I do have plans for Scrin in Coop missions but the priority now is
to create the AOW style maps, at least thats what everyone wants.

When we got "enough maps" ingame and all the units and buildings in
place as much as possible i will start looking at creating Coop stuff for TCW.

And yea, i gotto redo that map a bit, and add some variety into the
model placement like trees and crystals. (Mauler probly has some
nice ones i can use Smile

Smile

)

I tried the map ingame and the fps drop is too big Sad

Sad

too many
crystals Sad

Sad

I'll have to figure a way to create a decent tiberium
crystalized field without too much of a fps hit as it causes now.

We'll get it sorted i hope Smile

PS: On a sidenote: We are still looking for testers at this time so
if you are interested by any remote chance then join irc.mp-gaming.com in channel #mp-tcw Smile

Use LOD for the crystals- should help a lot. I know APB and Reborn (I think?) use a lot of terrain objects, but have them all using various levels of LOD. It also depends on how you texture the objects, too... UVW unwrapped objects tend to fare better than those with various textures slapped on.

Objects with a single texture and mesh > objects with a lod.
Although a second lod with a single pass texture (no reflect detail) at a distance would be a good idea.

Hi W Logo, long time no see (If that reflect effect is bump mapping make sure your texture for the bump mapping is .tga instead of .dds (unless you plan on releasing this only for 4.0) stock ren can't load .dds as a bump mapping layer).

You have way too much time on your hands...

At least it wasn't 2,500 trees, bushes and ferns placed over a 600x300 piece of hilly terrain, that says you have too much time on your hands. Especially if you go back though and start rotating them all to match the slope of the ground.

The WW logo is fixed. Zunnie forgot to add the TGA file into the editor cache, and the crystals have there reflection as an additive shader. Just begun the process of creating a new model with LOD enabled in which give us better performance with multiple models loaded ingame. Thanks for the feedback Jerad. Smile

Those crystals look far too tiled. Try making some variations on them to break up the tiling.

Or even just rotating them would help tremendously I think.

I ALREADY SAID THAT YOU FAGGOT >:[

But yeah, the same can be said for all props. I actually recommend not having so many props in general, or at least not so plopped down like that... maybe try having a few trees/etc built into the actual map? I dunno, I hate levels that just have a dickton of props with a sort of "base" level.

It just reminds me of that one map where it was field but with a lot of random tree props placed in between, and had no active WF. It's just.. lazy.

The least he could do is rotate the trees or something.

The map that I had fixed up, had the trees built into the w3d and had variation between the props but zunnie removed them in favor of having separate tiles for them.

Usually I just place all the trees the same, maybe rotating them as I place them, then I go into the tiles list and ctrl select random ones. Then I click the select button and then I do a replace selected to a different tree type, easiest way to put down random variation I find, it allows you to place them a bit faster than clicking make repeatedly.

, i like the crystal texture but perhaps an additive blend mode would look even better on them.

Colonel

Can you please put those uber huge images in a spoiler so they don't stretch the forum page? I would greatly appreciate it kind sir(s).

looks really cool, but seriously WTF is the point in the bridges between the spikes? They are kinda flat and boring. Make a mountain in between with tunnels or something interesting.

The map terrain was made by Aircraftkiller originally, i have his permission to use the level in TCW.
I resized it a bit so more buildings would fit on the terrain Smile

Smile

Textureing probably needs some work too still:

Here some screenshots of the map TCW_Snow WIPs and a final beta shot (last image):

Credit goes to dtrngd too as he originally made the terrain for APB Coop, i made the map double size and did the texturing and level setup.
