Title: WW2 Normandy Map
Post by: GCGoquingco on 07 Sep 2002, 16:51:04

Could someone please make a Normandy map including the beaches and most important of all the inland. You could use the new resistance buildings becuase they look like the ones from france.  ;)

I know Jakerod started it but quit becuase it was too hard. So please make one. It would be nice for the new WW2 units made by the WW2 team to be used there. You could make seaborne landings to airborne paradrops in that map.  ;D

Thank you  :)

umm, I think it's a few ppl working on it...I DL the terrain of Omaha and the inland...
And I don't think that was the map Jakerod was working on...
And, Invasion 1944 is making one, I guess, for their mod.

I am currently working on this for a mod...and as far as I can tell there are no 30m DEMs for that area...that are available to the public anyway ;) The best I could find were 1km...hardly useful me thinks. All in all though i can't quite see the fuss. It's not a complex bit of coastline when you look at it in detail. Easy to see why the landing was such a cock-up hehehehe.

Hmm, had to get Babelfish out for that page. Looks good, can't wait for that one! Hope it doesn't go the same way as Jakerod's though!

hello Pertti !
I saw your work (omaha beach) not realy easy to make it, no ?...
I'm also working on a Omaha Beach Map, did you saw my work ? I've try to change some building texture to add some stuff but it take time. I've done a Vierville sign, and a house with ''SUZE'' writing on (like in save private ryan...) I hope Marcel or someone else will made others WWII building like shop, destroyed houses etc....
I dont know if we are alone making these great WWII maps.
Good luck for your job, see you later on forum

Hi i think i was the first one ever to create an omaha beach. It has been finished and is almost like the real one. But I don't share this file because it's my work and I want to enjoy it. Maybe that's too bad for you guys but there will be other ones coming up soon.
