I need to update my screen.

Edit:

bad static placement... look at referance pics and you will see that its not even closely similar

Major update on the city:

Is that the Muttrah mosque put in the ground there, in the center?

yes, I try to make the real tower my 3D max keep crash...

Some other mapper did something similar with the Muttrah mosque a while ago and was told by Rhino (I think) that it was a bad idea because a person has to load up the whole model, even if only the minaret/tower is visible.

It is a bad idea considering the fact that you will load an entirely new texture pallet for a static thats only 10% visible hence increasing loading times for such a minor feature

So now I have placed "xp1_tower" in the middle

Looking better now max.

You could improve your static placement a bit more by seperating buildings or spacing them out a bit, if you want them to be beside each other, it should be in a way where they match.
Hard for me to explain, but just use walls and stuff, good example would be Fallujah, it's a beautiful map to learn static placement from. (for me atleast)

Good luck on your map, looks good.

Looking good man, but are you going to dirty up that Mosque a bit?

OMG! I didnt know this was happening! I about creamed my pants when i saw this. This is where i was deployed. I wish i had known so you could have made a replica of where i was I have thousands of pictures and some video so let me know if you need anything. (FYI Musa Qala is a district so this map represents only a small part)


EDIT: BTW that minaret has been rebuilt and is now pink Seriously. Im going to find the pic and post it

EDIT 2: There it is as of 2010

Holy Freakin Cows of Awesomeness!!! This map is lookin amazing!

If there is gonna be an Apache in the final version, then I like it

Lets bump this!
But I'm still working on this, the reason I stopped working on it was when I saw the new Arfghan Statics a few years ago, but I really want to finish this project.

The ANA faction was just a test, I might bring it for Community Faction, but we need a second map first.

Minimap:


Video:


I need to remake a lot of stuff first, mainly the Overgroth, but I need to focus on the compounds layout.

EDIT: Can we change the title for 2Km instead of 4Km

changed title

Here's a minimap update.

Whats up with the west river?

I'm redoing the rivers, because I changed the water elevation recently.

Minimap Update,

really nice man, keep it up! How many statics and OG objects do you have atm?

Objects: ~10300
Overgrowth: ~4075




I use these fields as a guide for the moment, I will remove some them to make some open field, and I will weld them together using Mineral's tutorial for turning Static/OG as one Static Object.

I might also decrease OG density if it become a problem.
