Mosul Night

[CATIA]

Hi Everyone,
I can only speak for myself and the rest of the Texas Combat Crew when I say that we really love night maps. We also love Outskirts of Mosul and definitely want to thank the DCon guys for the awesome work they put into that map. As soon as I played it, it reminded me of old school Basrah Edge, Nights, maybe even a little Berlin. It just had that really awesome urban brawl vibe. So, thinking it might make a really good night map (and really missing Basrah Nights), I gave converting it a shot.

The map is 100% the same as the DCon original. All I did was change the skybox texture, tweak some light colors and levels and remade the lowdetailmaps for the terrain. The "fog" of war is now pitch black, the lights are turned down low, the shadows are a little darker, and the sun has been converted into a hazy moon.

All the credit in the world goes to the DCon guys for making an awesome map. I just shut off the sun. Hope you all like it.

Also, as a side note, I did all my editing in terrain mode in the editor, so all of the gameplay modes are intact and the same as the original. Meaning, you have a Mosul Nights Conquest, CTF, Domination and Objective, all in one.

Enjoy the screenshots, tell me what you think, and if we end up playing it tonight, you can stop over at our weekly Wednesday night shenanigans to try it out. Download links are at the bottom. Enjoy!
