[WIP] (2 - 4) Vyazma Fall

Hello chaps! So, I can't imagine many of you know who I am, but alongside Maxi, I was one of the mappers for the Eastern Front, and with all of the enjoyment I got out of working on the mod, it seemed foolish to not try to recreate some of my favourite maps for our new Overlord.

[Old Post]

So, without further delay, I present to you the 33% completed recreation of Vyazma!


(Note that this minimap still has the old "blockers" on it, which appear orange. Additionally, the western island and the central island have yet to be touched).

This map was originally designed for 4 players, with rural outskirts to an easily accessible ruined city. Thanks to both my mapping methods and the amount of removed textures/objects from WB2.0, much of the map has been scrapped and rebuilt.

However, with many new beautiful additions, I will hopefully be able to improve the visual quality of the map. In the screenshots below, you will see the completed areas of rural and forest outskirts, which will form the major flanking point of the map.























More updates are coming! Keep your eyes peeled! Any feedback will be greatly appreciated.

I will post a link once I've managed to complete the city itself and get at least a basic territory layout it. Give me a few days, and we'll be there!

Just another quick update as we hit the 60% stage! As before, the middle island has yet to be touched, but the western island is now almost completed.

Thanks for the support so far, guys! You've been great! It really gives us the drive to work faster!

And here we go, gents! At present the map is at 95%, and is entering the beta phase. While attached are screenshots for your viewing pleasure, soon the download link will be added to the first post.

Keep your eyes peeled over the next few hours, and until then, enjoy the pretties!

you should add some bushes to that church.

Bump for upload link added to first post!

Minimap is upside down, that is the only problem I see so far

Very good detail on the map other than the minimap issue, I give it 10/10

Thanks a lot! I have no idea why the minimap is the way it is, but I'll be able to fix that, I hope!

Easy tutorial on the index post, regarding the upside down mini map problem. Great work!
