Re: [RELEASE] El Alamein

Nice work, but theres some errors.
I think you forgot the ground hemi. The tanks are glowing bright/cast unnatural light.
And the airplanes crash just outside the map boundraries many places instead of pilot being warned or punished to death in time.
The hights in desert are a bit too steep for the original map if your going for true likeness.

I only took a quick look, but are there not a lot of defence against jets?

Re: [RELEASE] El Alamein

I installed it in the mods/bf2/levels directory start the game and when the map is done loading the game stops and my desktop arrives!!

Any help would be appreciated!

Re: [RELEASE] El Alamein

Custom maps are stupid. Beause of u people!
U want custom maps but nobody plays them. All servers are empty.
Also the vehicles are all too light. make the darker.

Re: [RELEASE] El Alamein

Some buildings arent set right to ground, some of the village near de US base are flying but you cant enter inside under them, so its not big problem. And for what i have seen, looks like nobody could make maps with a consistent surrounding terraint, in all maps i have played (custom ones) if it isn't greenish is water.

Re: [RELEASE] El Alamein

Good effort but I would've called it something other than elalamein as it is not that good of a port - and its too small sorry.

It looks like you started it out good but then rushed it.

The ground shows through one of the airstrips too, at least when i was driving on it. And your vehicles glow - no combat zone?

I second that.

Re: [RELEASE] El Alamein

well i like your map, its good to see other peoples work, ive seen it on a few servas, and theres some very good areas to stunt in, the only thing i dont like is the fog, reason is that i just hate fog, but apart from that its aright, keep working on more maps :) :) :) :) :)

El Alamein's Character now Ruined!

rant/
To those who are about to DL the new El Alamein map don't bother unless
you plan on flying all day long. Gone are the vast desert ground armor
battles, the determined ground attack of bases. All for the flyboys who
constantly circle the map looking for their little target designators
on the ground for the easy nooby kills.
Try and get into a tank, or an APC, or even a buggy - - and drive
around; see how long it takes to asplode.
Granted the German map designer (attempted) to add a few fiery
wreckage(s) that could throw-off target designators, but it still
sucks.
To the "pilot ace haxX00rs" I ask this: Do you think you're cool? Can
it actually be fun doing circles all day? THis esp. goes out to the
[EES] punks who never set foot on terr firma once that match.
I know, I know... "Get into a plane and pwn them in the air"...
Personally, I don't base my life of flying aircraft in BF2. I base it
on ground combat.
If you're like me, don't bother with El Alamein. The BF2 engine
disqualifies armor battles on that map.

Re: [RELEASE] El Alamein

yea i found too much air support,
,wouldve been better concentrating on ground forces.

Still a good map though on our server atm:)

Re: [RELEASE] El Alamein

I for one love this map

the new version is even better

Burns released El Alamein XXL and it is arguably the best BF2 map out there!

It is much bigger than his original
It has lots of toys, more armor and planes than most maps

The only problem is that for some reason my server crashes unexpectedly with this map. there is no clear cut reason i can figure out for the crash. yesterday I had 30 players in it and we had some intense battles. There were 6 planes in the air at all times dogfighting. whoever ranted about too much airpower has to get on a busy server. the pilots were too busy fighting each other to do any bombing. It was just INTENSE!

too bad this community is so addicted to getting their ranks to play the new maps.

my server has all the weapons unlocked and I am going to try leaving it cycling thru the new maps and see if does not crash if i run El Al XXL every third map or so.
