Spotlight: maps & scenarios
Hey there, I thought this might be an interesting thread to have. I shall start with the latest scenario Jacob's Ford submitted by Korsfarer Mogens. Jacob's Ford was supposed to be a stronghold near Jordan river. However, it was short-lived, because Crusaders there were defeated by Saladin. Korsfarer Mogens wrote much more about the history. In this scenario you are supposed to try to finish Jacob's Ford and to defend it against Saladin. This is an interesting scenario. I tried it two times -
Feedback thread for maps created by odisseus
During the last few days I've submitted three maps for Stronghold 1 and they haven't been approved as of this moment.

However, I have absolutely no experience in analyzing binary files, so any relevant information could save me a lot of work. -

In this level there are 3 castles 2 North and 1 South. It is suggested that I take the one that is South. In the video it shows a mounted catapult and a decent number of archers in the south castle. But when I play: I see no catapult, t -
Sending custom maps in stronghold crusader HD
Hello all!, I'm having a problem with custom maps. I have owned the original stronghold series since it's launch back in 1999 (i think). I bought Stronghold crusader on steam as me and my family were having problems connecting using the original disks and steam made it easy for multiplayer. I made a custom map today as i had not done so in ages and if i remember rightly when someone who didn't have the map wanted to play you could hit a button and the map would automatically be sent to their com
