Jungle New Beta!!!

[-=25ID=-Marine]

Changes for version 1.1:
-Did some tree thinning to hopefully cut down on lag problems.
-Set view distance scale to 200 as recommended by -R|F-Glitch.
-Thicker fog to cut down on lag and give it a more vietnam feel.

Like the last beta, if a few people could test this map for framrate/lagging problems and post feedback. Thanks!

Wow what an awsome map. The BF2 engine can handle this a ton more than BF1942 was able to. Great work man.

-=25ID=-Marine - its very good, but have a couple of points:


River Flow Direction - the water appears to flow to and from the banks rather than downstream.
Battle Area needs refining - Some areas are awkwardly out of the battle area - e.g. the back of the temple
Visibility for chopper - Its really hard to use the chopper in these conditions although this may be you intention.

very nice its just has too much trees, keep it like it is just try to designate for specific walking points.

[solodude23]

Yeah the chopper is pretty much useless. You can't see clear landing zones, the gunners can't see anything, and there pretty much is no good place to land.

this helio not being able to do anything in my opinion is a good thing.. keep it more infantry oriented... last thing you want is a blackhawk ownage map. i agree also on the footpaths... cause its kinda chaotic trying to figure the right way to walk.

[solodude23]

I think the amoundt of brush/trees is pretty good, but make some of the paths a bit more obvious.

[GanjaTron]

another thing i would suggest is tonning down the grass, i love it everywhere but performance reasons i would kick it down, and the clipping of the tree at the temple turned out really well. gives a nice effect to it, also whats the point to the map, as in why are the americans in the middle of it?

Maybe make the skydive a bit higher at the start as it took a death to realise that I had to open the chute myself :)
