[lucky.BOY]

lol, maybe it is trying to pass a message in binary?

[Kevokpo]

looks like morse code, lol

Woah! Nice map, because....... I live about 20-40 miles from where this map takes place.

[Arnoldio]

Nice! Good thing you didnt go all straight on the roads. Some twists here and there up and down, thats what i like, so its not a chessboard like Ramiel.

[SShadowFox]

This remember me a mission on CoD:MW2 where the Russians do para-drop right on Northeastern Virginia.

I'm really rooting for this map. High time a battle came to America... its been what? Since 1812 that the continent has been hit by anothing non-neighboring country.

I wont give you a hassle about the setting of the map versus it being impossible as of now (like I hate on MW2 for, it needed at least a justification about Naval Landings too! grrrr) as we don't need a story set-up.... we just need the battle.

Fixed

That's why some people play PR lolo

Heureux theres more inaccuracies in that fixed quote than in Faux News report on the Netherlands

[Pvt.LHeureux]

Hey it was still comming from another country though ^^

[BroCop]

Reread the quote (protip: the word "by" is the key to my argument)

Still derailing this thread wont speed up the production process

Is there an update with this map?

is there going to be Bot Support?

[Shovel]

I'm Back!

I have been unable to work on the map for the past few months, but rest assured I am back to work, and I will be working very heavily on this map for the next few months.

Anyway, yesterday's update:
I have been working on overygrowth and roads, and everything is coming along nicely.

Pictures:

Road between the shopping center and the NW suburbs(needs bushes/undergrowth on sides):


Bridge near NW corner of map:


Southern forest (soon to be a road here):


I cannot get the overgrowth to show on the minimap, any ideas?

The second screenshot reminds me of one of the missions from World in Conflict GJ so far

hey im lookng forward to see this map finished!
about the overgrowth, you ned to turn it into statics AFAIK, you do thionk by lightmapping one very simple object of your map i think it turns the overhrowth into statics and therefor making it appear on the minimap

Not sure exactly what you mean by that, I remember it involving console commands, but I cannot find the tutorial.

you can do that or:

Overgrowth.con

Code: Select all

Overgrowth.viewDistance 995
Overgrowth.viewDistanceScale 1
Overgrowth.closeDistPercentage 0.5

Do you mean the one where you protect the school buses?

Anyways I can't wait for you to get started again on this man. I'm excited to see how it'll turn out.

I find upping the VD like that means that the seed is changed and as such, the trees are all in different positions, not matching there lightmaps. For the most part it you can't spot it on a minimap but in some cases, mainly where there are very few trees about, you can.

[Pvt.LHeureux]

I think you will need to change some trees. If you use the Tree_Decidious_1, you will need to remove them, cause they have REALLY BAD LODs

when you change it only in the Overgrowth.con as I said nothing happens, its fine for generating Minimaps though you shouldnt GenerateOvergrowth as this will modify the tree positions
