I want to create a custom map focussed on trench and bunker warfare, basically combat restricted into trenches with the capture points inside bunkers!
It will work like the farcry map editor, with default landscapes taken from the campaigns but also the ability to select custom landscapes such as flat ground with a theme form the campaigns like desert, plains, and tundra. Buildings will be ripped from campaigns and tools will be added to modify the landscapes.
Editor’s Shovel, has a variety of modes:
First mode will allow you to raise and lower the landscapes, as well as smoothing them after you’re done so they aren’t rough.
Second mode will allow you to take precise chunks out of the land scape, select a 1 by 1 square, adjustable circle, adjustable rectangle, 90 degree curve, and more. This is how to build trenches.
Third mode will allow you to place objects such as buildings, spawn points, engineer buildables, weapon pickups, objects, and other similar things.
Fourth mode allows you to change environmental settings, like water level in a section, weather, background sounds, sun brightness, and tone.
I can imagine it now, it’s 1944 in a forest in Finland and the Soviets have discovered a trench network surrounded by razor wire that leads to large bunkers under the surface, there’s a huge snowstorm underway and the 3rd shock army leaps into the trenches and a fire fight ensues, eventually they make there way into the bunker (which just so happens to be the 3 story bunker from Normandy) and they clear the point by spraying PPD-40s, PPSh-41s M1928A1s, and executing any survivors with TT-33s.
They then exit the bunker only to find a long trench ahead with a MG-131 setup up, so a Commissar orders all peasants to charge against the 13×64mmB hellfire, which doesn’t work. So a Soviet soldier recommends that he be allowed to use his Sniper AVS-36 against the Germut on the MG but the Commissar denies, so the Soviet soldiers chop his hand off with an Axe causing him to drop his Nagant, they then order him to Sprint at the Machine Gunner which distracts the Germut allowing the sniper to shoot the Machine Gunner.
Anyways if you have anything to add to this I will give you credit for your contribution.
