These days I play Supreme Commander, which is probably the greatest RTS you've never heard of!

I do daily uploads of gameplays, replays and tutorials - check out my videos you might like them :)

IMPORTANT:

Designed to be used with BetterDefault v3.6 texture pack (only 200Kb)

Well My computer died on me and I haven't been able to do all the work I wanted to over the last week. I've crammed in as much as I can over the last 24 hours, and it's finally finished.

I've been on really low FPS, and minimum settings using Optifine. The whole thing had to be in default texture pack because of my damn computer, but I still think it turned out pretty good!

Thanks to:

ZaphodX - Concept, design, ideas, terraforming, tweaking

Dingotar - Big part of building from the start, and keeping me motivated

AAmdahl - MASSIVE thanks for being there and helping me loads with getting the last bit finished <33333

Palaeos - Giving me a good bit of last minute help

Tainz - Giving me a good bit of last minute help

I really went for a tropical feel for this one, and concentrated on the terraforming and design of the island, with less dull hotels and more of a few super luxury villas for the esteemed guest.

Features:

Huge world height, massive peaks above the normal contest island
Massive undersea coral reef, with fish, kelp, lighting, big shark, and an angler fish.
Massive tour around the island, through the underwater coral reef
Natural suspended underwater lava lakes all around the island
Massive Volcano
Air balloons everywhere
Lots of palm trees for a real tropical feel
Huge open plan layout and terraforming
Large terraformed beach area overhanging the coral reef
Luxury treehouse and villas
Large floating castle
