Size of new islands

[Gorch 0]

I've read several times that OFP is capable of islands larger then the classic 12.8 km x 12.8 km.

What i want to know is how to create such big islands?

Does WrpEdit work for this?

If yes, how?

If no, is there any other way to do it?

im interested in knowing too..iagine if we had 4 times the size of everon...or 8 times. Imgaine what kind of campaigns we could have. And how airforce could realy then be useful..

OFP engine allows islands of bigger size. however, it comes at the cost of consuming more memory space.

But the question remains....how do you build them?

[deadsoldier 0]

with patience..or maybe internals can make us a better version or WRP editior..one where u can copy and paste. i thikn that would solve problem..or wait..and a road painter.

i think what would be best is to put all of the 3 main game islands on one big map, it might use a lot of memory, but for mid-high end users it would be great for things like MP with missions finally utilising the fast jets/C-130 or even some of the new boats

this way we can have a total war..tgat spans atleast 2 hours..where u can move about the OFP islands without being spotted the first 5 min of game and the battle starts.

i would like to see a full utilisation of all weopons and and unit in OFP. transportation and everything. To have a big war on more than one front..---- ---- ---- i dream too much.

hmm, no one knows how to do it?

I was wondering if there is a new site of the creators of WrpEdit? The old one doesn't seem to work anymore...

Anyway, i wasn't looking to do one real big island but for a map with lots of small islands (not bigger then .intro maybe). There should be quite a few airstrips and harbours, so all the new aircraft and ship addons could be used for some kind of "capture all the islands". Some of the islands could be connected by some sort of "oversea highway", maybe with custom modeled bridge tiles...

But the islands shouldn't be too detailed, a large view distance is more important in my oppinion.

@ deadsoldier: if you are looking for 2hours+ battles, look for MF CTI. Its played frequently on [WKK] or IM SWEC.

Well you won't get the new WRP edit as they have stopped the project.

Does anyone have the WRP file format available?

there is a documentation to wrp files on  the Operation Flashpoint Editing Center.

the sad thing is it only tells you about objects and textures and nothing about the terrain data  

and i am pretty shure that if the guy who made it had found out more about the terrain data he'd have published it...
