Looks professional. Although some ice would look cool, don't go out of way to do it.

so this is just a re-skinned death island?

any chance you can strip the boost off the ghost (and I assume banshee too)? it fails online..

also, the skin on the hog's turret is kinda boring (there is a skin on it right?)

also, if that banshee has acrobatics (rolling and looping) can they go too? they never work properly online :/

It seems interesting, but I don't really see anything exciting or gameplay changing..

originally the idea was to remove all scenery, all weapon spawns, all player spawns, all vehicle spawns and redo everything to make a new game play experience. teleporter places were also going to be different.

those are SN's from when the project was just off the ground, when the bsp was finished. matooba had to import the death island bsp into 3ds max and fix everything and then texture and export.

Ok, so the huds are fixed and now we decided to take out guasshog cuz exploding hogs dont seem to be a whole lot popular.

TBH, a bit of remodeling would go a long way in this map.

look at snowtorn cove. it's essentially the same, but the way the snow goes over the edges of surfaces like thick snow instead of powder snow (which is what this looks like) and the odd bit of ice a round the place can really make it look sweet :)

1 more post, and you beat Dennis on the post-o-meter scale, Ganon.

But, anyway, it looks schweet. Maybe make a snow Ghost and Banshee. I have a Snowpion, but it's easy to make, just grayscale the Scorpion skin and put snow on it.

awesome map matooba.......i beta-ed it and my only really complaint is shouldnt the snowhog handle better in the snow than the other hogs? i mean i flipped the snowhog easier than i flipped the normal hogs, but other than that awesome job!!!!!

Not all of them but yes i had to make some custom ones.
I wasnt easy redoing this over in 3dsmax to get the textures on right either.
See Pic:

Took a lot of rebuilding the messed up geometry.
