How do I get the editor? I follows the link but it said 'Page could not be found' and the patches wouldn't work..

wow, can you actually play these maps with your B&W2 profile?

Well have been tinkering with the lighting (or rather, breaking it) on a version of the above map that I extended; thus:

dawn - about 5am

mid-morning, about 11am. Took a while before I felt it actually looked cold

This took the longest - 2pm, and I think it has a reasonable 'just snowed' look

Sunset:

And a late night moonscape to finish - not too happy with the night-time but still tinkering

When you enter light-editing mode, does anyone know what the sphere with the yellow and blue rotatable balls in it does exactly?

Again, nice. I like how you've done the grass.

Try this link for the Land Registration. It's in a sub-domain and the server doesn't doesn't like to forward requests to it.

Nice one Kays! And thanks I've been working out how the lighting all works, I have a timeline of different stages in the day but think I'll post again when there's actually something substantial

I gotta quit with the thread hogging. But the editor is too much fun!

Incidentally Kays, or Daxter or anyone else; you wouldn't know what's happened to the land number registration on the modding wiki would you? It keeps redirecting me to the main page

Nice job, keep it up.

Cheers Mort

I made some more piccies. Still trying to make the colours a little more vibrant but this is what's there so far:

The textures look a tad on the flat side; I think perhaps some haze would resolve the problem much like the final aztec land.

No-one's here, so I hereby declare this my own private thread. Maybe I'll make a flag

Finally I got me round to actually trying out the mod tools, after my first attempt showed what was really needed - patience... Anyhows! My first real effort (after a fair bit of practice )

I'm not too happy about the line you can see in the rocks on the beach in that last picture but it's getting late, and I haven't eaten so I don't want to take another screenie just now. I'm going to try making lands from various lattitudes, as this is probably the only type of landscape I could do in that length of time at the moment - more practice!

Will try to get this thread re-stickified now that I've posted in it

I have questions, after you make a map in the editor how do you play it? And where does it install to when you've installed it.

Have fun making maps and if you wish to script them as well, check out the scripts in the library at www.kayssplace.com/scripts/index.php.

harmonixer:
Thanks. I do like a bit of gore every now and again. I'm having problems with that map though. It'll load happily enough but now I need to write a script to spawn villigers/soldiers every time you click the idol. Ah well, it'll be fun to figure out. Here's another map I'm working on. A copy of one of the original skirmish maps. I'm gonna do all of them as bases for other people to md/script

Is this map off Black and white 1, if i'm not corrected?
