[EF] Berlin 1945 (8)

guy where do i put the sga map file in the COH folder ?

Here: Documents>My Games>Company of Heroes>ww2>scenarios.

I am currently finishing this map because it is to nice a work to go uncompleted. Will be posting an update by Tuesday. The only major stuff left is the riechstag, brandenburg gate, victory column, and some empty pacthes. Stay tuned!

First post updated 8)

Nice to hear that this project wasn't abandoned so close to the end. Keep on going, HerrVoss. Looking forward to Tuesday :)

Maybe you could stamp the Reichstag and Brandenburg Gate from the current Berlin map?

+1, mate.

I love how the Siegssäule (Victory Column) now looks like. If I am right, there is a VP beneath it? That will cause the AI having big problems, maybe you should have a look at it again.
The atmoshphere of that map can't be described, it's more than authentic and it will be a great replacement for the current Berlin map.
Respect.

@HerrVoss
Excellent work :D!

can I say one thing? Can you put some statues on the Brandenburger Gate? The rider on the horse statue? They will look more cool then :)

The second picture is the new one.

@maxi
I will move the VP right now. Thank you for the heads up.

yes finaly we get a real berlin map :D

can you show us next time a tactical map with the VP´s?
btw if i have seen right starting posi 7 is in the reichskanzlei garden?

but im not 100% sure, can it be that the spree (river) isnt at the right place?

maybe this pic can also help you to create this map

Were did you get that awesome map? As for pictures and such, more will follow when I can.Right now I am primarily working on the Brandenburg gate and the Reichstag so you will get another update when I finish those.

hehe was just looking for spy photos of berlin in 1944

i hope it helps you  ;D

First Post updated.

This is very good-looking  ;)

and here is another pic of the old berlin



i marked the Reichstag, Siegessäule, Brandenburg Gate and the New Reichskanzlei

Here is a little teaser for you guys. People have been requesting a Tac map so here is what I have come up with so far. Feel free to comment!

I'd love to comment if the tacmap wouldn't be so small  :-\

New map uploaded.

I like it. Nice competitive resource layout. Where will you put VPs?

The red circles make the VPs.

Very well and balanced sector layout. I like it a lot.

i think some of the streets need roadblocks and barricades, and more rubble debris, just for detail

This map looks freaking sweet, well done!

Are there any news about progress? It would be a shame if this map wouldn't be finished..  :)

@maxi I am sorry about a lack of updates but the delay has been the same reason as yours. The areas I have been working on are empty patches outside the map and the tedious construction of the Riechstag dome. Hopefully an update this weekend.

Take your time. Good work needs it. :)

Update 2 is here! 8)

Sadly no pictures are available but that won't stop me from giving you the progress. I would say the map is at 90% done and a download will be made available on the next update. All major monuments are done and unmapped areas are filled in. Now I am just making a more debris strew city and adding some trenches to the tergarten. The end is near, looking forward to some beta testing.

This

Thank you, I see now.

so after my first game

it looks pretty good for a wip map
but i would reduce by one VP and the other 4 i would put into a line in the middle. atm both sindes can save the vp next to their base and the only one you must fight it the last in the middle next to the river.

but i need to have more test games to say more

@ evilSpike
I might increase the number of VPs to 7 but we will see. Here are some pictures for you and hopefully more people will play-test the map and leave more feedback. I will be updating the first post as well.

Here is a really cool thing that Playmobil and I have come up with and I know some of you will be very happy to see added. With out further ado, the Berlin Zoo. Also do not worry that it is a different atmosphere because there has to be a difference between his and my map.

That kind of planning seems great to me. Did you copy the Reichstag from the existing Berlin map? It looks pretty much like that.

Pretty much but it is much better if you look at a picture of both of them right next to each other. I think I will release this map with 2 atmospheres so we have the gloomy dusk and the smokey morning.

Ok, I'll have a look at it when the new version is released.

Here are some pictures I know maxi will enjoy ;) Now presenting the Zoo O0
Sorry, no lions ;D
