Jahled Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 Can importing a new galaxy map be done? Wouldn't it be cool to revise the galaxy map, especially now that there appears to be an 'official one' (>source: The Star Wars Encyclopedia published by DeAgostini). Aside from enlarging the galaxy, we could perhaps have two new inclusions (mainly involving the tactical battle): First, the grave yard of Alderaan as a system (not that you can do much on it though, besides perhaps having mines in the asteroid fields....)Second, how about the concept of 'deep space' where you can hide fleets. The tactical picture could be a picture of the galaxy (> like the end of The Empire Strikes Back). Perhaps deep space systems would be randomly placed systems across the game map, or buffers inbetween every inhabital system...(my mind is harking back to an old role-playing game called 'Traveller' in the 80's with it's cute hexgonal map. For every star system there were four or five empty regions of space). http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisMiggell Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 We talked about this somewhere else, though i can't remember where. We could see if it's possible to create new sectors, and hence planets, then we could not put a planet in and leave it blank. By increasing the number of these we could have say half the map as totally blank but you could still send a fleet there? I don't know if that can be done, i'll give it a try over the weekend.

Trejiuvanat Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 In the Strategy.dll I successfully changed some bmp to make a certain planet type loook like an asteroid field. In Rebed I changed some systems to be asteroid fields, I substituted Ghorman with Alderaan, and removed the colonized check, it will s till have resources but no population, still in tactical battle there will still be a planet not an astoroid field... http://www.swrebellion.com/~jahled/Trej/banner.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisMiggell Posted December 31, 2002 Share Posted December 31, 2002 What happens if you go back to a system where you've already blown up the planet? And then end up having a battle there? What do you see in the tactical screen instead of a planet? Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine...

Jahled Posted January 9, 2003 Author Share Posted January 9, 2003 ...emmmm........emmmm.....good grief, it would seem in all the long years i've been playing Rebellion I don't think i've ever had a battle at a destroyed planet. Now i'm real curious..... if there is an asteroid field, there's a DLL somewhere; if so, there's an image to exploit.... http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_La_forge Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 Interesting idea. The AI never followed me to an abbandoned asteroid field. I will check it out in multiplayer mode. But as I can remember, there is no picture of rocks in the tactical game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vakundok Posted January 9, 2003 Share Posted January 9, 2003 The game has both strategic and tactical pictures for the asteroid field, I really do not know why it canot be selected in RebEd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahled Posted January 9, 2003 Author Share Posted January 9, 2003 This, know we must, yesterday! Go! Go to your multiplayer game! Instruct your opponant! Details of the outcome you will reveal! The mysteries of the asteroid field find you shall. We shall speak again very soon!

ElvisMiggell Posted January 10, 2003 Share Posted January 10, 2003 Come on guys, how cool could this be, battling in front of an asteroid field, with a DS in for good measure. I don't have multiplayer capability, so please let me know asap!!! Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine...

Lord_La_forge Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 Well it does work, but it's not very beutiful.. The screenshot I've made is from an ideal distance...

Renx215 Posted March 4, 2003 Share Posted March 4, 2003 It would be pretty cool if the maps were a little bit more true taking in consideration the PT plus any other EU sources. Considering from some of the characters are EU, there is more room to play around a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Scathane Posted March 20, 2003 Share Posted March 20, 2003 Is it just me, or are there huge discrepancies between the "map" used in SWR and other (official) galaxy maps out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
