NEW & FINAL VERSION RELEASE!

Days in the making, here it is... the final version of Urban Tank Fight!
I'm pretty happy with this map and I think I've done everything I set out to do originally and then some. It's been a blast making this and playtesting it with you folks! The people playtesting this map really gave me a lot of input. I've tried to incorporate your suggestions into this release as best I could. Most of the buildings have interiors now... more or less. There's an airfield on the German/Blue side as well as a military train! Also scaled down the spawn building and... I added stairs so you can get down without having to waste precious time building your own. I didn't really have the time or patience to do bomb craters and debris like I would have liked to but it's a pain in the ass so maybe someday... anyhow, Happy 235th Independence Day & ENJOY THIS MAP! Feel free to host this.

Hey Buffet_of_Lies, I found a site that gives good closeups of some voxel tanks and other stuff. Here's the link if you want to check it out

By "interior building" I mean building floors and rooms and hallways and such. I'm adding interiors to all of the buildings now. It seems to add to the gameplay. Anybody want to make me some KVX models of various trees in slab6? I've scaled down all the buildings except the factory. Not sure what I am going to do with that.

What do you mean by interior building?

If by "fire escapes" you mean stairs down from the building, then no. Build your own! That's half the point of the game.

Buffet, you should add fire escapes (If you haven't)

Yeah the scale in the game is a bit weird... I liked the enormous buildings but scaling them down doesn't appear to have changed gameplay that much.

The new (from 2 days ago) Stalingrad map plays great, and it feels more balanced since the buildings are smaller? Don't know how that works but it does.

You sure love email.

Send me an email and I will.

I might be able to do an interior (the 2x smaller L building).
Can you send the model file?

Here's a preview of a newer, more-densely populated version of this map. I've made the spawn building smaller and added several new buildings as well as an airfield and a train.

SCREENSHOT:

A lot of people complain that the buildings are, mostly, solid on the inside. This is a tradeoff in favor of making the buildings a little less grief-able. It's a digging and building game, in addition to being an FPS, so building stairs and tunneling through things is part of the deal. I also simply don;t have the time or inclination to build interiors for the buildings, though, if someone really wants to do so, let me know. I'm tentatively looking for other people who might want to help with building better maps. I need object modelers, interior builders, and crater/bomb damage detailers. If anybody is interested in applying, send an email to angrydroid@hotmail.com and maybe we can work together. I also might be releasing the architectural models from my maps as separate KVX files so you can build your own city maps.

Anyways... expect a new version of UTF to be released soon! Possibly later today.

You can go inside the buildings. And some of them not all of them. But whatever, it's a tradeoff between a building being griefable or not. Working on a new version that brings the scale of the buildings down a bit.

Looked at it in VOXED, looks amazing. The only thing I would like to see it that you can go inside the building., not all buildings but some of them.

I think what Eggy & JukelProNabb are missing here is the subtle difference between me accusing Jukel of stealing an early "urban" map. Which I never did do. I actually excused myself out of a disagreement between two other people. I thought I had been discussing maps with "mapmakers" but it turned into a grade-school playground argument. Just to be perfectly clear, though, aside from my use of some prefab models, my maps are, in fact, entirely authored by myself and nobody else.

Nice job Buffet_of_Lies. It's really came a long way since you first started working on it. And for anyone doubting that Buffet_of_Lies is the original author, I can confirm that he is.

Played it for a little while some evening, felt like a great map.

@ Eggy,

We all know that buffet made all of the tank/stalingrad maps.

hey alex i took a break now im playing again id love to post some vids with you we could play together and both record. im gonna host thi smap soon

HOLY FUCK O.o
i havent seen jukel in like a month XD
and no, no he did not

Did you steal the map

@EggyLv.999: I am sure you thought you were being very clever when you wrote that. If you're even half-serious about any of that then you are sadly mistaken. Get a life.

And @MegaDeuce... I have half a mind to make a My Tank is Fight map now. I'd forgotten about that page.

Nice. It'd be pretty awesome to get a random map and just spam tanks all over it...

Someone else did a map called stalingrad... And you stole it, gave it its own name, added tanks, and put your name all over the bottom quarter of the map, completely ignoring the original author.

tl;dr: OP is a fag.

If you want some tanks to add to your maps here's two AoS KVX models of a T-34 and a Panther panzer. Just hit U in Voxed to import them into your map! Use numpad to move around.

Your tank is fight.

I decided to attempt to come up with another map name because someone else did a map called Stalingrad. Here's... Urban Tank Fight, an urban WW2 Eastern Front setting of some vague description. There's some tanks. I've resized some of the buildings and added a few things here and there. Hope you like it. Expect more maps soon!
