Map Creation

This is where our experts try to teach you the very flexible modding system for our previous release - SOW Gettysburg and its add-ons. It's powerful, but dangerous. Post your tips and your questions.

get hired by norb. No map creation for the peasants.
We have peasants on this site :ohmy: ...Im leaving!!!

Not so much a dark art as a disaplined art but you do need some good advanced skills in map design and creation...We are fortunate to have some very talented indivuals who have an abundance of these these skills and you will have seen posts that support this.

I sure in the fullness of time this game will be opened out(like TC2M)to the masses but at the moment new maps, scenarios ect is a good way of marketing the game and gaining additional income to support and develop further - which you can't possibly begrudge them for as it's a reward for their excellent work on SOW

Oh, and just to be clear. " The Map Team" make these maps for free in our own free time because we enjoy doing it and want Sow to succeed. B)
This is probably why the great state of Tennessee is called the Volunteer State !

There is absolutely no payment involved with the Map-Team!

But, there is an added bonus, we get screamed at a lot, does that count!

The only true logic is that, there is no true logic!

So its become a dark art then, something we are unable to learn...
Mike, I didnt mean to come across crass, sorry if I did my friend! I am a first rate A-hole from Texas. Like little Powell said someday it will be opened up. Just start modding what you can and get that down and let the team know you want to make maps..and who knows, thats what myself and the mod team did. These guys just started in January and have released four maps between them. So more good stuff down the road. I do apologize if I cam across in a foul manner.....
No offence was taken :)
