No sh** sherlock. Who's asking? I never asked what it was, I said how come there a new vehicles and buildings and stuff when it's not a mod. Are they stuff EA left out of BF2 but are available in the editor?

P.S. Who on EARTH would want to play any BF game SINGLE player???

Hey lets watch the attitude a lil bit now... :rolleyes:

You did ask what it was..."Is it a mod/map or something?" It is not a mod. It is a map pack. A collection of maps.

BTW, lots of people play single player BF2. Don't be ignorant.

[kaheiyeh]

Downloading... But how come there are new vehicles and buildings in those maps? Is it a mod/map or something? Eh?

No, they aren't new vehicles and buildings, all he did was some clever use of the terrain and objects to piece together such a building, if you look closely, you'll be able to make out the individual objects.

Anyway, nice maps! Downloading right now!

[imported_Mateus]

Then where did the oil rig come from and everything? No one has yet explained this clearly, it must be a mod

[Forest]

Mateus- He made it using objects that are found in Bf2. It's not a mod.

[Iconix]

someone who has played this map pack please do a little review and tell me if it is worth the download. Also place ip's in here that are playing this map pack please thanks

[Desertfox]

The oilrig is made up of a bunch of different BF2 objects.

[Supertech]

It's made up of lots of different BF2 objects. The chimmney, etc.

EDIT: Scary, DesertFox said almost the same thing I did and I didn't read his post.

[Cold Fussion]

Then where did the oil rig come from and everything? No one has yet explained this clearly, it must be a mod

Because some of the maps has its own objects server and objects silent. Ffs you are dumb.:rolleyes:

[[SCOT]PhatHemmer]

this looks pretty tasty! thnx spfreak

Cool down will you?

I admit it... I play BF2 in singleplayer, when I fall on smallband or when I just want to have a ratio of 100 kills / 0 deats :p

[Karl]

Mateus + Ban Stick = :D

Nice map pack, downloading now :)

[Venomous]

wow those look awesome id download it but im afraid barely any 1 is playing on servers with the maps

[kysterama]

Thanks SPfreak, your maps have always been a favourite of mine. Definitely looking forward to playing these and kudos to shanejohn and mr burns for putting in all the navmesh work. Its not an easy job and coop with mates is the only reason I play this game anymore, so thanks guys!

[GMEM]

I played them all and the guys who made this really rules!!
too bad the islands and the oil platform are not SP, but I guess those bots are to dumb for that! really REALLY nice job

[coolbho3000]

Anyone know a good server hosting these maps?

Great infantry only combat, and Arena is sooooo cool if you play in the middle. :D

[Greasy_Mullet]

Really creative use of statics I must say. Totally impressed.

[Snoop]

Hi guys. Can someone please point me in the right direction regarding what I do once I download these maps? I assume they go into a BF2 folder, but where do I access them from?

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers.

[kysterama]

Comes with an installer which installs all the maps to mods/bf2/levels

6 of them are SP and can be played via the SP menu
All 12 can be started in the MP screen as a local server.

[StealthClobber]

Awesome!!! I love the snow maps! I sent this pack to Viper (president of FFTF tournament) and he forwarded it to Ed (Tournament Chairman) and he's reviewing the pack, so you guys should see this pack possibly being used in the tournament. So if you wanna play these maps with a lot of other people, join the tournament.

www.fightforthefuture.us

(P.S. I'm not trying to recruit, if it sounds like it. :rolleyes: )

REVIEW: I like the serious maps. The Cult one is infantry only, and the snow is THE ****.:evil:

Tank Master just looks like THE ****:evil: from the screenshots! 5-6 tanks on each side? Snow? I smell a Kursk ripoff...;)

The one with the little puddles of river is awesome too! Infantry once again, and the grass, boulder clusters, and trees provide lots of cover.

The Oil Platform I don't entirely like. I like the fact you used a bunch of crap from BF2 to make it, but since the MEC immediately gets control of it on 32/64 versions, everyone will spawn AT and rape the incoming boats and apc's (if there are any).

Street:
:rock:

Wushan:

Looks very cool, especially the lighting in the picture of the temple. The city area VERY CLOSELY reminds me of Hue 1968 from BF:V. And I like that.:D

Overall I rate this pack a 9/10.

[Garabaldi]

One word: Awesome.

Now, somebody post some server IP's!

[O2zi3]

nice d/ling now

[Garabaldi]

The air only map is awesome - I don't fly often, but I can see how that map would be a blast.

It pits the USMC against the PLA. The USMC spawns on a carrier with a ton of fighter jets and bombers. The same goes for the PLA but they spawn on an island. There is very little land, and it takes place over the sea. There are even tunnels at water level to fly through if you get really cocky!

Seriously - somebody set up a server with this map pack on it!

(And DON'T only play Street.. for the love of god!)

I put the entire pack on our unranked here. Normally it runs one of the TotalBF2 map packs.

[Dr.D]

*Sigh* If only people would play these

[Dandred]

Just played the single plaer maps they are really good, I had problem on one map where the brightness kept going from normal to really dark? But I think that might of been the map design?

How can I play the maps that are not on single player with bots???

I started a local server but I was the only player on there, I know I need to get people to join but how do I play with just bots or with one or two frinds and the rest of the players bots???

[imported_AbblePC]

Awesome map pack.. nice layouts of the statics.. EA should do this good of job making thier maps... cough KARKAND..

Anyway.. I love the lighting and the sound effects too... just had a ball playing them in SP.. only I was playing them with BF2 1.4 beta.. one SP map kept crashing, the one with the railroad and sound effects.. it would CTD after only a minute inside the map with no flags capped it that helps any.

The street map seems so realistic with the chopppers overhead.. lol I looked up when I first heard them it sounded so real.. a Sound Blaster FX helps alot too ;)

The one warehouse map traing something or other.. awesome feeling when fighting against bots in that one and lots of tiny areas to hide.

I almost hate to play them MP for fear it will ruin the maps once the smacktards start thier nade spamming tactics in some of the close quarter maps.. other than that Im kind of looking forward to playing them with people that are intrested in new map layouts and a very impressive setup with atmosphere to boot... GREAT JOB!!

BTW,, Im one of those put down any Infantry only style maps.. but you put the playability into these maps that makes it fun.. BF2 should remain vehicle vs infantry.. but with these maps its a hoot playing infantry even.

PS like I said, I hadnt played them MP yet so I cant judge the maps with vehicle battle too.. but again the infantry only style ones even make me happy.:p

[Snoop]

.. only I was playing them with BF2 1.4 beta.. one SP map kept crashing, the one with the railroad and sound effects.. it would CTD after only a minute inside the map with no flags capped it that helps any.

I'm playing the maps with BF2 1.3 and got the same CTD problem as you on the same map.

Apart from that, the maps are FRIGGIN AWESOME! :D

[imported_goya]

great maps. why don't dice/ea fire the mappers that they have and hire some of these guys / gals

[teetsaar123]

Please test the SP maps first then release second cuz the SP maps have crash problems!

[FFOLKES]

Please test the SP maps first then release second cuz the SP maps have crash problems!

The maps are fine. It crashes mainly due to the 1.3/1.4beta patch.

Sometimes you need to bump up your texture graphic settings in order to play custom maps.

[Sike]

once their downloaded how do u install them

[Lavadisk]

Cool down will you?

I admit it... I play BF2 in singleplayer, when I fall on smallband or when I just want to have a ratio of 100 kills / 0 deats :p

that and the good preformance in SP makes it fun.

[Sike]

i cant even open the file.

[Snuffy The Evil]

i cant even open the file.

Ditto...My computer wants to open it with Realplayer. I can choose other programs, but I don't know which one I have to use...

[imported_goya]

so far i only got a chance to play the OIL PLATFORM map, but it was real good. like dc oil platform map, but better. very talented map maker. pleasure playing. can't wait to play it again and play some of the other maps.

[Snuffy The Evil]

Anyone who's got it installed succesfully, what program did you use to install it? My computer has Realplayer as the main program to open it with, so it doesn't work...what program do I need?

[Granthos]

winrar prolly, that is what i use, one done put it in the right folder through the install and you shoudl be just fine

[Sike]

i have installed it sucsessfully but i can only play a few maps on single player

[Granthos]

IF ANYONE WANTS TO PLAY THIS MAP PACK

you can on FCWs mod server

70.86.171.42.16567

come have some fun :D

[StealthClobber]

I'm surprised that the whole world doesen't have WinRAR. Everybody on this forum should. www.rarlabs.com

[Snoop]

i cant even open the file.

Extract with WinRar. Double click the *.exe file. Install into default folder.

The maps are fine. It crashes mainly due to the 1.3/1.4beta patch.

Sometimes you need to bump up your texture graphic settings in order to play custom maps.

I have everything set to high and SP maps are still crashing. It's gotta be related to 1.3/1.4, which is disheartening as 1.4 was supposed to fix the CTD problems.

[coolbho3000]

Wow wow wow... Let's try to compile a list of servers running these maps, I'm going to add them all to my favorites. Looks like I'm going to be playing this more than normal BF2... :D

[-7-Slappy]

IF ANYONE WANTS TO PLAY THIS MAP PACK

you can on FCWs mod server

70.86.171.42.16567

come have some fun :D
Connected & that server is running USI, which crashes to my desktop. :confused:

[QUINT]

....ok, how exactly do I get these maps, and the servers playing them to show up in the MP screen on BF2?
What specific Filters do I have to have clicked?



~Q~ :evil:

[coolbho3000]

If you want to play, just search for the specific map names. For example, type in "course" in the map name box to find servers playing Course of the River. Keep doing this until you find a populated server.

[trog]

Hey,

Aussie mirror for the map pack:

-- trog

[John Edmo]

Fussy buggers. Just download the map pack and enjoy. DON'T sling crap at the poor guy who has spent a lot of time making them. Go and do something for yourself if you think you can then bring it here to brag about if it is worth it.
I'm downloading now. These efforts look more than worth it.
Thanks. I feel better now.

Thanks for the mirror Trog.

[SpecialAgent111]

How do I get the general unlocks to work in this ?

[geddeth]

Can it be that this pack does not work with a dedicated non-retail server and offline accounts? My client CTD's when joining the server.

[corporate]

How do I get the general unlocks to work in this ?

I think you might have to wait for 1.4

1.3 took unlocks away from unranked servers, but they say it will be back in 1.4.

[coolbho3000]

There was a 1.3 server that gave unlocks for this, I'm sure. One guy said it was a "server option."

[Dandred]

There was a 1.3 server that gave unlocks for this, I'm sure. One guy said it was a "server option."

I was just playing on a server tonight with all unlocks!!!!!!!!

These maps really are a breath of freash air :D :D

[[BF2C]3|1up_dave]

Unranked (I believe) server up, rotating all maps. Do a map vote to change.
btw, we love the maps so far. Keep up the good work!

Some fantastic maps and a load of fun, faves so far are the heli battle map over the islands but also loved the Oil Rig map alot :D


Join the server people! :cool:

[geddeth]

I'm still experiencing CTD's with all maps when joining with my LAN setup:

Server:
Windows XP SP2
Dedicated server 1.3 (downloaded)

Clients:
Windows 2000
Offline BF2 accounts

There is no internet access (or actually, a very restrictive firewall) from the server and clients.

As I understand it, not all maps are 64-multiplayer enabled, so I've tested with max 16 players on the server to no avail. Didn't even bother trying out coop.

I'm guessing spfreak is getting hammered with support requests, so that's why I'm asking here. But my experience is that hardly anyone plays on LAN with offline accounts.

Still, any input guys?

[porch]

We will be hosting a community event at FraggedNation.com featuring this mappack. Its main purpose is to playtest these maps for possible use in our ladders/tourneys. Anyone and everyone is welcome to attend. You may sign up for this event @ http://www.fraggednation.com/events.php?action=showEvent&evID=9

Any Advice onhow to run these maps on a Server running Cortex? When I upload them to the server Cortex tells me that the Zip files dont contain maps for this Engine.. I thought these were just Vanilla BF2 Mods....

[ZygomatiK]

Hi!
This map pack is really the best one ever on BF2...we decided to run those maps 24/24h on our server...and it is quite full every nights..
The server is in Central Europe...in Belgium exactly...i say that for the ping lovers...:laugh:
We also have another mirror wich is really fast for european people..you just have to login quickly before(without mailing)...and start download HERE (http://www.toxic-crew.org/index.php?file=Download&op=description&dl_id=50)

The server adress is:80.248.210.189:28299
