OK, I have now completed the new map called "Tilt".
YES, I do have another map called Tilt, but i'm going to remove that from my profile since it was a stupid POS map that took hardly any effort to do.
So now I present you with the new "Tilt"

Tilt is designed to be a team map, with both horizontal and vertical warfare coming into play.
Players fight along girders and there are a few ladders to prevent congestion, I shouldnt really need to describe the layout too much as you can already see how it looks in the pictures above, but i will say that the map is on a 10 degree tilt to give the feeling of vertigo, I wish i could do at least another 5 degrees, however the ladders only tilt 10 degrees which is a bummer.

I uploaded a new map too! It's called "Black Forest" and believe it or not, it's not a garden map! It's set in a jungle BUT... you won't recognize the usual jungle maps feeling we always see. It's very hilly, with rocky cliffs, a few huts & fences everywhere. Maybe you'll find it confusing the first time but you'll soon get used to it. Check it out:

It's currently waiting for authorisation so test it when it's available and leave a feedback!

As most of you already know, i'm working on a little map called CabinFever, which is kind of a play off of my lodge map...you know, log cabins, fire pits and lots of trees xD. I've also made a lil vid of it so check it out. This ones a little shorter =P

CabinFever Vid (don't forget to watch in high quality)

Oh no way 4ev3r, that's not cool, contact alienware and get the thing replaced.Nice video R6, I love the music used for it, is that out of braveheart?

Mar 26 2009, 9:34pm Anchor

Thnx otre... the music is actually from Last of the Mohicans, although it kinda has a brave heart ring to it.  I didn't want to use that at first, but unable to quickly find a better solution i chose that lol, seemed to workout ok though.

that sucks forevers, can't break ur pc already haha, need to get your fc2 fixed

by the way f0u we played black forest, nice map, tricky at first though.  I used the explosives along the trail alot and got many kills with them xD.

BlackForest is updated! I added paths, signs & a few things. There's now 2 secret ways to reach the other team's diamonds. And try to find the easter egg!

Mar 28 2009, 10:31pm Anchor

hey, finally got some free time, those videos are great.  I haven't had time to think of doing something really but I've got some music in mind.  I saw a video that was pretty well done.  Trailers.gametrailers.com   out of the many there are.  Alright maybe I'll see ya around in the rotations.  TDM might work well for that.  later

I meant this one.  Gametrailers.com

Ok for those who don't know, R6 has a new server hosting my WW2 maps for a WW2 campaign, I believe the server is called "D-Day INVASION 24/7 [NO SNIPING]"
So join in, it's absolute madness, and never seems to get old.
Here is some info and screenies:

The campaign server is a "series" of maps, meaning it is played out in stages, rather than random maps.

So far the current maps (in order) are:
"otreum - d - day"
(Beach landing, incredible fun when server is full and nobody snipes)
VIDEO:
Youtube.com

"Beyond the beach - into the townstead"
(this is the little town you see at the back of the otreum - d - day map, players fight along a small town/village)
SCREENSHOTS:

"Amongst the Hedgerows"
(located past the townstead/village, this map puts the fighting into the hedgerow fields around a farm property that is home to the defenders.

-----------------------
 PLANNED MAPS
-----------------------

The maps to come arent 100% planned yet, they are still being discussed, however I'm thinking the next maps will be (in order).

- Forest trench fight, where there will be a series of trench lines in a linear gameplay style which will need to be taken over, team work and timing will be essential to winning.

- Town bridge crossing, if players have played call of duty, they will probably know where I got the inspiration from (the level where you glide in behind enemy lines)

- Hill base attack, This will be an attack on an enemy base dug into a hill top, im similar fashion to the radar in saving private ryan, and the medal of honor game.

If anybody has more ideas, feel free to share, only I will be working on the maps, so feel free to share ideas, not maps.

        ------------------------
HOW THE MAP ROTATION WORKS
        ------------------------

Because players would like to attack and then defend, R6 has asked that I make a "team swap" version of every map, so that nobody has to swap teams or shuffle the teams, this means that everyone gets a go at defending and attacking. So if you join the server, please do not shuffle teams or swap teams, you WILL get your turn at either defence or attack ;)
Right now I have asked eagle to play all maps through first without team swap, and once the campaign has ended, the team swap versions start back at the start again.
For example the map order currently is:
- "otreum - d - day"     (UFLL attacking, APR defending)
- "beyond the beach - into the townstead"     (UFLL attacking, APR defending)
- "Amongst the hedgerows"    (UFLL attacking, APR defending)
- "otreum - d - day [team swap]" (UFLL defending, APR attacking)
- "beyond the beach - into the townstead [team swap]" (UFLL defending, APR attacking)
- "Amongst the hedgerows [team swap]" (UFLL defending, APR attacking)

I'll upload the new maps to my moddb profile tomorrow.

hey 4ev3r :), jump on the d-day server now man :)
I'm not in it, but apparently it's filled to the brim, see if you can get in on the action ;)

Here is the new map, taking appoximately 10-12 hours (give or take, I had alot of breaks in between as this was a super tedious map to make)

"Trench offensive"
This map is located in a forest clearing where the enemy have dug in as a defense position along the defence front, allies have decided to try and storm this fortification for it's strategic advantage since it seems to lead straight into one of the major towns behind enemy lines.
One team starts out in a forest area and have to run towards the trenched area in order to take it over, capture points are at each set of trenches.
Defenders have plenty of mounted mg emplacements that are dug in and pretty safe from enemy fire, so it is vital that defenders get on these emplacements in order to gain the strategic advantage.
Attackers have a mortar near the forest edge behind a fallen tree in order to bombard the trenches, this can help with the attack in a big way, but is somewhat vunerable to being shot.
Here are some screenshots from in game:

man, at least I'm not the only one that seems to have little time these days.  Maybe I'm also a bit exhausted with the editor and game.  That D-day server sounds like alot of fun, but anytime I catch a free moment, the server is empty.  I was considering the DLC for $5 but I'm unsure about if I can still play with all that didn't get the DLC.  Anyways, I'll try to catch you guys around.  Just seems theres a bit more on my plate now as opposed to a month ago so even trying to get a quick video together is rather consuming but it is a nice change of pace from just building or gunnin.  By the way I am just using Windows movie maker and Fraps and haven't had too much difficulty doing what I'd like to do although there are alot of reasons I'd like to get Adobe CS4 except for the price, which will cost me my left nut (of which I am particularly fond of keeping right now).  Hate to see this ole community die or fizzle out but I'm sure we all find time to be a bit more precious these days, so good luck to everyone and godspeed.  maybe cya around later

Everyone has their own lives, so we can't all play  online alot, that is totally understandable, still though, it's good to chat online and what not, so if you have steam or messenger okayplayer then feel free to pm to us.

BTW, here is a video of Ultra Tank...it's nothing fancy, and I recommend watching in High quality as youtubes compression makes standard quality look like arse.
