Map description : This is my interpretation of the interior of the 'Tantive IV' Rebel Blockade Runner, the Corellian Corvette seen at the beginning of A New Hope and also in Revenge Of The Sith. I have tried to include every angle we see on film in both movies and also I have extended past this, to the rest of the ship, to show what it could be like.

But watch out - the Imperials have us in their sights!!

================================================================

One point to make is the ship is intentionally slightly oversize, as I first tried building it in proper proportion and the game's own camera angle means you feel like you're banging your head as you follow the player.

So a slightly bigger space means that gameplay is as flawless as can be, I find. I know other mappers have found that too!

Notes :

I INTEND TO UPDATE THIS MAP AND INCLUDE WORKING ESCAPE PODS TO TAKE YOU DOWN TO TATOOINE'S SURFACE, AND MAYBE A TRACTOR BEAM TO SUCK YOU ONTO THE STAR DESTROYER...

THERE ARE CERTAIN PEOPLE I MUST THANK.

SITH-J-CULL AGAIN FOR HIS HELP WITH AREAPORTAL PROBLEMS AND TEXTURING ADVICE AND GOD KNOWS WHAT ELSE. IF IT WASN'T FOR SITH-J THIS MAP WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN BUILT... IT WAS SITH-J WHO ASKED ME TO BUILD AN 'ORIGINAL TRILOGY' MAP FOR USE IN HIS 'DOMINENCE' MOD. WELL I DON'T THINK THAT PARTICULAR MOD WILL BE HAPPENING NOW, BUT THE MAP MAY BE A PART OF SOMETHING ELSE...

LIVINGDEADJEDI TOO - AS WE ALL KNOW LDJ BUILT THE WONDERFUL TANTIVE MAP WHICH IS BEING USED IN THE MOVIEBATTLES MOD - I TRIED TO MAKE MY MAP COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TO HIS OWN, BUT IT'S THE SAME SHIP, SO ANY SIMILARITIES ARE OF COURSE UNAVOIDABLE IN THE ESSENTIAL ARCHITECTURE OF THE PLACE. WATCH OUT FOR HIS 'MOS EISLEY TRAP' MAP, WHICH I AM PROUDLY COMPLETING WITH HIM - COMING SOON...

SathiroN AS WELL, SIMPLY FOR BEING A MATE AND SUPPORTING ANTHING I BUILD. WATCH OUT FOR SathiroN... HE HAS LOTS OF IDEAS SOON TO BE RELEASED!!

Oh yeah - I almost forgot. I left another coke can in here somewhere... if you can find it, I'd really appreciate a screenshot of it so I can go pick it up coz I'm thirsty. (But be careful - coz it's breakable!)
