DoD Mapping Files/INFO

[[AOS] Somerlot]

I dont happen to see a post about this. I make DoD maps but almost 90% of all the resources have been pulled down. I have scavanged my old HDDs for files to make maps but Im missing a lot different things. I have the ability to make maps now, but im missing a lot of extra models, prefabs, and textures. I will be creating a word document with as much information as I can download and put into it so even if sites go down we still have the information. Any contributions would be helpful to this project!

I have lots of maps mostly from what we run on this server.

Im working on a map right now. I will post a sketch of how it will kind of look like. The Valve mapping site is no longer active so its pretty much like your Bank going out of business lol.

secretly I've always wanted to map but lack the patience and time

I have finally put together a document to get you started with mapping on Day of Defeat. Click http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dftftp48_1gj9r96hb to get started.

Ive almost got this map done enough to maybe have some of you guys test it for me. Ill give some pictures later this week.

here is a very crude and simple version as of right now. It is basically a medium density wooded map with objects that your normally dont see in a normal DoD map.

Here is a link to some really good information from the Steam Forums

Here is what it use to look like back about 2 or so years when I originally had made it.

It's looking pretty good, i may have to come in game and check it out when its finally put on the server

Does DL'ing the halflife.wad file for the textures change anything? I've looked everywhere for it but I can't find it.

There are those huge GCF files in your steam directory. If you were to download the GCF viewer and then open the Day of Defeat GCF file. You can see all the .wad files which house the textures. I use the halflife.wad because it has some essentials in it.

Lost most of my mapping stuff so i ended up starting over and I think maybe looks better. I will be taking sreenshots and posting them up. Been out for some time =) In July I got into a wreck on the highway with a BudLight Semi lol.

I have created a project page up on Google.I have uploaded a screenshot of the central area of the map too.

Uploaded some more screenshots. Will be working on the map and hooking my server up as a test server with a pass, if I can get it working. Added a little chat room on the site as well.
