Re: Dagobah - Swamplands
Oh yeah, I had a few things to post. First off, it was a very nice map, so well done
Few points for improval:
- Some AI barriers need to be improved, especially in the lower tunnel parts of the map. They sometimes run into roots and walls.
- What's this on the X-Wing? It looks a bit odd. Might be default.
- I know this isn't a missing texture but there's something weird around here making it look slightly strange. Could be a mist, I guess.
- Some parts of the map didn't have enough 'overhang', if you know what I mean. Dagobah wasn't a plains map and in some parts of this the map felt a bit too open IMO.
That's about it really, it was a fun map to play and the AI scripted heroes was a nice addition. Good job!

That light on the X-wing is there by default.

Re: Dagobah - Swamplands
Ok, that's fine - I just think it looks a bit odd. Not your fault 

Re: Dagobah - Swamplands
Try removing these lines from the X-wing's odf if you don't want that light there:
I think that's that light, though I haven't tested it.
- Code: Select all
AttachOdf = "dag1_light_Cavern"
AttachToHardPoint = "hp_light1"
I think that's that light, though I haven't tested it.

Will do. I got a bit lazy when doing the cavern barriers and rushed it a bit

With those two errors, i don't know if i can fix them. I know Xav just posted a way to fix it but my graphics card is really hopeless. i wouldn't know if it was fixed or not. i can't see either of those issues with my graphics card......
Also, did the fog seem a bit excessive at all? it doesn't really show on mine but on yours it didn't look like you could see very far through it all. Also, was the water any good/reflective at all? i wanted it like the stock Dagobah water, but the texture for that is stuffed....

Good point. i never really thought about that. i'll have to add some more trees/foliage to make it seem a bit darker......i could always change it to another, more open planet

Only problem with doing that is, i was planning on adding a sunny random sky and a twilight one, and they wouldn't work very well in a totally enclosed map.

erm. did you mean fun, or is it actually a funny map in some way?
Thanks for the comments guys. i'll give the xwing fix a go, but i won't ever know if it worked or not without uploading for you guys to try.

The fog was fine in most places just in some areas it was a little dense, I guess. Not really a problem since no-one else has it, though.

Oh and the water was fine, it did reflect a bit - but then again - all water does.

Just because it was sunny on Dagobah doesn't mean half the trees have to go

The fog was fine in most places just in some areas it was a little dense, I guess. Not really a problem since no-one else has it, though.I don't know what's causing it. My only guess would be the prop that gives you dense mist (dag1_prop_mist?) which sort of creates a circle of very dense fog that 'shrouds' it's surroundings. Not sure though.
Oh and the water was fine, it did reflect a bit - but then again - all water does.
I've just gone into my .fx files, and i can't find any mention of dag1_prop_mist. I was having trouble with it, so i stopped using it. I'm not annoyed that its in there or anything, i just don't get why its still there. I do have the FogCloud effect in there, but it isn't enabled:
"Enable(0);"
...oh, and i haven't added it into ZE either.

I wasn't quite sure what effect you were going for but I'm sure that Dagobah could have some more open spaces somewhere. If I were you I'd experiment with the random skies, that sounds pretty cool!
I think i'm pretty much happy with the environment as it is, at the minute. If i add too many trees it would seem a bit weird to have a sunny setting.........I'm pretty sure i added two random settings with this release didn't I? An overcast one and a rainy one? Anyways, the sunny setting is just about done, just having slight issues with sky texture and fog clouds......
