Description:
These custom configs will add satellite photo in the editor menu and loading screens for each map. Further more there are configs for A3 Menu Intros and Grass for each map. If you want to use any of these configs with any of supported map, you will need to have AIA TP or AIA.

IMPORTANT! - Use only configs for the map you have, if you don't have one of the maps, move the pbo of the config you don't need to folder "opt".

Download:

or Google Drive

Download Collection all in one:



IMPORTANT! - If some author would have problem with the map included here I will immediately delete the config and map from the list on his request.

I also did config for CWR2 maps, but I have to remove it, because CWR team strictly prohibit use of this config with their mod in Arma3.
But I kept the code for anyone on my GitHub, so you can binarize it and use it for your personal use.

List of maps which should work great with AIA TP or AIA, but have not my configs yet:

Maps which don't work well in A3 with AIA TP / AIA and configs are not included:
- Carraigdubh (CTD) *Will not load to Map Screen, suspect corrupt file like Lingor
- Tarin Kot (CTD) *Will not load to Map Screen, suspect corrupt file like Lingor
- Gulf Of Aqaba (CTD) *suspect corrupted world file or building model

If you want config also for your favorite map which is not included here, request it here.
But not all A2 maps work well with AIA TP / AIA, some of them have CTD - Crash To Desktop problems etc.

My future plan is to make a list with all A2 maps which are working well with AIA TP and AIA and which are not.



TUTORIAL:
If you want to made your own sattelite picture, you can make it throught the editor with splendid camera in 4K resolution (guide how to set 4K resolution on NVIDIA). Once you have the screenshot you have to edit it in some graphic program, so it would have 2048x2048 resolution.

CHANGELOG:
v1.3.1
- fixed random roads in Caribou config
- 1 config removed due request by CWR team - CWR2 Islands - Everon, Malden, Kolgujev, Nogova
- 1 new config added - Everon, Malden, Kolgujev, Nogova

v1.3
- fixed error on Caribou
- deleted enviroment sounds on Fata, replaced with A3 ones
- replaced rain sound on Namalsk with A3 one
- 1 new config added - Everon, Malden, Kolgujev, Nogova

v1.2.2
- better compatibility with AIA TP / SA
- you can now use all configs at once (even if you don't have all maps)

v1.2.1
- fixed incompatibility issues

v1.2
- 7 new configs
- minor improvements
- added Arma 3 Grass for most maps

v1.1
- 5 new configs

v1.0
- first release

We have also "connected" these pages to your account on Armaholic.

When you have any questions already feel free to PM or email me!

[LykosMactire 298]

you might wanna remove Panthera from the list as icebreakr does not allow any use of his maps on A3

[evromalarkey 150]

@AngelWingGamingJacob I didn't know about that, however I think that it's entirely on people if they want to use the map in A3. And the config does not contain any of the data of the map, it's just a replacement config.

[PolyG 69]

He physically can't not allow it, as once you have it you can do anything you want for yourself so long as its not published to the public.

@Foxhound, @kecharles28 thanks for the mirrors!

[speedygonzales 15]

First thx, second how i can activate the map panthera withou CTD ?

When i`m loading the map in the editor CTD.

[evromalarkey 150]

Huh, you are right. I just discovered that when @smd_sahrani_a2_lite is loaded CTD on Panthera is not happening. I didn't notice it because I had all maps loaded, so there was no CTD for me on Panthera.

Not sure if I can do anything about it, just use @smd_sahrani_a2_lite with panthera and CTD should not happening. It's possible that there are some A2 files in sahrani which panthera is missing.

how about add FATA to the Fix list

its also awesome map.

[evromalarkey 150]

yeah I will add FATA to the list later, also with some other A2 maps. Maybe Podagorsk, Aliabad and Caribou. So also these maps should get awesome sattelite pictures!

Also A2 maps should work even better now with new AIA TP, so maybe no more crashing on Panthera, Isla Dula and Lingor. Will check that later.

[R0adki11 3949]

@AngelWingGamingJacob I didn't know about that, however I think that it's entirely on people if they want to use the map in A3. And the config does not contain any of the data of the map, it's just a replacement config.

I would still clarify with Icebreakr regarding the issue.

[evromalarkey 150]

@R0adki11 will do. But I don't see anything wrong here. As I said my configs does not contain any data of the map, it's just a replacement config with sattelite picture and new menu intros. But I will PM IceBreakr and ask him if he's fine with it.

EDIT: So I got the answer from IceBreakr and he is ok with it ;)

+1 Probably the best map created for A2 :)

Maybe Isola Di Capraia can get a little love too? :)

[evromalarkey 150]

These badboys are coming soon! The second line is coming to next AIA TP update :)

I will also make tutorial how to make these kind of pictures in high resolution.

There is also config for @mcn_aliabad in opt file, but there is unfortunately pond line bug with this map.

Edited August 26, 2014 by EvroMalarkey

[killshot 5]

Nice! And I already opened a ticket for the tractor.p3d error on his issue tracker.

[evromalarkey 150]

cool! I hope these missing texture or object errors got resolved in AIA TP eventually. What bothers me a lot more is waterline bug on some maps, I did also config for Aliabad but then I discovered that there is this nasty bug. :/

I hope that it will get resolved some day - http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=15579

[haleks 8212]

Nice! Never had the chance to try Caribou on Arma2, I guess it's time to do that on Arma3! Thanks!

[miketim 20]

Noice

So your contributing it to aia tp? Awesome sounds great

Also peep Hal, caribou is great especially on arma z3 , I did get purple sky on a3mp but I ignored it lol.

Caribou frontier is great for commander vs commander battles, or a rts thing cuz it has oil wells and factories, perfect for something about getting resources in a war time,

[evromalarkey 150]

Yeah there is purple sky with A3MP, I forgot about it. But it's working great with AIA TP without any issues :)

This may not be the right place to inquire but I'm having issue with Aliabad Region, with the error No Entry 'config.bin/Cfgworlds/MCN_Aliabad.sounds which does not allow me to play on Arma 3. I would inquire on their official thread but I don't wish to activate an old inactive thread. Thanks in advance for any assistance.
