(Unofficial) This is a composite map based on events, places, and written & broadcasted news reports about the war on Iraq. This map contains most of the land and air vehicles featured in the DC ..35e Alpha release. Map Objectives: There are 2 permanent flag bases; The Iraqi Military Command Center, and The Coalition Staging Point Base. There are 5 Primary flag points to capture (AreaValue); An Iraqi Airfield (30), The Republican Guard Base (25), The Oil Refinery (25), Iraqi Government Building (20), and a Small Village (20) There are 2 Secondary flag points to secure; An Outpost near the airfield and a Hotel in the city. These two have zero AreaValue but it has strategic value; it brings you closer to the action. Release Notes and Issues: ------------------------ v.0.35 A (May 12, 2003) Updated for DC v.0.35 Added BDRM2-Spandrel Vehicle Spawns. Added A-10c Cluster Bomber Spawn. Ingame Map Redone. Re-balanced team inventory. Still just straight multiplayer Conquest for DC. No Single Player mode, CTF, Co-Op, TDM, S&D, RTR, or BF1942 support. ------------------------ v. 0.3 A (May 10, 2003) Added machinegun points. Added Coalition Destroyer with \"Cruise Missile\" (DC v.0.35) ObjectLightmap Shadows NOT finished. I am having trouble with 3DSMax 5 settings. ------------------------ v. 0.25 A (May 8, 2003) Added Airplane repair & ammo reload points to the runway. DC anommaly: Land vehicle still show the repair icon in the air field, although they are not being repaired. Land vehicle\'s ammo gets reloaded @ the airfield (will fix later) Added & Redistribute several Land Vehicle Spawns; APC, Mobile Artilliary, Heavy & Light Tanks. Custom MaterialMap Finished. ------------------------ v. 0.2 A (May 3, 2003) Added aestetic objects, view distance increased. (less haze/fog) Added two new flag points & several new spawn points. Fixed Loading Screen Progress Bar. ------------------------ v. 0.15 A (April 29, 2003) Retexture, Reworked Heightmap, and Burned Shadows. Less Green Ground, more sand & dirt. Added vehicle spawn; 2nd coalition blackhawk. Added Heliport @ Coalition Base. Fixed floating buildings. ------------------------ v.0.1 A (April 24, 2003) On the load screen, the progress bar fills up then refreshes numerous times while loading. I don\'t know why it does this (in my machine) but it loads just as well. I\'m having difficulty creating a MaterialMap file (I followed every Tutorial out there but the file still crashes the game), as for now I am using El Almein\'s MaterialMap. :( Map Shadows and textures need improvement and Object Lightmaps are not done. Next upgrade... For now its just straight multiplayer Conquest for DC. No Single Player mode, CTF, Co-Op, TDM, S&D, RTR, or BF1942 support. If anyone with the mapping resources, tools, time and skill would like to help further the development of this map, please contact me at nordenx@tcgweb.net. Slows or lags (momentary freeze) during flag capture or multiple vehicle spawns. Watch out for the city area\'s high FPS rate. Map balancing... Not done yet. ******************* TECHNICAL Created and Tested on BF1942 latest patch and Desert Combat v.0.35e latest as of May, 13 2003. Runs smooth on my 1.50 GHz processors with 260 MB RAM and NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 500 Some slowdown and lag during flag capture and near the city or around complex modeled vehicles. The DC team is still working on optimizing certain vehicle models. (as of May, 13, 2003) ******************* LEGAL This is a Full Custom Battlefield 1942 Map/Level for Desert Combat Mod.
