Island rating? so many of them....

Recommended Posts

Are there any sites that rates all the custom islands in categories. If there aren't I think it shounld be. And they should be put in categories so that we could see:

ahhhh... so that's the best jungle island

or:

ahhhh... so that's the best desert island

etc....

Asides from Tonal, the only really good map that has been released is East Border for the FDF Mod.

Indeed, since 1.95 (where BIS introduced the new terrain algorithms) I have been able to use Tonal on my "low end system" which is based on an AMD K6-2 500MHz processor.

You have to accpet that it wont look as pretty, and you wont be able to see as far, but it WILL run on slow pc's.

You have that crap of a machine?

I wonder how you can still play anything on it. Is it really impossible for you to get a decent PC? Today good PC are not that expensive anymore. I'm upgrading my machine 2-3 times a year to keep pace with the evolution.

So just being curious...what prevents you to get a up-to-date machine?

Thats my "low end system" that I use exclusively for low end testing. I got it about 4 years ago, and upgraded it to play OFP when it first came out smile_o.gif

My "high end system" (about 4 months old) which I use for everything bar "low end testing" is of very high spec (P4 3.26 GHz, 1 Gb DDR RAM, GeForce FX 5600 w/ 256 RAM etc)

Indeed, these are currently my favourite islands for ofp.

Nicely thought out, well detailed, and lots of areas for all different types of skirmishes.

Definately a MUST HAVE! biggrin_o.gif

IMO BIS should have put this island in a patch as well as the units. Add's diversity to the game.

Even though I'm biased, here's a couple recommended Islands that haven't been listed yet:

Kaliyuga's Kalighat Island:

http://www.everoncartel.com/news.htm (go to the downloads section)

Waterman's Skye Island:

http://www.freewebs.com/watermansofpsite/index.htm (go to the downloads section)

Other than that, I'd have to agree with the other suggestions already posted in this thread.
