UPDATED: FINAL 2.0 (Friday, June 12 2009)
It's my first Map so don't take it too harshly.

 "A Town built for its employees (and wealthy owner) of a factory at the end of a railway line was being used as a Nazi stronghold. After intesive bombing axis reinforcements are coming to the town and factory. Allied forces are rushing in from the hills to grab the rails, defeat the axis forces and capture the town and rails. As day Breaks, the forces meet.                              By Ununoctium"

Overview (only a little old, mostly accurate):
<table style="width:auto;"><tr><td></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family:arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; text-align:right">From [BETA] Industrial Town</td></tr></table>


2 thing to do that I can't do myself (I am stupid):
* I can't make a second weather setting....
* I'm looking for invincible bridges SCAR code DONE

Version 2.0 Changelog:
-Added more splats/splines.
-Buried invincible tanks in a hole and filled it with water.
</td></tr><tr><td style="font-family:arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; text-align:right">From [BETA] Industrial Town
-Changed sector layout to be more EiR friendly
-Added some shot-blocking objects
-Added weather
-Damaged building to make left side of city more even.


Notes:
The majority of the sectors are in the town but the fields provide enough to do a good flanking maneuver without losing too much pop. ( I may increase the number of sectors to make the field more necessary in-game.
*River is fordable
*Not much room to build in HQ sectors, Map is focused for OMG

SCREENSHOTS:

[EliteGrens]

Looking great.

[Duckordie]

you sould try working more with splats and making holes in the walls.

[Warbirds]

To have more than one weather setting, you need to create a MAP_NAME.options file with the weather name codes and the weather presets you want to use.

For example, the weather options file for Dutch Riverside are:

Code:

atmospheres =
{
	{ 62013, "cxp2_arnhem_midday_01.aps" },
	{ 62005, "mp_2p_hells_highway_dusk_00.aps" },
	{ 62018, "cxp2_hells_highway_stormy_nolightening_00.aps" },
	{ 62009, "best_local.aps" },
}

[Duckordie]

Note its not just open not pad and add: MAP_NAME.options in name and then the code.

[Ununoctium]

Between the last 2 posts DuckorDie managed to confuse me with what Warbirds said about the code.

Oh and splat have always been a weakness for me.... if somebody could post a very specific screen shot of well placed  splats with little circles around where they are it would help me distinguish good blending of splats from blending of splat-splines.

Major bug with worldbuilder- i had a hetzer and stuh wreck but they fucked up when i tried to set health to 0 on something or the other and now they are untouchable....

[Warbirds]

The only wrecks that work properly, are the Cromwell, P4, Sherman, and StuG wrecks.  The rest fuck up.

To fix you problem, stamp your whole map with every check box ticked, and use bound box selection.  The place your stamp in a new map to continue working.  When something like that happens, Ununoctium, it's best to just do what I listed above.

And I don't know what Duck is talking about, to be honest.  I just opened notepad, put in the code (must be NUMBER CODE (which is what the text option in the drop box in-game show up as), then the atmosphere preset file), named it, and it worked.

[Ununoctium]

Maybe if you're on vent you explain what that means.

About the ghost tanks - is there a chance i could bury them in a hole in the ground and put a shack over it? or bury them in a small pond?

[Warbirds]

If it works, go for it.

[Ununoctium]

I tried and this is what i got:


<table style="width:auto;"><tr><td></td></tr><tr><td style="font-family:arial,sans-serif; font-size:11px; text-align:right">From [BETA] Industrial Town</td></tr></table>

[Ununoctium]

Ok.. version 2.0 coming soon. It's all Purty with bonus splats splines and blended roads that don't look ultra-weird.

[salan]

it is in the module now, please name it 6p_industrial_town.. whatever the caps are in the module

[RikiRude]

you should put something on the first post that says that you have to capture territory in a certain order because right now it doesn't work how normal EIRR maps are. I think the left side of the map with those busted tanks is a little too cluttered, maybe move a wreck or two to the field out there. Other then that a pretty cool map, can't wait for a fixed version and to play it some more.

[TheDeadlyShoe]

*the territory layout makes the corner territories pointless. you have to hold the center to hold the connector so noone fights in the corners

*brits can't fire rifle nades/piats from the buildings near the chateau, at the chateau. the hedge blocks em.

[Ununoctium]

@Salan:
will do

@RikiRude:
No clue why that happened

@Shoe:
I'm planning on cutting that sector in half or reshaping the ones around it
I'm going to look into that over the hedge bug (I will tell other people to try it) But it's not such a bad thing eh

@ Everyone:
Version 2.0 is out. all bugs (except the piat thing, no clue how that is working) fixed
All that's left is coding (weather, invincobridges)

[TheDeadlyShoe]

please polish the map as much as possible before post so people dont have to d/l the map 3 times

[Ununoctium]

please polish the map as much as possible before post so people dont have to d/l the map 3 times

It is essentially done.
The odds are that the other things will never be done (weather, invincobridges) unless they become a need or issue.
So this is really the final edition unless there is any glaring issues that need to be solved and can be solved. After testing I guess people will just have to live with the fact that the middle chateau is invincible to piats/riflenades because there is no way to fix it. Game bug.

[EliteGrens]

Could use some bloom tbh.

[jackmccrack]

Played the map the other day and I think it's great.

My only complaint is that the disabled Stuh/Hetzer pile looks kinda scrappy.

[Ununoctium]

MUahaha all fixed and download is UP!!!
