theavonlady 2 Posted May 15, 2003 I asked the I44 team if they planned on putting out a modified WWII version of Everon, like their Sicily Island version of Malden. The answer was negative as they're working on another WWII island map. Anyone want to volunteer to produce WWII Everon? This is not an I44 endorsed idea, though they'll be happy for such community input. Looking at Sicily Island, these are what need to be changed: 1. Modern road signs must be removed. 2. Modern fences, especially around homes, need to be replaced with picket fences. 3. Modern structures, if any, should be replaced with older WWII era looking buildings. 4. I think the town names can remain the same, whereas on Sicily Island they had to be renamed to reflect Sicilian names. If so, then the signs with town names can all remain as well. Did I miss anything? Any volunteers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LowLevelFunctionary 0 Posted May 15, 2003 good idea avon. I think some of the smaller towns would need to disappear altogether. Oh and why just do Everon? why not Nogova? What i would like to see on some of these maps(especially Nogova) is a lot more vegetation, to represent the feeling of little or no infastructure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Garritos 0 Posted May 15, 2003 I for one think these types of conversion of the old maps are worthless.  not that we dont need decent WW2 era maps but the textures on those old maps are horrible (also the bushes and trees).  All of my WW2 missions will be on nogova until somebody releases a map with high resolution textures and resistance trees.  This is my personal opinion and I dont wanna discourage WW2 mapmaking, I just think they should be made for the current format of the game (resistance). ppl using older computers that can't take advantage of the extreme visual improvements of resistance may disagree  I just really hope I44 releases higher resolution terrain to go with their excellent units and vehicles.

CanadianTerror 0 Posted May 16, 2003 My poor Athalon 800 wont let me take advantage of anything fancy when it comes to hi-res textures So Everon would be just fine thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theavonlady 2 Posted May 16, 2003 I happen to like the old textures and playing WWII missions on Siciliy Island looks great. Converting Nogova would be great, too, but Everon is an easier task to begin with, IMO, and could be done very fast by someone with good island making experience. Again, any volunteers?

PFC_Mike 2 Posted May 16, 2003 I agree. the old CWC trees and textures always seem to make my comp lag in SP. Nogova runs fine at the same viewdistance/visul quality settings. And make some real farm fields! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
