Ok, News update, it's 3:18am GMT -07:00hours, aka, Mountain timezone North America,

I just did a mini beta test with Firedragon04, and well, the map IS coming along with some new stuff, BUT, there is the issue of FPS lag.

My suggestion, BIG SUGGESTION, not to be taken lightly at all.....

Find out TOTAL number of poly's for the entire map IF POSSIBLE, aka, even if it's just a rock, it has poly's....

Try to take total number of poly's, and "drop down" to 20% of original total. It might lower the fps lag ALOT. Just a thought, because random 2 or 3fps kinda sux, and I don't have integrated.

Everyone remember Autumn Slay? Awesome map, extreme detail, but also for some ppl, uber laggy, but it was "stable" lag.

On pyroclastic so far, I could LOOK straight down, or up, to get max fps, lol. but then, evey 10-30 seconds, it would spike to 1-2fps.....lucky if it just slowed to 6....
and that wasn't "reloading" the guns or what-not, it was just makin sure I stood completely still.

Sorry for the "negative" feedback, but as a beta tester, I felt obligated to detail the report thoroughly.

Everything is very high polygon, you could make that lightsaber in under 1000.

So yea. Ok. Pie, you can help us, and Ill PM you when things progress.

With that saber thing, you should ask Matty. He choses the models to use.

I do indeed like Xe Bec's light sabers ive seen them ingame (he showed me) id like to use those, maybe if we actually re design the map a little make it more star wars like. I think me and xe bec will be willing to do that for a while
