serjames 357 Posted September 8, 2014 I asked the same question. And the answer was it can do both, but is designed I think more for Terrain builders. I.e. for permenant placement. I understand it can generate a data file that can be imported into TB to help automate the Placement of objects.... Now if I can only get that far with my own little Terrain experiment then this will be VERY VERY useful. SJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SJ Awesome, so now I'm curious if you will be able to export a map directly from this mod, into its own folder so its ready for use. That would make map making alot more available for people with less modding experience, meaning we could see a flux of map creating because this would make it readily available to the public. I hope that's the case, I would love something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
serjames 357 Posted September 8, 2014 lol no I think we're still stuck with trying to use TB..... however there are some pretty nice turorials out there... You just need to either pay a fortune to use Global Mapper or figure it out using another set of software, which is what I'm learning now. QGIS + Some other clever software...

silola 1087 Posted September 8, 2014 Hi, I just have a few questions about X-Cam.1: Is it for creating maps, like exporting them into their own mod so they are playable in game? 2: Or is it just for placing objects and units in game for a mission? 1: Is it for creating maps, like exporting them into their own mod so they are playable in game? >>>>> YES 2: Or is it just for placing objects in game for a mission? >>>>>> YES (but no units) [/img] [/img] [/img] [/img] [/img] [/img] [/img] [/img] Greeting Silola Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miketim 20 Posted September 9, 2014 Wow, wow.... Did I mention ωՕω!!! :) Nice detailed junkyard thingy, good use of those bar things on top Does this map have any particular setting, or is it more like a tech demo/ generic map or whatever you want to make it?

Yes, it's more like a demo map and play ground to getting warm with the X-Cam :) Here is also a first video, but with not the best quality and slightly stuttering ...

daringd 2 Posted September 11, 2014 Good work there sir! Does it work with objects set up for snapping? I'm really thinking this might be the way to go forward with the terrain I'm working on right now. I never thought I would see the day that we had something WYSIWYG for object placement and didn't have to deal with that bloody great white cube thing in buldozer...

meshcarver 12 Posted September 12, 2014 I would really appreciate a YES or NO answer to this: Once this is released, would X-CAM be the way to go with creating new maps? Either way, it is bloody impressive what you have going on here... I've just got my fingers crossed it can be used in some degree to populate maps with everything from trees to buildings... :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
warden_1 1070 Posted September 12, 2014 Very impressive town setting Silola, I am curious where some of these buildings are coming from? Specifically the ones in the last photo on platforms. Did you make these are are they hidden away in Arma 3 or from a community object mod? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainAzimuth 714 Posted September 12, 2014 Interesting map. Looks amazing. with those towns, it would be so amazing if they had Canals. That'd look really awesome, and it hasn't been done. Great work, i can't wait to test out this map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallujahMedic -FM- 867 Posted September 13, 2014 Amazing! Its not often that I dont have much else to say, but this is one of those times. I second the canals idea, just maybe not too overdone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
