Surprised anyone had a version of this map somewhere, the red ryloth rocks did infact have a working ice texture added to them for the ice bridge, it took a long time to get it perfect, so I am kinda saddened it is lost or not being loaded correctly...

I think the trick was the snow texture suffix or prefix.

It looks nice, I'm not sure how well it will actually "play" though. There are some obvious flaws, but most of them are workable. Most of the obvious issues are just observations which doesn't make(Panels in the snow, etc). The routes to some Cps don't seem gameplay friendly, but for a map that hasn't seen any testing, that's expected. I noticed there were some Red Ryloth rocks present acting as bridges, although the minimap showed them as white - I'm assuming thats a missing texture or something. I was going to add the snow-rock texture that Bandu supplied for Outpost Assault to them, but I decided it wasn't worth the effort at this stage of the maps development, even if it worked at all. Overall, this map is interesting even with its flaws, and is under consideration for I-CW inclusion (after some minor editing). One things for sure: You've made the RhenVar statics actually look interesting. In the other maps where they are present, there is nothing eyecatching or fun about fighting around them meaning they've been boring as hell up 'till now.

DOWNLOAD LINK. - Download the file, extract it then follow the instructions in the Readme. Simples

I have made some minor changes to this map already, the version I received had a broken sky (Darth Tater), which I've fixed. I've also generated the MD5Checksum files for the version I have so it works on a PB server. This map (64p Version) is currently on the BlackIntel ICW test server rotation (Along with Outpost Assault) if anyone wants to give it a go. Enjoy.

We'll be running this map and Outpost Assault on our testing server 1 hour before the CG on Saturday, unless we have our new regular server up and running by then.

EDIT: Link fixed. I'm sure it was working before. . .

Blind, I said it was gone in the other thread, if anyone was attentive they would have caught that.

This is the first time I've seen this, when did you make it?

You're the one that started talking about it, then TK moved it here.

They (FSDevs) should put up a list of all the maps that have been forgotten about or don't have time to test, etc.

By the way, I love infantry only maps, Encounter at Mos Entha is great but no one plays it, so I hope this one comes out. From what I have seen from the screenshots, your map looks great.

First off, TY, I love this. RhenVhar is one of the prettiest locales in FS and its a pity that the 2 maps we have are so very linear (in 32p anyaway, the 64p versions arent).
I really like the idea of infantry combat amidst the temple ruins, which again, are awesome.

One thing that always bothered me is the lack of snow and ice on the statics. In the picture above, there are numerous rooftop surfaces and boxes that are devoid of snow and ice, in a snowstorm.
Also there's an imperial console out in the open, with no snow on it.
If they needed to put a console right there, they'd probably put a tarp over it ( maybe a reskinned tatooine tarp?) which would be covered with snow and might have some awesome icicles.

Other than these, great work, keep going! I like what you're doing.
