X1203 Island (for TSR and Normal TS), by Dad_A_Tude Options

[Bittah Commander]

Author: Dad_A_Tude

I mentioned not being able to get into mapping past few months in the OMC thread, but that has changed. Amazing what switching to an old laptop can do. I've become a commercial mapper. I work on the map during TV commercials. lol.

So here are 7 screenshots to show ya that the old man isn't dormant any more.
Some of the areas shown have been tweaked a little since the pics taken, but thought you all might like to check them out.

This maps original release is planned for TSR. With the switch to my laptop it will be done for regular TS first, but, more than likely, only the TSR version will be released to start.

Map Info:
Size = 200 X 200
Overall layout = 80% (6 of 8 base areas done.)
Detail = 70%
Triggers = 0% (alot planned)
Will include 3 modded structures.
Tib silos adjacent settings at 3. (Can cross a road now.)
Civilian silos worth a good bit of $ when captured and sold.
Light/Guard towers will have a sniper in them.
A tutorial.ini will be included for custom text messages.

Commander, The surviving mutants from the previous battles have confiscated the technology left behind and learned to use it. They have vowed to protect their island from intruders. They are not happy you're here to do battle.

Hopefully in about a month I'll be looking for a couple beta testers before I start the triggers. This map should be a comp stompers delight.

Thanks for reading an old fools ramblings,
Tude

Map name: TSR X12-03 Island
Players: 2-8
Map size: 200 X 200
Mod required: TSR
Game play: Skirmish AI Comp Stomp
Note: You will need a pretty fast system to run this.

The surviving mutants from the battle before have saved the lives of infantry left for dead. With their help they confiscated and rebuilt the technology left behind and were taught to use it. They have vowed to protect their island from intruders. They are not happy you're here to do battle.

If you dislike neutral involvement, you won't like this map.
Patrol units that will fight AI or human.
Sniper gaurd posts that have armor peircing bullets. Fire at both vehicles & infantry.
Heavy defenses protecting certain areas.
Over 100 capturable structures. Including capturable Hospitals that will heal infantry &
capturable Armories that will train them.
Other little suprises
One hint: Destroy a few civilian buildings
Explore, Capture & Destroy to find the rest.

This file is named EXPAND60.mix. 4 files required, thanks to SMIFFGIG for explaining this to me. Makes it easy to delete.

Two known glitchs:
1. The normal sounds from building & such will sometimes cause you to miss certain speech triggers in the beginning of this map.
2. The ION cannon strike will slow game down to almost a halt. It will take a minute or so.

I have had alot of fun and quite a few good laughs during the creation of this map. Alot of testing, asking questions and reading forums too. Map was started in Dec 2003. I've worked a long time on this map.

TSR X1203 Lite removes the story line. Patrol units still exist & most of the triggers.

I hope everything works OK. I've tested it and all seemed to work. If you happen to find any bugs, please let me know.
