dammit, missed that, umpf. Anyway, will release an updated version of the map once we get those .sga archives to work correct (atm they don`t seem to be running correctly for online play).great map henery!! only one thing.. one base has +16 M but the other has a +5.... seems a bit unfair...
UPDATE:
Released a new version (sorry), bug is now fixed.

Oh damm it .. me and my mouth your proberly going to win nowi shouldn't of said anything lol
more 2v2 maps pls :P
Well, if you want bigger maps why don't you make some yourself?
It's very hard to make a decent looking 1 vs 1.. takes a lot of time, let alone a bigger one.
I'm sure people will make some later. I'm planning on making some sort of night beach assault map over the next two weeks for entry into the 2 vs 2 category. Havn't even thought about the layout or anything yet.. got to wait for exams to finish.
well iv'e got the idea for my 1v1 map... but i need to find a historical city i can base it around, thats goes with my idea

Remember... if I don't get an e-mail AND a post in this thread, I can't count it as a submission
almost done mine guys, unfortunately i hope screen shots dont make up a big part because my computer cant handle high graphics ( and i mean lowest graphics possible )
mine's basically a 1on1 attackers vs defenders, defenders get terrain advantage, plus 2 out of the 3 victory points
attackers get the benefit of resources

Henry, I reviewed your map here....

lol Buggo nice picture :P
Thanks again from here DayGloNinja !
heres the over view, gonna get some screenshots, but like i said im on low graphics so they wont look too good
That map looks a bit hard to get balanced since one of the victory point actually are inside of one of the player bases... ugh!
well i said a while back (forgot to say it again) that its a defender attackers map,
defenders (axis) get terrain advantage + 2 of the 3 victory points, attackers as you can see get much mroe resources
and basically the victory point inside the guys base is to make it so he owns a point all the time, to basically slow down the countdown, and once he take a point across the bridge then to counter trhe count down
hey can some one try making a map for the battle of BASTOGNE?
here is a link with all the info (i would do it myself but im not good at mapping (yet)
http://www.trabel.com/bastogne/basto...orbastogne.htm
its a huge city..worth of a good 4v4 player map...or even a 3v3 player map if you shortchange the landscape.
please some one consider making this map please
also there was another great battle. it was the 82nd airborne, 101st, and british parachute regiment. it was operation MARKET GARDEN
http://www.militaryimages.net/blogs/Bombardier/friends/
here is a link of it that shows several images of the COULD be battlefield. as you can see in IMAGE 3 there this map would consist of 2 shores with 1 (indestructable bridge and 1 destructable bridge)
the one side of the bridge is marked with HEAVY cityscape. while the other side is some what sparse.
and on a smaller not. there was a battle for an airfield in panama. it was called rio hatto. a multiplayer map for taking controle of this key airfield would be quite awesome (a full fledge assault on an air field by an airborne assualt group). it may not be in the same time frame..but would make an excellent map.
here is a map of the airfield

First of all, is Relic going to fix the fact that it appears you have to run a modified shortcut of the game with the -dev suffix in order to play custom maps? Seems a bit ridiculous, to say the least. Also, do these new maps have any music or not?
actually you can put in any kind of music you want,
if i could find some i would put in some epic music
adding music doesnt seem to work atm

Is there a guide to how to put maps together? I have looked but cant find a "how to" anywhere.

ehe thanks i was about to post the same question.
ah man just 1 week to learn and make map.
hey, the map i am gonna post here soon is my 1st finished map, and my 2nd attempted
Longer deadline! :<
I'm brewing on a rather nice first map but I won't be able to make it.
Or meh, just have another contest later on!
Preview of the little progress so far

Can I get an answer from Relic on if these custom maps are going to be able to be played without the -dev prefix of a modified game shortcut? Seems rather silly to have to do this to play a custom map.
yes i would like that too, wont be able to play it online with the dev shortcut either, it doesnt allow you online with it
hmmm, my overhead map doesn't render correctly in World Builder. In the mapname_mm.tga file splines are rendered in the correct place on the terrain, but texture tiles are drawn in the wrong place. I'll be submitting the map to this comp anyway, but the minimap won't look right at all.

I feel like a complete idiot that i did not notice it before...
November 21st untill December 5th are not 3 weeks. Its 2.Originally Posted by Buggo
Please tell me the 3 weeks part is right, and the 5th of December part is wrong... ! I want to be able to finish my map, but i am halfways done at best.
From the patch notes:
A scenario pack (*.sga file) is an archive that contain all the files needed for a scenario allowing for easy map sharing. To play a new map put the scenario pack in the "$CoHInstallDir\WW2\Scenarios\" or the "My Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes\Scenarios\" folder.
Now, I've packaged a map up using Archive.exe through World Builder, but whether I put the *.sga (SGA) file under "$CoHInstallDir\WW2\Scenarios\" OR My Documents\My Games\Company of Heroes\Scenarios\" and start CoH with or without the -dev flag, I cannot see this map in the Skirmish map list.
I can only see the map in the skirmish map list if I put the *.sgb (SGB) file under "$CoHInstallDir\WW2\Scenarios\MP" and start CoH using the -dev option. But then you can't play it online...
Any help appreciated,
Thanks.
i have a map to submit, but i get an error that URLs are not allowed to be posted
any suggestions?
This was your first post in this forum!? Right?
Postings URLs in the very first post is not allowed because of spambots.

With the airborne landing repelled due
to it's parachuting into the town itself. There is
an immediate need to recapture the town and it's
strategic value. With german reinforcements
cut-off due to sabotage on the railroad, the
allies are free to directly engagethem without fear
of attacking a superior force.
P.s. i forgot about the first post not alowing links, thanks for the hint. :cheers:
I got exams coming up so I'll have to let this one slide unfortunately.
Awesome idea, just a pity you can't organise this in the holiday periods as I'm sure most people have more time to slap a quality map together during these holidays.
I'll consider entering my existing map though, and I can try to get my current project ready although thats going to be a close call.
Myself attempting to make a top notch map that is not only "good to the eye" but playable, just is not going to make this deadline.
I hope Relic will have Map Contests in the future..

Hi everyone,
Please note that we extended the deadline to Tuesday, December 12th. Sorry for the error. Now it is actually 3 weeks.
Thanks!
Yay! Shame i can't make maps... or don't have the time to try (lol). Least we'll see some better maps and completed ones, hopefully... Always looking forward to new maps to dominate.
#86
Thanks!This should make it more propable to see some good maps.
good more time to touch up
How about a prize that we dont already have (a copy of CoH?) Why not a NVidia Geforce 8800 (DX10 enabled card, CoH is DX10 isn't it?) **cough, cough**

A frontline forest defensive map creating a battle for control on the front that seems nicely balanced
and can create long fun battles. with defencive bunkers along the ridge line that can be taken to
guard down over the front line stratigic pionts with mg nests.
Also have done a little diffrent experiment with the map entery piont for player 3 and 4 coming form inside the bases.
included -dev files and sga formats
,loading screens, screenshots and mini maps.
thank you

Where do you find the MAP BUILDER when you have installed the patch?
CoH directory
Here's my contribution for the COH mapping contest. It's a 1vs1 map which should rely on use of equal amounts of armor and infantry to win the map.
Thread in the armoury (more images and info)
Download the map directly (in thread at GR.org)
Thanks,

Hi,I have put four downloaded maps into the folder D:\games\company of heroes\WW2\Data\Scenarios\MP,but they still don't work.Could someone please tell me how to properly install maps created by other users?
Put "-dev" at the end of your target field of the shortcut to CoH.exe.
unfortunately this makes it so you cannot play online with non -dev users
Great Map simmo! Thanks for sharing, I love this game but the small and medium maps are lacking. Keep it up I hope you make some more
Tried it last night and it worked flawlessly

i got a great idea... but i can't use the world map thing :'(
Do you have to have CoH installed in order to use the map builder? Reason I'm asking is because I want to put it on a jump drive and work on the maps in my spare time at work.
I seriously doubt it. I guess you can.
