Help about my new map
I'm making an impressive map never seen before in Giants. I've put much effort and time in it but it's not finished by far. I want to know if Giants has a limited number of showing objects while ingame, because there's some objects that are visible in Giants edit but not ingame .
How i can solve that ?
-Also if someone knows how to put the light and textures in the custom maps i'll send my map and he will see truly what i am talking about.
Thanks.

i do believe giants has a limit of objects,, but with me then i had 200 SAM turruts and it crashed giants with the error: Object limit exceeded
but i noticed some rocket began to show no more trails when they were fired alot...
anyways could be that u have to much objects.... or wrong objects, i can take a look at it...

Re: Help about my new map
You'll be impressed how many of the same objects there are, but never get that error, it's only that ingame some objects are not displayed . Can i send you my map to take a look (send me a pm with your e-mail) ? It needs the light and terrain and water textures only.HellSnake(NL) wrote:well, i can add light and textures... it's easyGiants_Gamer32 wrote:I'm making an impressive map never seen before in Giants.

Sorry for double posting but, if anyone is interested in map here there's some screens:
-Note: i haven't finished the map, but at least 90% it's done (there's some missing buildings i'll put later in the downtown). Due to the limitations that have Giants on the amount of objects shown ingame i had to replace buildings with mountains, otherwise adding more objects would result in screwing up the other buildings (missing parts of them which looks really weird).
Empire State building and the view looking at the downtown.
Great view of the Twin Towers at the financial center.
Inside the WTC
At the observation deck of WTC 2 at 110th floor.
-Also, but it's possible that you don't recognise, in the map is included the Chrysler building, MetLife Building, United Nations building, Madison Square Garden, Times Square and the number 1 tourist attraction (Empire State Building) observation deck at 102th floor. And there's more .
Have you ever thought how many great things you can do with giants edit with imagination, effort and time ? That's the result .
-Finally i want to give thanks to HellSnake who helped me adding the light to the map, and Magnum for creating the map "Object test" which helped me a lot when selecting the objects. Without them i couldn't make this map. And the last thing: as this was a surprise for the GWD community i was thinking of releasing this map here when it's done , if the people like's it of course.

Impossible to do. Very hard. It would have to be maded of lot's of objects if it's done properly and as i said before i cannot add more because Giants has a limit on them, adding more crashes the existing buildings. And the statue would have to be out of the map (maybe the world) which is not possible. The terrain is so big and large that nearly crosses all the world. The buildings are real scaled to the mecc pov, so if you are gonna get to the top of the tallest buildings you'll need a gyro. The buildings surrounding the mecc base are one of the shortest one's in the map and you cannot reach the top of them if you use the jectpack from the ground without exploding grenades or mines. It's a 3 way map: mecc's base is near the financial centre, reaper base is in the water near Battery park and Kabuto spawns next to the Empire State building as he was King Kong.Exploderman wrote:What about one of the most symbolic buildings in New York? Statue of Liberty.
What else do you want now ? I've done lot's of work in it.
More images :

Have you ever seen steps in Giants ?
Ok, now i'm quitting cause i have to work more on the map .

Well, fortunately i have a copy that Hellsnake sended to me with the light included, and it includes all the object buildings (Twin towers, Empire State...). I only need to remake the mountain buildings and paint them but this may take some days .RichardMH wrote:You didnt make a copy of it and placed under another folder? or given it to someone? Did you use the 5.43 version? It alittle buggy so it might be the reason it got deleted.. try a undelete program.. just dont use the partition/harddrive that you have the map..
