i aint makin this movie-like, its just a test map Razz
this map is fought in close quarters, CIS and rebels trying to attack the powerplant protected by imperials/republic. it consists of two platforms connected with a large bridge. in the powerplant end theres some fortification, making it harder to attack the compound.

how about that.

I have to say, this looks very good. Mygeeto is definetly one of my favorite places and it seemed that there wouldn't be many Mygeeto maps being made because to me, the assets weren't really that versitle, but I guess I just need some imagination. Very good job from what I see.

ok. heres the situation. i'm having some problems hosting it anywhere due to it's enormous size

it's 227 mb:s, how could i size it down?

Remove any side lvl/req files in your zip/rar belonging to factions that you haven't edited. It could cut your filesize by two-thirds.

argh. there are now two thing to fix.

Your either missing the tga file or dome msh's

Talibanman · Post by **Talibanman** » Mon Apr 03, 2006 8:22 am

u mean yav_sky_dome.msh?
okay. now i'm starting to lose it. the whole map is on hold because of the stupid sky! i took the yav_sky_dome.msh from assets and renamed it into MY3_sky_dome.msh and put it in my world1 folder. then i munged and nothing happened! what am i doing wrong?

^Destroyer^ · Post by **^Destroyer^** » Tue Apr 04, 2006 6:28 am

Isn't it my3_sky_dome.msh???

Murdocr · Post by **Murdocr** » Tue Apr 04, 2006 7:37 am

i'm not really sure what you're trying to do but if you want to change the sky you don't have to rename it, just get all the associated files, place them in you world1 folder and change these lines: (in your modid.sky file in your world 1 folder)

DomeInfo()
{
Texture("SKY_kam1.tga");
Angle(-90.000000);
Ambient(255.000000, 255.000000, 255.000000);
Softness(1);
SoftnessParam(60);
DomeModel()
{
Geometry("kam1_sky_dome");
}

DomeModel()
{
Geometry("kam1_city");
Offset(80.0);
MovementScale(0.995);
}

}

to whatever you want to change it to

looks fine but in the shipped yav2.sky filethe planet and the mountains are the other way around. you might consider changing that just to be safe.

edit: if you don't want the planet or mountains you can just delete the lines from the .sky

Talibanman · Post by **Talibanman** » Tue Apr 04, 2006 2:28 pm

okay... now the horizon is all black, but rest of the sky appears normally. also, there's a great black square in the middle of skybox too. any ideas what is missing?

Talibanman · Post by **Talibanman** » Wed Apr 05, 2006 3:29 pm

YEAH! i FINALLY got the sky to work! and while i was at it, i made it a mygeeto one
