Will give it a shot when I get a chance

Looks cool! I was worried you'd given up on it

 

[Rivimies]

Please name map .roe file with -B1 instead of Beta. Or something similar, but clearly unique.

Map names are critical for server keepers for redirecting map files.

Mess with Subbase map files was not fun. We had to rename map on our server and force all clients to download that again.

Public Players will hate on you as the map is so dark, just like they did with my revision of StalingradKessel. But seriously, it looks great! Are there actually alligators in it?

 

[G_Sajer]

Stop being overly influenced when some folks whine. Battles took place at night in spite of some people suffering from notions otherwise.

I'll have this running on Crucible by noon. Then perhaps I'll showcase it with some others in a reduced map list during the afternoon.

 

[G_Sajer]

In; load-tested, and functional on TWI's Crucible.

 

[crazy monkey]

thank you everyone

>>Rivimies
Don't worry, beta version release is only one.
The next version will be a formal v1.

>>Raven1986
Yes dark map is not much liked, but I wanted to reproduce the effect of flares.
I will create the next 2 version of the map, dark and a little bright ver.
server admin you can choose either.

 

[G_Sajer]

The map is fine. Yu are the champion; because you make them in the first place. You have more support here than you know. Follow your creative instincts, and you will be rewarded.

 

[crazy monkey]

Thanks for the advice

Just when you are ready to tie a brick to your computer and drop it off a pier...G_Sajer is there to talk you off the ledge.

Keep up the good work crazy monkey!

Great job keep up the good work. Up and running on *Army of Northern Virginia (ANV) | CLOWNS | (Classic, Customs)

Great stuff Crazy Monkey.

Played it twice today. First with only 24 players and I was defending. So scary. Loved it.

Second time was with 64 players and I was attacking. Wow. Big difference. Suggest making the middle caps so they can not be retaken after they have been won. Maybe extend the cap time for them to compensate the defending team.

Though this is first opinion and I have been so bloody critical of people giving feedback about maps after only a few plays.

But I think you are onto something very nice here. The immersion is terrific. The jungle seems so dense with the lighting. And ITS NOT TOO DARK.

Perhaps a tweak on the time increasing it a few minutes might be considered.

Great stuff !

Also, are those flares triggered by movement or just random ?

 

[crazy monkey]

thanks for feedback everyone

I have planted the area trigger in the river.
Launch automatically when the player enters the river.

I have to adjust the balance now.
attack side too hard

I thought that might be the case. Excellent work.

Try setting the B and C caps so they cant be re capped. That's maybe all you need to do to swing the balance.

I think there might have been a problem with Squad Leaders not showing up on the map though I cant confirm. Will check again the next time I play or perhaps someone else can confirm if there is a problem with the SLs.

-known bug
Because the river has a little covers, probably SL spawn of the allied does not act of B and C route...

 

[G_Sajer]

This sounds like it will work much better. It appears that the Axis side should make doctrinal use of the Banzai as a matter of habit on the initial assault. that should give the attack a lot more weight.

I'll get this updated on Crucible right away.

weight? it's arty? cover?
thank you for update Crucible

 

[nymets1104]

weight? it's arty? cover?
thank you for update Crucible

In this case weight = strength
