Objectives | See the saveryanreadme.txt for more info | Many thanks to: info_design for playtesting Atilla for early compiling/testing My Mum for countless cups of tea
Private Ryan- Blue Team Ryan must escape from France to return home to his Ma. At the moment he is hiding in safety in the temporary Allied HQ. He must proceed to the radio in the town (see picture) where instructions can be passed to a waiting landing craft to open the doors. Ryan must then go to this landing craft (see picture) where it will carry him home. Please note that if you die after opening the doors, you do not have to go back to the radio. USMC- Red Team The USMC have several objectives: 1) Kill as many Nazis as possible. 2) Make sure Ryan gets home safely. 3) Destroy the Nazi com center, located in a building in the town near the bridge (see picture). This can be achieved by using high explosives in its vicinity. 4) Protect the plans in your HQ from falling into enemy hands. Nazis- Yellow Team The Nazis have several objectives: 1) Kill as many Americans as possible. 2) Kill Private Ryan. 3) Steal the plans from the USMC HQ (see picture) and return it to their HQ. The plans are inside a safe, so use high explosives in it's vicinity. 4) Protect the com center from being destroyed.

The level is still playable without Private Ryan- individual kills contribute to team scores Frame rates will drop when you are up on the church- I suggest that you only go up there if you are a sniper Artillery is available every 3 minutes The radio must be "used" to open the door to the LC. If Ryan is killed, the doors stay open if they have been already- there is no need to press the button again until after you have escaped. Troubleshooting: Unfortunately, this map isn't bug free (and there is nothing I can do about it). It says "couldn't load saveryan.wad" Move saveryan.wad into your TFC folder (alongside tfc.wad) When I start playing as Ryan, I drop out of the sky as my starting position Reload the map As Ryan, I go to the radio and the doors don't open You have to "use" the radio. Be warned that pressing it twice will close it again. When Ryan dies, the doors don't close (this only happens if Ryan escapes) E-mail me at scabin@hotmail.com My homepage is at http://www.gameditors.co.uk I am considering making a TFC WW2 map pack, if anyone is interested in helping please e-mail me.
