thebuckfastwine 1230 Posted August 28, 2018 Welcome to Glasgow, Scotland. This a project very close to my heart I spent many a happy day in and around the area when I was young and still visit to this day the area is BAE systems on the river Clyde, Govan and the Scoutson area and supports many hard-working families throughout the area. Section20 will be helping me along the way he will be working on the Lesmuir road area, I hope everyone can enjoy my great city of Glasgow as a world first of modern-day Glasgow in a computer game. Big thanks goes out to Jay crowe and Karel Mořický for picking up on Glasgow before it became an official project. Now to the pictures. https://twitter.com/thebuckfastwine https://twitter.com/BohemiaInteract https://twitter.com/Arma3official Real world location. https://www.google.co.uk/maps/@55.8826681,-4.3638036,3a,75y,205.06h,88.2t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1scNN6c3KzdYSr_FJ5qHQg8A!2e0!7i13312!8i6656 30 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LCpl -Ret- Tree 52 Posted August 28, 2018 The map looks great. I just wanted to know how big the area is and what the mod dependency's are? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thebuckfastwine 1230 Posted August 28, 2018 I'll throw up a picture of how big it will be later on, it uses the same mods as my Bohemia Interactive Studios remake, will post a list of mods later on, and Thanks 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir BadNade 25 Posted August 28, 2018 This looks amazing. Something you don't see very often in Arma so a great addition. Not to mention that those ships just look amazing in the docks. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thebuckfastwine 1230 Posted August 28, 2018 Thanks, I watched those ships being launched and worked on at the BAE systems docks they are the Batch 2 River-class OPVs class for the royal navy. they are from the excellent Brazilian armed forces mod. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EO 11277 Posted August 28, 2018 Just spectacular! The finer details are very accurate, possibly the first map I won't get lost in. If I had one suggestion, build the Crane....the skyline's not the same without it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thebuckfastwine 1230 Posted August 28, 2018 Thanks, You know I was thinking about that crane too and was torn about adding it or not cause its gone now in real life it was such an iconic thing for the area as a whole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EO 11277 Posted August 28, 2018 1 minute ago, thebuckfastwine said: its gone now One of the worst decisions made by any local authority....ever. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thebuckfastwine 1230 Posted August 28, 2018 Indeed it was, now they have two stupid little dinky Cranes now and ruined the landscape of Glasgow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
domokun 515 Posted August 28, 2018 Looks great mate. But wouldn't it look more realistic with EO's Sullen Skies mod? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thebuckfastwine 1230 Posted August 28, 2018 Thanks, and yes it would but I'm saving EO's super fantastic Sullen skies for a traditional Scottish cloudy murky day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vvalerie2 48 Posted August 28, 2018 One of my favourite European cities for Arma! You’ve managed to capture the unique Glasgow atmosphere with some simple and effective modelling choises. Really great work. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
section 20 458 Posted August 28, 2018 Nicely done Bucky. The work done by Thebuckfastwine is beyond amazing. The pictures really don't do it justice. The area around the docks had me full on de ja vu to a real world location. The city itself will be big, like mahoosive big and you'll be wanting to hail a virtual taxi to get about the place. When you add in some grey skies and rain it could just be like the real city. There is a lot of work ahead for us, especially as we're going for as close a match to the reality as we can get, using the assets available. Working on this has had me gain a whole new appreciation for the map makers of the Armaverse. I doff my hat to you all. I'll help keeping this topic updated as well, with pics as we go along. I'm working on the Anniesland Rd/Lesmuir drive area for anyone with a bit of local knowledge. And one of my favourite things to do, is make gardens. But it does make me feel awkard, as I sneak about everyones back gardens like some youngter playing Commando. (A scottish game involving running through peoples back gardens, jumping fences and avoiding washing lines and generally being a wee naff ) We'll try and post regular updates and keep everyone up to date with whats going down in G town. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flinty 454 Posted August 29, 2018 Damn it's really crazy how you get so much detail into this stuff, I think it's fair to say you've got a bit of an eye for this stuff :P But I mean... Glasgow? Jokes 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
