Complete Bespin Platforms (SWBF)

Hey Yall! its finished!!! screenshots are below. this is a map that would be good for capture the flag or team deathmatch and even infect. I would need someone to set up bouncy pads to go back and forth from the outer platforms on either side so not all the action is in the bridges. other than that I have enjoyed making this map and I hope I got a good chance!!!! if there is anything that needs attention, ill fix it!

Background: for anyone who has never played star wars battlefront, this map is located in the skies of the gas planet bespin. it has a series of platforms connected by bridges on either side and one smaller platform in the middle that connects both sides. it is still one of my favourites when it comes to combat, and I play it first for warm-ups whenever i play battlefront.

the mapfile is too big to upload to this post so here is a link to it in drive:

I hope this can be a great contribution to mc-war!!!

 

Hey, thanks for your thoughts. I was planning on having someone set up bounce pads that go from one side to the other on the outer platforms so as to eliminate the tiny hallway. In the actual map itself you can fly a ship from one side to another or you can walk from one side to another.

 

Yup, that's what's planned!!!!

 

The point would be to get flags. Or to decrease the action load on the middle bridge.
I am trying to keep this as close to the real map itself so I won't add any extra things.
Why covers on the other bridges???? They already have arches which stop people from hitting from the side as much.

How would you suggest I make it more detailed? Keep in mind this is a copy of an actual map.

Thanks for your suggestions!!!!!!

 

What the heck is PMC???? I'm hurt. No I built this all.

 

Oh. I figured out what PMC is, planetminecraft.... Um I can find a few maps remotely like mine but could you give a link? I assure you I can prove that I built the map. I used iron and quartz. Not clay like all the ones I saw. And I have all the development maps on my computer. And you can check the user log in the map file and see that I (ds246810) am the only one there. I appreciate your concerns as it would be wrong for anyone to just copy a map. Thanks for checking me out!!!!

 

As I had stated before in the second paragraph:

I'd like to keep it as close to the actual map as possible. If it MUST be changed to get accepted then I will copy this map and make the changes.

Different blocks for each platform: maybe but this will surely take away from the whole thing being bespin (in my opinion at least). I could add some blocks like quartz or chiseled quartz for texture though.

Provide more edge protection: this is a great idea!!! In the actual game there is no knock back. But you CAN just walk off the edge by accident. And you CAN get blown off by a grenade.
Iron railings sound good.
What are archer ports?

Destroyed ships: did you mean they ARE the platforms for the sponges/bounce pads? Or for scenery? I personally don't like either of these ideas. But i will add them to the new map and see if people like them better.

Just some small details: can you please clarify?????

Roofs on top of each dome: do you mean on top of each platform? The small platforms are supposed to be landing platforms for x wings and cloud cars .etc I didn't build x wings because it looks too blocky.

As for more sniping perches: yes I think we can make this work. Maybe bouncy pads that go to the ties in the sky? Or other ships?

Your replies would be appreciated!!!!

Thanks for your feedback. I will start on the newer map as soon as possible!!!!

 

OK. Adding other unconnected platforms is a good idea, and 10 minutes in mcedit makes it easy! I'll do it soon along with the other additions!!! Thanks for your replies. Your opinion is appreciated!!!

 

OK thanks!!!!!
