Link to the FCRS ftp server:

http://ftp.matrixgames.com/pub/FlashpointCampaignsRedStorm/Scenarios/

I believe version B is the file named germany_reforged___summer___alternative_map_graphics

Not 100% sure but I don't think all 27 maps were done in that scheme, there are only 7 maps in the zip.

Noob question..:

are the maps (both the original and the mods) tile based with a coloring overlay or are they drawn from scratch? Tx!

Hi govenrato,

The maps are computer drawn from scratch using the same underlying data: roads, bridges, labels are in the same spot for all maps.

Some games use extensive tile sets, other games rely on artist drawn maps, and we use another approach in this game, with the main benefit being able translate real-world terrain quickly to a game map.

Well done. This game has the most immersive maps in the industry that I know of ;). I wish more games invested (or had the budget to invest) in graphics and UI/UX as Flashpoint Campaigns does. It really pays off.
