the tree should get an extra model when it is fallen. looks weird when all branches stay upwards.

overall i think you got a nice setting but only use like 10% of what you could do with it.

you could add some kind of subterrain parts, munition camps, light areas, wooden bunker-like things. to give you some inspiration i just played my favorit level from call of duty 3 and made some screenshots with a digital camera

screenshots are made on a Xbox360 Version. those screenshot only should give you some inspiration on what you could possibly add to the level, because right now it is a bit too "bland".

Cool, that Call of Duty 3 level looks nice ! I don't have that game. For Copse, I was shooting for a simple layout and design for fast gameplay and good fps! I created and released dod_V2_b3, obj based, looks similar to copse. It is much larger and contains buildings, treelookouts, etc and a V2 rocket camp. I'm not done with forest themed maps yet, there aren't nearly enough of them. 99% of all dods maps are villages now. It's getting old. I'll keep trying to create different layouts and new things !

Thanks for your suggestions and the pics ! I need to see CoD3 for sure now ! Is that PS2 or 3?

I concur, once I'm finished with Hachau I'm going to do a remake of forest more then likely and see how that goes

Oh and Cod 3 is PS3/Xbox 360 isn't it?

Nice maps for sure

I noticed that all of the DoD maps are in beta stage. Can we expect any final version for them, or these b2 and b3 can be considered as final ?

See no offense, and I do not want to blame you, but this is IMHO one of the issues of DoD:source mapping community...

Look at the DoDS maps available @LanManiax, most of them are in beta stage , some of them for ages, and they will probably never be released as final.

As a player who like custom maps (and who is unable to make them himself ), I find this very frustrating.

then why dont you pay the mappers? maybe you dont know that this is hard work and sometimes people loose motivation!

Nice idea... I got another one: why don't they pay me to play on their maps ?

I think some mappers are more motivated by starting a totally new work than to spend many tedious hours to fix so many little things on a map on which they spend hours and hours already

I do not want to blame the mappers, I only express the feelings I have about so promising unfinished maps.

I'm not too bothered about beta maps as long as their are no major exploits. Minor ones I can tolerate but something like being able to jump onto things which shouldn't be possible is annoying and unfair. An example of this is the arch exploit on Flash. So lame.

Very nice work, will try this asap!
