Adittional info on the maps: Due to some major problems with my HD i lost most of my scheldt files. wich seemed to set me back in time for a few months i guess. but i was lucky to have some backups on a ftp. As you will notice there are 30 maps "done" but most a part of them are older version with outdated texture's. Wich will have to be redone in the future. but as they are allready playable i chose to focus on the maps wich still have to be done.

Data:
As you will know i chose to go with dima's type of data. at the moment we have a playable version but there are to many errors in the files to be able to call that a beta. Recently i spoke Dima, as he is a very busy man in his family company, after not having seen him for a month. He told me he almost had a playable beta ready and was guessing to be completly done around the 2nd week of january. So i'm keeping my fingers crossed on that one.
Also i have been busy redoing the elements adb as it lacked some elements due to the fact that Norden Made me a whole new set of Texture's. Following a list of new elements: (this list also contains those made by Manoi of course great thanks to his work, also PT11070 Gave me some advice on some elements.

Texture's:
You can find some info on this subject further on in this forum http://www.closecombatseries.net/CCS/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=2614

INtro Movie:
At the moment i have found 2 short movies about the battle online. I will, as soon as all the maps are done, try to make a nice movie using those 2 movies thogether.

I Hope to have informed you guys well enough on the status of my Mod

Cheers Buck

Hey Buck

Is it safe to assume that you are developing this mod to support both single and multiplayer modes? I have come across a few mods that were created for single player mode and either don't work or are buggy when an h2h game is attempted.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make the necessary adjustments to support multiplayer mode as well. I am really looking forward to playing this mod and am hoping to play it against some of CC friends as well.

Thanks for all your hard work on this.
