INTRODUCTION TO THE CONTENT :

A strict selection has been made to keep interesting maps, for the landscape they developped, the battleground set, and the fairness of their game.
The balance of the maps was made throughout betatests, where players among the 100 best players of Shogun 2 were invited to play these maps, and to make a report upon each map played.

A tournament logo "[t]" has been added to the most balanced maps, that presented nice battlefields, where each team has nearly the same chance to win.
Hard, specials, and more complex maps, such as cities, forts, or kind of mod maps are part of the normal list.

A "[CP.I]" logo (Community Pack I) has been added to each map of this pack. So everytime you see someone playing a [CP.I] map, it means he has the same content as you, and the same version of the map.

The pack contains 45 MAPS,

TRY TO SHARE THIS PACK AS MUCH AS YOU CAN !
So everyone may have it! ~

INSTALLATION :

Before installing the map pack, shut down Shogun 2!
Once the download done, move the Shogun2CommunityMapPack I.rar to :

>> Windows 7 :
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Shogun2\maps\
>> Windows XP :
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\The Creative Assembly\Shogun2\maps\

And "extract here" the .rar file with winrar or winzip.
45 folders should appear, the first folder being " cp.i.a wee bit rocky[t] "

>>> AppData folder is a hidden folder! If you can't see this folder, ensure that you have ticked the option to see hidden folders and files.
(press ALT in any folder, choose Tools, and Folder Options, go to the View tab, and tick the line "Show hidden files, folders, and drives", AppData will appear)


HOW TO PLAY A CUSTOM MAP :

TO PLAY these new costum maps in multiplayer, you have to do NOT TICK the "key-buildings" entry to find these maps.
If you are the HOST, be aware that changing your army and vassals while other players are downloading it will resset the download and change map on Aki.
SO, open slots after you have made your army, or make your army when all people have finished to download the map and choose again the map you wished to play.


SPECIAL THANKS :

Thanks to Kostas84 that created a thread on TWCenter to "Show off your newly created Maps",
and to the first list of these maps dressed by LesTat, we had access to a nice map database.

I particularly thanks WolfSwoosh that convinced me, more than just converting the maps I found to a more playable content (1v1 maps updated to 4v4, addition of dojos, and map balancing), to create a pack of these maps, so a wide diffusion would be possible.

Your dear fellow and administrator of Shogun Crafters,

Taharqa

[♔The Black Knight♔]

Looks great

Looking foward to more maps being added.

[joejoe7423666]

can you use these maps in single player campaigns too?

[Dirac]

Thanks for the effort, but I have a problem.
I put all of these maps in the maps folder, but when I go to custom battle screen, and try to choose the maps, some of the old maps are gone and there are some (half of total maps) maps with no name on them. Is it just me?

[Taharqa]

Well, these maps can't overpass the creative assembly maps, cause CA maps are not editable and can't be suppress.
If you have followed the tutorial, you shouldn't have any trouble.
The map pack was downloaded more than 250 times....and Dirac you re the first one that has reported a bug.
Maybe, delete all the maps, and re install them following the instructions one more time.

[Olav96]

Nice, Thank you

[Lithuex]

Also wondering what joejoe asked. Can these be played in the campaign at all?

[LestaT]

No. Some people is still figuring out how to add custom maps to campaign but I couldn't see any successful ones yet.

[Lord Baal]

No, not by changing the files or adding them with a script.

[djsint2]

is it possible to play these maps in single-player?

[LestaT]

is it possible to play these maps in single-player?

Single player campaign, no. Custom battle, yes.

[BUG13214]

[LestaT]

Show a screen shot your your folder where you install the map together with the link.

About INSTALLATION :

[pukadog]

Rep+ for you map!

[panzerschreck]

Hello, I need a little help please: I am looking in shogun II a building that soldiers can jump (like a wall, a hedge, or anything else.).
Most of the time soldiers are blocked by the buildings or ,more annoying, they cross the building like if it wasn't here! I am searching a building that can be jump.
If there are several types, it's better!
thanks+rep for any help
