Betons addons releasethread

Hi all,

since there has been a little confusion...

i would like to inform you that from now on i will post the links to all my addons and to the latest updates of my addons and maps in this thread. So everybody who is interested can find the links on one page. Comments and suggestions are always welcome.

Betons Addons:

These addons contain all the custom made objects like plants, buildings etc. which are needed for my maps. There will be updates every now and then. The updates wil be available as full download and as cumulative patch for the ones who already have the previous version.

Some of the bunkers, there´s some more of course:

Patches:

no patch

Hürtgenwald:

My main Project atm.

Western front in Germany in November 1944, dark forests in the valleys... plateaus with little cover and some small villages. The winter came early so the upper parts are covered with snow.

At this time Americans tried to push the Germans back to the Rhine. Choosing the Hurtgen Forest was not the best decision because the US soldiers encountert Germans that had dug themsevles in deeply in the dark forests. Because of the bad weather there was nearly no airsupport possible.

Also nice with modern units as long as there are no ww2 units available.

No more Beta!

The map has reached it´s final status. This does not mean that no changes or bugfixing will be made in the future. I am always open for suggestions especially from missiondesigners because i don´t know how to make missions.

Features:

- The map covers an area of 10x10 km roughly based on realworld data if possible

- The map features the area between Hürtgen and Schmidt in November 1944 but does not claim to be 100% historically correct

- roads and bridges should be used properly by AI

- there are many dense german style forrests and also wide plains

- You will find many custom buildings, bunkers and of course trees and bushes

- Some bunkers and other stuff is already placed on the map but there ist still more than enough room to place your objects available from my addons or other addons according to your own requirements

- many of the buildings are open to give the possibility of interesting fights in the villages

- on the map you may find some trees that can be climbed on, to give places for snipers (usable also by AI)

Huertgenwald 1.11:

Addons needed: Betons addons 1.47

v1.11:

Nome Island:

At first it was only for testing. Then i made it a little bit nicer. A small map (4x4km) with with an Island in the middle. Quite suitable for Infantrycombat.

Version 1.0:

Nome Winter

Due to the small terraingrid it is a fpskiller. Caused ctd on some systems especially with viewdistance set too high.

Cause we are updating them but as I am sure you noticed yourself getting the files from crapidshare is a lot of work, please be patient. The files should be in our house today :)

It takes me all the night to DL maps and addons, the so called Rapid thing is just a ***

Now with Nome Winter 1.1 it works great, too bad i can't get the snow working with the NiM weather mod.

Thanks for the update :cool:

hey

the performance in the new version got alot better, thank u :ok:

but imho u made the island less interesting by flaten all the hills and making the valleys less deep. in the previous version the terrain was very cool to use with infantry combat, now the island got boring and has nothing special any more.

on the old version i already thought about making a mission ww1 like with fences and mg bunkers on all that small hills, artillery raining down, flares in the dark dusty skies, u r that scared grunt in that muddy whole screaming " GRENAA..." "BAMMM"... :D

now that vision is gone.. :(

but hey thats just my 2 cents and mabye just my special taste, i wonder what others think about that.

Well...

ill try to get the hills back....

Thanks Beton
