That's right. Some new maps with extra speed thanks to FoulPlay for tips.
Here are the confirmed map titles:

Paleozoic Plains
Jurassic Jungle
Cambrian Canyon
Silurian Swamps

And here are what each level features: (Each level features a cool 360 degree turret, so you can fire on your enemies if they are on your butt)

Paleozoic Plains Cranium Crater
- Lots of bones
- Few ammo gates
- Some trees
- Large Size Map
- Arrow and Jump Pads
- White Fog
- Lush Sky
- Frantic Music

Jurassic Jungle Hypothalamus Hills
- Lots of trees
- Several Rocks
- Small Size Map
- Black Fog
- Spooky Fog
- Lush Music

Cambrian Canyon Medulla Mesa
- Volcano

Silurian Swamps Freudian Flats
- Lots of big trees, overhanging the level
- Browey, greeny, fog color
- Medium/Small Sized map

Here are the tank stats that apply to every level:

Light Tank:
Fast, but slower shots. Does not really slide, brakes good.

Medium Tank:
Medium Speed, Medium speed shots. Minimal slide, great brakes.

Heavy Tank:
Slow Speed, Fast shots. No slide, stops on a dime.


Thank you for reading this!

I just need to get some new names of maps. Do any of you know any names of eras that will sound good? Thanks.

Look forward to seeing you!

Im a geologist Nate - here is the list
Cenozoic, Mesozoic, Paleozoic, Proterozoic, Archean, Quarternary, Pliocene, Miocene, Oligicene, Eocene, Paleocene, Cretaceous, Jurassic, Triassic, Permian, Carboniferous, Devonian, Silurian, Ordovician, Cambrian, and PreCambrian
You should be able to come up with a few with that list

Here nathan, you have to let me in though.. lol

Pliocene Plain sounds good, Pliocene Plateau, either one
Cretaceous Crags
Devonian Deluge (think more rocky isles, but less-dense mist)
Silurian Swamps
PreCambrian Peaks
Carboniferous Canyon
Modern Era Mountains

etc.

Could you also say what terrain you are using for each new map? Just a thought

Sure thing.

Paleozoic Plains:
Flat. Few hills

Jurassic Jungle:
Flat, but kinda hilly

Cambrian Canyon:
Hilly, lots of rocks, and volcano(s)

I will also be making Silurian Swamps. I like that name.
Ill add it to the top.
Thanks for all your suggestions!

*gasps* After all this waiting, you guys are finally speaking my language! Dan: Permian came before the Jurassic, Triassic and Cretaceous, and I think the three latters are listed in correct order.

I know nothing about this, just some names. I don't care if they are in any order. I just wanted a theme, just like the base levels are terms relating to the brain. (Cranium, Medulla, ect)

Thanks again for all the names. I may eventually make more.

Okay. No I'm not a geologist, just a dinosaur freak. @Nathan: I can't get into your server because it has a password, and (of course) I do not know the password.

(suggestion: Mesazoic Mayhem?)

Nathan, password? email me: anickist2 |at| yahoo.com

By terrain, I meant what actual file. I.e. is silurian swamps using cranium crater map, paleozoic plains using Freudian Flats, or whatever.

I did the 360 nathan no fun when you cant see where you shoot better do something about that camera angle
#12
10/24/2003 (6:23 pm)
Ok. I wont be having the pass from now on, I will just restrict it to 7 people. I can usually do that without lag.

And alex cohen, delete that please. If my mods suck, dont come to them.
FP, dont critisize. Same for you. If you dont like my mods, dont go to them. Easy as that.

More maps to come. (Don't worry about objects. I'll add more) Have fun!

As for terrain, I don't have that confirmed yet. Just whatever fits the description. I will be adding the base map to the features list as I build.

And camera, dont say change it if you dont say how. Although I am sure I can figure it out.

Delete your old threads of this please. I don't like crap. Yes I got it, and replied, saying you sent a MFL and a INK file. I don't even know what those are. (Well, the INK is a shortcut, I know that.)

Now delete that.

Don't worry FP, ill put instrucitions. No prob.
And max, this is Nate's Era Mods. I want to keep an era theme (Paleozoic, Jurassic, ect.)

And to all of you "regulars", I will be having only big ufos now. Stats vary by which tank you choose in the start, so pick wisely. Lag-free also.
