Hill 72 looks perfect, mate. Could you please make me to your internal beta tester? :P

I don't understand question...  :P
It was my aim to make betatesting team of me, you, pariah and Seeme ( if you guys want to, ofc)  :)
For now there will be a little break in mapmaking. I'm driving back to home at saturday morning, and until monday evening I won't be home. Maybe I'll post some updates tomorrow :)

Sorry, mate, but my current computer can't play Company Of Heroes. Hopefully i will get my harddrives back today, and finally be able to install 7, but i doubt it...

Ok that sounds nice. But pariah can't play, right?!

:'(
such a shame... I'll find somebody to replace you then... I'm still waiting for the day, when we will get owned by pariah  ;D

Yeah. That will be an event of international interest. Truely. :P
I suggest one more tester - Cranialwizard!

signed. or we can make open beta... nah, that's lame  ::)

Haha yeah you're right.  :D

Nah, take a note from Eastern Front, and make beta testing donation-based. ;D

WOW!!!  :o :o

Simply awesome!!!

Hans didn't see nothing this time?  ;D ;D ;D

hey you are doing a great work !!!!!! can't wait the moment to play on this map  ;D

glad to know you like it  :)

... and I have one more mapping project idea....

The city looks amazing!!  :o

It's awesome, my friend. I think the devs won't be able to not include it. It is an Eastern Front must have.  :)

You are one of the most talented mappers I have ever seen. The only that seem to rival you would be The spindex or playmobil. I look forward to more updates and can't wait to play on it.

yay, guys, c'mon, I'm not such a good mapper  :-[

and this is what I'm going to create next time:


it's Malinovka from WoT. I love this map ( 3 kills minimum each game  :D )
I'm gonna make it a bit smaller, and add something from me :)

Uh I hate the path through the mountains. You're not able to navigate and fall back because you got friendly tanks behind you.

there won't be any mouintains, walki1 :) only plains.

meh! But what if I want!  ;D

then you can do this map, and I'll skip to Prokhorovka :) this is sooooo cool map, seriously, I don't know which one to do first.

I simply HATE WITH ALL MYSELF THIS WOT MAP (no offense Ceph)...Try to do Ruinberg or Lakeville. ;) :D

I'm playing Tank Destroyers, so I love open spaces....  :)

It's funny that you bring up recreating World Of Tanks maps in Company Of Heroes, because just yesterday i was talking to Maxi about recreating Company Of Heroes maps in MineCraft. :D

Well, WoT and COH is different games. I would suggest limiting the open spaces and making it have a lot more cover, since these maps are made for tanks, not inf.

sure Seeme, this will be changed of course, don't worry. Those are plans and they might evolve  ::)

it occured that I had a bit more time today, so I decided to make some progress. Update 7 ready.

Nice update, as usual. :)

So, how is progress? I want really play this map ;D.

... exams, unfortunatelly  :( but I'm doing small things, like houses or streets when I have 10 minutes to spare. No big update though yet.

Progress Report #8 was uploaded. Enjoy.

1. Can imageshack get rid off me? I've uploaded soo many pictures that I'm quite afraid they can ban my IP or something...

2. I think I found the issue with WB crashing. Every time I have big mapping project left unfinished, and I'm returning to it to add some stuff, all NEW maps I create are causing crashes when using Height and Texture tools ( you know, ground painting).

I shouldn't think they would ban you for using their services. ;)

Where did you get that church from? Is that new in Eastern Front or something? I don't recall seeing it before... :-\

Nice update, man. It's looking great! :)

Your map looks really impressive cephalos, keep up your good work.

@pariah:
The church is made by relic, but nobody does really use it ;)


Mystic

Oh, thanks Mystic. I wonder how many other buildings and stuff there is in the WorldBuilder that nobody uses...

There is a nice looking V2 rocket that no one uses.

I wonder how that big ship got there when there are impassable bridges all around

+1

It really deserves a place in EF! I hope that devs consider including it in the next update.

SCIENCE!

Any news? I really want play this map.

Hmm... I unfortunatelly had to stop working. WB crashes all the f*cking time, and I even can't place objects and other stuff.
I just don't know what to do, and it looks like somebopdy else will have to finish map...  :-\

Maxi can do it! ;D

pariah wrote:

Would be an honour to do so.  :)

And would probably kill you. ;D

Nah..  ;)
Ceph if you're OK with me as the guy who finishes your great work, I'd love to see a PM including a download link. I will follow your instructions precisely and all the credits will go to you.  :)

After council with Maxi we both agreed that map is too big for 2v2. So Kalach will be released as 3v3 map. And for now Maxi is going to post updates, because he was so kind to finish this map :)

Progress Report #9

After Cephalos' Worldbuilder stopped working, I took over the project to finish the last 25% of blank are that remain to be filled.
It's Summer Holidays, although it doesn't really feel like it, means a lot of time for me to invest in mapping.
As Cephalos already has announced, it will be a 3v3 map.
Enough the words, here some screenshots of what I did today:

Overhead map.
Red - Today's progress/my operating area(12 hours)
Green - bridges changed; outer ones indestructible, inner ones destructed but repairable
White - remains to be done



The other, new side of the train station


A little fortified whatever, just seemed nice that way:


Winter forest and frozen pond - could be almost romantic if it wasn't a computer game


Ammo bunker, crashed train and the recently added hill


A guardpost outside Kalach - to control what comes in there..


The fortified hill



Hope you enjoyed these, make sure you take a look at this tomorrow, same time. ;)

I like your fortified whatever  :)

+1 me too  :D you've found what to do with it. I was nearly 100% sure I'll delete it, but WB started to freak out. It's fabulous piece of work, mate :)

Thank you. I thought ceph that you wanted to get surprised ;D
