[Request] Hi-resolution map photo's

Post by NemeanHavoc »

I was wondering if people have or could make some hi-resolution pictures from 2 maps:

-Operation Archer
-Korengal valley

Since I cant run PR on the highest resolution I cant make them.
Most important is that the buildings are on the map. I want to make a map, like the NATO staff maps. with buildings numbers etc.. I want to test the concept and see if it works better.
I hope someone can help me.

I really don't see what you really want, maybe if you explain the purpose of this maps, we can help. You wanna make a tactical map, topological map or what? How big you wanna it?

The topological is up to 1024px, and the full map up to 4096px

Sorry I was away for a while.

I have worked with Nato staff maps, for example we had a map of the Tarin kowt area in Uruzgan province. (Afghanistan).

Every building and compound in the area where giving a specific number.
So if we requested support, or get orders for a specific task everyone knew which building it was.

So if i have a insurgency map, and rework the minimap,
For example the commander can giver orders like: "Squad 1 clear the compounds 1 2 and 3.
this way commanders could work really systematicly.

You get the ID?


edit: Thanks jonny found the Minimaps, sometimes I see mapers who have a very hi-res pic for there map ingame, that was what I was looking for, but this wil work.

humn, interresting but I think the minimap, its too "mini" for you to put numbers in each house.
The further you can go is spliting the keypad in quadrants, but it maybe confussing!

that the greater res you can get for a 2x2km map. hope it helps.

I agree. Also do not forget that If you entail that you will change the Mini-map into numbered compounds, the minimap is mutual. So the other faction would have the same thing. Not really ideal when it comes to the insurgents. I doubt they even have maps of the area, let alone be that organized

Well from what I know Taliban is pretty well organised.
Thing is they mostly live in the area where we are operating right now,
They know it like the back of there hand.. I Think it wouldn't be a bad thing.
Anyways I just going to give it a try.
