Map Description

This map is my first map ever, based on the actual layout of the French city of Dijon, preserved unscathed through WWII. It's a CTF map ideally designed for 16-20 people.

The buttresses on the church require more detail, in my opinion. I'd make them flared to the base of the church, and some better textureage. I think some of the buildings have continuity errors, also. Otherwise, looks pretty pimpin. I need to purchase DoD:S, it's on my list.

It's funny because it's rather unusual for maps to follow a real world layout exactly. Dijon must be ideal for this!

I never even played TFC (I know I'm missing out) so I can confirm it's not a remake of anything ;)

I remember this as one of the first custom maps to use HDR. Very nice looking (all I can say because I do not own DOD:S).

I could have sworn I saw this layout before in a TFC map called "wrath" (a very good TFC map that is...) I thought this is a remake first then I read the part about the historical layout. Just something I noticed.
