Stalingrad City un-damaged ??

[jollyjack]

I would like a non damaged Stalingrad city, so we can kick ass to that nasty bunch before they destroyed it.

 

All the building blocks used called Stalingrad_00, townblock500x500u_04 etc are already permanently pre-damaged.

Railways are blocked due present wagons included in those blocks from the Stalingrad city group.

I must say all those bomb craters look a lot nicer than the ground crater blobs, but they're coded into the map itself.

I put some 'normal' townblocks on the Stalingrad map to get the isea, but it's the same as with Arras,

i wish you could switch off them pointless hard-coded explosions.

 

An un-damaged city as playground for that nice new collector GAZ AA truck shooting Stukas?

If you have the truck you can do some sightseeing; download mission attached:

Well there are generic undamaged building blocks for the Russian maps, so I suppose you could use those to create an undamaged Stalingrad. However, as you have noticed, the ground textures are part of the map itself so changing those would be a hell of a job (there's about a hundred of them, IIRC).

 

As for the usefulness; IIRC Stalingrad was only bombed starting with the huge attack on the 23rd of August. This started in the dead of night, so you wouldn't be able to see well whether the buildings are damaged or not, and by morning a large part of the city was already a burning, smoking pile of rubble.

I am already trying that for buildings. As for the explosions, also on the Arras map, are there no mapemitters used hidden in some GTP file?

Would be nice for game sake (some fictive campaign?) to start before the nazis destroyed the city.

 

ADDED: i suspect the explosions are here somewhere maybe: ... data\\luascripts\worldobjects\explosions

((un-GTP the scripts.GTP file)
