The download link above is back up thanks to the wonderful broadband connection at my Uni (and thanks to about all of my internet quota). The problem with textures in the latest version of DOD is fixed, so download away!
Finally got it finished. Its taken a while, what with uni, work and my budding graphic design business, but its done. And if i do say so, quite a beauty. The r_speeds are high but well within the capabilities of any with a half decent PC. I'd only recommend a LAN though, might struggle a bit over the web.
It's a bit of a showcase map for me, meaning to be playable, which it is, but also as realistic as HL will allow, until HL2 that is. its pretty faithful to the real location, with some inclusions and exclusions for various reasons.
Anyway it a pretty fun and at times frantic map, I hope you enjoy it. Agent Smith
Well finally I have finished dod_pegasus_bridge. Its been a long slog, tying to fit in mapping time around work and uni, but I have done it.
I should have some final screenshots up in the next couple of days and hopefully a download after that. It features custom textures by me (a lot however from various wads not by me, and a couple of pilfered textures from MOH: Allied Assault).
Now the question everyone has been wanting an answer for, r_speeds. Well I'm sure there'll be lots of happy chappies because the r_speeds are higher than my promised 1500 w_poly. However, if you'll notice the 99% complete, I'm in the process of tweaking and correcting some areas where I got a bit carried away, so hopefully it will be lowered to a figure closer to the promised. But please, I know about r_speeds and limits, so don't tell me they're too high, I ALREADY KNOW!
This is my latest dod map, and has been in the works for the last 6 months. As the name would suggest it is based around the Battle of Pegasus Bridge, the capture of Pegasus bridge over the Caen Canal on D-Day by British troops.
The map is based entirely around the bridge and is set at night, with three capture points as well as some piat objectives for the Brits.
I have been making this map to look as real as possible, and is almost an exact replica of the actual Pegasus Bridge and surrounding area. As such you can expect higher than average r_speeds, but I have limited r_speeds to 1500 w_poly, which everybody should still be able to run, while allowing me some leeway in detail.
Anyway it is looking pretty good so far, and hopefully I will have some screenshots up soon.
