Yes. That would be cool
No. Too cold for me

A call to modders and a poll
« on: 21-08-2010, 19:08:48 »
Hello there! I tough about something. I would like to make some winter maps. I said myself that to map those, I would need some camo for germans (I don't know if allies were using too?) and winter textures for other things (like barbed wires, flak 88, etc). So if I can have a modder support on texturing assets and statics for me when I need some, I would launch me in the mapping of winter maps! Exemples : Bastogne, Battle of the Bulge, etc.

EDIT : I'm talking about those kind of things :

Hi, although it is very nice that you want to make maps, you can only use stuff that is already in the mod. Check the gamefiles, maybe you can already find something which fits your needs. The devs make stuff they think is needed for the mod, or they make it on a mapper's request. But, that only goes for mappers in the devteam.

So there are two solutions for your problem I can think of:

1) make the stuff you need yourself
2) apply to the team to become a mapper

what about making a nice small map for us with existing statics, and show us your mappingskills, rather then storming the forums to ask for statics because you're in a crazy mood thinking to making a wintermap ..

luftwaffe - That's a cool idea
Slayer - Where can I check the gamefiles? I guess with Bf2 editor no?

And I know some about mapping, I tried to map for PR but I rather map for FH2.

I think so, but I might be wrong. I have never done it, nor have I made a map.

Do not start with Battle of the Bulge - too famous - means fh2 team should allready be planning this, or might even have started a mapping project :)

Battle of Foy was a part of Battle of the Bulge  ;)

Ok, so maybe I will do other kind of maps. No problem for me. IF I get the editor working with FH2. Because I can't place any Fh2 object on a map. I just don't have the browser of all objects :(

Well, I guess that's why he showed the snowstorm, I was wondering about that. Love it 8)

OT-Trenchcoats will do.
