I've finished new Contra shellmap to replace the old one, which causes an error somehow. After hours of watching and re-editing, it's done and ready for you guys to download in order to replace the current one. It presents pack of action and some calm moment in the end (of each loop). Check it out!

Installation Instruction:
- Simply unzip all files to your Zero Hour directory

EDIT:
I've added some screenshots as example.

EDIT2:
New Shellmap is added (The Outpost).

That's what happens when the game detects no shell map. Try putting it directly into the !Contra ini file.

Great one Casojin, i like it. You should do few shellmaps for Contra 008 and Creator should putt it to download page, one with most USA units, then China and then GLA.

I have one advice too, try to make a pause between fights until camera moves and units are in center of view. Few times units fight each other and it was hard to see them in corner of screen. Also, make smaller map, it will give more battle.

I've thought about making some more shellmaps with more intense actions. This one is like a test run for my shellmap.

Is there ANY way to make the shellmap work in Windows 7 x64? I read elsewhere that it was impossible since, if the game detects the OS is 64-bit, it thinks you don't have a graphics adapter and hard-disables the shellmap.

Sounds pretty shitty as I just installed windows 7 64 bits. didnt try the shellmap yet though

[Dr. Lord]

Thanks Casojin! It works nice... You may make more like this. Like a presetation: new units, new spec powers, new firing methods...cool

[Casojin]

I'm trying to make another shellmap with smaller map. I also plan for more actions + better camera focus.

Would be really cool. I love the new one ^^

me 2 :(

Awesome, just 2 remarks.

1: Need more action near the end of the loop, after the artillery shooting each other.
2: Are USA and China supposed to be on a team, or not?

[lil tasman]

To everybody that says it doesn't work, Make sure that you put the folder in the your directory, not the data folder in your directory. Just put it in the area with all the BIG files.

Windows 7 64 bits is the reason...

[lil tasman]

That too. Zero hour always seems to go wrong in compatibility issues with windows 7.

Which is why I wanted to know if there was a way to FORCE the shellmap to work.

[Su8perkillr]

I tried compatibility mode but then it didnt even bothered to run.

This is an image from the second shellmap (WIP). It's an attack on USA outpost.
