Re: [RELZ] OutpostAssault

So that's what you guys have been up to on the BI server. smile
Nice to see so many pitch in.  Nice work guys.



I won't be around tonight or on the weekend, so here's hoping that you guys will keep the map around for a while so we can all get to enjoy playing it.

Re: [RELZ] OutpostAssault

It was a really fun map when we tested it. We had some12 vs 12 I think. The bridges are great.

Re: [RELZ] OutpostAssault

Download works but when i want to extract one of the included files i get this:

Dll: C:\tools\WinZip\WZ32.DLL - 17.10.1998 07:00
Extracting to "C:\DOKUME~1\DARFLL~1\LOKALE~1\Temp\"
Use Path: no   Overlay Files: yes
skipping: OutpostassaultPUB/README.txt  unsupported compression method 9
error:  no files were found - nothing to do


When i try to download it with "Down them all" (Firefox Addon) i get a server error at once.

Anyone else got similar problems?

Re: [RELZ] OutpostAssault

I'm amazed. I don't know what the gameplay will be like, but visually, this might just be the most impressive FS ground map I've seen since Mos Espa. I love the atmosphere of the map and how you've creatively reused a lot of statics and added some new ones. I especially liked the use of lighting, and the combination of light snowfall and a starry sky. Almost gives the illusion it's the stars themselves silently falling.

Only thing I'm unhappy about is the use of 2142 statics, and the mixing of Rebel and Imperial materials (such as the rebel turrets outside the Imperial IO). Also not sure about the use of Ryloth statics around the Imperial ones.

Took a series of screenshots, will post them here when able. Bedtime now.

Re: [RELZ] OutpostAssault

The issue is either you've clicked "open" instead of "Save" when downloading, or you've tried to run the .exe without extracting it from the zip smile

Save the zip to your PC, extract it and then run the .exe in the place where the readme file specifies.
