Hey guys this is noMatt.
I am happy to release an early alpha of my map. Its not done, but the overall shape of the map is done and you can tell me if you like it.
I
I have no real name for that so please post name suggestions.

Things to do:

-add houses (model + texturing, until now only the streets and the lanterns are done)
i added one test house but this wont be final ;)
-do the sides (model units this is going to be a non star wars map)
-add shadowvolumes to existing models
-add random weather
-add random sides
-add ai controlled units
-add ambushes
and much much more

I promise you will have fun, in the end version.
Please play only the assualt mode because its the mode i actually tested.

I know the screens dont look impressive so far but the end version will be impressive.
Expect a final release in 6 months or so.

Please note that I dont call this "a map"
its a concept ;) So dont expect fun gameplay or anything else.
But please give it a try anyway I need feedback in order to make this a good map.

There's so many different possible choices when it comes to lighting it wouldn't really make sense to define a default setting.

Also, for the love of all that is good in this (and your) world, use a different sky texture...
The yavin sky only looks good for yavin...

Looks good and interesting, would look 100000 times better with a new sky and lighting as the others mentioned, but since this is the alpha and such, great job :D I honestly think this would look great with a night sky, would fit great with the lighthouse and lightpoles. Lastly, unless ur reserving a lot of space for buildings and props, u should make more hills and dips around near the road areas.
