Ok, its down to 80% done, But one thing. This map will be released when 2.0 comes out. But would you guys rather have a map, with some textuers and not polished, or a Map 100% done, (Eye candy all over the map)
I could make this map Beta, now and test but I whana give out a good looking map, so we can enyoy

From experience: Release a Beta of your map and have a few test games. You can end up missing fundamental flaws and it is a total hassle to fix after you release and it is added to the EiRachive file. From that point forward you can't rename it if you need to rerelease. Trust me it turns into a confusing nightmare of everyone having wrong versions

Wait until you think its done. Map looks good, although I think its a bit too tidy. Fits the Schlaraffenland name, but that name itself is kinda weird. Also looks like a bit too much barricading, make sure they dont hinder the fluid gameplay too much.

No I mean release 6p_Das Schlaraffenland_B1
Get people together who know a bit about mapping and can understand simple instructions to modify their EIR archives file and get them to help you beta test.
You may find that you need to move things around or alter the map in a way that could mess up all your detail work. Trust me on this one.
I don't know when the next time I will be able to play is, but if I am on TS feel free to hit me up and I will help you beta test it.

I concur with wraith, save your final detail pass until after you beta test it. Some questions to answer: - Are the sides of the map balanced? Is it easier to attack/defend on one side?
- Is there enough cover?
- Are there too few/many ways to flank? Are there any areas that are impossible to attack/defend?
- Are there any pathfinding issues? Are there an places that are unintentionally passable/impassable?

Stuck... *sight* My map name is: 6p_Das_Schlaraffenland.sga. But when I am trying to test the map. It wont be found. Strange...
Any clues? I put it in Both: F:\Spel\Company of Heroes\EuropeInRuins\Archives And F:\Spel\Company of Heroes\WW2\Data\Scenarios\MP.
Spel = Games Any clues?
