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,

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.

December 15, 2003, 4:38 am
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.

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

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. =].

liquidis x snake
December 19, 2003, 1:22 am
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.

liquidis x snake
December 20, 2003, 7:51 pm
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.

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

What do I do if it says that?

liquidis x snake
December 21, 2003, 8:14 pm
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.
