Company of Heroes Mappack Version 3
« on: November 05, 2010, 09:01:25 PM »
Hey folks,
i dont know if it is allowed to advertise for my mappack, but ok.. :)

We produced a new, great mappack for CoH!
Features:
- 305 Maps
- included all minimap pictures so you can see the map first before you host it :)
- fixed maps with bugs
- installer, which choose the right installation-directory for you
- uninstaller, if you dont like the mappack, you can erase it easily

You find the link for the download on the first page of that thread.
Sorry for my bad english.. :)

Is it compatible with EF.
Does it have a valid auto installer for EF, 'cause I have a feeling, no one is going to be happy enlisting those 305 maps in the proper module file manually.

I think 95% are fully compatible with EF, only a few Maps have the bug, that the russians cant build there controll point building, because the area is to small.
The installer installs it automaticly in the right COH Map directory, so no work for you, the user.
The uninstaller removes automaticly every single map of this mappack, too.
Have fun!

AFAIK in order to play a map with EF implemented you need it to be enlisted in eastern_front.module in [data:common:01] part.
So, I was asking, does the installer enlist maps there.
Anyway, have you, or anyone else tested the compatibility of EF and your map installer, EF and your maps (are they *.sga format)?

You only need to place those maps on My Games\Company of Heroes\...(I don't remember the path entirely) and will work for every mod you might have installed.

But what he says is that some maps aren't optimized for EF.

I downloaded, maps are great btw.

A few maps look like crap though, like a 5 year old did it.
The Russians think there sooo tough, wait till the Ostheer comes...

Hehe, we know this problem. The map-editor didnt make a nice job, in future this maps will be recompiled or deleted cause they suck.
Im sorry, but we had not the time to test all the maps before the release, but we will patch this mappack in future, so be prepared also for new better maps! :)

I could help improve some of these maps, if you wanted.
