berghoff 11 Posted February 9, 2005 Greetings everyone. I'm working on my last Island called Homeland. Current status: Temperate Island: <s>100% done</s> Winter Island: <s>100% done</s> Desert Island: <s>100% done</s> Jungle Island: 70% done Textures: <s>100% done</s> Objects: 95% done Homeland consist of a fictional island group. Size of entire map is 512x512 (or 25x25km I guess?) and the island group will have a Desert/Jungle at the south, a Winter Island with many mountains at the North and a temperate island near the middle. It will have some custom made objects such as: Military signs, obstacle course objects, Road signs, vending machines, rocks, bushes and some trees. The ground textures will be 1024x1024, 2048x2048 were a lil over the top due file size (I've tried it). It will also have re-worked nogova and completely new textures for Desert and Winter. Homeland will use a lot of high quality addons including, AEF railway, BAS Tonal buildings, SEB Ilo, nearly all Mapfact objects, Finnish House pack and Kegetys Nogojev Winter. Credits The Idea: - Furia [sWAF] - For the idea to create a Home for our Squad (SeaWolves Armed Forces) - EMAN - For giving me ideas about MOUT and obstacles and how the Island should look. - Nightmare - For also giving ideas Helping to complete project: - Wilco - For Hi-res re-edited resistance textures BETA Testing Team: - The_Shadow - EMAN - Silent N Deadly Addon list: I was able to load the Island on 256mb ram so you should be fine with 512mb ram My Island pbo's: Brg_I1.pbo Texture and object pack -beta Brg_wI1.pbo Island files - Beta Brg_n.pbo Nature pack - Alpha Other great addons: AEF_train.pbo (11mb) AGS_build.pbo (7mb) AGS_port.pbo (3mb) AGS_inds.pbo (18mb) Baracken.pbo (2mb) New Version 1.5!

Silent N Deadly 0 Posted February 10, 2005 Great, great, I hope it is less laggy than newland, that was kinda laggy for me, er, kinda very laggy . But, looks great keep it up! Same here. Newland was really nice, and very well done but it was pretty laggy. Homeland looks great, lots of varity on 1 island with alot of cool stuff. If it isn't too laggy it will be wonderful.

The biggest town is on the last screenshot with industrial area and 2 railways. So It shouldn't be laggy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
