This is my latest custom map. The map is a copy of castle Schloss Hohenwerfen, better known as Schloss Adler the SS Headquaters from the WWII film "Where Eagles Dare"

The castle has 3 floors with the main Banquet Hall in the basement. There is a mini map included in the download, but whilst it does tell you where the flags and detonation packs are, and where you are in realtion to North, South, East or West, it doesnt help much in determining which floor you are on.

It's a detonation and flag capping map against the timer. Axis have control of the Castle as in the film, and Allies have to capture 3 flags to win whilst Axis defend. The only way to the flags is to blow the doors. It's a 6 minute round with 2 minutes added for each detonation completed.

Thanks to the following.

Bone1 for the Beercart model
Richochet for the Barbed Wire Model
Bunk Beds by who ever made them.
[SAS]==Colster== for his help playtesting it and finding the stolen German artwork and custom poster textures.

Looks interesting. I will get it up on our server and see what happens.

*EDIT* First comment, the detail in the map is awesome. I just did a quick run-through and didn't notice anything major. Also, this is different than any other map out there; that's great. It will also be a map that enforces teamwork. Great work so far man.

Cool !

You need to pack all the files into the bsp though for the next release. No excuse to not do this really. Pakrat does this stuff auto.

Yeah had some problems with that Pakrat packed all the custom models and textures fine but although the sounscape.txt was also added that way it did't work for some reason. Colster also had problems getting it to pakrat the minimap as well.

I'm still getting the purple checker board for the map overview, do I need to reupload the map also? I re-uploaded every file.

Dont get it, just deleted it all from my pc, applied the zip and it works fine.

Like DH says it gets a little confusing anyway as the map takes place on different floors so whilst you know a teammate is near he maybe on the floor above or below you.

There is no rail car at Schloss Adler or Hohenwerfen as it's really known, that was all state of the art special effects shot at Pinewood Studios ;)

That would porbably be down to the fact that it was an SS headquaters in the film...................bit of originality and realism ;) did wonder whether it would offend some people, the intention wasn't to offend and after all you get it in films so can't really see the problem. After all its a WWII game.

I think it actually has to do with the fact he is probably in Germany where it is illegal to show that stuff.

Isn't it possible to leave the SS flags in and then release a censored texture that would go in the \dod\materials\whatever folder it calls for\, it would then overwrite the one in the bsp. Or it could be the other way around.

If not that is one reason I don't like packed BSP's I rather download the files separately so I can mod to my hearts content. Like the old days.

thats a real problem - if someone let this map running on a server located in several countries (eg. germany, austria, ...) then he can be arrested up to 2 years in prison for this....

maybe replace it with a flag with ircon cross - that shouldn't be a problem and still fits to the location

Awesome! I requested this map like a year ago :P.

My only problem is the lack of a Cable Car area. It really would have made a great starting point for the allied troops.

Is the radio room in there with the spiral staircase of death? Best chokepoint of any movie!
