Hey, Snipergen, Thats looking great, on the first screenshot the tree on the left, behind the blockades is blocking the view of the town, I think it would be nice to move this tree to the left, on the other side of the road, and perhaps instead have a small bush there. The road on the left and right seem to lead to dead ends, or end abrubtly, it would be nice to make these lead into the town. When you look to the skyline the only large objects is the HUGE tree and something that looks like a cliff, it would be nice to have something else in the skyline, perhaps birds, and some more larger obstructions such as cliffs or hills. On the second screenshot things look just as awsome, but the crashed plane could do with actually looking like it damaged the tree, perhaps make it so the tree has bent over to the side, and make a kind of path where the plane has skidded into the swamp also perhaps some vines/bushes that are retaking the plane. Id remove the fences on the right if i were you, they look a tad random. On the left at the back i guess things are WIP, but id remove the tree behind the plane-crashed-tree and perhaps add some more variation in the terrain (hight wise). Invader94, Certainly original and good recreation of the temples, but everything feels very cluttered in incoherent, if i were you, spread things out a little, remove some of the smaller buildings and temples and generally remove some of the parts, it feels extremely complex which is not always a good thing.

Very observant comments there myles Can we all get a detailed review like that I noticed you say something about rotating trees downwards. unfortunately it is not possible to do inside of this editor we can only rotate trees on the Z axis, or vertical axis. Snipergen could probably use some broken logs on some rough looking ground however. But I really couldn't imagine a light aircraft ripping a tree of that size in half
myles Woah.	Dec 29 2008, 7:39am Anchor
Hmm, Otreum, are you sure you can not rotate tree's? I mean if the tree is a object, not part of the collective system, then you can just click the rotate button in the object tool under parameters. Oh sorry looks like I missed your map Looks like a bloody lot of effort went in to ge that right, now though I think you should start looking into making it a warzone, add some trees in the middle, make some parts ruined, add Liana reeds hanging down from parts of the sun, add some carnage and damaged parts of the colosuem to add more ways to enter the center. Cheers! -- Portfolio Error: The operation completed successfully.

Hey i just finished my first map! Its a recreation of fy_poolday, my map is basically the same, but i addet some african flavour. I think everybody who played CS knows this map. Some screeneys: Made for the Nostalgia Award. What do you think about the map?

Cheers! You can rotate trees but not in the way that you can lay them down. Same with ladders, you can only rotate them down a certain distance in the direction that the ladder faces, but you cannot rotate them sideways due to how the ladder works. It's just a restriction due to how trees burn and blow in the wind I reckon. Thanks for your input on my map, lol. It's far from done though hehe, it was just a teaser of a quick 2 hours work, it's going to have interiors, and access to higher up spectator seats and so on, then it'll be made for the battlefield. No palm trees in the middle though SniperGen, personally, I see nothing that's wrong with your map, I've run around it and it could be a pretty fun map, I didn't go around looking for flaws however, so i'm not sure about getting stuck on objects and so on.

Thx Otreum, 1 download woohoo Anybody else having trouble logging in your account? I have Far Cry 2 for xbox 360, and for this contest I got Far Cry 2 for PC 2nd hand (thought my pc couldn't run it but it can), and I often get disconnected, I think somebody has my CDKey... Or when it finds servers, connects and than disconnects when the map is loaded, really annoying. God I want to play my map, how fast do servers upload it or how does it work? How do you get recognition? 2 hours after I uploaded my map there are already 10 new maps that remove you from the most recent list. Bleh.

Ok! almost finished my map so i thought i would post some teaser pics, its for the Real World Landmarks Award and i have tried to make Hoover Dam as playable as i could so it has changed a bit also without 2 different water levels it looks a bit silly.. but nothing i could really do about that tbh! so instead i made the dam mostly dried up... Anyways! here it is so far! probably release the map in tonight or tomorow... Sorry about all the images :o but yea i had to sacrifice accuracy to the real thing for gameplay in some cases! dont kill me ;o! Snipergen: u might need to do some port forwarding! check the farcry 2 forums.. there is a sticky their for the pc port list. --

I tried to make the map look like it wasnt set in africa (as stonehenge is in England) and i think i have done that pretty well heh.

I was wondering when someone would do the stonehenge since all that's requires are some rocks to be slapped down to look like the stonehenge.
XaKu XaKu	Dec 30 2008, 12:31am Anchor
yer nice and easy for the first farcry map otreum i might be wrong but i thought i caught a slight bit of sarcasm in you message, tbh the farcry editor is so easy to use that any map you do is basically just a few things slapped down.. id prefer it if i could make my own props like i normally would as i use unreal ed alot, but i cant. I wanted to make my map look like it wasnt farcry as i think most of the maps so far are just a bunch of the farcry assets spammed all over the place without any imagination.. anyways im off to bed.

Otreum	Dec 30 2008, 12:39am Anchor
Yup, I did a quick mockup of the stone henge last week but figured it was a bit boring to look at, so I scrapped it. Anyway. I just got back home and the bloodiest acre is getting rebuilt from scratch since it was too different to my reference material and I wanted to make it as close as possible to the real thing. Unfortunately it's impossible to make it exactly like the real land mark, however I do want to make it as close as I possibly can, and also make it so that players are able to run around and access different areas properly. The focus is not so much on gameplay with this, but to try and remake the actual land mark the best I can. However I will try and implement gameplay into it aswell for those with heftier systems. SO...back to the drawing board

lol, well, put that brain to overdrive, not many days left now I just tried to do a near full interior of the colosseum, however It just doesn't work with it being so round and all the objects used being so straight. It's a darn shame. I also cannot do much of an interior with my current version that you all saw the teaser for, so this colosseum is not going to be 100% accurate with entry points and so on. I may need to use ladders and stuff to get up to higher points instead Making this into a gameplay map is a bit difficult as it's so massive in scale (it almost takes up the whole map ). I have quite a few options gameplay wise, but as I said..it's very difficult. Especially since there is the issue with object view distance and what not which can make the map look crappy unless you're in the editor flying around. SO, I think that this is going to end up being more for show than an actual playable map. I've already got my gladiatorial map for those who want to play a gladiator style arena anyway.

Wow lots of progress in here! Stonehenge is pretty cool ^^ The Reel Room looks good too! razorb it would be cool if you could set off those pipes, in your top image, so they roll into enemies.

razorb: I always loved seeing hoover dam-based maps in games, whether they be official levels or user-created. Yours looks pretty dam nice, lol. However, I do have a small suggestion for you: I know you mentioned that you had to sacrifice(for the sake of gameplay) some of the dam's faithfulness to the real thing...... Now, I know that all of the the levels, no matter which category, will have "gameplay" as one of their scoring criteria. However, from looking over the rules it seems as though if you are entering into the "real-world location" category, you'll receive a higher overall score(and hence a better chance of winning), if you put gameplay as the last priority and make the level look as close a facsimilie to the actual hoover dam as possible. Yes, you may get a lower score in the gameplay department than you would've otherwise, but as I said, it appears the "real-world location" entries will be rated higher based on how accurately they depict the real McCoy. Just something you might want to think about. Whatever you decide to do with it, please post a link when you have finished this map.....I seriously can't wait to play it!!

In (team) deathmatch play, do both teams have equal advantage? /10 Fun Factor: Enjoyable? Do you lose track of time while playing? / this is why i sacrifice accuracy of the thing for gameplay ya know ... i didnt sacrifice it to the point of not even seeing what the map was based on... but enough so its fun (i think! havent played with anyone!) also its hard to get it that accurate with the props we have without making it look completely ugly but yea thanks again! i will post it very soon dont worry Bunnyjen yea it would! shame nothing like that is possible in fc2 Oh yea.... is there going to be a limit on the amount of maps you enter? as i can see that the Wat The ?£$% category is going to have a major spammage of Shitness and its going to be pretty painful for the judges to play through em properly ya know infact i can see it affecting the amount of time they spend on testing the oproper maps that ppl spent hours and hours on... but yea should be maximum of 3 maps or something :P! keep it up everyone!

Hey admjg8! thanks alot for the comment but yea i dont see it like you do because after lookin at the 4 categories there is only 1 based on the visual side of things but 3 on gameplay

Aesthetics: Visual fidelity/accuracy of design /10
Functionality: Does it work? /10
Balance: Is it fair? In (team) deathmatch play, do both teams have equal advantage? /10
Fun Factor: Enjoyable? Do you lose track of time while playing? /

this is why i sacrifice accuracy of the thing for gameplay ya know ... i didnt sacrifice it to the point of not even seeing what the map was based on... but enough so its fun (i think! havent played with anyone!) also its hard to get it that accurate with the props we have without making it look completely ugly
but yea thanks again! i will post it very soon dont worry

Bunnyjen yea it would! shame nothing like that is possible in fc2

Oh yea.... is there going to be a limit on the amount of maps you enter? as i can see that the Wat The ?£$% category is going to have a major spammage of Shitness and its going to be pretty painful for the judges to play through em properly ya know infact i can see it affecting the amount of time they spend on testing the oproper maps that ppl spent hours and hours on... but yea should be maximum of 3 maps or something :P!
