Need Opinions Of My Idea

Post by Lt. Striker »

I am making a map right now of Hagendeau,France. They made a thing on the Band Of Brothers HBO Series that included Hagendeau. I want to know if you think its a good idea of making a map about it. Its not going to be very accurate but kinda similar. When I finish this map I was wondering how many of you would try/test it to help me. I am not an EXCELLENT mapper so keep this in mind.Thanks

Hagenau is in Alsace, in France, not Belgium.

Is it a town map or a city map? (I'm not good with the Atlas :( )

Its actuall called Hageunau, and yep its in france, its a village but also was part of the Maginot Line :)

Fortified Sector of Haguenau

Gros Ouvrage du Hochwald - This is the largest fortification in the Maginot Line, with 14 blocs, 3 entrances, 9 counterscarp casemates protecting the anti-tank ditch (only Hackenberg has a tank ditch), and 8 km of underground galleries. It is the only ouvrage with two separate underground caserne areas, one on each side of the mountain. Unfortunately, it is still used by the French Air Force. It was modified in the 1950s and served as a radar installation and still does. It is possible to visit inside but the military still work inside and all of the security systems - cameras, alarms, etc., are working and monitored. You must be escorted. There is a museum in the M1 area.

So I guess your map should be either a village, hills and valleys or bunkers. Or a mixture of all of them :)
Philip II of Macedon sent a message to Sparta:
"If I win this war, you will be slaves forever."
The Spartan ephors sent back a one word reply: "If".

Well it is a city kind of map. I am not an excellent mapper but I think its an ok map. I have been having some problems with it so I gotta get this fixed before releasing a test version. One of my problems is something with the .min file. My map i compile it then i play it. I try to get back on and play it again but it just goes to the main screen(you know like when you try to get on a map that u dont have). IT IS SOMETHING WITH THE .MIN FILE! I dont know so if any of you have any ideas or know whats the problem PLEASE let me know! THANKS!

Delete the .MIN file and then try if it works.
