No I'm just more concerned about not asking permission for things as I know that I liked to be asked first, and if asked, I normally say yes, if not asked however then that's a different story.

I'm still waiting for you to replace your "place holder" Muttrah heightmap and colourmaps which you are using from my map too btw which you put in without asking me either.

EDIT: this also wouldn't be an issue if you made something orignal :p

Rhino, I'm not sure if you've noticed, but for the case you didnt, I'm a PR2 dev (yes, even officially), hence doing this for PR2, not for my own personal benefit. I still dont understand what you are trying to express with that attitude apart from "hurr durr I'm butthurt because someone tries to expand upon something I've built some years ago".
I've been open about anything that wasn't OC from the moment I've started this thread, while you have basically been doing nothing but pointing out how incredibly unoriginal everything I did is (even though I never implied to be original) and have furthermore been suspecting me of plagiarism right from the get-go.
Everything further should be discussed via PM. But be aware that the attitude you're showing here in a public forum, might cast a bad light on the relations between the PR:Bf2 and PR2 dev teams.

if you didn't get the " :p " at the end of the last bit that dose mean that I'm joking with you on the originality part there...

But anyways my concern was just the right people had not been contacted, since any work made online by copyright law belongs to the individual(s) who made it and those individuals need to give their consent in order for it to be used. I've yet to be asked for Muttrah's heightmap and colourmaps which I know your using as a "place holder" and I was worried that the same thing was happening here, but with Taxi's work and Having TwistedHelix's "ok" isn't enough on its own, but if IT has been contacted and gave his permission and your not using the orignal colourmap then that's all good there.

EDIT: also not stating some work isn't others work, even if not claiming it to all be your own isn't good practice. Its best to give credit to all contributed work at any time you get, which if you look at any of my blogs/highlights/posts showing new work + any other team members doing the same thing, you will always see my crediting everyone's contribution when ever something is showed off, how ever small it might be to avoid this kinda thing.

I don't think the problem is you asking, Rhino, but the tone of your posts.

Because once we'd use them we wouldnt be developing a standalone but a Crysis 2 Mod (given you are refering to the assets from the ModSDK). This option has been ruled out as far as I'm aware.

looks good. Although I'm more looking forward to brand new PR2 maps :p But I guess those are not for public to show yet ;)

can higher forest density's be achieved in comparison to BF2?

Only at the cost of a huge performance impact. People generally need to lower their expectations a bit, just because its a newer engine doesnt mean that certain hardware limitations can be bypassed :) . I'd even go as far and say, that the graphical fidelity you've seen on the screens (even though its not even that great) can only be maintained for 2x2km maps. Ofc there is always room for optimisations, but for that to run with 64 players on current mid-spec harware, certain trade-offs have to be made.

You are making PR2 to run on current mid-game hardware? Are the release date so close or you want it to be able to run on low-game PC when released? From that I known games are always made to run on high-end PC when making, because by the time game is released, those PC are mid-game already.

IMO if you're going to remake all the buildings, you might as well make more of them enterable.
On top of that probably change some of the buildings for variety, trying to recreate muttrah in a new engines great, but copy and pasting isn't.
