tpw 1808 Posted September 28, 2020 Loving the update, this map really is a triumph. One niggle: is there any chance of reworking the grass texture for the #CUP_CRSGrass1 surface? The turquoise texture really clashes with the darker green and dry grass. Here's the same texture working properly on Livonia: 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drdetroit 73 Posted September 29, 2020 Good day all, great map thanks for the good work! One of my all-time favs! One big issue I noticed is that the trees/forests don't spawn past, roughly, 1/4 mile or so (300ish meters) from the player. For example: If standing near the hangars at the south side of the main airport (located north/west on the map), the trees aren't spawning at the other side of the runway. I can see barren ground (no trees, shrubs at all...looks like satmap only) when looking to the next ridge line, no more than 1km away, when near Gorka or similar topography anywhere on the map. This is kind of a game breaker, so wondering if this is just me and my settings or is this issue a thing? Seems like a LOD issue or something. Thanks again and best regards! DrDetroit EDIT: I think I figured it out...seems to have been the ACE Visual Distance Limiter setting. Can't wait to try this map later w my Alive campaign (Ukraine Defense Forces and US Marsoc against Russian invasion) - should be epic with the upgraded map. Thanks again for the hard work CUP!

Alleged Accomplice 15 Posted October 21, 2020 Thanks to all who do this. I love editing on them, I don't/haven't published them in quite awhile but I still love doing it and the CUP maps are great to work with. I can always find what I'm looking for. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And the heightmap has been converted to a higher resolution in preparation for future updates. When you speak of increasing the height map resolution, do you mean that you have halved the cell size, and doubled the grid numbers? So instead of a 2048x2048 grid with a cell size of 7.5, its 4096x4096 with a cell size if 3.75m? Will the increased resolution come from interpolation? From a real topomap since chernarus is based on real terrain? Or artistic license when you want? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeastHunter 76 Posted December 11, 2020 Hey, the new update is epic and I'm looking forward for what to come. There's just something real annoying that breaks immersion, and it's clutter where no clutter belongs to. That's the current state. It's great, but this grass somehow destroys the ambiance. I edited it a bit with gimp. Maybe with some surfacemask work or concrete decals you could archieve sth like this. Or the school could look like this. This could be helpful in spots like these. Here, it would be cool if there was something in this Gateway, maybe a gate and something on the floor. And then there's this cool cementery here, but it looks meh with that tall grass. Don't know if it is supposed to be like that, but a short grass clutter object could be a huge advantage for many maps for places like this or parks etc. Tall grass is cool for wilderness and nature, but feels a bit mismatched in cities. Sadly, BI did no short grass. Nevertheless, thanks a lot for your great map, and Merry Christmas to all of you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's just something real annoying that breaks immersion, and it's clutter where no clutter belongs to. <snip> I understand your point about the grass clutter on roads, sidewalks and parking lots but it's not completely unrealistic. Certainly in a populated city/town with a properly functioning government, things such as that would be maintained, with the weeds removed, grass regularly cut and the cracks in pavement and concrete (that allow such growth), properly filled and repaired. However, in a poor country or poorly run city with limited resources, it's not uncommon to see grass and weeds growing where they don't belong. I see that sort of thing all the time here in my own state of GA in the US and ours is certainly not a poor country or state at all. I'm not disagreeing but just pointing out that such things can also be quite normal, especially in a poor or war torn country. I actually believe that such conditions may be what the team is trying to depict here. Alternately, for some maps that depict countries with such conditions, I would like to see many more signs of poor maintenance and neglect due to poverty or other circumstances. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JD Wang 311 Posted December 14, 2020 You can always throw down a grass cutter object in areas you think are truly bad. Not something that you'd do for the whole map though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
