Mstow (1v1)

I can give you a non-capturable flak88 if you like. But I guess that will have to wait for the final version :P.

great blacky, thanks :D however I think I won't put it back. It would look cool on larger map  :-\ while on 1v1 it's just another object that reduces mobility on already small map. Maybe other time.

Will this map be in the next patch ???

I don't know, mate. It's up to Mystic to decide.

Nice little map you did ceph :)

Play it currently alot.

I have a suggestion:

In the area where the trees are scattered maybe you can change the ground texture a bit.
I was thinking that the snow layer is thinner there and at some points grass shines through.
Another cool effect would be if a object is half covered by snow.

@ Killar
this textures idea sounds great. I'll check it  :)
but I'm not sure if Objective covered by snow will be capturable. Also AI might behave strange.

No i mean objects like pile of wood or a tractor. Maybe if you put it in a ground elevation with snow texture?

Also the snow can be altered by a snow storm. The wind will blow the snow in a direction and when it hits a barrier (house, walls, ...) it will batch the snow in front of it.

What's up with this map ceph? Do you still work on it? I'd like to test it because it may be included in EF's map pool - maybe together with Ostheer.

I'm not currently working on it, and I had to erase my PC so all data is lost. I hope that someone has this map on his PC so he can upload or send it to me.

Map was basically ready, sector layout was also ready. Only loading screen and tacmap needs to be done, but I suck at photoshop/others so I have no clue how to do it.

Don't worry about that, you uploaded an open beta on page 3. TacMap and loading screen can be done by me, as usual. :)

as you wish :) it's up to you, I had even a screenshot for loading screen but I guess it's lost either :(

This one with Nashorns? Don't worry cephalos, we can do it again, even right now :). And I have still your map. I think that your map is enough good for EF maps.

yeah, this one. But I don't have EF installed as I said. Maybe later.

Any new screens?

soon mate, soon...

Ok guys, here it is. Final beta I hope. After that me ( or Maxi  ::) ) will make loading screen and tacmap.

Here's link: http://www.mediafire.com/?7yzy4s8z9w3r26b

also please help improve the map





yeah... report bugs and balance concerns :P

Maybe its good to add a changelog

gonna have to check it out. also, good job on the modern combat mod map, dragon valley, it looks boss!

sure:

- added few hedgerows here and there to increase survivability - 88s and Nashorns are on this map very dangerous, so I thought that some hedges will do :)
- added 2 extra houses to promote fallschrim/partisan warfare.
- few small fixes, literally unoticable
- added 3 craters next to the church for extra cover

Downloaded - who wants to test with me?

I can, PM pls.

We played a match on it, and it looks fine to me. However,  a few more green cover trees here and there wouldn't hurt. Its very open, cutoffs are accessible and ressource layout is somewhat good I think. Makes for fast tank battles (:

thanks for comment. I'll think about it :)

Oh, and before I forget - which weather settings are you going to include? I'd prefer stormy dawn and sunny weather ^^

Sure, I can care about loading screen and weather setting. Why is it that you always use that roll-eye emoticon, ceph? It creates kind of negative associations ;)

haha ;D I just like it ;D

So how is work going on Mstow? Did you implement darcs suggestions yet? If yes, please provide a link so that I can start with the art stuff ;)

basically the version I gave you was the last version. I don't expect any serious changes ( maybe weather, but in far far future ::) ) - nobody complains about sector layout and more obvious stuff... Maxi, do loading screen and tacmap, please :)

Should i kill you now or later, cephalos? WHERE is our photo with nashorns? :P

ummm, yeah... I forgot to tell you that I kinda... lost it :x

You have lost it twice times... forget it. Maxi, do your job, if you like, i can help you to make loading screen (meaing play with you).

Already done, and because it's a map for the Ostheer map pool, there's something special displayed on it ;)

Sent ceph the map for testing purposes, he should decide weather to release it to public yet but IMO he shouldn't :P

May I ask what was the photo which Ceph lost?

Sure. I was planning to make epic Nashorns vs. T-34s loading screen. Dzierzan had helped me twice, but my PC is just strange and it either don't save pictures or delete them during defragmentation. The loading screen that Maxi did is insanely epic I must say :)

Nashorns vs T-34s. No wonder TheDzierzanPL is angry.

Finally, glad to see that link.

Copied that description from the first post and added it to the EF locale. Map comes with 2.0 guys :)

New version ( again I know  ::))
