I should say that it was the Modern Weapons server I checked...

Yep, that map fix that Druid wrote is only for the old version of the Smolensk map. I don't have the mapping expertise to fix it, nor the inclination to dig into it to learn how. Any volunteers?

There is another After-hourz bas map we could try, called Lazur. Anyone want to give that a try in place of Smolensk?

As I remember, I think they just basically "sunk" the pak 20 feet underground! Not sure if anyone knows how to do that, but I think that was the coding fix.

In the version 1.1 are we sure the pak can actually fire into the spawning shed?

Very sure.

And yeah, Druid wrote a fix to sink that gun.

Smolensk tends to shed people as the game goes along. With all the glitches and lag issues all you hear is people bitching the whole time and they eventually just quit. I for one wouldn't mind trying Lazur, has anyone played it?

I like the cloaking device people were using.... it made it, um, interesting... fun games though, the visiblity on such a large flat map is fun, like broadsword.

It's been a while, but I've played Lazur, as well as Vitebsk. Both were a lot of fun but it was a loooong time ago and I couldn't really compare them to Barb or Smolensk at this point as far as strategy and gameplay goes. Any room on one of the boxes for a test bed where we can take a look at maps before promoting them to the main boxes?

I stopped by Smolensk a day or so ago and again last night.

Boy thats a big map and will take a bit of time for me to learn it thats for sure.

I liked it,so it bleeps,and sometimes things appear and disapear.

I'm sure in time our most wonderful team of computer experts "Ms.Steel and Old Man Mike' will put an end to those problems and hopefully the server will be off to the races. Thanks guys/gals for your efforts,they are appreciated im sure by all.

It's funny in the early afternoon i logged on and "i dont even know this map at all" and i was doing so well.i was shooting them up up ..It was like i was a god...LOL...I"ll show you a screeny down below....



So later in the night i logged on and figured let the games begin baby im ready...Well that was short lived...lol..Flatliner was there snipping away and my old friend Undead was there as well knocking them or me down...I almost text in to say WOULD someone PLEASE stand still so i can atleast get One kill Pleeeaasssee....LOL..I was like a lead foot and could'nt move for beans and when i did get going it was like BLAM your Dead...lol...Still it was fun and i'm still looking forward to my next painful lesson in Smolensk.

Heres the screeny.I hope it works

I liked Vitebsk too.... and Pegasus Bridge is a real beauty of a classy map.
I think Smolenk's reputation was irretrievably tarnished here two years ago by that shed spawn.

I play Smolensk and Broadsword every time I see them listed on
the MP servers. My 2 favorites now along with some of the stock
BAS maps...
