Agree, RUS have too many maps already. And Blufor vs Blufor would be nice for a change.

CF vs USA ?

If this war has ever a chance of starting, it will be over in a day

there never are too many maps!
But I agree with them blufor on blufor would be nice but I dont think it would fit in this map.
if it was perhaps if it was germany against france or usa I would approve more

Get the terrain imported into the editor, and then decide where to go

Wow, It's great to see that there's so much interest in the concept (for those of you who don't know, I'm the other guy) I've started work on the terrain from a different orientation than Shaun but it is still cypress. By the way, does anyone know of a better way to map than making an imaginary grid over google earth and finding elevations from there? Because that's the way I'm doing it now and it's a pain. Using L3DT standard for the terrain.
edit:
I do like the idea of blufor vs. blufor but that situation would be even more illogical than it already is with it being RU vs. CF.

Have you tried using DEM data?

PR already have really silly scenarios with maps with RUvsIDF ot
RUvsPLA,and especially GB and USMC against Chechen Rebels.
So China vs Canada why not . . . Anyway it is yours map guys
so you can put even MEC if you want . . .

RUvsPLA is not silly at all. Sino-Soviet border conflict - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
But RUvsIDF is just nonsense.

thanks sylent /shooter, I'll try it out

There will also be some statics I will attempt to create, including, a shack, ski lifts, ski lift column supports, and a chalet.

that first tutorial by zeno is very broken, It took me many desperation and frustration to make it work, although it is quite simple after you know how to and then have things set up, If you need help ask

I luv snow ! Can't wait to see that one.

Bluefor vs Bluefor would be epic.
I also like the idea of CA vs US, since they have a rivalry always.

Nice concept too!

Hey, where can i find those snow maps ? I looked in the map list for all diffrent game modes but i can't find them :/

Its cause they were in a third party map pack that was released for the holidays some odd 2 years ago.

Ah I see.

I like RU vs CA .

Wolverine Bacon!

The resort has 2001 feet, or as you northern heathens call it, 610 meters, of elevation, that is the exact max allowed in the BF2 engine. Interested to see how you work it out.

Quick tip I picked up, make sure your lowest point of elevation is at least 0.01 meters high. THis will avoid weird Z fighting issues in the undergrowth and other layers.

We have the unused wind power turbine static that was used in Wanda Shan, might be a nice touch.

Can we haz snowboard halfpipe?

From the altitudes I'm using, the chalet is 910m above sea and the highest point is around 1440m... I was unaware that the max was 610m, that'll be tricky to fit in but I can probably just substract 830m from all the vales on the design map, which would leave the highest point at the max elevation.
Also the halfpipe that is there permanently will most likely show up in the altitudes I'm getting from google earth, so there's probably going to be one wether anyone likes it or not.

Simplest way is get high a heightmap from here http://srtm.csi.cgiar.org/SELECTION/inputCoord.asp, then once its in the editor adjust the terrain height through the level settings to its max, adjusting that value will adjust all heights accordingly.

cool, thanks gx. I'll try it out.

Alright, sorry for the long inactivity, Hawkowl and I had some tests and exams over the few weeks that we were learning and getting used to the editor, L3DT and 3DsMax. We will try to accelerate our work over the break and try to make some good progress. Wish us luck and if somebody could change the '[Concept]' to '[WIP]' that would be great
