CEG battle pack

Yeah, all I need is the .SCO file and the map code.

Here's my first submission.

Palm Alley, lets just say that Im sort of dissappointed with how it turned out. It took me quite some time to frame a symmetrical castle-town to realize it was smaller than what I wanted. My take on this map was to have a mirror map - I think that part I succeeded at - however Im not sure it offers much for paths and strats. There are a few rooftops, and slightly larger area for cavalry (not sure if its open enough though).

At any rate - I will probably try my hand at another one before september ends.

I would toss in some more detail. I can give you some tips on certain texturing/coloring techniques I use as well if you want.

Don't be afraid to destroy your map to make it bigger or apply something. I do that all the time with my maps.

Dave, can you also put my map on to the TDM server? I would like to test the map out with the GK guys. I tried to test it tonight on my server, but everybody had to deal with the lag on my server.

TDM is probably just as laggy... I would suggest waiting till the box is out or until someone who is not laggy can host.

I don't trust that the box is going to come out sooner than I want to. Still it is better to play with a 100 ping on TDM than 180 on my server. lol

Hey.
I got small idea at this morning what kind of map I'm going to do for this and here is today's work result:
http://www.faww2.com/stuff/nord/edit2/edit3/

It is not ready yet. I need add a lot stuff and plants in tomorrow but you can see what idea I had and how it looks at current stage.

About my idea in short:
I wanted to create map like Village in native maps where you can go freely almost everywhere outside of map but in wooden/nordic theme.
Also wanted to have dried small river that goes into small lake.

( PS. I was unsure where to post this so maybe this is wrong place ? )

Looks great, you are welcome to contribute to the battle pack we are making if you want to submit this!

Yeah, it was my plan to make map for it.
I'll continue to make it tomorrow so my mind is clear when I start add details in.

Should be about finished with my Battle map. Just need a bit of testing and I'm ready to release.

Unfortunately I had to format my HD and reinstall windows so I lost this new map.
So now I need to think new map idea(s) and start new one.

I am thinking about making a trench style map. I was going to do it for siege but I am thinking I might do it for this battle pack.

That sounds nice idea.

I suggest try making a mirror map but with two separate parts. Like one side is Sarranid themed and the other Swadian?

I decided I am going to use the map I designed, Ruins Struggle for this pack. I may also continue to develop the trench style map but I erased what I had worked on so far by accident and it was a little discouraging. Ruins Struggle is already complete and ready for Battle and TDM. Just let me know when you need the files. I will be putting it on our EU test server soon.

You can see screenshots of the map in my thread.

Whats the status of this Sly?

Sorry Dave, haven't developed the interest in continuing these of late.
