Wintermap Conversions

February 4, 2012 at 7:29 PM

I've started to convert the EF wintermaps to BotB wintersettings. The converted maps will come together with the Ostheer.

Progress:
Kiev: 100%
Kharkov: 100%
Kholm: 85%
Kalach: 45%

Let it snow!

Very nice, I will look forward to this.

Ostheer is a new German faction for this mod.
It will be done when it is done.
Keep mapping and modeling.

Extract the .rar to your Eastern_Front folder.
After that you can find a lots of new winter objects in the world builder. ebps/art_nature/.../winter_...
Also there is a new tile folder called "snow".

Replace existing objects by using the "assign" button.
pine_01 > winter_pine_01

I can give you a work in progress map, so you can stamp my preset splats and splines.

Don't worry about them. These assets and other new ones will be included in the next hotfix :D! Now you don't need to lose an eye :P.

Not for the moment. :(
I think it's possible if i get the object editor running. :-\

Re: Wintermap Conversions

March 15, 2012 at 4:31 PM

I guess you only have to edit the texture to do that.

It doesn't work this way. Editing the objects via object editor ist the only way I see.

Wasn't Kiev already winterized? Maybe you are just updating it.

What Lord van Dalen is trying to achieve is basically to replace the existing vanilla objects on our winter maps with those he brought here from the "Battle of the Bulge" mod. These include winter-like skinned environment objects such as trees, bushes, hedges and so on. :)

Splendid! Are there any major changes to the map so I'd have to update the minimaps?

So to have wintermap, users like me must have winter stuffs first and then the winter maps? Wow sound like a heavy patch but look so nice! :)
