It's been a while.
"Crashing Waves" has been worked on for a while and has been brought up to Working Version 2, its in the same download link in the OP.
- Wayy more decals
- Wayy more erosion
- Wayy more heightmap differences
- Wayy less early reclaim
Enjoy.

Say someone loses the ground war they can take hold of the islands to keep up?

They are navy-proof. Top island isnt much, but it's also not big, but if you get it, it can give you an advantage. If you lose land you lose.
And yes its just cut off version of Shards so I cant change the map, just mexes.

It's quite literally an offcut of the 40km map Shards, so yes, they are protected

We would test how great map are, and we would have a tourney without prepared BO...

just an idea though...

Hey keyser, yes it is an idea that has been talked about, i am however concerned about player count, many people seem to find placing a folder in another folder very difficult and thus decide not to even try,

but we will see, i suppose ;P

Hey all, 3 maps have been updated, here is some changes
~Barrenlands and icestars have the floating ice rocks removed
~Barrenlands actually works
~Farce has been corrected to the latest version
~ mexes have been moves away from the slope to prevent issues when building near them,
~ spawn slots 1 and 2 are now where 5 and 6 once were, so a ladder game will have players spawning on the far sides as intended
Barrenlands has been shaken to ensure mexes line up correctly
Barrenlands has had its mexes moved in a little to allow acu building them without walking

make sure to erase the old map if you had it in you map foler, and then redownload it from the same link! pm me if something is broken

Thanks!~

Damn it, manread. I was going to say we should go into all these maps with no prior knowledge for the BO15 : /

So I decided to test Crashing Waves, aside from too many wrecks on main island and the ledges leading to some of the mexes its pretty good. It plays a lot like Seraphim Glaciers.

Is there a way of having the mex/hydro locations on the pictures you post? Reclaim would be nice too.

Farce and schloob have the same reclaim/mexes, and for a snapshot of the reclaim on barrenlands/icestars, look here: viewtopic.php?f=53&t=11726&start=40#p125964

FAF generates the map previews with mex/hydro/etc locations when you upload them, but i cannot upload them, so i take screenshots from the editor instead..

I wish i had some preview videos or replays to show you, but to view replays on the maps you actually need the maps and well, i guess you could just look for yourself by then..
