BF2S Forums Here we are, probs as close to a PLA urban map we're gonna get :)

Now another extra to it, seeing as this map will be used in the movies ending credits as well as for fun, I decided that it would be nive to have some wee defining factors.
To get to the point, the USMC team is set up like so. Specops, Sniper, Assault, Support, EU Specops, Medic, AT.

PLA is now, Specops, Sniper, Assault, Support, MEC Specops, Medic, AT.

Marry me.

THIS IS THE SHIT! i wanna play!

We GOTTA get a time and date set for a round on this map!! BF2s Community

Also, is there a way to actually create buildings?? Can you use a building from say, Jalalabad, but color it so it looks Chinese and add a Chinese roof to it or something??

Not sure how to do that, though technically yeah i think you could , you can reskin a building to have chinese features etc.

Looking good. Got one more oral exam to go Friday and then I have the week off so I'm available for try-outs

lol depends whether I has the skillz to make a snow based map , (invades skill box)

Based on what you've showed us so far; I have my money on your skillzs If you can pull it off, do it. It would be so fun to play a winter map after a long time (R6 - Rogue Spear long time)

I think that all I'd be able to do for winter, is color the ground like white, or give it a white hue to replicate snow, unfortunately theres no option for snowy buildings/trees or snowfall . Although i can creat thick fog which can be made to appear through the map, thick at long range, thinner close up. But the entire map would be foggy, a woodland map could be good in these conditions .

Hmm... Yeah a valley type with a white ground and plenty of trees. Is night map an option you can choose when making these maps? Why o why can't dice help out by giving options to play around with everything when editing. Different weapons, outfits and so on. Would be kikass and the game would get a longer life like Operation Flashpoint did (a huge thank you goes out to the FDF guys).

Do you have a server up running this?? Also, what do I download to start making my own maps? I'd like to know! I got pretty good at making maps for C&C Generals with World Builder.

simply extract to your bf2/levels folder and make sure the folder name is exactly Village_Assault, then try in MP local, map sizes play no part at the minute, so you can jsut try on 16 size . Hope it works for you.

I'm gonna try this now, if I have a problem I'll come back and complain to you!

Does this go into: c:\program files\ea games\battlefied 2\mods\bf2\levels ?

It does my lad

Ya I downloaded the copy on a different page and I noticed the mini map was all transparent grey with just the flag points on it. I notice in the above screenshots the mini map looks fixed!! So, I'll download your latest copy.

By the way, do you have options on what sky to use?? I think the sky from Great Wall would be AWESOME! Would fit the Chinese theme on your map very well. Also, a lot of the tall grass you have on the map is very very dark, almost black. Which seems kinda odd when its placed in some places like under trees, and along concrete.

Other then that I have no complaints!!
