hello i just recently picked up COD2 mapping again.

im not a total n00b at making maps but i always have trouble thinking of ideas for maps, ect. so can u guys give me a few ideas of what u guys would like to see in a map, so i can get started making a new map.

well just give me examples like this below.

map with underground tunnels, secret areas ,ect

(not bad ideas :P LOL)

thanks

how about

-kursk
-kharkov
-selvestapool
-norway
-greece
-crete
-italy

surely some of these have some potential?

Aboard a German submarine that was ambushed by Allies. You could have water on the outside of the ship to give the feeling it's underwater.

Have water dripping through pipes. Flickering lights. Steam. Lots of hidden places and pathways.

Maybe even some simple scripted stuff like in the main control room there's a button to press to rise the ship above sea level (make the water brushes go down). Then the players can take the fight on top of the submarine with there being an eagles nest and whatnot.

Man... this would be a fun map, surprised there hasn't been one like it so far.

And also let the control room button be pressed again to go back under water, that way people on top drown when the sub goes back down under water.


ORRRRR... have two subs... one Allies and one Axis... same ideas as mentioned above... but you can use missiles to attack the other ship... so the ships have a set amount of life. This will be something like Titan mode in BF2142.

Ships can rise up but when they are, they can't get hit by missiles nor fire them. But they can use little boats to row across to the enemy's submarine... where they can plant a bomb inside of it if they make it to the control room alive.

thanks for the replies!

How about some pacific maps. The european maps have been done to death.

Yeah how about a map based in Guadal Canal battles.
You can find plenty of info with google using these islands as your search criteria.
Tanambogo, Gavutu and Gaomi Islands, near Tulagi

I have roughed out the Tanambogo, Gavutu Islands in UO but I am limited with textures and models, Cod2 has what you need for this style of map.

ooo i like the island idea any ideas on this idea like beach stormed by allies ect.?

i was fooling around and put this together in bout 30 or so mins.
