(From [V]Wollfen)

The Kerama archipelago is a group of islands at the south-west of Japan, part of the Ryūkyū archipelago in the China Seas.
It is composed of 5 inhabiteds islands, of which only 3 have been taken into the map along with some of the lesser islands.

The map is fictionnal and contain elements which aren't part of the real islands.
The main objective being to offer a varied playground for our Team.

While the island has already reached a very high level of achievment and is completly playable, we are still working on adding more elements to it.

Enjoy!

Features:
5 islands
Around 22km²
2 large towns
A large airport
A smaller airfield
Many small villages and compounds
One zone for PvP only (underground submarine base)
Varied terrain types and landscapes
Many small clearings to make mission editing easier

Congrats for the release, very nice concept! Sadly AI doesn't cross bridges and got a lot problems recognizing roads and move around in vehicles in cities and stuck into a lot of different objects  :k:

Wonderful work once again. The rice paddies need some love but are lovely regardless. The ponds are showing up black at high altitudes.

 

The submarine base is interior lit at night by the lighthouse, in ways it shouldn't be. But what a base! There's an Ohio-class sub mod coming out soon, and it's a great place for a Splinter Cell-type mission.

 

Keep it up keep it up.

Hey, Thanks for the feedback. For many things we are just limited by what the engine offers. You have to do with what you're given!

But we'll look to improve those aspects whenever we find solutions to these problems.

Well, as far as I know, those are problems you'll always encounter in most maps. But yeah, we're working on improving it.

 

I've modded a Domination and other missions on the map though and didn't have that many problems.

Apart for the bridges, can you be more specific as to where you had problems?

Is this map @ALiVE ready - has it been indexed?  I know the current ALiVE Mod comes with an indexing module (not looked at it yet), just curious.  Island/s look great - cannot wait to download and explore.  Your work is very much appreciated!!

Nope, I've played with @Alive a bit, but haven't had time to really dive into it.

When that happens, I'll do it, but for now, I don't have the time to investigate it. Maybe someone else in the Team will do it.

you are awesome!

is it possible to add "angel island" as a landmass?

in the specops base, when you try to drive jets from the lower area to the upper area, there are some trees dangerously close to the taxiway

THX !

 

no, it's impossible because the gride of "angel island" is not the same :

 

Angel : gride of 5 meters

kerama : gride of 10 meters

 

I'm going to clean the taxiway, but be carefull, we have always a pb with the bridge: IA cant cross !....if community have a solution !!! ^^
