Thread: Custom Loading Screen Problem!14 Jun 2014, 17:48 PM Hi, I am currently working on a map and I wanted to have a custom loading screen, I created the tga file with the correct name and placed it where all my other map files are and made sure that the picture was 1920 x 1080. Whenever I test it the game just presents a black screen when loading the match. Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thanks In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: (2 - 2) Mountain Top Obliteration27 May 2014, 04:26 AM UPDATE: __________________________________________________________________________ Mountain Top Obliteration has just been updated with LOS Objects (Line of Sight Objects) and Shot Blocker Objects! The centre of the map (Frozen Lake) should be a lot better now for combat! _________________________________________________________________________ If you have any problems with the LOS and Shot Blocker Objects then let me know!

Thread: (2 - 2) Mountain Top Obliteration27 May 2014, 02:22 AM Jump back to quoted post27 May 2014, 00:02 AMPureBunk I gave it a go. You got the atmosphere down, and it's really nice. Colours and mood are great. Here's some stuff I think you should keep in mind for your next map. Try not to make mountains or hills too steep and high. It messes with the camera views and means players will have to rotate their camera a lot. The mountains on the edge of your map weren't a problem, it was mostly the ones in the middle causing some issues. Also, when you have mountains like that, units can still see through and shoot through the terrain. You should use LoS and Shot blocker objects/splines to prevent that so that they act like real mountains. Take a look at Tip of the Week #10, it will explain how the blockers work and their advantages. Very useful for when you want to use terrain to block units sight. Keep it up! Ok cool thanks for the feedback, I'm still learning all of the little secrets to world builder haha! I'll check out the tip of the week and will add LoS and shot blockers to stop the troops from seeing through the terrain and will update the map through Steam. Thanks for playing! In: Map Sharing

Thread: (2 - 2) Mountain Top Obliteration23 May 2014, 23:56 PM Hey, I've recently just finished my latest map and thought I'd post it here. Mountain Top Obliteration is a primarily a 2 VS 2 map that can be played on both victory point and annihilation. It is a map that is designed around the idea of two armies fighting on top of a mountain. I have tried to add some element of elevation to the map making units having to climb up a steep hill gives the element of them being on a mountain.

Thread: Deleting undeletable objects/entities21 May 2014, 05:33 AM I managed to fix this problem shortly after posting this thread. I looked in older forum posts and Googled it and found a fairly simple solution. For anyone else who has this problem in the future the solution is, In World Builder bring up the console by pressing the (') on your keyboard. From there type "wb_orphan_nuke_entity", hover over the entity you want to delete and hit enter. This will delete the entity. I had to do it four times. Shoutout to Srinidhalaya for first posting the solution, saved me a lot of stress haha Glad it is fixed! I'll leave this thread open to help anyone else with this problem, but if any admin wants to delete it they can do. In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: Deleting undeletable objects/entities21 May 2014, 05:13 AM Hi, I placed a mortar vehicle into the map and it brought 4 troops with it, I deleted the vehicle but the soldiers are still there. I have tried to select to the unit and tried to delete them but no luck. In game they are still there, it's really annoying me. If anyone knows any solution to this please let me know thanks!

Thread: How To Use Ice Tool in Map Builder12 May 2014, 01:36 AM Hi, I've started to create my new map. This time I want to really focus on creating a snow/ice winter style map. I tried adding ice to the map but I have no idea on how to actually use the "Ice Tool" when I use it it doesn't add ice to the map. I have searched for tutorials but I can't seem to find anything. It is probably extremely simple so if anyone could explain on how to use the tool so ice will be placed in the map then that would be fantastic! Thanks In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: (2 v 2) Overgrown1 May 2014, 21:57 PM Welcome to Overgrown. A once lush and peaceful region has been riddled with battles throughout the years and has the scars to prove it. Both Russians and Germans want this piece of land as it provides a great strategic point and a multitude of supplies for their armies. Neither of them want to give in but only one can be victorious! ________________________________________________________________________ Overgrown is a large map that can be used in a victory points match or annihilation matches. Use tanks, artillery and infantry to destroy the lush landscape. - Battle through winding forests, farms and industrial parks to counter the enemies offensive - Find hidden paths through the forest to flank your enemy - Overgrown is perfect for snipers to scout around deserted landscapes and neutralise critical units - Discover hidden supplies and weapons left by previous armies that once battled in the landscape - Witness the civilian costs of war and discover the scars and poor souls of battles past that have been left to rot. ________________________________________________________________________ Atmoshpere - Overgrown has the rainy and thundery sky that provides a great battle atmosphere and really highlights explosions and traces of bullets. Game Mode(s) - Overgrown can be used in 1 v 1 or 2 v 2 in Victory Point matches of Annihilation matches ________________________________________________________________________ This is my second map that I have created, my first being a map called Shipment. I feel I improved in the map makin skills since Shipment and I am of course pleased with the overall result of Overgrown but of course if you have feedback or encounter any problems then feel free to post them and I will help. If you like the map then please subscribe to it, rate it and share it! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=255293132&searchtext=Overgrown In: Map Sharing
Thread: 1 v 1 Shipment1 May 2014, 20:02 PM I have just got into creating maps for Company of Heroes 2 and created my first map, Shipment. Shipment was primarily a way for myself to get used to the world builder program and get a grip on what each tool does in the program. The map is primarily designed for small bloody encounters that focuses mainly on infantry. Shipment takes references from the Call of Duty 4 map Shipment and uses the the industrial and CQC battles to ensure intense and bloody action. There are three victory points in the map itself and each victory point (Junkyard, Garrison and the main victory point in the centre) If you want to have a look at it or feel like you would like to subscribe to it then feel free to! http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=251781523&searchtext= In: Map Sharing
