Lorul1's Maps (With Moving and Destructible Star Destroyers)

Post by Lorul1 »

Hello Gametoast ! :D
I know your probably really excited for me to talk about what i put in the title so lets get to it !!!
I've been working on my maps for a very long time and today I'm excited to present to you 3 out of 5 of my maps from my currently unnamed map pack.

introduction:

All 5 of my maps play a lot like campaign mode maps, and tell the untold story of "Storm Squadron 70"
I wont give away to much of the story, but lets talk about Storm Squadron 70.

Storm Squadron 70 was supposed to just be a squadron of clones but because of a cloning glitch on Kamino Storm Squadron 70 multiplied to be more then just a squadron
Storm Squadron 70 is wwaaaaayyy larger then any clone legion and because of this the chancellor and republic officials send them on huge missions

which leads us to my first map ....

Geonosis: Zero Battle
Hidden/Spoiler:
Geonosis: Zero Battle is a massive planetary battle that (of course) takes place on Geonosis

In this map the chancellor has sent storm squadron to retrieve cortosis from a cortosis mine on geonosis called "Zero".
you play as a unit whose objective is to shut off zeros communication computer to stop droid reinforcements,
through out all of my maps you are guided by "squadron intelligence" to bring your army to victory !

[ADVENTURE THE VAST BATTLEFIELD OF ZERO]
Image

[COOL BUILDINGS]
Image

[YOUR ENEMIES ARE NUMEROUS]
Image

see that building on the hill up there ? That's Zero! - and yes you will get to adventure this massive underground base full of hallways, lava, elevators and (of course) droids - and you won't be alone either. with squadron intelligence guiding you and your fellow clone troopers leading the way, there will definitely be action around every corner !

[THIS IS ONLY A SMALL PART OF ZERO]
Image

[USE THE FORCE]
Image

this mission won't be easy though !
this map will include ... new enemies !,

[NEW ENEMIES]
Image

New allies !,

[IS THAT A NEW CLASS I SEE]
Image

[FIGHT AS A JEDI]
Image

New vehicles !,
[NEW VEHICLES]
Image

And huge battles !
[THIS IS THE BATTLE YOU'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR]
Image

[AND THIS BATTLE TOO]
Image

Now ill name just a few features of all my maps to get you excited :
* vehicle cockpits
* camera shaking when gun is fired
* NO points needed to unlock all units except for overpowered squadron commanders
(this means you can play as your traditional classes such as jedis, jet troopers, commanders, and even new classes - with no points required)
* enhanced graphics
* tons of replay value
* epic story line
* capital ships on space and ground maps

and yes what we have all been waiting for !
some of my map offer MOVING AND DESTRUCTIBLE CAPITAL SHIPS

Image

I will go more in depth about that as I present to you one of my maps that include that element ...

Kashyyyk: The Storm
Hidden/Spoiler:
This map takes place over Kashyyyk and i won't tell you any of the story involving this map :D
I Don't have very many pics to show you about this map but here are some

[Cool]
Image

[WOW]
Image

[DEFEND YOUR STAR SHIP]
Image

[ADVENTURE THE ENEMIES SHIP]
Image

[IS THAT THE B2-RP BATTLE DROID FROM LEGO STAR WARS 3 ?]
Image

[WHO'S THAT GUY]
Image

OK so now lets talk about the whole moving and destructible star ship thing:
*the star ships move - similar to a frigate
*it can be destroyed
*units can spawn in these capital ships
*and these capital ships can be boarded - so the capital ship that your adventuring can explode, and everything in it of course dies !

this is 100% possible and soon you'll get to see this in action
cool right ?
next map !

Kashyyyk: Cataclysm
Hidden/Spoiler:
this map is an amazing planetary kashyyyk map
and i won't give away this maps story either but here are some pics and info

you'll experience amazing battles !,

[KASHYYYK LIKE NEVER BEFORE]
Image

new classes such as the flamethrower droid inspired of of that old OBIWAN Xbox game
and even wookies that can now actually rip droids apart whit their bare hands !,

[FLAMETHROWER DROID]
Image

You can snipe !,

[SNIPER]
Image

feel the force as a jedi !,

[FEEL THE FORCE]
Image

adventure underneath the huge wookie village !,

[NO WAY]
Image

play as new vehicles !,

[NEW VEHICLES]
Image

experience huge battles !,
and even moving capital ships !

[BATTLE IN THE VILLAGE]
Image

[HEY I THOUGHT THAT STAR SHIP WAS BEHIND THE VILLAGE ?]
Image
whether its adventuring the depths of zero, destoying capital ships after being inside of them or ripping droids apart as a wookie my map pack has it all !

i know i don't have a name for the map pack but ill have one soon
and the 3 maps I've shown you today are completed I'm just finishing up the last 2

to finish up i need to say something very important: I WILL NOT BE DISCUSSING HOW MOVING AND DESTRUCTIBLE STAR SHIPS WORK
everything I've chosen to say above is all i want to release so far, feel free to discuss this among your self's if you wish (you can do that in this post, i don't care )- BUT DON'T WORRY

UPON RELEASE OF MY MAPS (which will be soon)
I WILL BE GIVING YOU GAMETOAST, THE ASSETS TO ALL OF MY MAPS
THIS INCLUDES :

*texture
*weapons
*vehicles
*mesh and ODF files
*units
*the files for moving and destructible mother ships
*and even an explanation behind how to use them and some tricks i used

THANKS SO MUCH to all the help I've received to turn this dream into a reality
oh and by the way my last two maps are really cool too !

my 4th map redefines space combat again , as it truly shows you how cool moving and destructable capital ships are!

and the 5th and final map takes place on a planet, as you experience close combat as you jump from ruined city to ruined city!
What is the name of the planet you may ask ? well here's a hint :wink: :

Very interesting. Good use of stock props from what I can see. And if you've really mastered moving/destructible capital ships then of course we'll all be waiting eagerly to see how you did that. Looks like a lot of fun!

Wow Lorul, you really did a great job transitioning multiple maps into one and making the gameplay and props flow thoroughly with certain areas of the map the player enters! I also love how you made it that these sides did not need to have points in order to unlock them since I am a fan of the Jedi units and love demolishing droids, especially when it is free! These sides are very awesome and seem very well made & NEW as well which is another reason I download certain maps that have custom units in them! Keep up the good work Lorul, I will be fascinated to see your next two maps on your next release!

Very very nice working. I realy like this. Some of the "stolen" buildings (kamino/death star,.. on geonosis) need some texture upgrade to fit in the new world, but you did an great job.

Don't make it bigger than it is:p You either merged the models together (and then coded them as a slow-moving flyer following a spline or coded them as a turret and animated it in ZE) or you grouped the parts in ZE and then made an animation with proper hierarchy;)

This is awesome!! Can't wait to see the work you did. Geonosis has probably my favorite layout, and i'm excited to see what you came up with for the Space kashyyyk interiors.

My only suggestions right now would be to make the textures of the mygeeto and death star interior assets you used in the Geonosis map look a bit more weathered and Geonosis-like. For example, adding an orange/brown-ish hue to the mygeeto bridge models would help it blend really well with the terrain texture and just bring a lot more unity to map. The Kamino assets look great.

Adding custom sounds would be awesome if you're not already planning it. At the very least, find a more suitable weapon fire sound for the clones' blaster rifles.. The stock one is bearable but really annoying at this point.. in my opinion at least.

First of all: Great job! So far it looks and sounds amazing :)

I've got a question - i tried, months ago, to move capital ships etc. around. So far it worked. It was also possible to spawn over there, but I have had 2 problems i could not figure out
- while the ship is moving my units can't really walk, the movement of the ship is too strong. Did you fix this?
- i also tried to add vehicle spawn's into the moving ships, so that you can actually fly out of the moving capital ships, have you tried too?

all in all - really good job man !

:D THANK YOU GAMETOAST :D
so far the response to this release has been AMAZING !

one thing I forgot to throw in my original post was the pictures of the environments were NOT final
and changes have been made to certain textures in all of my maps so the death star area in zero looks more ... geonosis-y (and not just the death star area but other areas in the environment as well)

more info on the moving and destructible star ships will be released upon the preview of my next two maps but to be honest its not all that expensive as you may think :funny2:

right now with the progress my maps are at, I'm comfortable enough to tell all of you that (sadly) you can not move around freely while the mother ships are moving and no you can not get ships to spawn in them while moving either
that is truly impossible, but I've managed to get the closest thing , after the mother ship is done moving everything freely moves and the mother ship can be destroyed so that pretty awesome . There is something else i want to explain to :
in my first space map only the droid mother ships move and they move to certain points where they can then be boarded and adventured and even destroyed, and in my second maps I've created an illusion so that all the ships move - this allows for free movement and ship spawning in the republic ship although its "moving". this first map stands still almost and allows you to be in what i call an "arena" but this second map is more like a highway of moving cars (the cars being the mother ships). once again this is very complicated and i know i didn't explain things very well above but i promise ill have a clearer explanation in my next release

speaking of space maps ...
I forgot to add two of the pictures :runaway:

i hope all of you have fun adventuring mother ship 70 ! the interior is big but its not super super big :funny2:
and yes the model for the republic bridge will be released


These maps are 100% done - I haven't typed up an read my file yet for them but the (3) maps themselves are ready to be played and have already been beta tested so I will sadly not have beta test for these 3 maps.
(there MIGHT be a beta test for the last two maps sometime in the future)

speaking of my two mygeeto maps I'm super excited for my next release that I'm gonna through in some spoilers for my last map (map 5)
these are spoilers so if your someone that wants to be surprised don't click the button below

The bridge? Now this is a space map! I think it would be cool to put a crew in the bridge, like some "props" of troopers instead of ai. So you're waiting to finish the last two maps to release them? Can't wait!!!!!!!

Wow, that really looks quite nice. I'd second the suggestion of adding crew to the bridge, I think it'd be a nice touch.

The issue I personally have with adding a crew is why they would still be hanging around in the bridge during the middle of a fight. :p With that said, why not add their dead corpses instead? :P

I'd love to do a crew that's not always wondering around and trying to go through the wall. I think there is a way to make a way to just have the crew stand still in a cool animation pose kinda like that endor space map (does anyone know what I'm talking about)

But yes the bridge consist of 6 odfs believe it or not , all assets will be released so soon all of you will be able to use this bridge ! I'm really excited to give back to this website (:

Ah, the bridge is the one that you can see in the Clone Wars game in the main menu - looks really good! Did you make the hangar on the right accessible as well?
