Hossin

[Daimond]

Well whether they want this out there or not, been debating on posting this for several weeks, I figured I would post them anyway, Just ho0pe don’t get bitch slapped to bad :)

Took these out of the game files, and took them into a modeling program, now all the textures you see there are not all from the game, Like the water texture and the land texture, just used a generic one. As for all the other textures they are the ones applied to thoughs models, but thing is there are a few main textures and others that can be manipulated in 100 different ways, so coloring and look could be and most likely totally off. Some stuff had not textures or texture coordinates at all, so they are still working on them. not to mention alot of the textures right now, are from indar and such, like the trees. But I also didnt addin the Bump mapping and such keeped that stuff to a basic.

But seems as though the size factor is huge, I love the size difference to people, this little bit sure got me into the “I cannot wait for it to go live “big time. I added a few cloakers around the map and pained bright red to stand out to get the jest of the size things are. I doubt they will scale these down on the fly, and leave models as is.

PS there is no layout of where or how things will be placed, think all that is server side, or just not in live files. But what you see is what we have to look at, even if there was don’t think thoughts things would be a good idea for posting, I already Leary about posting this :(

So enjoy and drool as required :)

PS do have 34 models of Searhus I found, but there is no textures or such for them, plus that one’s so far out doubt they will stay the same. But the lava does look cool, and most the things are mainly rocks, so nothing that interesting right now :)

I call this one - Redman's Happy Lagoon

So Hossin has gigantic trees. Awesome, I'm looking forward to it!

[Roy Awesome]

Those trees are as large as a biolab. They are fucking huge.

I do this every patch btw. I'm looking for a site to contribute to, but you can see my content Analysis for GU3 here: http://redd.it/18zs8h (Lancer, Striker, and Phoenix art in there as well)

If you are interested in this stuff, hop on IRC: #reside on irc.planetside-universe.com

I have a bot there that keeps track of every file and we are collecting information and reverse engineering files erry day. Sir_Kane has skinning data exporting (so we can finally do camos), and is working on the animations.

Also note the hollow trees say that can hide tanks in, or used as bridges :) The combinations of how they could be plaed and used is interesting, just in that limited way :)

As a person who likes to ESF........

Nerf the Trees

[Phantomdestiny]

i wonder what the hossin swamp cosmetics/camos are gone look like

[Redshift]

Tbh i think belting through that canopy in an ESF could rival ANT races for shits and giggles

[DirtyBird]

very interesting thx Daimond.

[Helwyr]

Hossin is sounding more and more awesome with every new snippet of info.

[Sifer2]

Yeah just as Amerish favors air by providing lots of mountains it seems this one will favor ground forces by being thickly forested. This assumes you wont just be able to spot people anyway with thermal vision.

[Sledgecrushr]

Thats really good investigating there. Good work.

[capiqu]

I dont know. Hot,Wet and bugs all over.

Are you kidding? Trees are a good ESF pilot's best defensive asset. :D

[Baneblade]

Is Hossin going to make me think of Rancor sized Blue alien ******?

[Neutral Calypso]

I really want to know what those asterisks are hiding now. :D

[Vashyo]

I certainly hope we have big areas that restrict you to infantry combat, something else for change form the biolab. How awesome would it be if you could run outside and not get shelled by tanks/airplanes the moment you step away from the rocks/buildings.

I have a suspicion that that may be the whole point. A continent where air and armour aren't the force they are on other continents. It's a nice idea :)

[Whiteagle]

So Hossin has gigantic trees. Awesome, I'm looking forward to it!

Those trees are as large as a biolab. They are fucking huge.
...Please tell me there is a Base in one of those trees?

[ChipMHazard]

I do think that what I am looking forward to the most are the trees and their effect on ground combat. Like I wrote on twitch when I first heard about them. Dare I dream? Dare I dream of being able to run around murdering my fellow infantrymen gleefully without having to worry about liberators, as much.
Here's hoping that the flora won't reduce performance too much, if at all, when compared to the other continents.

[Thunderhawk]

Was kinda kidding ;) - Everyone will be screaming nerf the trees as they can't get lockons

[Baneblade]

Yeah, I wasn't expecting them. I'm still debating whether six will imply the wrong thing or not.

[HiroshiChugi]

Can't wait for some actually decent infantry fighting. And boy oh boy will the nights be dark under all that tree cover. Watch out, Hiroshi's comin' for ya. ;)

[Satanam]

It'll probably bring one of those problems:
1. Problems for infantry/ground vehicles, because ESFs will be able to just shoot and then W+shift away from lock-ons;
2. Problems for ESFs/ground vehicles (poor ground vehicles lol) because it won't be that easy to get a target in open area for ESFs and it'll be probably a bit worse to move your ground vehicle between those trees.

We just need to wait until it's live, so we can get sure of how they'll place the trees. By the way, they should set it as 1st map for new players, so old players would just move to this map while the new players would be there for their first spawn and keep it full of players.

[Bunk]

That's gonna be awesome, I just hope that the FPS will be better than on Amerish

[Shamrock]

Im really excited about this next cont, Hossin was a favorite from PS1, it also looks like we will have a proper forest canopy, rejoice! infantry fights with less ESF/Lib rocket spam, at long last.

[moosepoop]

cant wait to recreate the battle of endor with these big ass trees :D

[Zakuak]

Oh I'll get my Lib in there don't you worry =). I fly solo though so I'm a TB user and not a dalton Taxi heheh

I hope the canopy is THICK so the lol pods and Dalton Taxi's cannot loiter about at 400m.

Make it thick as hell so you are either flying above it and having a massive air war with out ground seeing you OR you are flying under it and have to stay on the move and at best can do strafing runs.

What ever they do, I am excited to see it!

[Hamma]

Good stuff looking forward to it!

[Akrasjel Lanate]

LA paradise then :P

[MrBloodworth]

Also looking forward to it.

[Babyfark McGeez]

Teldrassil Biolab needs Support!!

This might become my favorite continent, i like Swamps/Jungle.

Also i like the sight of these tress, i hope they will be really large. One of the flaws of the other continents is the lack of natural landmarks. I mean when you're allready handcrafting your whole world make it stand out more. The three continents we got all feel kinda bland.

OH, AND ALSO: Try to make a proper continent this time avoiding "Out of Bounds" areas that can be reached on foot/in vehicles. Because that just feels cheap, lazy and unimmersive (and drawing the edges on the map does NOT help).
Make it a REAL CONTINENT this time please. I would even accept it being square then.

Remember, these are not your standard FPS maps, you are creating a world here.
