Hi :)

First version of DoD_Edelweiss_B1.

Setting: Bavarian Alps in spring of 1945.

Axis have to hold and defend a mountain village linked to the outside world only by a ropeway and a damaged railway bridge. There are some improvised fortifications that can be used for defense.

Allies have to attack and take all 5 key positions within 26 minutes. Some of them can be reached easier by using the ropeway, while the last flag can only be taken by using one of the ropeway cars. Or at least, practically only be taken by doing so :D.

Flags cannot be re-taken by the Axis!

Performance should be acceptable with being above the average fps of dod_kalt for most areas.

Known bugs: misaligned textures in some places, brushwork missing detail in others, car's movement might be a bit jerky at times and could appear not to harmonize perfectly with the rope above them ;).

Apart from it being a first beta, everything should work.

Hope you'll enjoy it!

I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions in this thread or in the [WiP] thread!

P.S.: thanks to Pvt. Snail and his OFAB people this version is way better than the original beta candidate :D.

Looks sweet man we will give it a run around today thanks . :D

Congrats! :D

Sorry, but... what kind of spree is this supposed to be?

You're pretty much killing the structure of the release forums by pushing every single thread back up, do you realize that?

Thanks...

Don't worry, he's being dealt with ;)

Just had this map played with a full server (20 man) back-to-back for 2 hours. Awesome.
There will be interesting changes in the new version to make it even better, which I heard from a little bird flying around. ;)

Thanks Albatros for a fantastic map! :D

Oh well :D

Gracias.

Yeah, that's correct ;), I'll release a second beta candidate before next week featuring a different gameplay type (axis will be able to cap out the map aswell, timer will be removed etc. - more conventional system with advancing spawns for both sides).

It will be very interesting to find out which system the players will like better... :)

Cheerio,

Albatros

LOVE THE MAP NICE WORK

I have played the b1 version and I will say this, If the axis can not recap with the time limit being so long, it will not work, but reading what u just posted above^^^^ the new version will get the most out of your map. I think thats what is missing. IMO

Also, change the middle flag cap to atleast a 2-man cap. Other than that great map!!

Very interesting map...

The only little thing that I would want changed is in the middle station (Im guessing) on top of the wired ceiling you can break out the glass, but you cannot jump out of the windows. The only reason I say this is because I would want to jump on the roof of passing cars.

:D

Great looking map. We did have a problem though. The axis spawn seemed to only have 2 places to spawn in and we would all spawn at the same time and couldn't move. I don't know what the cure is but there's the problem. Other than that fun map to play.

BTW it's the version that both sides can cap flags on.

Hi Jimmy,

please check mapping main forums!

I made the fixed Release there by mistake, waiting for someone to move it over here ;).

Ty!
