Though it doesn't always go my way, sometimes the other player is somewhat alerted by the pile of shells and fuel drums under a bush in the middle of the asphalt road.

I think we should organize GSM matches here, set times when a game is set up and so on for other mods too. Because it's God-damn hard to get players to mods sometimes

Been messing about in the mission editor, Jebus it's fun. Although how do you get enemy soldiers to climb into vehicles? I can't select them, although I do remember the first time I used the editior I was able to get some enemy germans to use a artillery gun. Oh and how do you set off a nuke? :v:

Make sure you have pressed F1 first so that you are in game mode.

Looks cool...

The nuke's shockwaves are pretty cool. Oh, also what is the trick to rotating trencheis?

I'm almost done with my African City map but I got bored and set up a mission like a normal day in occupied North Africa. Then I nuked it. [img]http://www.cubeupload.com/files/53af4fpoorafricans.png[/img] So much death. So much screaming and fire and burnt corpses. :ohdear: :fireman: :smithicide:

Iran!!!

That tractor's engine got set on fire. :frog:

Anyone have some good mod suggestions? I've been looking but I haven't found much.

I'm going to start mapping for the first time in my life. Well not actually, I used to make maps for TibSun and RA2. But those were square-by-square maps, and this is full 3D. Any tips, FP MoW mapping gods :v:

This might turn out ok in the end. [img]http://img694.imageshack.us/img694/9563/101020141600.jpg[/img]

It's [noparse][img][/img][/noparse]

Angua I love the look of your map.

Is MoW: Red Tide worth it?

Have you played the original Men of War campaign? If you liked it, yes get it. If not, you're probably not going to like it anymore than the original.

In the editor, is there any form of concrete bunker object/building? I can't seem to find one. Edit: Never mind.

My map so far. Progress is slow but steady.

How do you get planes to actually take off, all mine do is drive around on the ground.

Press space [editline]21st October 2010[/editline] Also rockets don't hit where you aim FYI

Ze Germans are near ze boiler house.

Ugh I'm pissed. I need some help with DCG. I spent fucking ages beating a battle and now I just sit there. Basically DCG isn't recognizing that I have saved so it sits at the main menu (of the campaign executable) without doing anything. I've set it to find my save directory, I've done everything right I think. Any ideas?
