We are around half way through the first season of cdodl, and for some of us this is the time to think forward on season 2.

One of the things we are working hard on is the new map cycle. one thing is for sure, you don't have to play avalanche and kalt again, mainly because the server issues.

We are testing a few maps such as railroad2 and harrington. And it is here we want your help.

There is a lack of clan war maps in day of defeat, and we really would like to see some new maps. Therefore we have made a little competition.

There is probably a lot of pro/amature indivdual/team mappers out there, just waiting for the're chance to get their map played by a lot of people.

We are giving YOU the chance to make a map that is just perfect for playing DoD clan wars. There is a few things you should keep in mind:

*It's a flag based map.
*Its allies and axis
*Don't use a lot of things that take a lot of fps (fire, fog etc)
*Please keep it as basic as possible, it's for playability, not prettyness.
*Last date for giving us the map is around 1st may 2004

After we receive the maps we will test them in pcw's and find the map that are most suitable for that type of game play.

The winner's map will be used in next season of CDoDL. Although we keep the privileges to make a "non winner's" map involved in the league if there is none suitable for clan wars.

Good Luck!

Maps should be submitted to the admin team found in #CDoDL @ Quakenet.

Good, we need more top clan maps for DoD. Currentley in Europe all we seem to play is Chemmile, Anzio, Donner in clan matches, though hopefully the EU DoD scene can adopt maps like railroad2, harrington as clan maps like the US DoD scene. Another good clan map would be great.

This would be great for the Euro clans.

Great idea guys.

I'm confused as to why TWR site is posted here ... I've had problems with them constantly knocking the custom scene even in there own custom forum.


ah well ... lets hope they see sence and get involved now.

This has to be map exclusively created for this contest (so not released to public before end of it) ?

@haircut

The TWRGaming link was there as there is a news post about this mapping project.
