hey this will be the defenders base for my new soon to be VIP gametype/map pack, 'Extraction'. Hopefully the VIP gametype will be turned on its head for this so, fingers crossed. anyhow, heres the base plan... ive done it i power point for 2 reasons. 1. even though i have google sketch up 7, it dont know how to set it up so i can work. which leads to my next reason... 2. i dont know how to get the components for sandbox on it. if anyone could help me with this i will be greatly appreciated this map is still in the design stage, hence why it is pretty empty and crappy EDIT: ive tried to make it from my design and this is what i came up with ignore the two turrets in this one
I can't really tell what the game will be like from what you have here, maybe add a description about what its going to play like. Also, here is a big compliation by Squidhands all about sketchup, including the components and links to tutorials.
Click the link above for the Canvas, even if you have the other one. this one has all the Sandbox and Foundry objects avaliable for use. Mick said it himself. Now to help you with the components you so desire, they are part of the special canvas in the link above/in the one you already have/in the canvas you have yet to download. Clicky Here for more information so you know for later, I explain how to get the template and how to access the objects, but if you already have the template and don't wish to download the template above, just read it to understand. I also cover why your computer can be slow running a 3-D software program, and some tips to reduce the lagginess if affected. Hope that helps.
You should shelter the Warthog in a garage, not only will it look cool, but it will protect it as well. If this gametype is gonna be what I think its gonna be, The warthog will probably be very important and might be the target of early 'pot-shots'* *Speculation
Also, when people go and ride the mongoose the goose will most likely fall over and have to be flipped when you drive off the scaffolding. Test and if it foes happen, maka sort of slope around the scaffolding in the dunes. Also what Jockey said about a garage would be helpful and maybe Fusion coils near the MGT if it's too overpowering for Gameplay.
ok things i will change 1) cover the hog 2) test the mongeese 3) add more scenery i will update when i have a chance
