Heya,

Thanks. :)
When is the cutoff date for map submissions? I'd like to submit my "Omaha 2" mod if I can finish it in time.
No cut off right up to first week of league start , however the sooner the better, oh btw are you coming back Rabban , and if so please sign up in the other thread "recruitment phase" thanxs

Just a lil hint from a retired ol war mogul.
I came across this thing. May be sumptn for the more tech savvy dudes to look into, if you want to avoid repetition of what happened (or did not happen) during last seasons schedulings... ;)

Awright, checking out again. Wish you have a great league this time, newcomers and oldies alike!
Hey all,
How is development going on the russian steppes and the urban map. Let me know
Check Yahoo email... :)
@ Loepard
As discussed I have added the extra trees, moved the ammo gates and power ups. Sent you a screenie, hope all is good. CB will be hosting the TBML version on his server so you can test it out there.
Daz
Thanxs guys, been busy will be looking at maps soon and finalizing... Any word on urban and russian yet?
Russian is the one I emailed to you.
Leop, I have a map that I made a couple of months back called stonewalled. It's kind of a ruins sort of place. You may want to check it out and see if you think this would be good for TBM. I think it's a stratigic kind of map. It was made for scrum but would adapt well for TBM. There are lots of broken walls for cover, some elevated areas for sniping and a few speedpads. The spawns should be balanced too. I always set a one-two (grren-blue) when I'm adding spawns.
You may want to check it out. I have in running in my server.

Lep
The files have been sent!
@ Lep Check out the map I'm running now, I'm away for a long weekend so let it load for a bit. Maybe you want to add this one to TBM 6 selection. "Shipwrecked"
E-Mail me if you want the.mis file for this.
CB

Lancer
Anyone super modders working on the burned out ww2 city map???
I may be able to get a few objects for the map of broken buildings, het in touch if so.
Daz
Hey daz will get the changes to you on rhine bridge soon
^ already done and I emailed the.mis and.ter to you, did you not get it? Was sent, if I remember to your yahoo address.
If not I will send again
Daz
@CB
Shipwrecked is not bad, however make the beach around the whole map and distribute the spawns/hills a little bit more equally
Thanxs
Lep
@ Lep
That map is already released, I will build a new Island one similar with beach all the way around but not sure when im going to havet the time. Liquor is working on some burnt out tanks and buildings for burnt out city mod but they will never make the deadline
No problem about urban we can have it occur down the line in the season, we can start out using the other ones we have to date
^ Did you get the email with the updated Battle Bridge files?
Also did you consider Napalms Easy Street for the unban one
It already exists etc
I took a look at some of the maps for TML6 and as much as I was impressed with the artwork, I was sometimes struck by the inadequacy for BM. It is one thing to make a strange, unusual, different kinda map and quite an other thing to make a good TBM map. The two are not mutually exclusive but you gotta be cautious. Absolute priority should be given to practicability or all your nice features and ingenuity will be wasted.
Examples:
- Dazzle's bridges map. 3 very nice looking bridges looking very real and all. But who's gonna cross them just to be trapped in a narrow corridor? I think 1 very wide bridge would have made a much more fun and playable map.
- Black forest. Many trees, and more trees and even more trees. Don't even try to go backward on that one and for some reason that map is hard on the eyes too.
- Shipwrecked2. This is such an awesome map you feel like moving there. But hills are very steep and I know some players will just won't budge from these high tops. By the same token I know who's never going to be on the beach.
One thing has to be understood. Rough terrain, sharp angles and steep hills helps the unskilled and defensive player. Though there's nothing wrong with playing more or less defensive at times, it is wrong to expect one team only to chase the other because it is always hiding. Of course both can hide, but this isn't the most fun you can have with your pants on. Therefore map designs should deter this behavior instead of encouraging it. Strategy is welcome in TBM and you don't necessarily have to fight heads on but every team needs to do it's share in making the fight happen. TBM isn't about holding real estate.
I'm afraid many of these maps aren't suitable for TBM as they are today.
But who's gonna cross them just to be trapped in a narrow corridor?
If your on the other side, me.
Some reason that map is hard on the eyes too.
Get glasses, happens when you get older
By the same token I know who's never going to be on the beach.
Thats ok if your not on the beach. The thought of you in a skimpy speedo scares me. But if you want to meet there and compare turrets......
Honestly though all good points. I have only had a glimpse of some of these. Has any take a look at spawn points? I myself prefer to have spawn points diveded up by color so you don't have the other team spawing behind you.
BTW- I am against an all euro team. I want my wiz and bedo dang it.
While I differ with Stan on some of his latter statements about play, I do agree that the maps need to be looked over carefully for playability in TBML. Most of the points he makes could be legit and make for poor games and bad playability for the league. This does not mean that they are BAD maps - just might not be just right for the league.
Perhaps they need to go onto a server for evaluation by some vets...
Thoughts?
