Soon i will release a larger version with more objectieves.

this looks kinda interesting...


though i think the river could need some more brushwork to look more realistic :)


but nice nethertheless

is there anything else in this map except that river ?

is there anything else in this map except that river ?

My thoughts exactly.

nice work , brit maps rule !!!!!! .

for one of your first maps, i would say its very good, but for the next version i suggest -

-A little differentiation in textures
-More brushwork, so it looks more realistic on the rocks and river
-possibly more slopes

I sall look what I can do for the next version

anyway, thanks for the suggestions:)

edit: what do you guys mean with "more brush work" ?

well by more brushwork, i mean more brushes (blocks) to give more detail, and make the rocks look mroe realistic. it will give it more shape and detail, like rocks actually are.

Bugs/Problems
-No ambience
-Trees, boat (models) dissapear when in river
-American bazookas in house (no sleeves for brit players :o )
-The sniper ledge is a bit sketchy, I had some trouble getting on the thing
-The grate at the end seems a bit wierd the way the maps just stops, maybe build a small darker sewer thing or whatever :)

On the whole the map just seems a bit bland. Maybe you could expand it width ways and have some more buildings to hind in. If the troops are hiding there, they might want some places to live and hide in. Some new pathways might be usefull too, perhaps an explodable wall which opens up a new path way with lots of foliage or something :P

It's very good for a first map but could do with some tweaking :)

P.S Looking forward to the next version :)

A few things is definitel:

- More shelters like houses en stuff
- Better objectieves

and naturally i hope all remaining bugs are gone:)

Sounds good :)
