nice work

WooHoo! Thanks Green!

nice map.
only thing i don't like are the big windows where i cannot go through (because they look like i could ;))

ok..some little bugs are still present.. but i wrote that to my list for the beta2 release^^ but at some windows you can not jump out ;)

Its a good attempt but i find there are a few problems with it. these aren't just things to make it look more like the orignal.


Areas between 1st and 2nd flags are huge are open so will make capturing the last flag defend by a well placed mg impossible
I can't belive you got rid of the hotel in the main plaza
Main Plaza is really small considering its the main killing ground of the map
The rubblepiles are hidious

Thanks for the map; though I'm not quite sure about the two stallions... :D Looking forward to trying it.

Map feels like the original Caen :)
Fps were very good

I see that you are aware of the "windows" and holes in the wall that cant be exited. The fifth picture is of another wall opening that slows down movement.
A very awkward area was that of between the 5th and 4th flags. Beams were very low and impeded smooth movement.

Nice Work Green.

Caen was one of the best 1.3 maps ever. I will try the map in the afternoon.

Here is a Highspeed Mirror.

i´m 100% agree with you RosietheRiveter. i will fix this in b2! thx for youre informations

Wow, great Ican´t believe that it´s done , THX !!!

nice job green!
it felt very very good when playing it.

my only complaints are (most of it mentioned before)
- the main plaza seems to be a little bit too small
- it's very hard to get the first flag
- 2 horses... it's a nice idea but then again looks overloaded to me
- i got stuck in that area between 2nd and 3rd axis flag (under the wood summers). just happened once so i cant specify it any further.

again: i love what you have created so far :)

thx for this critics..
-plaza.. i will look to get the plaza bigger
-i will make a separate way to the axis first flag.
- 2 horses to much?.. hmm....
- the way from the 2nd axis to the 3rd flag was recreated in the version Beta2

and^^ i also have much fun to play the map today.. it was funny ;)

I think it looks even better with this fog : http://i13.tinypic.com/628ylg5.jpg

color : 125 125 125
fogstart: 1
fogend : 3000

Or you can go with a more yellowish fog.

hmm i think this is not a fog map.. when u look from the allied sniper spot to the axis sniper spot with fog on map on plaza you see nothing.. this destroy the caen feeling i think.

This map can now be found on the House of Noobs Server and Website for downloads. No registration needed!

Lots of psychedelic moments went on while I was running through it!

i have 4 buildings from a mapper friend. so i have enough own buildings from my other maps.. i can delete this buildings and place own buildings. i edit this and place own brushes. but i must look first.

looking forward for beta2

All i can say is great work, had a quick play and its awesome, sort the bugs out and you've got a winner here.

Two things I've found:

http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/9797/caen1ki2.th.gif (http://img207.imageshack.us/my.php?image=caen1ki2.gif)

Put some kind of warning on that doorway to let the Allies know if they walk through it, they'll die. A skull & crossbones or something.

Same thing with Axis spawn, most people probably won't even notice this box.

Overall, it does feel like Caen. It feels big and there's lots of places to go. Nice. :)

Put in a func_teamwall entity for both spots to block the teams you don't want to enter.

thx adam..thats all what a mapper want ;)

@Guyver.. yes its a problem. i fix this

@ultranew_b
thats a good idea.. its better as a team trigger hurt!

the b2 is still in progress and i think i will release it tommorrow...

Pretty sweet, if B2 is coming tomorrow i'll wait for that one to add a mirror :D

its good and i like it

but theres a few things which like to turn invisible depending on how you look at them and how close you are, ill post pics later.

thx...this is the sight distance for some models. i have fixed this also in the beta2 version.

There's a spot on a wall that alternates between transparent and flickering with some weird ladder texture (I believe) there (between Axis 1st and 2nd).



Keep up the good work on the map. Looking forward to b2.

ouch.. thx.. i will fix this now

OMG I've been wondering what happen to countless people taking on the Sourcing of Caen. But, um, why the name change? Just curious.

I think Valve owns the name dod_caen, not sure though.

nobody can own a name of town^^

I think Valve owns the name dod_caen, not sure though.

Well I'm gonna copyright Paris and London then.

nobody can own a name of town^^Yeah, but dod_caen is not a town, it's a name of a map in which they own the content/context of.

no formlogic23.. you can release map without "dod_"
the map run also only with name caen. but dod_ is not copyrighted.. everybody release his map with dod_ so the name of a town/city you can not copyrighted!

The map dod_caen is the intellectual property of the person that designed it (unfortunately, I can't remember off the top o' the head who it was.... sorry). The original map was remade by Valve when DoD went retail, so the map, and its layout is now owned by Valve. We don't really know which 1.3 stock maps Valve is planning on Sourcifying, so we usually reserve "official" names for Valve.

Well said Punishment.
Like the start of this conversation is relevant to giving the mapper our feedback :rolleyes:

I didn't say that dod_ is copyrighted either. I was saying that dod_caen is copyrighted. I was putting emphasis on the dod_ part because dod_caen is owned by Valve or whoever.

I agree you can't copyright a city name. I assure you though, if you were to release your map under the name dod_caen, there would be problems knocking at your door.

i think not. i have release a dods version dod_snowtown 5 months ago and i have no problems about that.

A friend of mine from another clan, just renamed dod_goodwood to dod_caen. So i'm sure you guys will, in the new few hours, see dod_caen popping up on people's servers.

why would he do that?? :eek: :confused:

I would advise your friend to remove the map, or he/she is going to complicate things for themselves.

But then again, maybe I'm talking out my ass.

I doubt that Valve will care too much about there being a map named dod_caen out there unless they decide to remake it (which they very well might). However, it is wrong to just rename a person's map without their permission.
