Jorgo32 4 Posted June 2, 2022 Curious to hear what maps people are working on. Is it a real place? Historical area? Size? I am working on the Golan heights, an area that saw heavy combat during one of the Arab- Israeli wars (valley of tears) 10Km x 10Km 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wyattmoon102 5 Posted June 2, 2022 - Real place? Yes. A place called winchester IL that I found while flying over google earth that was perfect for my wargame/world in conflict style map. Currently only about 15-20% of the map is filled in(roughly) . With alot of work to go especially with detail greebling. -Size 6x6km -Game modes not there yet but hoping to make it work with conflict. But the map should be huge for zombie modders. I might remake the map at some point if somebody decides to add hundreds of high fidelity american objects like farm stuff , and houses/buildings. Otherwise the weird modernist western euro designs will have to do. -Trivia This map is hand painted. Meaning instead of using masks to easily import the textures , its a blank slate that i am personally hand painting onto the google earth sat map you see in the first picture. This was done because i didnt know how to do the other ways , and was inexperienced. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do 3d modeling for my line of work so its not a huge stretch for me. I also know the Task Force Canada mod devs which can give me some solid advice. If there is enough interest I would definitely give it a shot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do hope someone makes an asset pack for north American buildings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ForestFighters 2 Posted June 3, 2022 Real Place: Block Island It is based on northern Block Island, which is in the state of Rhode Island. The geography is mostly the same, but I've added things that aren't there as the island is mostly just summer homes IRL. Size: It is a 7x7Km map, but a lot of that is just water. Historic Relevance: None Unless you count the Pequot War, in which 90 militia men burned down some native villages on the island, or a very brief occupation by the British navy during the war of 1812. Planned Game Modes: Zeus and Conquest Maybe will also have a couple Capture and Hold missions and a little short story mission. Images https://imgur.com/a/ZVlHJPy It is only the first pass, but I think it is coming along nicely https://imgur.com/a/9tRyvBX Progress (As of 6/2/22) I've gotten to about the red line on this heightmap detailed. https://imgur.com/a/fOwnb6L 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

X-FormG 1 Posted June 5, 2022 (edited) I've had my ups and downs with the terrain editor since a3 but as far as learning curves go, not horrible all things considered. I thought I'd learn how to do various things first and then move on to create the map I want. currently dealing with a bug atm that seems to prevent me from creating new terrains. https://feedback.bistudio.com/T165607 Spoiler Spoiler salisbury plain training area Couple of images of the test map Spoiler Spoiler Edited June 12, 2022 by X-FormG Added more images of map 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vad 12 Posted June 6, 2022 Just a small 1km x 1km to test the new features, Can only work on it for an hour or two before I get motion sickness, I think its accidentally changing the speed when I'm trying to zoom that disorientates my anticipations of movement. Currently fixing satmap then ill do more clutter. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reaper lok 82 Posted June 6, 2022 13 hours ago, Plantroots said: Yeah there is an issue with creating new terrains, i've started on two maps so far and wanted to start on a third one, but i couldn't make it without crashing the Tools, i think it will be fixed in the next update. Regarding the current bug being described: I did read the below text from a YouTube comments section that may help. I have not yet attempted the fix but it might help? Максим Гордеев 16 hours ago Hello guys! I hope all of you in this branch who still have that issue will get my reply. I had the same issue. Start with a blank world, create new terrain entity, do the "create new terrain" thing (terrain is invisible), then delete terrain entity and immediately revert this step. Terrain should appear and you'll be able to save the world. P. S. I appologize to SepticFalcon for effectively spamming with solution in comments but I just really want to help everyone because I understand their frustration too well. I have 59 crash dumps as a reminder after all my attempts to get rid of that nasty issue. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
