Blood Bath has been done already, I don't know about Challenger. I'm creating a destructible tower to put in the middle of Ground Zero to block the gold expansion and also give vision over middle. If you want to expand there, you forfeit the vision :D | ||

I've got the functionality working, i'm just having some trouble with the animations ![[image loading]](http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/445/sc22010061323592544.jpg) Here you can see that I am attacking it, it's providing vision, and I can't build under it :D | ||

However I feel like 12 might be a few too many patches of high yield. It is giving you over twice the amount of minerals that a normal expo would be giving you. Even though you're sacrificing the sight from the tower, maybe something around 1.6 - 1.8 might be more balanced. (I'm fully aware on actual in game testing can prove this either way). Just something to keep in mind . The map looks really clean cut though, I like that in maps with urban tilesets. | ||

It may go down to 8 if testing proves that 10 is still too much. | ||

There are a few texture issues I've been meaning to fix... New screenshot of Redemption is up, I have the map half textured/doodaded. You can see all the features anyway: ![[image loading]](http://i48.tinypic.com/fjhox5.jpg) | ||

![[image loading]](http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/9442/altarofdarkness2nddesig.jpg) This is my alpha design for Altar of Darkness. What do you guys think? Should I change it or finish it? Features: Can't build in the red textured area between the natural choke and open middle area. (checkerboarded so you can place creep tumors and sensor towers, but nothing else) The cliff around the 3rds will be non-pathable Here's a poll for everyone who likes to lurk instead of post: Poll: Altar of Darkness Finish the map! (18) The design is crap, I'd never play this (8) Change <something> and it will be good (post) (0) 26 total votes Your vote: Altar of Darkness (Vote): Finish the map! | ||

Not completely sure what the problem is, but this is the only map i 've had the problem on. My guess, would be all of the fire effects on the map. The ramps in the top right and bottom left also had holes in them. I've played tons of games vs AI on it and never had this issue, so I'm not sure what to say. And what do you mean holes? Can you post screenshots? EDIT: I just played it. My framerates were fine, but I saw the holes :/ I'll try to fix these but I don't know if it's a game bug or not, since the minerals in the middle of the map also disappeared :/ EDIT 2: I fixed the holes, doodads and mineral patches in the middle. I have no idea why the map would perform poorly, the fire effects are just lava splash doodads and don't look to be demanding at all | ||
