Really nice evening atmosphere you've got going there.

Just as a random note for your town, from my experiences of making RO-Attila, you should take a look at how the buildings in RO-Ogledow village are embellished - they have some really neat addons to the general *box* layout that make them stand out a lot, and many of them aren't hard to do. Off the top of my head, there's raingutters made from pipes in the Industry pack, sm roof beams, those little extra roofs that help divide up the building facade, etc

Seems promising indeed. Use a shade of the skybox for the river. From low angle view water bodies usually reflect the sky.

 

[Lustmord]

Hats off,your maps looks great

 

[ViViD]

I agree really , really thoughtout and I really like the atmosphere

 

[Thorpy]

This map looks the business, release a beta soonish please xD

 

[Drecks]

This is a great looking map. I hope it plays as well as it looks and i hope
the performance will be good enough.

 

[Rich_Zap]

Thanks for all the comments guys ! I really appreciate it .

This map looks the business, release a beta soonish please xD

Im going keep working on it, no worries there. I cant promise it will be soon unfortunately because im going back to uni next week. But i can promise work will continue, at the moment its about 60% complete with the village been the main remaining section to do.

I will keep posting updates when more is completed

That map is looking very nice, cant wait to play it...
U got a name already ? i suggest Bryansk, Smolensk, Polotsk...all russian towns where fighting was going on during the eastern front...and all having a river running through the town...So something like "RO: Smolensk-Outskirts" sounds good to me...

 

[Rich_Zap]

Yeah its called Korosten (but thanks for the name suggestion anyway). I tried to change the title of the thread but was unable

 

[Tru3Slaughter]

map looks good so far if you need a server to test it contact Mike Nomad @raidersmerciless.com the RGN server is always willing to help and give input

It looks pretty good, but bottlenecks always get the thumbs down from me. Just meat grinders.

 

[Rich_Zap]

That depends how you design it, bottlenecks also concentrate the action and dont let players sneak into an objective. The axis wont get bogged down easily at those bridges, they have 2 tanks to the allies one and there is plenty of cover. Also i have a way for infantry to cross underneath the bridge so the crossing cant be held by pure nadespam.

Im also considering adding an infantry crossing between the 2 bridges but only if testing shows that teams are getting bogged down.

 

[Boosh]

This map looks to be coming along beautifully!

 

[Boogerhead]

Wow, looks very, very cool!

At first glance it reminded me of an old, abandoned fabric factory near my house that I'd thought about turning into a map. The site's surrounded by a fence, now with several holes in it. On the west side of the river "hump" is a culvert, which I thought could maybe become a TNT-able obstacle and another way into the factory complex.

Anyway, I don't know if this could give you any more inspiration, but here it is:
http://wikimapia.org/#y=42367506&x=-71196846&z=18&l=0&m=a

It's the complex of three-ish buildings in the center of the map. I might be able to get you some interior photos, if needed.

 

[Rich_Zap]

Just thought i would post a little update, since the announcement of the competition work rate has increased (i could really use a new CPU ^^). My current estimate for completion is 2 weeks at the outside also with any luck i willbe able to incorporate the new vehicles in the next release into my map.

Heres a screenshot showing the flak position and the western bridge in the distance with a view from the tower.

 

[dasKaRmA]

looks nice!
my only concern: to me, the sunlight seems a bit too yellow ( in combination with the fogcolour)
maybe make the yellow tone more subtle..but thats just finetuning.

keep it up.

 

[<RTR> Redeye]

It looks great Rich_Zap, thx for making another combined arms map from someone who loves tanking If you want a place to beta test it, holler at me and we'll put it on one of the Right To Rebel tank servers.

 

[Rich_Zap]

I most certainly will , as soon as i get it finished i want to give it as much testing as possible to iron out the flaws before the competition deadline

 

[aceto]

layout and screens are looking really good.

as as suggestion i would not map the fortifications at bridge this linear. sandbags and this roadblocks are loocking to clean. try to make them more chaotic. and perhaps destroy the sides of the bridge a bit.

and could you please post more screens, so we can offer more criticism and suggestions?

Loo-king Good Man!!!
