You might know where the map mp_carentan comes from. CoD1/UO/CoD2.

I started working on this map yesterday, it will be my first map, so I am learning new stuff every day :) I will spend alot of time on this map, editing things till it is perfect, so that it will be a excellent remake for DoDS.

Here's an idea of how it will look like:

I will try to make some screens of my map next week.

Any tips or info would be welcome. Or if anyone would be able to help me with lighting, adding things, editing, ... that is also welcome ;)

It'd be awesome if you could use the textures from CoD2, if that's not illegal. I'm looking forward to how it'll come out.

I miss the 3.1 Carentan (where is the bunny?) and the 1.3 version (http://www.sunlitgames.net/mappics/dod_carentan.jpg)
Who needs a COD clone ?

The COD version is really REALLY good. The layout is excellent. Imagine all those shootouts inside. And the basement firefights...

The big challenge will be, of course, to figure out how to prevent spawncamping.

Ow, I didn't know that :p

Anyway, I have alot of fun making this map. I have the game CoD2 so I'm taking about 200 screenshots to make everything as good as possible :)
It won't be 100% the same, I will add some extra things and stuff.

Well good luck on making that map, if you do pull it off then well done to you. Just remember to release this map when you feel it ready, also do the same for the screenshots, don't release screenshots for the hell of it unless you want to.

Also take your time on this map and use many of the tutorials on how to make a map using Hammer. If you have the time and patience to make a map like this then you can do any map.
