Congrats man,
VoodooChild

You are my hero!

Congratulations man and the best for your future !!! Hope we'll enjoy your maps in the future!!


(jealous) Morphew.

Wow that is great dude!! I want a new computer and to be famous just like you!! :)

Herzlichen Glückwunsch Bleibringer... you really kick ass! Your dod maps are just of the same quality... :)

Wow, these people love you. I gotta try your maps out, and start playing them on my clan server. Anyways, CONGRATULATIONS

sweet ass.
Congrats dude :)

Congrats bro :) Allways good to see people doing well at something they like doing :)

CONGRATULATIONS !!!!
from me in dk !!!!

Congradulations belibringer

Wow! Congrats...this is living proof that a DoD mapper can kick serious ass in BF1942! That map looked real nice (though i was expecting desert style..hahaa) and man...i envy that new Alienware computer of yours (if only DoD had a competition like this). Hopefully, you'll still play and make DoD maps even with that new machine..lol...

A question though, does BF1942 support custom textures and tree models and such? Or are you forced to use the built-in BF1942 textures and materials? I noticed that in the last place winner map (Hurtgen forest), the trees do not fit the Hurtgen forest at all (if only he created his own trees and props). Goes to show how much the BF1942 dev team knows about historical accruacy :(. I doubt even their Bf1942's Bastogne church is historically accruate compared to the Band of Brothers counterpart (which is sooo much better with its circular steeple). And for that "hUrtgen" map, the ground isn't muddly/slushy enough and the forest isn't thick enough (or is there a forest anyway). I know there are clearings with some towns, but Hurtgen was thick..mind you....

If i'm not wrong, Neunen is based off the Band of Brothers episode Replacements, the first Market Garden episode. Good thing bout BF1942 though, the textures and trees that come with the game fit Holland very well. (the rows of trees and grass color and open fields..match those in typical Holland photos. (just need tiny bocages...tiny ones...at some spots of Holland) )

Now, do us a favor: Convert that map to DoD !! haha!

Awesome _o/

Congrats sir.

wow, me jealous
Excellent work, good inspiration for all of us!

Well Done Blei!

:D

jup, congrats bleibringer :)

Hi Mates. :)

Thanks for your congratulations - I appreciate it.
...and thx 2 VoodooChild for posting it here. :)

Of course I still continue mapping for DoD!!
I think mapping for DoD compared to BF1942 is quite more challenging because of the restrictions of the HL-Engine, but mapping for BF1942
is fun too, because of the vehicle stuff and huge map-size.

Thanx and best wishes to the great DOD-Community
Bleibringer :)

yep, also congrats from me bleibringer!

keep on your exellent work! :)

yah. its fun making maps for dod because of the restrictions. Once hl2 comes out, im pretty positive that most maps are easily going to look good and possibly play well.

Herzlichen Glückwunsch Bleibringer!:)
Mach weiter so.
