Yea, It could be better. I am here working on a map in Syria to make it more interesting playing in the Syrian Civil War as it is a very violent civil war and many people die and a lot don't care about it
Sbeneh has a lot of buildings and has a green land space and the MEC didn't had jets, but here the urban area is going to be in North with some small Building pairs around the map and all in the map is going to be a steppe deser,trust me, it is going to be much different than Sbeneh
1KM maps:
- View distance should be at 400 meter minimum, 600 meter preferred.
- Skirmish 16 Game Mode only.
- No Vehicles.
- These maps are least likely to be added to PR. 1KM maps are considered "warmup" or "seeder", these maps are not conductive to the scale of PR. Submitting a 1KM map, it would need to be of exceptional quality in order to be considered.
2KM maps
- View distance should be at 600 meter minimum, 800 meter preferred. - No Fighter or Attack Jets
- Heavy Attack Helicopters are discouraged, Light Attack Helicopters prefered for the 2km.
- These maps are considerably better than 1km, but still not ideal for PR, the scale and pacing is not as ideal as 4KM. Submitting a 2KM map, the map needs to be of high quality in order to be considered.
4KM maps:
- View distance should be at 800 meter minimum, 1000 meter preferred.
- This is the ideal map size that PR is looking for. It offers a large-scale battlefield with many options and near infinite re-playability. Creating a 4KM map has the biggest chance of inclusion into PR.[/B]
Converting a map to a different size is much easier said than done, and it would be tricky for someone who is even an experienced mapper let alone a novice. Not only does it mean merging all the textures, statics etc to the new map size, which really isn't just a copy and paste job, you would also be converting a scale 2 map to a scale 4 map, (2m grid map to a 4m grid map), meaning your terrain detail will become 1/2 as detailed as it was before and t5hat alone will cause serious issues.
If you plan on making a 4km map, you should start it off as a 4km map and then maybe just focus on one area of the map and have that small area be the only playable area, to begin with, then expand it as you go, but this is easier said than done again.
In all, you really need to decide now if this is going to be a 2km map, or a 4km.
Just a mild suggestion, but maybe you can contact one of the developers if you can do a more urgent task regarding the Syrian Army Faction or maps that are already in development?
