Hey everyone, so before the summer I decided to make this map for PRF. Doubt itll be used as its such a small battle but Ive decided to do it anyways. After thinking about it after the summer I changed it from a 2km to a 4km and re did the scale of it so it should be pretty close.

For those who dont know, Op. Paraquet was the op by the British to retake the island after the Argentina Forces took it. It lasted about 20 min in a very small port called "Grytviken". Still I thought it was a pretty neat place so here it is.

Minimap (taller areas didnt render on it properly)


On the docks


Grytviken WIP


Mountains


Mirror lake


Fishing outpost


Few issues
1. minimap doesnt render fully
2. water isnt nice even after lightmapping

Thats it for now! Any comments and things are very welcome!

cool, glad your back on this

You can fix the minimap problem by editing the minimap script. Your problem is your mountains extend above 500m which is where the minimap is normally captured from so you will have to increase that to something like 700m in order to get above them

As for the water, have you generated ENV maps?

Looks really nice!

Oh thanks Ill do that, and with the light maps stupid mistake on my part. Forget them D:

Slow progress

New minimap
- I forgot to lower the water level so that happened to my village..
- Also lightmaps are screwy







Still lots to do... anyone know why the rocks look like that, there not the overgrowth kind.

glad to know you managed to do the minimap XD

yea the photoshop script didnt work so I did it by hand, no big xD

\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\makeMiniMap.con / makeMegaMap_1024x4.con

Thous are the scripts you need to edit. Need to change:
renderer.makeTopWorldScreen 512 miniMap 0/500/0 2048

note first 0/500/0 is x,y,z, with y being how high off the ground it generates the minimap, you just need to increase that to be above your max terrain. Don't forget to backup.

And the reason why I didn't reply to your PM is because as I told you before, I don't help over PMs, I was waiting for you to ask the question in the forums...

I know but to start so many threads for little questions.. I just dont want to spam the forums. I found it anyways but thanks. Plus I bother you enough so I see why its annoying.

Update..

I have both teams working with kits, most of the CP's done, I think the over/under growth is done other than any tweaks or things I need to fix, lightmaps are done but will be done again when I'm almost complete. For the GB there is the cargo ship with some heli's for that I'm thinking
-2 cargo
-1 troop carrier or vice versa
-maybe a CAS
-and a few ribs


Fishing outpost


Little baracade for the arg (hasnt been LM)


Little settlement on mirror lake


Main CP Grytviken

And a vid just showing some terrain and the CP's and Ive just noticed how bad the xfire vid is so bare with me

Good to know you're back on that map. Falklands appreciate it.

What happened to the sub though?

I got a new pc and its on my laptop and its not working properly so Im going to retexture it and re-export it

You've probably got an uncompressed version of that video on your hard drive, you can compress it yourself and upload it to Youtube.

Still working on this mate?
