Just tried it yesterday with FSF Ennemies ( http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?178138-FSF-Enemies-(EUP) ): it's just gorgeous !!

Thanks for you great work !!!

One quick question: the previous map was pja305 and this one is pja307, so what is pja306 ? ;)

[makhno 166]

pja306 will be released soon :)

[1212PDMCDMPPM 200]

pja306 will be released soon :)

Great !!! :)

Do you live in a special dimension where days are longer than 24h ? ;)

[Gruman 122]

Loving the map. I love the vegetation in the desert. Reminds me of Aiktalik and ToraBora somehow. :)

Some roads and paths would be great between the villages

Best regards

Yeah, I think some real roads at least in/on or around the millitary bases would be cool, for quickly moving somthing like tanks or artillery to another part if you were doing base defense.

I am really liking those oil rigs. I think the villages should have some mosques though, it is supposed to be like Saudi Arabia right? If you know that kind of squarish mosque building,

its one of the niceest OA buildings in terms of quailty, there is one that is kind of rectangular with pillars in the front, and another smaller one to go with it that is squareish with a little dome on top, maybe place a few of those in some villages, or even one of those big Zargabad mosques with some walled fort type thing around it, I heard that Dariyah is known for its medevial arab forts or somthing.

Nice work.

[jcae2798 132]

I agree, i know you mention the roads may or may not be implemented but i would at least like to see some dirt roads please? Thanks again

[thoosequa 10]

Any chance you would release this mod without dependency of ArmA 3 MP, so you include the files you need for the buildings in the addon?

[pulstar 55]

I also wonder when A3-specific maps would be the norm (without A3MP the maps would look like Greek islands!). You tend to lament the lack of variety on the landscapes and structures. Looking at budget games like Sniper Ghost Warrior it has superior urban design. Maybe in Arma 5 map designers will have more interesting assets to work with :p

So, where exactly is this map based in? It looks middle east, and then there is jungles, lol.

[Sgt.Spoetnik 10]

love your work,great job on this map, how about mayby updating your other maps (koplic) but still epic job to give us more maps to fight on. anyway keep them coming ;)

So, where exactly is this map based in? It looks middle east, and then there is jungles, lol.

Google tells me it's (24.7333° N, 46.5756° E), but it looks more like the desert(s) of the Maghreb, but with more orange in them.

[makhno 166]

The area i used for the elevations data, and the satelite image is west of Dariyah (Saoudi Arabia). The town of Dariyah would be just off map, east.

In reality it's an almost completely barren area ( So it looks on the photos).

But it would be just no fun to play with the blind AI we have in A3.

The aim is to have a desertic themed environment that can represent a variety of places, and firstly that is interesting to play. Not to model precisely a real area.

[makhno 166]

I've been working on the cnfig this week end (on N'ziwasogo, cause I'm curently replacing A2 street lanps withe A3 ones on that terrain) and indeed, taking Altis's config File as reference, there's a big difference in lighting compared to the current ones.

I'll do the same for Dariyah asap.

[kremator 1064]

Thanks for doing this updating Makhno. You are certainly talented at putting a detailed map together.

[tpw 2314]

Awesome news about the lighting config for this and N'ziwasago Makhno, can't wait to play decent night missions on these great maps.

[pd3 25]

Some areas remind me of Far Cry 2.

I'm excited to see how it plays.

[makhno 166]

Thanks Makhno, great map, nice place for use mod as African Conflict or Caf Agressors Pirates. I think map its amazing but orange of sand at desert places its too striking. I think its better use light brown for these texture. I confirm night vision works properly now.

[1212PDMCDMPPM 200]

Thanks Makhno, great map, nice place for use mod as African Conflict or Caf Agressors Pirates.

ESUSSanchez, shall I advise you to test the FSF Ennemies mod. Produced by the same clan, it will give you hispanic, asian and african flavoured OPFOR.
