TG Map (Port Terror) v.01 Shiner

Port Terror Info at WIKI

Please check the above link for details on my map. I will be updating that page as changes are made. The wiki also has some screenshots which I hope to have updated after I've finished with the lightmap generator.

Please let me know your comments, be critical but kind as this is my first map making attempt since OFP.

Instructions: Well I couldn't get the built-in packager to finish without crashing so you get the "raw" files. Just extract this with win-rar or similar program to your /mod/bf2/levels/ directory.
Update: I uploaded a new minor revision @ 2:00 am CST which fixes a few of the more obvious bugs and adds a road I forgot to include.

How many players is this map designed for? So far looks good, keep it coming.

Re: TG Map (Port Terror) v.01 Shiner

48-64, but it will be hard to tell if I need to add more vehicle spawns for 64 without actually seeing people play it.
I've really erred on the side of limiting vehicles in favor of infantry combat. I've also added a ladder to almost every building on the map, so you can expect lots up/down action. I'm hoping this additional element of risk will make squads work more closely together using bounding overwatch and other RL techniques... smoke will be necessary for a few flags that are positioned in the open .

I'm struggling with the "package mod" feature as the first few attempts didn't produce a map that works. I'm hoping to have that fixed soon.

Just so you know Shiner, that as a supporting member you get FTP space here at TG. That might make a great place to host your map so anyone can download it w/o using your bandwidth. The downloads are pretty damn fast too.
