[Release] Cologne

[kaheiyeh]

========================================

I have been waiting for this map for some time now and I would rate it one of the best custom maps i have seen produced.
WD kaheiyeh! - Asda

This is a great map that I've been playing prior to release. I highly recommend it to any 2142 player. Its creative and very well done. Definatly worth the download. - Namakan

========================================

The wait is over! I'm proud to present to the Total Battlefield 2142 community my custom map, Cologne!

Cologne pits the PAC against the EU who have been trapped by the closing ice and the ever present PAC force. The EU must break out of the city if they are to survive. This map is an urban map with minimal use of vehicles (A single walker and APC at the most).

Try out Titan Mode in the dense urban areas of Cologne! Fierce gunship battles will erupt between buildings and only the best pilots can navigate the skies above Cologne!

Cologne includes:
- 16/32/64 Player Conquest
- 48 Player Titan

16 Player Singleplayer is slated to be released within 1 months time.

Known Issues:
- The minimap displays the titan as half its normal size.
- There is a tree half into a building only visible on titan mode and does not pose a gameplay issue.
- The loading screen description and flag names are not properly displayed.

I would like the thank the following people:
- [Aus] GreatKenji (Testing & Inputs)
- =ACME= tonks950 (Testing, Inputs & Titan minimap fix)
- Pro-Kilo (Testing & Inputs)
- LoN (Testing & Inputs)
- Namakan (Testing & Inputs)
- Asda (Installer & Server)


To install, simply run the executable file located within the archive.
Note: The readme tells you to just copy the installer to your Levels folder; DO NOT DO THIS. This was an error on my part.

Hey guys, just updating you so far on the map. I've been stamping out known issues with the map since it's been released and so far the following have been done for the next version which will include SP support:

- The minimap now displays the titan properly.
- Flag names are now correctly displayed.
- Both Walkers removed from 16 player Conquest. Subsequently, all AV stations have been removed as there are no more vehicles in the mode. This was implemented due to feedback from playtesting.

ooo nice im gonna put this map into my mod and play my *** of with it

I hear there's a lack of servers. I'm having it put on the Sir. Community 2142 server Kah.

Good job man.

EDIT -

Alright guys, the map is now running on The Sir. Community server. The info is available on the left side of our homepage - http://www.sircommunity.com/

Well well, I've been getting alot of feedback from some players and have further made the following changes to be included in the next release!

- The titan is now displayed correctly on the minimap.
- Flag names now appear correctly on the minimap and messages.
- Walkers are now back in 16 player but also included is a FAV for each team. These respawn after 2 minutes.
- The Station flag was moved to the Warehouses area and renamed Warehouses. This was in response to 16 player being too large; the map should now be a tad bit smaller.

Here's the revised 16 player mode:

Looks great.

If only I hadn't gotten hooked on TF2 now.... :p

Just wanted to post there here. I posted it in the news forum as well:

Ok, I'll get a server up for this, running Conquest and Titan, 48 slots. It'll be on our dedicated box located in Virginia. Most Euro players get 100 - 150 ping on our other servers, so give it a try even if you're in Europe.

There hasn't been much activity on it, so I hope some of you guys will check it out!

We'd like to possibly use this map in 2142 Tournament, if that's ok. We were formally A Soldiers War Tournament, until the founder got ill. please let me know if you have any objections because we think it's an awesome map. Check us out here: http://www.2142tournament.com

I have absolutely no objections to anyone who wants to use the map in a tournament/competition etc. Feel free to use the map for such purposes.
