quicksand 0 Posted April 5, 2004 I am speachless.This is the best island ever!It makes you wonder is this Operation Flashpoint? The texture and modelling work is fantastic so congratulatios to Jean Cristophe! And has anyone noticed the special thing about the new buildings?They have no clipping issues that I can see so they`re gonna be great in Multiplayer for urban combat.I`m off to play some more,can`t wait for some missions and campaigns on this wonderfull map Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miles teg 1 Posted April 5, 2004 Definitely the top WWII map. I look forward to fighting many intense battles on this map. Nice towns for urban combat...lovely open fields for massive tank battles. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bald_Maggot 0 Posted April 5, 2004 this island is AMAZING!! A top quality island that totally changes the way that you look at Flashpoint. Top marks For me the best part of it is the fact that the enemy AI cannot see you in the long grass!! Excellent work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr burns 132 Posted April 5, 2004 I am speachless.This is the best island ever!It makes you wonder is this Operation Flashpoint? indeed it´s one of the best islands i´ve seen yet. showed the normandy beta with some added i44 grass to a friend of mine who was absent from ofp for only 4 months and his first words were: "this isn´t flashpoint !"  .. though he had seen me starting it up and whatelse   great work, thanks Jean Christophe  edit: also fine to see that it works with fatwombats textures now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MEDICUS 0 Posted April 5, 2004 We just tryed to start a small MP-mission on Normandie, with the result that the server crashed  We got this error-message: Invalid texture aspect ratio (8x256) Any idea? Tested it on two different servers (both Linux). Mfg MEDICUS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MLF 0 Posted April 5, 2004 Very Beta release'sih lots of mislined textures, walls flip when you hit them, also alot of barren spaces eg no vegitation what so ever, also hedge rows can be knocked over which imho should not be you should be able to move through them without knocking them over, also roads lead to nowhere.

freddern 0 Posted April 5, 2004 Nice indeed. Have been waiting for this one for a looong time. Just damned sad I don't have OFP installed right now. Looks good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quicksand 0 Posted April 5, 2004 Some issues&suggestions -If you try to run over some of the trees they will get the cardbox effect and not fall over as they are supposed to -The buildings are indestructable.What would be trully great is if he in a future version make damaged version of his buildings and use a script to replace the normal ones when destroyed, -Omaha beach should deffinetly be bigger. -Hope to see some new road textures in a future version -A menu cutscene In any case still a great realese.This guy has alot of talent.

Sgt. Stryker 0 Posted April 5, 2004 stills seems to clean and "disney like" for me. And you think theres any way we can get a "big" city in there? maybe mix in a few BIS picket fences, the inv44 grass, new farmland models. But wow one thing I LOVED was your rivers and coast lines, it has the effect all islabd makers should use, a gradual change from sand to grass, yummy. I like your vegitation and fields I think the cities are the only things that need work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrZig 0 Posted April 5, 2004 The fields arn't really "colored" like they should be.. Like they arn't really bright yellow or anything when your flying, its all green. And the whole islands seems to be a little small.. But other then those, superb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-IT-Q- 0 Posted April 6, 2004 -The buildings are indestructable.What would be trully great is if he in a future version make damaged version of his buildings plz dont change it. its the far best way he could have done - NO MORE CLIPPING with destroyed bulidings!
