William did a fantastic job reworking all of the Red Storm maps. Really steps up the look of the game while staying clear on terrain elements and elevations.

Congrats and Kudos to William for the fantastic evolution of his amazing style on the new maps and Congrats and Kudos to Plodder for his contributing influences which are clearly present.

Result: Fantastic Maps for the enjoyment of all concerned.

Great Work on the Maps.

Great to hear you like the new map graphics. And, just as important, that you recognize the community effort that lead to these map graphics. Hence, the "Player's Edition".

"Red Storm", right from the start, has been a game that is open for user-created content: scenarios, units, maps and graphics.
This triggered a number of people to create alternative maps graphics, notably Plodder, Nick69, Jamm, RJLee, Takoda and myself. I know I nicked great ideas from all of them, and worked in some more from the OTS team. Even more people provided suggestions and encouragement on these forums. The fact that Steve modeled all Red Storm maps accurately after real-world Germany made it possible to enrich these maps with more information such as road numbers.

So enjoy the game with these maps, or with any other alternative from our community! You'll find alternatives on the OTS website (here), and some older ones in the threads of the "Mods and Scenarios" sub-forum.

William

Nice planning maps to on the website.

Only a confusion with the naming of the zip's
and the removal of the streams.

Ouch. Harry, thanks for reporting!
The absence of streams on those planning maps is a bug - I completely overlooked that. Perhaps I've been looking at maps too much recently...
I'll create a new bunch, upload them and ask Cap'n Darwin to remove the outdated entries.
