Everyone, so far we have only received footage of Winterwald. If you have any good footage of Rakowice, Stalngrad Kessel, or Arad 2 Tanks please contact Yoshiro via PM and get him the files ASAP.

[®omano]

depends on server I guess, camera mode are server side options.

Anothers maps will join the party ? (univermag ? coldsteel ? bridges ? gumrak station ?...)

I'd love to see Univermag, Coldsteel and Gumrak Station becoming official, too. I welcome every well done map, which is suitable for the Stalingrad scenario.
By the way does anybody know, if the Ro1 map "Traktor Works" will be converted or redone as Ro2 map?

Cold steel and Gumrak Station are already being made official. They will be released at the same time as Bridges.

What about Univermag? I've seen it listed in the mapping contest phase 2 thread... Would be a shame, if this nice map was missed out.

What Univermag not included?? For me its one of the best maps so far!!!!

 

[Yoshiro]

It entered phase two of the contest after being a winner in phase one. Unfortunately, it didn't make it in phase 2, and won't be included in the next map pack. I would like to see continued development for this map and for it to be polished up though. Hopefully, if there is ever another mapping contest, it will be included in the game some day.

I agree that Univermag is a great map, but it does need some work (especially centered around the Second objective). I can see us taking that map official sometime down the road if it got updated.

Actually, the cap zones, including the first two, play rather well. They're challenging and offer a good degree of team satisfaction when capped.

The physics need work. Shoot someone and they usually launch 50-100' into the air.

The lighting inside the buildings needs some TLC and the tunnels need better access.

Otherwise, this is a great and very deserving custom map.

I read from danh that the launching into the air could be fixed with just ticking one setting in the terrain properties. Some things like the look of the buildings could be spiced up a bit too, the cornerhouse looks almost untouched from any bombings. Other than that, I find that the Germans fly through the map based on the allocated time. There is usually like 20 minutes left in the map when the Germans cap F and G. Then, there is just a long drawn out battle for the Univermag where a lot of the Germans just hug the outer wall of the building, and the Allies being able to reinforce the building really quickly. However, despite all this, I still have a blast playing the map from both sides.
