Omaha Beach would be a great crowd-pleaser for Americans.

As I'm sure you know, one of the turning points of the assault happened when the Allied destroyers came in close to the beach and put direct fire on the German defenses.  You can incorporate this into the map like the P51 strike on the Ramelle-Neuville map.  Then have the action flip from the beach to the bluffs.

Our new server is now in the FH2 Awards database, WaW #1 2.45 RANKED - bfewaw.com.

I am trying to get stats that were linked to our past server, WaW #1 2.45 RANKED bfewaw.com, linked to our new one. It doesn't impact your personal awards, but keeps things nice and tidy. 

Show up for play this Thursday to get some stats put on our new server. 
Play usually starts around 8pm EST (New York).

Does Mumble work with FH2 now?  Or do you mean VOIP, which is working I believe?

You should post suggestion for the WaW server here: http://bfewaw.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2071
The people who can make changes don't always read this thread.

By the way, we're doing custom maps on Friday again and we have a fixed Operation Nordwind FH1 plus all the 64 player versions just in case we get a real crowd.

Chad and I are on now

We are going to run the custom maps on the WaW server Friday Nov 8. 

8pm US Eastern(GMT 1am Nov 9?)  will be the start of Custom Friday Event.

Same maps as this Sunday

Everyone is welcome.  Hope to see you there.

Ok guys
We will have a couple of new maps to download this Sunday.  Look for waw_cs_Overloon and waw_cs_Ratrace. 
We probably wont have any patches to the other maps.  Just download the full versions if you don't have them from last week.

We are working to put a map pack together in the next couple of weeks, so your feedback on maps will be greatly appreciated.  That we wont have to patched the maps after the map pack release.

* If you crashed on waw_cs_Operation Nordwind FH1 last week like I did, remove the older Operation Nordwind from your levels folder and maybe re-install the waw_cs one.  That worked for me.

See you there.

Sorry about that Jan
We are clean it up some in the near future.  We just moved our servers last week.  Anyway, I probably shouldn't have posted the direct link to the maps above last week without more explanation.  A lot of guys who read this thread have already got the minimod and have most of the maps.  They just need the patches and new maps.

I hope to have all our stuff in one map-pack soon.  I am grateful for you guys who have made the effort.  You guys are true pioneers.

Anyway,
 If you are new please start here:  http://bfewaw.com/showthread.php?t=291883
There are instructions and the links you need.

If you have been there before and have the minimod and some maps you can go here for the latest maps and patches: http://www.bfewaw.co.uk/maps/battles/wawfh2event/
The (full) version doesn't require the patch.

Some people have been confused about our localization file.  Don't worry, it won't overwrite anything and it's not necessary to run the maps.  It just changes HUD_teamname_BB to Canadian Bushwacking Beavers, etc.  If you feel unsure, you don't have to do it.

Thanks for the feedback

Try putting your Mobo in the oven to re-flow the solder.  I fixed a graphics card that way.  What have you got to lose?

The custom maps are running tonight on WAW Thursday pubby Custom map server:  174.133.0.59

Download the minimod and maps at:   http://www.bfewaw.co.uk/maps/battles/wawfh2event/


You should start out on the regular server with the regular maps and then come over when or if you can enough people interested.
