This is another screenshot of one of the heightmaps. The heightmaps made most of the maps unrecognizable, but absolutely beautiful. The map being used in the screenshot is esf_encounter.<a href="http://www.moddb.com/mods/earths-special-forces/images/images1" title="Images - Mod DB" target="_blank"><img src="http://media.moddb.com/cache/images/mods/1/1/48/thumb_300x150/Update1.jpg" alt="Images" /></a> <a href="http://www.moddb.com/mods/earths-special-forces/images/images2" title="Images - Mod DB" target="_blank"><img src="http://media.moddb.com/cache/images/mods/1/1/48/thumb_300x150/Update.jpg" alt="Images" /></a>
The two images above feature esf_arrival in heightmap form. A mixture of extraordinary scenery and Skiwan's power up aura he created with the XML tool makes this screenshot almost perfect.<object width="432" height="288"><param name="movie" value="http://www.moddb.com/media/embed/127593"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.moddb.com/media/embed/127593" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="true" width="432" height="288"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://www.moddb.com/mods/earths-special-forces/videos/moty-special-update">Earths Special Forces Mod for Half-Life Videos & Audio - Mod DB</a>
