Working on a map, decided to go ahead and try some different stuff, height mapping, atmosphere, etc.

Playable from 2v2-4v4

Screenshots:

Top Down-



other screens with fog on:







Beta 1 had sectors that were too large, hard to capture or clear. This is fixed. More environmental cover added in the empty field areas, shrubs, trees, that stuff.

Newest version is up. Yes, another one, again.

Looking good!  I like the top down layout!

A few suggestions:

-For screenshots, I recommend turning off the fog (its under "Scenario->Atmosphere Properties -> Fog")

-It's tough to tell from the screen shot, but it looks like you might be using individual tree objects for the out of bounds forest.  You should really try to use groves wherever possible for clumps of trees because it is much easier for the game to render and should help with framerate (plus you can cover more ground with each object)

Keep up the good work!

this is by far one of my favorite maps of all time, if not the best ... i love the flair of the night fight aswell as the overall design (go forest go)

ampm i was thinking if you made it a 3 v 3 wiht the teams spawning on the width edge instead of the length edge, you could actually make it one of the most deadly and bloody 4 v4 maps the same way...

spawn camping would be common place but oh my god the amount of damage someones company would probably take in a 4 v 4 width map fight on something like this ... Wink

The vaste forest area makes it rather big. Maybe make it 3vs3 or tighten it up. Otherwise, very nice.

Note: Try not to circle-strafe inside the forest.  It DOES NOT WORK.

I was considering a 3v3 version, my main concern being whether or not there was going to be enough room. The map is 512x256 playable, so not really that big. Maybe something to bring more focus into teh forested area.

As always, criticism and other remarks welcome.


And yes, the forest requires completely different tactics for tanks.

Can you post the minimap?  Or a top down screen shot that is bright?  (Try setting sun to daylight temporarily to get a bright shot).

4 on 4 this map FREAKING OWNS EVERYTHING hands down.. we need all the best players, axis and allies .. who ever has the best forces and most manpower to slug it out epic style before reset on this..

We fucking owned it up earlier on this map 4v4, we had fairly new companies as well. Unfortunately every fucking one of use crashed and our .eir logs weren't even recorded.

Its is an intense fight and once the battles lines are drawn the blood is truly spilt on this map

at one point a calliope strike a on table howie strike and an off table strike removed from existance a sizable german force and left craters so big you could hide men in them!!!!!
