Though I would introduce something that I have been working on for a few months now. It started out as my "break from schoolwork" thing and is near completion. In saying this, I figure I would present it to the PR community as a WIP. IMO, the PR community has the most critical mapping pundits per capita in all of gamming (lol, jk -kinda
)... Nonetheless, we will be testing alot in the near future and would appreciate feedback.OPERATION ARCHER: Winter 2009, North Eastern Afghanistan
TEAMS: USMC vs. MEC
MAP SIZE: 1024X1024
CP's: 14
SG's: 10
INFO: The American led Operation Archer is a push to remove the MEC forces out of a northwest province of Afghanistan. The 2 objectives of the US coalition forces is to push through the City and retake the nuculear plant east of the city. British intel suggests that the plant has been creating WMD's under the cover of a domestic engery generation plant. The Coalition's secondary objective is to destroy the opium plantations that generate funding for the MEC. The MEC have responded to the American advance with a objective to regain control of the oil production facility in the south and to abolish western influences within the region.

). While I'm on the fields, which do look great btw, you might also want to consider the texture of the land they are planted it. Helmand Province is a really good reference for crop textures. You can also use an FPS tool like fraps and move around your map to make sure you get a good average framerate and consider lower spec pcs (i.e. ones with only 1GB RAM). This will let you see what, if any, areas are sucking up the FPS (for me its my damn glows! 
).
. I am not much of an artist and texturing mountainsides kinda spook me,, lol! I'll give 'er a whirl!
