Fantastic Job Z! Hey I found an imperfection with one of my German uniform skins.

No time to test on my end until now.

I have emailed you the file to replace in the iwd. I have already done so on our server and in our download section.

Did a nice little piece on our front page for your map also. Trying to keep the pub aware of the creativity that is out there in the CoD community when there are no handcuff's.

Thanks and Merry Christmas.

Zeroy, you did it again! You have given many gamers a very Merry Christmas. The map is perfect. The music from the radio, lighted decorated steps, presents, snow flakes and lights everywhere, is the perfect Christmas map! If there is a Christmas map award this year then you win it my friend!

[Mr.Ray]

You gave me a heads up yesterday afternoon about this map except all you told me was that you had a new release coming out.......

What you didnt tell me was that you were giving the members here and the community in general the best present that could be given!!!!!

This is a fantastic map!! I dont know how many times I am going to have to play it to find all the things that you managed to pack into it.

Well Done, you are the MASTER and Santa Claus rolled up in that leprechaun body of yours!

Thank You.

First of all, WOW
It looks amazing. Love the way the snow blows up, and all those little lights...

Now for the 'bad news', the mapname is too long. When I add it to mod.arena, and use start server from the main menu to start the map, it tries to start mp_argentan_xma. Seems cod5 doesn't like mapnames over 15 characters long, sigh. Just another limitation I guess.
Zeroy, is there way you could easily rerelease it with say mp_argentan_x ?

Thnx and A Merry Christmas for those who haven't finished yet ;-)
