MaxiKing and MonolithicBacon's Map Packs!

Ok, solved. I tried this step:

I pasted the file on C:\Users\%user% \Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes\ww2\scenarios and it finally worked. Not sure why it needs another path on some users for it to work though. Could it be that it differs on non-Steam users? I had mine from the original CD.

The "Company of Heroes" folder in "My Games" is created regardless of owning the Steam version. Perhaps you didn't paste the file correctly or for a wrong user.
Good to hear you were able to fix it, though! Have fun playing!

Thanks Maxi. Good job on the maps guys, it looks epic!

@ Maxi and Bacon: Thank you so much. The new trailer in Donors was impressive too, but the best part is you'all's Logo. I LOL'd so hard I spilled the mustard.

Edit: Just got a look at the new Wehr HQs. Sweet!

thats the correct route you should be pasting it in guys.
if you do that there should be no problems, ok?

Indeed! That's the path required.

Alright, Ladies and Gents, it's time for the first sneaks of our new map pack:

"World Fronts"

Although there isn't a set decision on how many maps will be included in the pack, four are a work in progress, and three are finished!

So, onto the pictures!

First up, Fromelles (4):











And now, Ruweisat Ridge (4)!







And finally (for now) Novorossiysk (6):













Keep your eyes peeled!

More is coming!

Holy supersonic crapfountains batman! Those look fantastic.

Novorossiysk looks really awesome.
:D

The idea behind World Fronts was to create maps from all over the globe, representing many different theatres of war. What we have until now is:

Fromelles (4): A classic trench warfare map, designed for the Great Patriotic War (TGW) mod.
Ruweisat Ridge (4): A North African map bringing the unique flavour of desert combat into your very own homes. Created for Company of Heroes: Afrika mod.
Novorossiysk (6): The bigger brother of one of Eastern Front's Ostheer maps. The port facilities of Novorossiysk became vital for both Soviet and German troups during the second world war.

And yet, there are more to come:

Battle of Arras (2) - TGW
Chania (4) - Battle of Crete mod
Maleme Airfield (4) - Battle of Crete mod
Peleliu Airfield (4) Pacific Thunder mod
Karelia (6) - Eastern Front mod

As Bacon said; keep your eyes peeled!

Welcome back, everyone! My apologies for the lapse in updates, but there's a reason for this:

Chania (4)! This beast has taken forever, but I'd be lying if I didn't say that this has rapidly become my favourite urban map.

Firstly the view from the top of the city, looking down the tiers towards the coast. Here the combat is mobile and open,  but controlling these areas allows significant pressure to be applied to the rest of the city.



Now the middle tier of the city, restricted, tight and hazardous. Flamers, mgs and mortars rule the streets here.



The western and eastern streets, climbing the tiers, flanked and dangerous.





The marketplace, at the lowest point of the city.



Chania, from the beach.



And the beach itself.



And finally, the minimap.



This map still needs plenty of testing, but it has already been a pleasure to work on, and I hope you all come to enjoy it as much as I have upon release.

Oh, and there are more maps coming soon!

We officially just hit 4000 downloads for our Winter Conversions!

I can't thank you guys enough! Keep it up, and we will too!

Expect more updates soon!

Looking forward to it ;)

And once again, I'm back! This time with our addition to the Battle of Norway: Vinjesvingen (4)!

Here, dense forests became the place of ambush and desperate standoffs between forces, turning into a bloody, difficult skirmish.















Just ignore the AI markers and blocker cubes! And with this update, it brings us ever closer to a release of the next pack! This is my last update for this one, before I start work on our next pack, so keep your eyes peeled!

See you then!

Damn you mono, it looks so f*cking awesome! Gotta download it again now :D

Welcome back to another update of the World Fronts map pack!

This time I'll show you the rural brother of Chania; which already has been revealed by Bacon. It is called "Maleme Airfield (4)" and is meant to display the village and airfield of Maleme which became vital for both British and German troops in the Battle of Crete in 1941.
The Luftwaffe's need for an airfield on Crete was immense, hence combat in the surrounding areas became fierce. British and Greek troops alike, dug in on Hill 107, tried to prevent the German airborne troops from taking the airfield - to no avail. Due to merciless bombardmend by Stukas, the brave defernders soon had to surrender to the waves of German heavy infantry raining down upon them.
