[Map] Al Basrah Night Audit (2km) [WIP]

elemanoel · 2008-11-20, 12:50

Hello everyone!
My friends and me where thinking about doing a Night insurgency map like Al-Basara and we started working on it...
bad thing is that we dont know how to put lights and NVG on it...
any ideas...
Another thing is that we dont know what to do... wait for .85 or start now?
ANY HELP would be well recived

Pitch black night? How are the Insurgents gonna survive that, since they ovbiously have no NVG's?

Nightmaps are hard. Hard to play, hard to make (good). If you can get hold of PR 0.6, it had Bi Ming (Night) in it. Looking at those files may help you on your way.

And perhaps this tut can help you a bit further on your way: How to make your Day map a Night map - Official BF Editor Forums

Unfortunately you can't just say "make this daymap a nightmap", it takes a lot of tweaking of light settings, etc.

That Bi Ming at night just sucked doesn't mean all other nightmaps have to suck as well.

what i ment is not a PITCH BLACK night.. a starry big moon kind of night

and there is no problem with the amount of insurgents getting killed, since it does nothing to the team points

it would be good if the civ gets a NVG... just an idea...
and no... i am not saying HEY DEVS, go on do that... you miss understood me...
we are hands on it... what we need is some help on the ilumination thingie..
.thanks everyone for the intrest!

Nobody says so?
And btw, Bi Ming didn't suck at all. It was just too hard for the majority of players, hehehe.

I would make it hontestly early night, just enough so you can still see and get better gameplay.
