Yeah, I know. I have no idea how to create shadows or lightmaps, and no-one will tell me how,l or even give links to any sort of tutorials I haven't yet done the textures, hence it's a WIP.

More frapsing:
YouTube - Guinea Bay
I know, the sunglare isn't in the right direction. I tried moving the sun direction, but that made the water go pink & the ground look very srange. Also, any idea how the soldier & vehicle shadows could be made longer?

I'm 90% certain that there must be lightmapping tutorials etc in this mapping forum from when I was asking for help with Cretan Village - search back a few years...

The Map self isn't bad
For the Lightmap, it give a tool, which you can do it easy.

A question to your Video @ Youtube.
What's the first song called? It's from Borat, isn't it?

Admire it is, then.

Cola, seeing as it is the Beach, I think a few of those fit in nicely. And it's really hard to find something specific from the thousands of objects just by their names.

Thanks Badseed. I have to say this isn't the best-looking map I've done, mainly because I did it in a relatively short time. But getting shadows for Lebanon & Saaremaa will make those two look much better. And Desert Blitz is just a fun small map, even with the idiot bots.

I've been doing some fixing. Map now has medic & ammoboxes, green water, the sun is properly positioned, axis airfield has been modified, and the carriers are now subs.

Compare Before:


to After:


Still to do are shadows to the map, and trying to get the object & player shadows to be longer. Does anyone have any idea how to do either of these?

Once I get those done I'll upload the new version.
