XxSheepDoggxX 10 Posted August 21, 2013 Am stationed on Okinawa at the moment and can't get over how perfect it would be for the arma verse. It's large but not massive has a LARGE military significance so bases etc wont look out of place. I'm stationed here for 3 more years so will have plenty of time for reference material etc. was very disappointed with stratis air base and how weak the defense was (thing isn't even fenced in!?). With Kadena being here and the island being what I would call perfect for arma with its multiple installations etc I've decided I am going to use this project to start learning how to map and model. Also being saddened by the hangars etc not being hardened shelters etc and how the community could really use a realistic air base for all sorts of missions and could also use assets such as that of military style buildings homes etc to use I'm thinking I will learn to map and improve the map as I learn with custom assets etc.. Obviously I am limited by opsec etc and this cant be a 1:1 scale like i would like but would love to put something really useful out there. Sadly as I said this is my first attempt at modding so if anyone can pm me tutorials etc on map making for the arma series that would be of great help or can meet up on TS to teach me some basics etc it would be much appreciated. Also if someone wants to pick up the project and teach me on the way I can provide all the source material you could ever need haha. Decided to post here as this will be a rather large project especially if going for the realism I would want there really are no Japanese architecture style building etc so all that would have to be modeled etc as we went and seems that I may need more of a team of people with good experience to really get the map and assets out there in full potential instead of a guy trying to learn hahaha Reguardless I still want to learn to map and eventually start modeling to improve my own maps with customs assets. Any help anyone can offer is appreciated what programs to use, tutorials/books to read anything I'm starting literally at scratch here. ---------- Post added at 09:25 ---------- Previous post was at 09:20 ---------- Also with recent events I believe there would be quite an interest in a map like this.
