Final Map Pack - Everything You Need To Know (Released!)

Post by Xavious »

Everything You Need to Know About the Saga of the 607th Final Map Pack

Released! (http://www.gametoast.com/forums/viewtop ... 35&t=16865)

Since you non-beta testers aren't getting any new updates of any sort, I figured I'd convert this topic to give you all information on the upcoming Saga of the 607th Final Map Pack. I'll update this topic every so often with new information as well as screenshots and maybe a couple videos.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: When's the release date for the Final Map Pack?
A: I said early December before, but I've been a bit low on time lately, so I don't have a release date.

Q: Are you going to release your assets/skins/etc?
A: No.

Q: Can you add (such-and-such unit)?
A: Nope, the side layout is final as of now.

Q: Can I be a beta tester?
A: Nope, I'm all set for beta testers.

Q: Where can I download the earlier versions of the 607th maps?
A: Though I'd suggest waiting untill the final release, you can find links to earlier versions at this link.

Q: I only see Map Packs 1 and 2. Where's 3?
A: Map Pack 3 was never released, but it's maps will be in the final pack.

Q: Why was Fahul: 607th Offensive cancelled? It looked really cool!
A: I had lots of problems with it. Besides, I wanted a space map in the series. So I replaced it with Space Kamino.

Q: What's this "secret map" you keep talking about?
A: Kamino, which has now been cancelled. (For now)

Q: Are you leaving modding after the Final Map Pack is done?
A: Nope.

Awesome, a real interior!
I'll be eagerly awaiting Space Kamino, although I expect a Zhaus' saber throw is going to be a tad overpowered in a narrow, straight hallway like that.

Right now, I'm debating whether or not to even include saber characters. They would make it way too easy to capture the enemy's main ship, since there are lots of narrow hallways.

Maybe I'll just put a bunch of hint nodes to tell the AI to plant mines all over the hallway. :P

Hey, I was wondering - are there any gaps in the models of those hallways? I saw what might have been errors when I looked at them in 3DOC, but I've not looked at them ingame.

Visually, the model is just fine, but there are a couple collision errors in the floor. (or the collision is just missing... or something along those lines)

Updates!.... sort of.

Anyways, today I'm going to tour you through the first portion of the CIS command ship's interior. Keep in mind that all of this is still W.I.P., and thus subject to change. Also, this is only the first few rooms, there'll be more eventually. (There is more right now, but it still needs some touching up before I post pictures)

This is one of the two hangar command posts. The 607th starts the game with this CP.

This is the other command post. This one is controlled by the CIS. Because the two opposing CPs are so close together, a chaotic fight will ensue here right at the beginning of the battle. There's plenty of crates and cover in the hanger between the two CPs, as well as a couple of turrets.
Hidden/Spoiler:
Image
The auto-turret room is unchanged from the default, but I'll probably add some more later to spruce up the look of it. If the 607th nabs both hanger command posts, they'll have to fight their way through here as well. When playing, it would be a good idea to take out all the internal systems here before moving farther into the ship.

And this is the room beyond the auto-turret room. It looks bland now, but I'm still working on it. I'm thinking about adding a "security system" in here, which is similar to the auto-turret mainframe, but controls the internal auto-turrets. Like I said earlier, this isn't the last room, there's four more hallways from this hall leading to.... well, you'll just have to wait and see,

If you mean this mappack.. It's not out yet.. You can get the first two though. Nice work, though I would make the Kamino prop darker to match the ship.

Pity that it's over. These maps are great, and I will be sorry to see the series end. At least we have those final two maps to look forward to.

You have done awsome work. I will cry now. Are you giving up modding, or are you starting on a new series or something?
