krycek 349 Posted January 4, 2011 This map looks omgtastic but please add even one enterable expensive house/villa because ArmA2 has none! I love playing cops n robs but i need a nice villa for my drug baron! This is european map so if possible an estate or nicely decorated castle would be perfect :) Haha I remember I used to like that building which was Guba's villa/hq on Kolgujev,then it made an appearance in A1. I always used it as my base of operations,besides it was the most "decent" building in those games.In A2 I've relocated to Devil's Castle although the place could use a renovation.:p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richard 10 Posted January 4, 2011 The beta is very close now, just some finishing touches are being done. And I can also say that beta won't be anything like the final release (which, fyi, comes when it's finished). Also about that villa, it's a communist island, everyone is equal. But there will be a castle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lightspeed_aust 681 Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) villa because ArmA2 has none! you clearly have not been playing on Zargabad - it has a brilliant druglords villa in it. ------------------ beautiful work and contender for best teaser of 2011 and its only January :D can't wait to start scripting some original Ghost Recon missions here - back to Georgia. (it has that feel to it). Edited January 17, 2011 by Lightspeed_aust Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

krycek 349 Posted January 17, 2011 That looks wonderfull best city I've seen in an addon island,new buildings that aren't out of place,high detail to the city and I don't know why but those railroad tracks reminded me of City 17.:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icebreakr 3107 Posted January 17, 2011 Richard & -Martin-: can you do something about replacing the "autumn" trees with more spring like? Maybe just retexture the majority to green? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-martin- 10 Posted January 17, 2011 Richard & -Martin-: can you do something about replacing the "autumn" trees with more spring like? Maybe just retexture the majority to green? Well if we replace the autumn trees with spring like trees we will loose the autumn effect which we are trying to achieve. We will have to see about that, maybe later we will make a spring version of Taviana Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dlang 24 Posted January 17, 2011 Maybe spring trees on the other island ? Martin it look awesome. No time to write, im on my phone but... ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkhorse 1-6 16 Posted January 17, 2011 I know the orange trees cause so much lag my PC crashes if I accidently wander into an area full of them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-martin- 10 Posted January 17, 2011 I know the orange trees cause so much lag my PC crashes if I accidently wander into an area full of them... Hmmm, I'll have a look at the orange tree model and see if I can optimise it better, if I can then we will see how it behaves in this beta, if your pc still crashes because of them I promise to replace them. Does anyone know of any autumn nature packs for ArmA 2? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darkhorse 1-6 16 Posted January 17, 2011 Wait... are you using the standard A2 orange trees? If not disregard that post. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richard 10 Posted January 17, 2011 Does anyone know of any autumn nature packs for ArmA 2? We can always make ours :smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Darkhorse 1-6 16 Posted January 17, 2011 I haven't had internet for about 5 months, so AFAIK 50 tree packs could have been released. lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

richard 10 Posted January 19, 2011 Hey, guys, just a quick note: me and Martin are raising the curtain behind making of Taviana, what that basically means is that we are writing a blog. Blog which will allow us to get that extra energy drink we sometimes really need. So, the first post is published and ready for you to read. Please notice that there are two pages :smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightspeed_aust 681 Posted January 19, 2011 Gr8 idea Richard and Martin - its not easy to find modders who you can work with or who are thinking the same - I've only found it once in about 5 years of modding so glad to see it's working. Thanx for the blog. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topas 1 Posted January 19, 2011 Nice idea. it's sometimes good to see who's behind a project, see his/her's motivation and stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richard 10 Posted March 1, 2011 We're really sorry to report a delay on Taviana's public beta. We've been very busy making and tweaking some stuff, but believe me, it is worth waiting. We will report if anything. Beta is hopefully coming this month and if not I can promise it will come this year Now let me get a little bit off topic, if you don't mind, and wish you happy spring time :biggrin_o: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
