A little something I am working on

This is a 2v2 multi player map so far the height map is done, it would be nice to be able to have bridges in warzone for the central zone. It's designed to negate rush tactics through forcing the attacking player through choke points that are easy to defend. Hopefully when cyborg transports are fixed it will have some interesting airlift style play.

i like the layout
there's a fix for cyborg transports

afaik2 bridges was a (disabled) feature for the original warzone, but it has never been completed. the current game mechanics (moving, path finding, etc..) is not ready

Bridges weren't just disabled, they were only partially implemented by Alex M. at Pumpkin.
From what I remember in the source, it also seems that they were having problems with it.

Lets just say, they could be used to uber cheat in a MP game.
However, as elio said, it has been fixed awhile ago.

Ha I thought there was some kind of bug, I like cyber transports but I never used them too much, I sometimes turtle then send out 6-7 transports full of pwnage-cyborgs (scourge heavies)... And I can tell you that they Really pwn! xD
So i think it would be great to play in this map with transports, like kipman said.

Just like doom3r I thought there was a bug, since I have some vague memories of not being able to load any cyborgs into my transports some versions back.

Included a teaser pic... as I have spent all day texturing and still only about 50% done lots of tidying up and adding elevation intrest to do.

Looks good, I like your style.
Do you have any problems with edge brush, or are you texturing the whole map manually ?

edge brushes mostly I am worried that it may not be using the correct terain attributes however as at one point I used the water brush and the level of the water areas didn't sink to sea level.

Ok so this is the initial version and some editor files to play with its pathfinding will be improved thanks to the people that posted in my last map thread however to do this I will have to start from the height map again so it will take quite a while. It's quite playable at the moment just units need hand holding a little. I played against the stock AI and only barley won after giving it some time to build up so the ai isn't jamming too bad (pretty much constant stream of units from it).
