| I don't mean to get off topic here but will the FHSW European Community Mappack include many of the unpublished orphan maps of regular fh and fhsw? What about Radio Smersh's vanilla project of converting vanilla to fhsw that haven't already been converted, will they be included in the mappack? I'm trying to create a game plan of what I need to do and/or download to stay in the picture. Thanks!

| eYe, you are a magician. Seriously, this looks great!
I've made screenshots: Ocean Town Screens
All the files are TGAs. The last image is a new thumbnail.dds.
Okay, if you guys think the thommy fits the balance then keep it in
Mayer, could you cut out the '- made by Xenanab -' annotation from the level's desription? The one on the loading screen is enough. Also feel free to add a ' edited by mayer' ^^

| Too bad, looks like it could have been a very nice map.

Kbely Airfield from vanilla SWW2 addon. Ziba128 started to convert it, but then gave up and decided to give it in good hands, so I dediced to pick it up. I reuploaded it here (just changed kit with MP3008 to one with MP40), since link in original thread is dead.
Btw, I want to report a bug: if you select kits with MP3008 to spawn they will crash the game with such an error: something like "invalid weapon id: -1".

| Quote RADIOSMERSH ( ) Are there any tutorials about converting map to push mode? Thanks in advance! It works by spawning in "cages" depending on which flags are taken by either team. Take a look at Alpenfestung for example and check how the object spawners "gecage" and "uscage" are set up.

Thanks for the tip! I figured that out.
Guys, I want to ask your about opinion about changing the Allies to Soviets (since Kbely is located in Czechia and it was liberated by Soviet Union) and giving Allies some air support (as they doesn't have anything against 2 Bf-110 at the beginning).

No need to keep it vanilla for reasons of nostalgia.

| yea i was quite lazy the previous month (this week i worked on fht). I should really start finishing my map and add a nice loading screen to your map too. And if we are at it release them together with several maps converted to fhsw and slightly modified
this is my suggestion for FHSW Europe Mappack #1:
Attack on Carentan Berlin Flakturm Zoo Berlin Outskirts Eagles Nest FHT Battle of El Alamein (i really like how its layout is historically accurate) FHT Operation Torch Fall Gelb Fall Rot Kbely Airfield Market Garden Monte Cassino Ocean Town Oahu (Pearl Harbor) Road To Ramelle Zielona Gora
these are maps which are quite easy to convert and don't need a lot of work.
btw what types of improvements? if you gonna change textures/static just do it, it's your map. i will add it then

| Concerning Ocean Town I will do the last things and give you an updated RFA file ^^
Your list has quite alot of cool maps. Especially Monte Cassino would be great! And I'm looking forward to your FHSW map. I know there are many maps out there which are worth converting to FHSW, but some more FHSW maps would give our beloved mod more unique features aside the massive ordnance. I still have an idea for a new Hungary map.

| Hm I've put some horses in it, but is the jet pack still in the game files? I've found it on Fritz's Wikia but I have never seen it ingame on the server.
