Full Custom Battlefield 1942 Multiplayer Conquest Map for Desert Combat Mod
MAP DESCRIPTION
Road to Basra (Road_To_Basra.rfa) v.0.35 Alpha Release
A Desert Combat, Conquest Map. (Unofficial)
This is a composite map based on events, places, and written & broadcasted news reports about the war on Iraq.
This map contains most of the land and air vehicles featured in the DC .35e Alpha release.
Map Objectives:
There are 2 permanent flag bases; The Iraqui Military Command Center, and The Coalition Staging Point Base.
There are 5 Primary flag points to capture (AreaValue); An Iraqi Airfield (30), The Republican Guard Base (25), The Oil Refinery (25), Iraqi Government Building (20), and a Small Village (20)
There are 2 Secondary flag points to secure; An Outpost near the airfield and a Hotel in the city. These two have zero AreaValue but it has strategic value; it brings you closer to the action.

------------------------
v.0.1 A (April 24, 2003)
On the load screen, the progress bar fills up then refreshes numerous times while loading. I don't know why it does this (in my machine) but it loads just as well.
I'm having difficulty creating a MaterialMap file (I followed every Tutorial out there but the file still crashes the game), as for now I am using El Almein's MaterialMap. :(
Map Shadows and textures need improvement and Object Lightmaps are not done. Next upgrade...
For now its just straight multiplayer Conquest for DC. No Single Player mode, CTF, Co-Op, TDM, S&D, RTR, or BF1942 support.
If anyone with the mapping resources, tools, time and skill would like to help further the development of this map, please contact me at [email protected].
Slows or lags (momentary freeze) during flag capture or multiple vehicle spawns. Watch out for the city area's high FPS rate.
Map balancing... Not done yet.
