W4lly63 82 Posted May 20, 2017 Hi, I'm working on a new map, Elba Island ... that's will be a realistic reproduction of this island located in Italy - Tyrrhenian Sea. A while ago, when I was young :-))) , I traveled all the streets of this island on a bike and so I decided to reproduce it based on my knowledge of the place and google map3d for the exact location of objects (houses, trees, walls ... .) For now I've finished the most boring part (leveling roads etc ..) and a small part of forest and houses. The style of houses and buildings is the same as altis and also the type of vegetation but Elba is much more vegetation, so we say similar to cherno in percentage .... I want to make a map that doesnt need cups or other addons .... a Vanilla Arma map ... As for the completion I will update in this thread but I assume it will not be before the end of 2017. Elba Buildings Style Map Size 32768x32768 Grid 8192 Cell 4 m Sat Image 32768px Resolution 1m/px Smooth Roads/Terrain [complete 98%] Objects Insertion [complete 5%] Some Screens but for now nothing of striking cuz just started :-)) The goal is to create an "abandoned" style like esseker style or similar maps :-)) 28 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gauroroth 5 Posted May 24, 2017 Nice, work looks really good. Funny I am currently working on my own Island Giglio which is basically next door to your island. Currently don't have the time to work on it though so it is nice to see someone else is making a map of an Italian island. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

john111 76 Posted May 31, 2017 How much stuff/objects do you plan to add to this before release? Any chance of a Beta before release? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any chance of a Beta before release? i think 5/6 million ... yea when completed 80% but i think not before end of 2017.... takes time...... to create banal things its easy, to have a good result - you also have to put some creativity ... in short, create something between reality and artistic ... and it is not easy and it takes time 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
