Clafghan Map 20x20 Beta Release

Recommended Posts

You could've at least posted what the issue is

Saying that it doesn't work on "dedicated server" (which kinda means it works everywhere else?) and then saying that it's "breaking missions" is not very descriptive.

If anything that's the issue with your dedi server setup

I don't think it's a good idea to shit-can Minimalaco's topic with other addon discussion, so let me sum it up:

- we had some major issues with addons mentioned above and it wasn't "our dedi setup" or whatever; everything was great until Baghdad with Opx Objects arrived (it was running ok on the vanilla A2, I mean without Arrowhead)

- about what we've encountered:

a) we was unable to play any mission on the baghdad map (map was useless on dedi)

b) planting stuff in mission.sqm during editing (typical)

c) various other anomalies, which I don't remember but I do remember everyone was like O_O when these occured. As I said we're not new in Flashpoint & ArmA world so we thought we know what could happen... and that was something else. One of the things: people had random problems with joining the server even tho they had the right addons (it said they lack opx_misc, which was there), plus random epic error during one or two missions... I don't remember, sadly.

- it was OA v1.54. Maybe something changed after newer patches...

- ...and if Minimalaco says his map is running good on his dedi, what else do we need?

So, sorry for all the unnecessary fuss. And hey, I can't wait to test the map :)

Nice indeed.

I cant really speak for the OPX debate but as long as I can play SP im fine :) Well, I hope that gets resolved in some way.

Anyway .. that's looking real nice. Its about time we had some green zone balance around here. South of Zargabad was a nice place,

so be so anything that is south of Zarg looking OPX map esq green zone fuelled goodness is a blessing in my book :)

Looking fantastic mate!! can i just say though imo i wouldnt have trees on the mountains because in afghanistan there isnt any trees other than in the greenzone. put rocks and shrubs on the mountains to give it more of an afghan feel. and is there going to be a river running though the middle of the green zone aswell?

By the way, you should watch out for the pesky 100kb limit. :)

Yes, the hills will have rocks, more vegetation, villages, roads, snow, roads for the infantry and more.

and yes, in the green zone there is a river.

This looks great one question though, does this area have a airfield? Oh and also if you are interested in another project you could make Kandahar with the large city and military airfield and possibly even parts of the Helmand Province. Can't wait for the release :)

very nice! and please keep the hills with vegetation. as far as i know there are places like that in astan in the north east for example.

btw be careful about repetition. i spotted some doubled garbage object in one of the pics.

and no i'm not working on helmand province. my area is located in the uruzgan province and in that the shahidi hassas district.

for clarification

Hi fellows!!!

Actually we are dealing with world tools tests (thank you Shezan!!!)... IMHO these pics are getting close to our goal...

There is a lot of work ahead but at this time we are very satisfied with the results...

Last night Mini told me he was going into mountains for about two weeks to build some FOBs...

I am in charge of everything related to non placing objects stuff... masks, heights, sat pics, textures, airports, config, etc... and I can not wait to see this job done...

Mini is doing a beautiful work with roads and objects placement and I couldn't be more satisfied with our effort!!!

mmm and to get proper credit I am uploading some pics I took a few moments ago with the last version of our WT mask...

Proved me wrong mate!! haha but i was talking about the helmand zone not korengal valley, and is this map going to look like helmand province a little bit with lots of green zone?

Yup.

If you look closer you'll find a lot of trees down there...

We are doing a more freely looking version... in fact, Mini did not like Pech river Valley as it is according to real DEMs when I made this elevation for him about six months ago...

So I had to tweak it a bit, getting wider valleys and not so heavy climbing slopes cause choppers can't afford it no matter how good pilot you might be... (btw I really like the real stuff as it is... well but that's my particular view)

Cheers!
