Hello mappers,

Thought I'd stop in and say hello. You know, see how things are going. Sooooooooo.......I see you guys got a lot of great WiPs going on. I know I'm not just speaking for myself when I say we're REALLY looking forward to some custom maps. Do any of you fantastic fellows know whenabout your maps will be released?

Thanks in advance for any info.

edit: I realize the DoD:S FGD is not out yet, but assuming it comes out in the next week or so, how long before we have some releases?

there are maps out now but they are all pretty amateurish.

fuzzdad has one ready to go though and it looks pretty good.

I've converted de_dust but it requires a lot of CS:S content and compressed it still al comes to around 65M ... not good for servers that want to be able to download the map.


FPS is good though :D

well you got a link to download that map?

yes ... but not for everyone yet ... I'm testing it first.

my beach map shouldn't take too long to finish. still needs more detail but besides that all i need to do is put in the back area (similar to the big gun/flak #2 area in charlie), which i've already started.
none of my other maps are anywhere near ready though. i'll remake cherbourg again from scratch, and all i have on my bayeux port is the original .rmf in the source sdk. i'm also planning on making that a winter map like a moh:sh map i can't remember the name of. but as there are no winter textures yet, that one shouldn't be out for a while.

they are waiting for the updated SDK and FGD's (or something like that, I'm not a mapper). Right now some are making maps using the Counter Strike stuff...

So they look like CS Maps with DOD players :)

That spearhead map is Verschneite.
My absolute favorite map of all time.

im in the making of a map aswell... its just that whenever i go onto it. all i can think of is the new textures and models that i could be using... so that slows me down.

Actually no Cran, we're using the dod source stuff too, so it looks every bit as dodish as it could.

Ah...

Thanks - I was under the impression you guys were waiting for something...

DAMNIT WHERE ARE THE MAPS THEN???

:)

Cran, keep looking at the CoJ forums, you should have something in the coming days ;) (testing part only)

coj forums?
Link to that?
