Thread: Sector layout and hills.18 Dec 2013, 01:10 AM Quite like the concept with the hill, but not keen on the spider design, would work better with more standardly placed sectors leading to the hill. Also looks like it might have too many sectors, Onkle's tutorial recommends 10 strat points along with the 2 fuel, 2 muni. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: Phantom Germans.17 Dec 2013, 21:57 PM Thanks a lot! In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: Phantom Germans.17 Dec 2013, 20:24 PM Ive been exploring all the models available in the WB, and after spawning a couple of german 250 HTs, there is a bunch of german soldiers on the map that cannot select, move or delete. I deleted the HTs, but the stubborn krauts wont leave Only problem is Ive saved over my backup, so cant go back to an earlier save. Anyone know how to send them packing? In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: Watchtower.17 Dec 2013, 17:05 PM Thanks a lot for the quick reply. That clears it up. So playing on the safe side, if you do place a watch tower, have it as an extra sector. In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: How to: Create a map layout and draw sectors17 Dec 2013, 17:02 PM Jump back to quoted post20 Nov 2013, 07:44 AMQvazar Hm, it seems I can only get the "see lines through territory colors" intensity trick to work on some maps. It's really annoying when it's not possible to see them Edit: Aha, it also depends a lot on the texture you have on your map! With dirt_base it was impossible, but with dirt_muddy_wet it is VERY easy to see the splines! What helped me here was doing it roughly with the overlay OFF and just following the splines, then going back to tidy it up flicking the overlay on and off. In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: Watchtower.17 Dec 2013, 16:51 PM If I want to place a watch tower, should that be used instead of a normal strat point within a sector? i.e. I will now have 9 strat points, and a watch tower, instead of 10 normal point? Will the economy function the same as if I just had 10 strat points as normal. Thanks In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: Grass not showing in game17 Dec 2013, 14:29 PM Just a wild stab in the dark, but its not to do with your video settings is it? Have you checked you can see grass on an existing map? Sometimes things like that get dumbed down on low settings. In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: vs Hans, tiger ace lololol17 Dec 2013, 14:27 PM When hans was pop capped, The OSt which other wise didnt do much could have rushed Andys base and killed a squad or two before being killed itself. He should have used his units to force engagements to do damage at the same time as being killed, and called the Ace sooner. When he did call the Ace, he'd already lost half of his army. In: Replays
Thread: What do pro players want in a map?17 Dec 2013, 07:34 AM Hi Nox, I'm aiming to do the same as you. I think player made maps could make it into live rotation, but obviously they will have to be really good and prove popular in the steam workshop 1st. I'm thinking basically a mix of your criteria, small to medium, some houses, not too many, some chokes, ocassional open bits. I want to try have a lot of fun with true sight. I thi k the hardest part is getting a good layout that is interesting, creates good battles and is balanced In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: remove sector artillery and IL2 attacks16 Dec 2013, 22:36 PM Stuka strafe will kill a full health IS2 on it own now if the IS2 is engine damaged. At least these abilities are late game and require a lot of munis. Relic moved away from American airborne strafe and Infantry arty at 2 CP which instantly countered the 1st pak for a quick M8. They made arty more late game. In: COH2 Gameplay
