For those of you who don't know, Ilum is a planet where the Jedi get their crystals for their lightsabers. I changed Estrek Canyons to Ilum because It looks more like Ilum. I will get a video or pics when I can.

Heh heh I found the Easter Egg. I won't post it, because that'll spoil the surprise for other players.

Nice xD Unit 33 is the official champion of the Easter Egg in the map.  :tu:

I also spent ages trying to work out if there was a way out of the canyon. Bear with me I may find a way yet!

EDIT:

Done it!

 :ohmy: Very nice, I didn't even try to get out cause I thought I made it thoroughly impossible.  :blink:

Nice map, but few things still need to be fixed:
1. You got overlighted area around player, so you need to fix your .SKY file.
2. You forget to add rainshadow regions, so you got snow in tunnels.
3. You reskin droids, but you forget to reskin lowrez for them.
4. infantry stack at base, so you need to make more barriers.
5. Gameplay: this is a "brige type" map, so all battle hapens in the middle spot, and all these beautyful area stay unenvolved in action. Possible solution:
1. Make a way around.
2. Add some vehicles, which can drop infantry behind enemy line.

Also, minimap and movie cud be nice...
Beauty is, the way to perfection.

Glory to Ukraine!  :mf:

Needs more cowbell too while you're at it.

1. Hmm.. It didn't seem to bright to me. I'll see what I can do.
2. I didn't forget, I couldn't figure out how. :/
3. I don't understand at all what was going on with the droids.. I reskinned the lowres and first person but some skins wouldnt change.
4. Agreed
5. Hm.. I will figure something out.

Thanks for the tips, I was already planning for there to be a 2.0 but this will help me a lot!

@Unit 33: American English please ;P

I think he is referring to this



1. This is not an estetic question, the matter is in big difference between far see terrain, and lighter terrain under feet. The .SKY file is surely incorrect.
2. Just make a region, and choose type "rainshadow". O, yes, and you must never rotate it, or effect is gone.
3. Try rename lowrez .msh.
