[Map] Badghis mountains (2km) [WIP]

[Pvt.LHeureux]

I agree with Arcturus, the urban area seems totally out of place. You could make a village with more villageous houses like the village in Al Basrah, that would fit better.

[Zeno]

1st pic: I honestly think that you should scrap that idea. Such a tiny dense urban area in the countryside doesn't look right.

2nd pic: I like it, as long you make more room.

I started with the "centre" and working on making the "suburb" with lots of houses that will make it more belivable

[rodrigoma]

I agree with Arc, that looks weird for afeganistan
I propose a really dense village with small huts, like there is in afeganistan, even add 1 modern building for interest, like in this pic:

I think something like this with really dense huts and tight alleys would be more fitting, interesting and different and not many pr maps have done it unfortunatly

[Zeno]

point taken, will see what i can do with the statics at hand

[Zeno]

better?

[lucky.BOY]

Hmm, what about waiting till Rhino finishes new Afghan statics? Just sayin.

This is as good as it can get with what you have, i like it, but it might get to a new level with Rhinos statics, if they are as good as i think they will be

mansion against the village look out of place, but the actual dense cluster of houses look neat.

I suggest watching the documentaries armadillo, and restrepo to gain some insight on the typical look of an afghan village, theyre quite well known I think.

Also, the main in the eastern VCP it appears as if that may be too close to some caches, or able to fired at from the hill close to it, I still think the forest main, in the southwest was the best choice.

[Zeno]

the plan was to make a school/govnerment building

[ExeTick]

I cant wait to play this map it looks really good.

I also have a helmet cam video of some pretty narrow streets if you'd like.

[Zeno]

im aiming to get more of this type of general terrain on the map:

[40mmrain]

quite ambitious, those are some cool images, perfect for scout helicopters too

[Rabbit]

My pictures were generally for outlay of villages, but ok.

[H.sta]

Those are great refs gx, I would love to see the video too if you have it

[MertSahin]

i really hope this map will be in next version it looks amazing
those firefights in the mountains will be fun i hope

[Kevokpo]

for the roads at the sides of the mountains you should take a look into Iron Eagle's mountains and its roads under the bridge, you should also look into lashkar valley's terrain, but I think you already did, so good luck with your map, hope you don't get many problems with it

[xambone]

I want to see mountains again Gandalf

[Rabbit]

3 bugs..

1st:




i have set it to change at 300m and it looks perfect in the editor, but when i load the map ingame it looks like shait, this was not a problem in the previous version.

If you have not fixed this... go to "General" above your layers folder and set "FarTopTilingHi" to 4 or 6.

little update after long inactivity:

[PGT_Hubbard]

Quite beautiful, please keep it up. That 4th screenshot has a sort of eerie feel to it.
