[Map] Ambush at Al Fashar (4km) [WIP]

[Rudd]

The Kiowa is being brought in to PR from USI afaik, the mapper doesn't need to concern himself with that until much later

Ya I'm not really focusing on anything but the map itself vehicles will *** later. I'm downloading all the tools that someone so kindly sent me at home. I'm at school right now, but wen I get home ill post my finished terrain and stuff.I may turn part of the desert into poppy fields (probably the nw of the city) wut do u guys think?

[J.F.Leusch69]

stick as close to reality as possible, with ref pictures and stuff

and those terrain generating programms are a good first step, but i will have to edit a lot by hand, no matter which programm you gonna use same goes for terrain painting!
dont call your terrain done within less than a week because this cant be truth

the best would be to do a small 0.5 or 1 km map anyway to really get used to all the editor tools and the steps it takes to complete a map (smaller map = smaller amount of time= more learning in less time)

cheers

I fail.

I must have read it before you posted that. I was refering to a map, I believe Zeno was making, with the name Sar-e-Pol. What I was saying was, Your map connects to his map and if someone made another map that was connected it would be a series of maps.

haha its all good. that would be a really good idea though. I find the area to be a rather interesting area to try to map.

Zenos map is only a test version

it was 0,5 km... and i don't think it was an actual part of the city

[Zeno]

my map was actualy based on this valley SE of the city of sar-e Pol
