Well, I'm back with another map, and its different than anything I've ever made (except for that one Ohama beach map I made awhile back.) This map was inspired by the Soviet campaign in Call of Duty and the opening scene in Enemy at the Gates. You play as either the Soviets (Red) who try to retake Stalingrad and the Square of Fallen Heroes by crossing the Volga river, or playing as the Germans (blue) and protecting Stalingrad. I decided to make this a INF map because it just seems to fit the best. Thanks to Haro's ingenius idea, I reversed the spawns of the flags, so now the objective is for the Soviets (red) to get the flag (which spawns behind the truck) to the Red Square.

Well, this is a pretty straight-forward INF map. Grab and run. Protect and attack. Same same. A new twist to custom mapping I think is the lack of fuel you get on this map. It adds to the realism of it. Oh, and the odds are greatly against the Soviets (red) but I did that on purpose to emphasize the real battle.

Theres a couple of minor minor bugs on the map, most noticably the ground seems to be bugged at certain places. It's not a major distraction, though. No biggy.

Also, I think I hit the limit for Scenery, so the map didn't turn out as great as I thought it would be. Stupid scenery cap. BLEH.

Total time: Approximately 2 hours.

===================
UPDATE
===================
Version 2.1 of inf_Stalingrad

-Added second stories to some buildings
-Added more stationary guns
-Added paratrooper spawnpoints for the Soviets
-Added FULL BOT SUPPORT. Occasional Red flag carrier not capping the flag.
-Added "secrets" to the edge of the world

===================


Enjoy,

inf_Stalingrad.pms [VERSION 2.1]

New hosting for the map and the scenery fix that should allow you to play it.

Map

haha i beta tested it before it came out i feel teh special, anyways man it pwns

Woo... that map is goood looking. Red'll have one heck of a time getting in ;)

If you don't want the people to go all the way back with the flag, try setting a flag spawn point near the other one.

EDIT: I see the waypointing problems. Try waypointing around it, instead of through.

looks really good from the s/s's you provided

Awhh man that looks so cool, but the link's not working for me! It's been happening a lot lately. This sucks.

You have to copy/paste the whole link- The forum doesn't pick up the '(1).zip' part.

not bad, not bad... [:P]

Ohh thanks a bunch frogboy.. I'm a little slow when it comes to these things, *sigh*

fixed your siggy, eh Lil_Fuka? anyway...i think you could have made it a little bit better visually, you know, clearer? (if that's a word at all) anyway, i like it, so im download it. BEEP

I tried to make this map look as realistic to a war-torn city as possible. Also I tried to make this THE World War 2 map to put all the Ohama ones to shame. Think I succeeded?

/me is speechless............

awesome!

holy poopy thats awsome...and you say that only took you 2 hours to make?!?!?!

IT'S GOT VEHICLES!!!! It looks awesome, though.... very awesome... definitly the ultimate WWII map.

Looking good....but I dont mess with maps that have extra scenery sorry.

looks interesting...

Wow! Nice map!

BTW... A few months ago, I was making a map with extra sceneries with the same theme (Stalingrad), but I haven't finished it. [B)]

its cool...especially with the henshin mod!!!
oh yea i for got...you should make it so the water is not colliding and the have the person drown to there doom!!! and you should make parratroopers too....and make sure mike puts this map on 1.2!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I'm up for a version 2 of this map. There will be no graphical changes.

I am going to add:

Second stories to certain buildings to allow higher access.

Paratroopers who land extremely close to the capture point to balance out the gameplay between both sides.

Secrets to the "Edge of the world"


---I'm up for requests and advice. Feel free to comment.

Thanks for downloading! I hope you guys like the map.


Also, I recommend playing any of these four songs while playing this map, specifically "Call of Duty" and "Pegasus Bridge". These songs are from Call of Duty, the greatest WWII game ever created.

http://www.michaelgiacchino.com/cod.htm

Very awesome map.

I can't get it too work (i'm sure there is a simple answer to this) It just says something about not being allowed to change the graphics. Help.

I have no clue.

load the map in the map editor and then save it but dont change anything...then it will work....btw the bots cant even get outta their own spawn

I'm working on the waypoints. They are coming along nicely. Expect version 2 today.

it looks like china....

===================
UPDATE
===================
Version 2 of inf_Stalingrad

-Added second stories to some buildings
-Added more stationary guns
-Added paratrooper spawnpoints for the Soviets
-Added FULL BOT SUPPORT (I worked my ass off for these)
---preferably played with no bots on your side if playing as Red. It's too hard to get the flag carrier to not change paths halfway. Fun, though, when going against several blue teams.
-Added "secrets" to the edge of the world

incredible, absolutely incredible...frigen fantastic...nvm me im just admiring the pure beauty of this being called inf_Stalingrad

Heh coolies I saw a prewiew WEWT lol I loved it then I love it now =D

you have played call of duty it has stalingrad map too and its just like that

(sorry my bad english)

> -Added "secrets" to the edge of the world

maybe on the second edge U should add same thing ;)

Dude, id say a bit too much Call Of Duty for you! :D Nice map although...

Ah sorry I don't mean to bother you guys again but I just had to fix the waypoints. The goddamned Red-flag carrier wouldnt go past the hill. I fixed it and now he actually caps the flag (to my knowledge..). Also, to cooz, I added secrest to the second edge of the world too. =].


version 2.1 (2 mirrors)
http://www.thefathippo.com/home/liquidis/inf_Stalingradv2.1.zip
http://www.es.elixant.com/inf_Stalingradv21.zip

Just finished playing it...Very nice, great game play and it also looks great! But whats this 'secrets to the edge of the world?'

> I added secrest to the second edge of the world too. =]

oh thank u, i'm honoured ;>

The secrets to the edge of the world: Grab a minigun and try to fly over the Volga river or over the building to the far right.

The secrets to the another (right) edge of the world: walk, jump, fly fly fly - minigun/m79 not needed ;>

A fun minigame to play if you're bored is grab a buddy or two and fly to the left edge of the world (with the help of a minigun, of course). Be sure to set powerups (excluding Flame God) to a full 5. While you're there, grab the powerups available and try to knock eachother off the edge any means necessary. It's really fun and can cause friends to hate you. Ha. Ha.

Looks cool, but it wont download [:(]

Edit: The Red Square is in Moscow, not Stalingrad.

I think there's also a "square" in Stalingrad that's known as the Red Square? I was trying to look up some information and indeed you are correct about Moscow. However, I also found some sources that state that there was a Red Square in Stalingrad during that time period.

As for the statue in my map, it's V.I. Lenin but I believe the intended statue was of Felix Dzerzhinsky. The statue of Dzerzhinsky is in Moscow. Was there a central square of some sort with a statue in Stalingrad?

Was it in Stalingrad before and then changed to Moscow? Do both coexist? Did the one in Stalingrad even exist?

-------------------

I have found that there indeed was a Red Square-type thing in Stalingrad during the time of World War II. However, I do believe that it's referred to as The Square of Fallen Heroes. So yes. My map is historically correct. I can rest now after 3 hours of looking.


Anyway, heres a working link for version 2.1. Thanks to Kahuna.

And here's the best damned song to listen to while playing my map.

"Original map scenery cannot be modified. Please reinstall the game"

What do I do if it says that?

It has been brought to my attention that many of you have had the "Original Scenery cannot be modified" error. The only thing I can offer you is to download my entire Scenery-gfx folder and replace any other scenery. This has worked for several people.

However, that is not the case with everyone. Other than that, I have no idea what the problem is.

If you know the problem and can possibly help, feel free to post the answer(s) here. Thanks.

Here's the download link to the Scenery-gfx folder replacement. I suggest you back up your current gfx folder first.
http://www.thefathippo.com/home/liquidis/Scenery-gfx.zip

Good map! Just clean it up a little.

Ok, i know that im a noob and everything blablabla. But how do you install the map?

I like da scenery, and da vehicles.. too bad they dont work.. but its wikid..

The download link for the scenery gfx doesn't seem to work. It says file not found.

It's my host, fathippo. Try again some other time, it's really being crap.

To 2dope, just unzip everything into your Soldat folder. Replace anything if it asks ;].

This map it's just so awesome (i was owning Llamamaster and snake 2v1) [:D]

FOR TEH MOON!

Good stuff. You're right, online the map is very enjoyable. Mebbe a little cheap, with the hiding behind buildings and everything, but a definate success. Thanks for such a good map.

Hi liquidis ;)
Nice map, looks very fwappable from the screenies.

Well, to follow in Emo's shoes, I'm bumping the thread up. But not without uselessness, of course *cough*.

The times for my server will now be:

Weekdays
7:00 am - 4:00 pm (maybe even 5:00 pm)

Weekends
Random

This is GMT - 8 (Los Angeles)

Have fun. Hope to see more people there. Well, not really, since I'm hosting it while at school.

hey the first link doesn't work, and if i cppy and paste it it doesn't works too
the second link, its ok but the map doesn't work i put all the archives in the rigth possition
i tried to download the scenary fix,the link doesn't works.i think so that the web thefathippo its no ok.
what can i do???

i read that a guy have the same problem,and the link of the scenery fix doesn't work.but some boy respond said to him that he had to try time later.but the link is still in bad conditions so i can download the fix

I have yet to find a new webhost, so theres no downloading right now. When I upload it, I'll be sure to post here.

oh thanks. but in your map you forgot the key of stalingrad, the snipers, you have to do some buildings with poligons and cratebox to hide in.
anyway your map is cool.

Omg, theres plenty of sniper points on my maps. It's camping heaven, what with the 2nd stories and the building sceneries.

I like the custom graphics dude! Although (I'm not trying to be too critical here) the tank looks a little streched.

looking good. can you pop up a zoomed out overview of the map ?

hey liquid if somthing happens to kahunas hosting, can u also add this? http://melankolia.sytes.net/moo/store/inf_stalingradv21.zip

Hey i thought you quit man

He didn't.

I quit playing, I still bum around when I'm bored.

I didn't like the map soooo much! But the idea, costum scenery and stuff like that make the map worthy of dl!

BTW: LIQUID'S FINNISH THE GODDAMN COMIC!!!!!

thank you

-edit- nvm, http://www.es.elixant.com/inf_Stalingradv21.zip still works. now we need a working scenery file link, and a working link for the mp3.

I could host it if someone would send it to me.

Working link. Now the official download.

Official download. I know this map is old but it's my best one. I think. I hope.









Any inf servers wish to play my map? I haven't played it with people in a long time.






Woot!

Woot!

Bumper b1tch.

I hate when a mapper bumps his map topic without a good reason.

That's a lie. We all know it's just me you hate, not the bumpage.

I agree with Aquarius, but as the map is good but changed its host, it might interest some newer members. Otherwise I wouldve locked it now, but in this case Ill give some days for newer ones to comment on that, before I put the lock on this.

Why lock it? It's a map and I'm sure it's nice to hear comments about it no matter how late they are.

I like This Maps...

Still depends on the quality of the map. If its a good map, ots ok, but Im not really a fan of digging out below average maps just to get the post count increasing by commenting on old, below-average maps, like it happened here:

http://archive.forums.soldat.pl/topic.php?topic_id=13634


inf_Stalingrad certainly has quality, so its ok here.

I wanna play it online! I played it a couple of times and it DOES feel special!

Maybe we should add it onto the U13 Custom server, when it finally go up.

it's infiltration map

No sith Sherlock! Does that matter? It's a good map! It may not be so good looking but the gameplay PWNS!

It does matter because U13 is set as CTF.

You can still play it as a ctf 0.o

But the map wasn't ment to be ctf and the flags are swapped if I remember correctly.

This is true. And thanks for keeping this open, 'cause I too would like to play this online should the chance arise. An interesting take on the inf. Danke LXS.

OH POO! I wanna play this map online with 20 players and noe bots! YAY
