Thank You all. Keep it up. Cant wait to play CMP in the future

In addition: "Metz", a map that has been readied up for FHT tournament play and
extensively polished by Airshark. We did test "Metz" in the last FHT campaign #17
"Darkest Hour" and the players enjoyed it a lot for its intense close quarters action.

Any newz about Metz and CMP ??

Atm we have noone who is available to put in time and polish it.
The layout of last FHT campaign could be kept, it was properly balanced imho.

What we need is someone willing to clean up the town, polish the map, add some forested area
to cover the main bases, etc.

Yeah, Pacific is pretty nice!

^ By the way, fun fact: Otolikos' last post was in 2010. :)

Like my wife says i'm not very talkative  ;D


@ Otolikos: thanks for letting us know, we are happy about every FH2 dev that takes the
time to play the CMP maps and give us constructive feedback. Even if we can't realize it
 instantly and not always one-to-one (TS4ever knows :P ). But we are happy to have you
guys watching over our shoulders and to have your advice.

I really like the mappack but some maps need optimizations,

You should try some things like this:

For Urban maps like Metz (init.con) :

renderer.globalStaticMeshLodDistanceScale 0.5
renderer.globalBundleMeshLodDistanceScale 0.5
renderer.globalSkinnedMeshLodDistanceScale 0.5


For destroyed or Bombed terrain, cliff (tmp.con):

terrainCuller.baseCellSize 256 or 128 or 64 if it takes too much ressources

But it avoids terrain lod morphing .... very frustrating when you try to shoot a guys hidden into bomb crater. Plus the terrain texture will look better ;)

Thank you otolikos, I'll forward that.

On another note: we're slowly getting back to good numbers.

In the past week I have experienced two ctds while the server was loading a CMP map. The map loaded 100%, but in the end it crashed.

Event 1:
Played Goodwood and Giarabub fine. Then Wake came up: ctd.

Event 2:
Played Luttich fine and when Argentan came up: ctd.

My CMP updater looks like this:


The error message I get when finishing loading a CMP map looks like this:


I tried downloading and extracting the maps manually, reinstalling the CMP Updater, switch off virus protection. All to no avail, the results remain as above.

Any ideas?

Forwarded it to the CMP skype group, thx.
If you manually download the CMP make sure that the levels are in their own folder
and not in a separate subfolder. So please check that you include the CMP levels in the proper
"height" in the game folder structure.

The 233 error normally says that your game files don't match the server files.
So I'm guessing something went wrong with manually extracting the levels folders
that you just downloaded manually.

I'm sorry, but, whoever thought it'd be a good idea to run the map pack download through torrent.. wtf.
It tells me I have "-1" seeders and an incredible rate of 600B/s (That's not even a kilobyte). Why did you not just upload it somewhere?

We have several seedboxes available that upload all the time.
Normally 1mbit dl speed is usual. Make sure that your Firewall or AV is not blocking
the updater/its ports.

So I'm guessing something went wrong with manually extracting the levels folders
that you just downloaded manually.
OK, when I extracted them I first put them in a newly made folder called "CMP setup" or something and then cut all folders from the levels folder into the fh2 levels folder. It then asked if I wanted to replace all files and I clicked "Yes" so I guess the location is correct.

I just tried it again and extracted the cmp.zip on my desktop. I did the same as before: I pasted the folders into my mods/fh2 folder and it asked again if I should replace all existing files with the same name. I pressed "Yes" but I can't see if it works right now because the server is running Ramelle ;)

I'll report back later.

Did that, had first signs of success, where it went up to 1 mb/s. Then the same problem again. I'm currently stuck at 2% completion and a download rate of 2-3 kb/s.  ::)

That is really strange. I had to redownload CMP earlier this week and it was done in like 20 minutes.

If your updater is still not working, you can also try this link, but then you have to install
the CMP manually (extract it, then copy the levels folders into the respective spot in your
BF2 installation folder).

https://files.fht.ovh/cmp.zip

We still urge players to use the updater and try to make it work, since it shows available updates
and helps to seed/share the CMP with other players. Bandwith for uploading is adjustable, so it does
not hamper the gaming experience.
