    New map 'Save The Brahma' by akilyoung PS3

    Hey Guys, I made a new map yesterday, The map is a 'V' shape that has 3 main choke points, There is a tight short cut from one side to the other and 2 buildings with roof top access. Heres the info:

    This is a 'New Dehli' style map set in ancient India. Two price brothers are dueling over the king's estate creating an upheaval in the royal family.

    The poverty stricken village stands helplessly in between the brothers. War spreads through the town as the villagers are trying my earn a living in the market.

    The villagers encircle the Brahma cow God on the beach to protect it from the blood shed. One of the villages yells 'Save the Brahma'!!!! Which was mistakenly heard by one of the princes as 'Save the drama'.

    The slaughter of every village member ensued. Man, woman and child.









    Heres the video:

    Thanks Lead! By marvel im assuming you meant marble? I agree, I wish there was more of that texture and more of the gold from the picture frames I used on the top of those. Not enough shiny stuff....

    You can see in the bottom pic how much occ I had to put in, and it still doesn't run the best. Most parts are ok, but when you look at the marble columns and the big domes, it dips into the orange and red territory. I watched a couple matches in it and it seemed playable, cause people weren't quitting and were getting kills. I think I need to actually play it though...

    Dang phone yeah I meant marble. I did notice a slowdown but thaught it was the video. I guess play with occ a bit I don't think anybody knows how to use them perfectly. I try making cylinder occ peices that fit tower closely by rotating and copying them . also in the video I don't think your playing area goes under the dome peices so cut the backs off the ones that you couldn't see from a playing erea.

    Well, you can see the whole dome, cause gameplay is from front to back. If you check in the editor, I have half buildings that are just a facade, theres no detail out of the player perspective. I might add some occ in the mountain and fake forest in the middle of the 'V'. Im sure there is some more 'trimming' I can do, but the dang marble columns and domes took up so much memory, especially the gold picture frame domes...

    I have to figure out some way to cut the fat off without losing the feel, cover and gameplay of the map...
