I thought it was a snow map... That doesn't look too snowy, other than that it looks good though

The map and playtest was great, it is not only beautiful, but a lot of fun to play. Expect a dodmaps preview sometime this week.

Stoffer, I was hoping I could playtest it... I must have missed the opportunity.

Any chance I might get my hands on the map to make final suggestions before it's released?

Maybe PM me the URL?

lol RA7 i think why you couldnt test it was because that on the server they added sometime so people couldnt dl the map. im pretty sure thats why.

It looks pretty good but why do the tree trunks have no snow on them?

That creates a little to much contrast

06-09-2003, 05:36 PM
Very nice :)

(stoffer, du er skribent for dod.dk hvorfor har du ikke lavet playtest med os ?)

map looks good, but doesn't all those trees cause too much epolys?

Then again, using barbwire walls or something would add to the lag.

Anyway, an idea: Of course, for high end users, maybe u could make a barbwire.mdl for them. For super high end users, make another one that is even more detailed. For low end users, the barbwire.mdl would be a blank model so it won't generate any polies at all, but they'll have to suffer invisible walls syndrome.

Nice map. Looks like lotsa action. Trees look too giant compared to the allied troops though.

Maybe I haven't been paying attention, but did you make the Nebelwerfer rocketlauncher yourself? And is it operational, does it work ingame like some sort of mortar?

The map is really nice. Especially the fog thats is hanging in between the trees and the overall texturing. GG :)

I got hands on with this map too. Too bad I didnt make into the playtest.

Very nice map indeed. And I don't see why ppl doesnt see snow in that map. It's full of it :D

GJ Stoffer. Waiting for the release :)

Love zee screens, btw that was Jolly, he has a similar sig... :(

El Capitan

yeah I do like the map, although if I may, one suggestion....

The trees need to have some transparency passing through to the sky, at the moment they are too "dense" compared to the areas you can move in, the density of these trees....it would make the map look less "boxed in"

floMatic

nice :D currently i redone my nebelwerfer maybe for b2 ?

There ARE paratroopers.

06-10-2003, 06:31 PM
Hmmmmmm.....I have and idea Stoffer. Make more trees, spread em out, so its like a "Pop-Shoot-and Hide map. Its too open but otherwise good work i hope they pick it for a new Map in future DOD maps.

oh sorry, they looked like rangers to me ;) got a closer look and i saw it, thanks

06-11-2003, 09:57 AM
Well i still think that the map need more trees so that people could hide and shoot around like real jungle warfare. And im fine with the Ping so add anything you want

This map is looking good.

- The snow makes everything lighter. Because it reflects evry light more powerfully than another matter. That's why your ground does not match with the sky: make the sky a night one, or make the ground lighter (just a suggestion m8).
- What about the r_speeds? Please show screens with them next time.

1. Thats how snow is.

2. r_speeds don't go over 850

And about that "the map is to open" THATS the point :) that makes the whole map fun.

Hum, on the screenshots you have the same luminosity as snow in night: you can see, but all is dark. And the sky is not a night one.
I am sure a forest with plenty of snow is very much lighter (by day).

r_speeds are not just wpolys. They are wpolys and eploys. The less wpolys you have, the more eploys you can have. Don't trust me? Please take a look here http://www.slackiller.com/tommy14/rspeeds.htm

Anyway these are just suggestions, based on my personnal opinion. It is YOUR map.
