Haha, my secret is out. I used those floating trees to make leafy shadows cover the map in order to create contrast and give it a forest vibe. On low graphic settings they don't do anything but on medium (with shader quality to high) or higher they create a canopy effect.

EDIT: For those who want to see what I mean there are examples in the map thread.

Well I think we should(LoS) should start recruiting cause TPW is gonna take a lot of place considering the fact that 2/3 of the mappers on TL are in TPW :/ .

Tbh I think those shadows would be quite distracting on higher resolution^^
But who plays on anything higher than low anyway

The thing that would be fun is having cloud effect, so the shadows move this would certainly add a flavor to a some map.

While fiddling with the lighting I found that you can pretty much turn down/off (not sure of right word) the shadows from the trees. I turned them down to what I thought wasn't distracting but they can be almost totally removed while keeping the trees in place.

I bet you could approximate this by using a similar floating giant doodad technique, then using triggers to make them slowly rotate/translate. Plus you can use triggers to adjust the lighting parameters themselves, to mimic cloud darkness passing by. I'm so gonna play with this now.

Yeah, but we couldn't use it in a melee map , cause it would use trigger.
