tupolov 520 Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) UPDATE! : 15th March 2011 - Beta Release (Private) UPDATE! : 7th March 2011 - Alpha Release Here's an update to the progress on my map (WIP)... Created a pretty cheesy (stick with it!) trailer to showcase the terrain and features. Enjoy! TU3dTwq2Wz0(For users who have youtube content blocked... Veoh Trailer) Size: 10kmx10km Based on: North West Qom Province, Iran (Map) Features: ~30 "locations" including 9 farms, 7 villages, 1 industrial area, 2 MSRs, road/path network, 4 military installations, 2 mines/quarries, 1 provincial villa estate, 1 airport, 1 airstrip, weapons site, research campus, petrol stations, radar installations, salt lake and a hidden nuclear enrichment facility ;) Details: The map is based on real life satellite and GIS data. Building/Object placement is based on real life sat imagery. Terrain: Desert Plains, Mountains, Salt Lake, Farm Land Required: CO/OA Addons: None (Iranian Forces Mod optional) Planned Release Date: Beta - late March 2011 Progress: 90% Complete Interested to hear from anyone willing to create a campaign/mission to include in the final map. Ideally any mission/campaign should not require additional addons - although a mission/campaign optionally utilising the Iranian Forces Mod would be great. Thanks to (so far!): the ARMA Community, Bushlurker, Shezan74, Mikero, Homer Johnson, Bad Benson, Old Bear, Gnat, ARMA 2 Map Making Skype Channel, YorT for the Iranian Forces Mod and of course Bohemia Interactive.

cannonouscrash 12 Posted February 17, 2011 Hey man, This sounds like a really promising map. Question though, How detailed are the mines? are they enterable or is the entrance thing thats at the mine in Feruz Abad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tupolov 520 Posted February 18, 2011 Thanks for the kinds comments! I'm still looking for more Beta testers and mission makers for the map. My feeling at the moment is that I want to private Beta the map, fix the bugs, get at least 2 missions ready for it before releasing as complete to the community. PM me if you would like access to the Beta release and are willing to provide bug reports/missions. You'll absolutely be credited when the map is released. Cheers, Tup Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tupolov 520 Posted February 22, 2011 Thanks for all the offers for beta testers and mission makers! That is really going to add to the quality of the map. I'm still looking for 1 or 2 more mission makers (to share the load!), so if you want early access to this map and are willing to create at least 1 mission then let me know. I'm looking for mission makers with MP experience. Current list of planned missions (let me know if you are willing to create one of them): 1. Special Forces raid to knock out AA sites (night mission using small team) 2. Fighter/Bomber mission to attack key sites/prepare for ground troops (mix of SF lazer targeting, air combat and bombing tasks) 3. Capture airfield using paratroopers (land in uninhabited salt lake area, heading west to capture airfield) 4. Mechanized Infantry assault on Nuclear Weapons facility (from airfield heading south to facility) 5. Search and destroy key research material/personnel hidden in locations through out farm land area to the south. (set of search/destroy tasks for SF/Ranger team) 6. Defend counter attack from Iranian forces (defend mission) 7. Extraction mission (heli rescue, LZ protection type tasks) PM me if you can, thanks! Tupolov.

tupolov 520 Posted March 8, 2011 Hey all, I've been working on getting a suitable version in game and have provided to a few trusted people an Alpha version of the Qom Province add-on. You can see the Alpha in game footage here: sdqQ0zEyMu8 Still looking for beta testers and mission makers. I have a healthy group, but more the merrier! Looking to have the Beta out sometime this weekend... Cheers, Tup Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
