Ramelle (Offensive)

[kunalht]

So I spent many days just to decide the theme and location.Let's hope I can finish it.

 This will be my first actual (and big) map in hammer editor so I dont know many things about hammer which I'll be learning as well. I've played insurgency a lot and the offensive game mode is same as PUSH game mode in insurgency.

 

Theme

The map is set in normandy in river merderet. Ramelle is a name from movie "Saving private ryan" where the last fight was based on. It is a fictional village.

Design

There'll be a river as shown in movie. Objective C will be on the river based on movie howerver all the other objectives and area are not from movie. 

 

Progress

So far I've just designed the map in paper and few things inside the editor.

 

Should I keep the name ? Would there be any copyright issued if its based on movie?

And Is there any good source/website where I can find reference of houses in normandy in WW2?

Nice idea, you can do it ! I recommend doing a heavy search on the cities around normandy since they follow almost the same architecture of that area in France.

I've searched a little and found some pics that can help you have a general idea:

this is a mod for Arma2: http://www.moddb.com/mods/invasion-19441/images

This one also follow the same name of your map, so I think it's not a problem at all. http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de/fh2_maps.php?map=30

Keep up and good luck !

Hey, that's cool! Ramelle/Merderet was my first finished map ever, for a Call of Duty 1 mod.

I added an additional railroad bridge back then because the single bridge in the center was too open and almost impossible to pass choke point.

Yeah good idea. I'm thinking to add something like walk way in river so they can pass(2nd way) and maybe will block the area inside water. Like this:

 

 

For objective A it'll be a big house or church after very big open area(ground).

There was one in the movie/set too

Here's some help of the actual movie set (if you haven't found this yourself)

It doesn't look good yet. Will change the textures and few other things in final build.

Let me know what you think.
