It's time for me to show you what this map is all about ...
I've been working on this one for quite a long time now and it's not finished at all ! But I can already give you some pics ...
SIZE: 2024x2

FACTIONS: US vs. MEC

GAMEMODES: Skirmish 16/AAS 16,32,64

BACKGROUND: Situated in North Pakistan, close to the Afghan frontier, the city of Mingora (Swat Valley) is on the Talibans control and all its population have leave the town to escape tirany in a refugee camp. They are broadcasting propaganda from a TV station well defended and wont let anyone stop their brainwashing machine. Inteligence reports that they're probably training there to make a new attack on Afghanistan, a lot of trafic between the city and the Railway Station as been spoted with UAV's. The US army as been deployed on the East of the city by the NATO to securise the valley and give
Mingora back to its people...

MINIMAP: TBA

And here is a video of the early stages :

Still love the look of this map.
Can't wait to be playing it, great looking work.

SOLID GOLD! Just look at those 2 minimaps section! So much detail in every little section!

One minor'ish thing: Can you test out several light-settings? This light-setting is a bit common imo. Or is that really hard to change?

Lookking good and VERY detailed cant wait to play this one.

Looks cool and tactically, very interesting.

Finally some maps with a bit forest and rivers etc. 90% of the new made maps are desert, and desert is boring.

Well this map looks great keep up the work

nice job man

That's beautiful

Looks like a map with a good feel to it.

Woah, indeed it has a good feel to it! Top quality.

Nice looking!

Looks like the kinda fighting I was looking for.

Looks Great!

Soo Much Detail! I think I need a bigger PC!

Amazing beyond comparison, never seen it's equivelant!

Wouldn't the map be better suited for a MEC v FF Fight? as opposed to the french fighting the taleban?

no not really

it is in pakistan, and IMO pakistan is part of the MEC. i know the taleban are in control over these areas now, but PR is set slightly in the future, and since the last ive heard from this conflict (IRL) is that the pakistan army is "winning".

now, this is supposed to be a major city, right? that'd be one (IPR - In PR) MEC armys main objectives in that area. spyker, why are you opposed to the Idea?

I am opposed to the idea as from what i have seen this map is largely cqb which is perfect for taliban. Plus the setting isnt really fixed the mapper could change it in 1 second to another place as long as it is in the mid east obviously

Very nice work there Le_Damner my friend...
too bad its purpose got changed but still a very good looking map

Wrong.

Pakistan is not part of MEC because MEC is arab speaking, pakistan is an Urdu speaking country. Pakitsan is not connected to MEC-possible members (excluding Iran, not in MEC either) and Pakistan is currently also fighting the Taliban (making it unlikely for it to fight coalition forces).

So no, not Pakistan, unless you want to make a new faction for them wich I doubt.

FF vs Tallies fits perfectly IMO.

Thanks for your feedback guyz !

I had the same argumentation as you in my mind, first it was suppose to oppose MEC vs. US (in its early stages). But looking for a possible situation in Middle-East I decided it will be Pakistan (Waziristan), where Talibans have the control and where FF could operate under NATO's orders.
As Spyker said, it is cqb oriented and I want it to be playable in an insurgency mod and also in AASv.3 ! I know it will be difficult to oppose such different armies in AAS, but I want to do this challenge ! I hope you will be able to help me to choose the good assets for Taleb' to fight the FF vehicles we'll have choose (waiting to be done).
And from what we see in the test sessions, Taliban's weaponery fit perfectly to the global ambiance (meaning you'll really want to play the bad guyz... IEDing the roads, putting traps evrywhere ... and have a lot of fun !:roll .
And, remember that this City is pure fiction and there is no real city like that in this region of the world...

To answer on question about lighting, it is basic light, I've already tryied some different things, but this is not final, I am working on it ...
