While PR is about realism u can still make a map of any location in the world and play pretty much any factions you want within reason. I think you need to stop thinking of ur map as "being in india" just like the mogadishu map in PR.... Its now called Ramiel and has Iraqi insurgents.. You are limiting your choices atm by worrying about factions. Go with the docked carrier idea. Do it well as no one else has done it yet.VapoMan wrote:If I go with insurgency there will be a few problems.
1. Why would the carrier be docked there if insurgents are in the area.
2.Why would the insurgents be there. I haven't heard of taliban or iraqi insurgents in india.
3.With the carrier docked so close to the action, its very vulnerable.
Having it docked is cool, but ill leave that idea for later. It doesnt fit in well with this map.
The alternative for the MEC map would be this:
[ATTACH]3749[/ATTACH]
With the USMC Carrier/British base in the bottom right corner, and the MEC base above the bottom left corner, near the yellowish rectangles.
This would be much more to scale, but still not completly accurate.
The port the map will feature is actually Kandla Port, the second largest in India.
So the Map should actually be called "Kandla Port", "Port Kandla", or "Kandla Docks", as Gandhi Dam is hardly part of the map.
Let this be a lesson to you all, RESEARCH, then come up with a name.
It will be a 2km map, but wont have the play area streching to the border.
The reason the MEC are there?
They have invaded this region of India. Not necessarily all of India, but this part, as it is not very central.
Im just starting the basic terrain in BF2 Editor now...
The carrier is most likey going to be gone.[R-DEV]fuzzhead wrote:Looks like a good start... not sold on the carrier idea but we see how it turns out

why? its just a static, and its not even used in any map in pr currently.[R-CON]J.F.Leusch69 wrote:and remove the vbf2 TV station!

You give this 'advice' to everyone who might dare use this static, and go on to tell us to use less Vanilla buildings. Of course, you wouldn't dare tell a DEV to not use any vanilla statics but to us novice community members we can't even test out mapping without being told it won't work from the get go...[R-CON]J.F.Leusch69 wrote:and remove the vbf2 TV station!

No wonder why so many people are put off mapping. Just because we don't have an R- tag or a big post count doesn't make us mentally challenged.
