter) so i could handle sc 2 the editor screws up on anything higher than low even on low the road looks weird but thats my problem dw bout me ;p

Working on it

Edit: Done. My idea on that part was colonist fleet shot down by protoss ships. Would be cool if players could find them for reaserch of some kind, on different regions of the map.

Can you still work on it?

Sure you can. I'm keeping this going for anyone interested until the map is finished, even if I end up replacing the WTE next monday.
