Demyansk (2) Updated! May 23 2011!
« on: August 03, 2010, 11:44:56 PM »
Early February 1942, the Soviet Toropets-Kholm Operation encircled the German 2nd Army Corps as well as part of the 10th Corps, both parts of the German 16th Army, during their winter 1941 offensive that ended the Battle of Moscow. Trapped in the pocket were the 12th, 30th, 32nd, 123rd and 290th infantry divisions, as well as the SS Totenkopf Division. During the four months of battle, the pockets were provided with over 65,000 tons of supplies, 31,000 troops and the evacuation of 36,000 wounded by air. The success of the Luftwaffe operation would later convince Hermann Göring to propose a similar solution to supply the 6th Army, trapped in Stalingrad. DUN DUN DUN...

May 4th 2011 - Hi Everybody here is the final and COMPLETE version of demyansk! I recently had the time to finish her and hope you all enjoy. Everything is done, minimaps, savescreen, loading screen, map info, etc.

May 23 2011 - Slightly updated and in working order!

It has many effects tweaks, weather transition, removed flares (done to keep map competitive and less distracting), also includes better balance, path finding and optimization.

Had a chance to play last night, the flare effects are a nice touch and the map seemed well balanced. Well done.  :)

@Snug
It's simple, the last mayor patch(v1.20) was released in July 29, 2010; this map in August 03.

@theplay
Is this the "last/current" version of your map?

yea this is the current version of the map, I meant to fix/balance the map after some critique but I was without internet for almost a month lol. Also I just recently built a new computer, so I am still getting my map files in order. As it stands, I am available now to add fixes and whatnot. Thanks everyone for downloading and replying :D

Crap, I dont know if this is the right threads, but since I downloaded this map I ask here: where have I to put the sga file?

I tried everywhere in my files, and files that are clearly indicated on internet, but I doesnt work!  ???

I want to try out this map as possible, is this map going to be included in the next patch?

Thanks a lot!!!  :D :D

Theplay, you've done an excellent job with this map!! The only thing annoying is that, with my computer, sometimes the ground of the battlefield become suddenly red, and come back to normal snow within seconds. Am I the only one to have this problem?

The RED lighting that occurs in the map is a attempt to simulate flare use during night battle. Theplay added that red lighting to add a feel of the real battle where at night the sky would be red from flares to spot enemy soldiers.

Can someone make a guide on how to download this map, I've downloaded it but when it comes to opening the file, I don't know how to.
