That's just... i can't find any words to describe it! AMAZING!! Really great so far. Now there are some dunes and the city looks completly different! Much better.

opteryx 1562 Posted October 8, 2007 *NEW VIDEO* Impressions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StryDa 0 Posted October 8, 2007 Very nice. Couldn't see any fps reduction looking at the video. Does it play well near the more denser build up areas? Anyway can't wait to have some close infantry fights there :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmarkwick 261 Posted October 8, 2007 Impressions? The only impression I can do is Roger Rabbit: "PlblblblblblblEASE" (release) Looks pretty fine mate. REALLY looking forward to it Needs more rubble & general misc items to give it some character, but it's going to be one of the most important maps in ArmA for sure.

opteryx 1562 Posted October 8, 2007 FPS was around 25/35 through most of the video. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bravo 6 0 Posted October 8, 2007 I think the island is nice.. big but too flat tough. Maybe more ruins would be nice to have in that map. Hope it doesn't lag much I wonder what error appeared at the end Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bravo 6 0 Posted October 8, 2007 sorry to mention the word "island", unfortunately is something we were used to it since OFP. Hope we can forget the "meaning of that word" soon. Though if it isn't an island this map will have infinitive flat ground.. Or will we reach an area with like a cliff or something, am i right? If yes, can you some thing about that?

Indoctrination through constantly repeated lies and faulty facts. Quote[/b] ]Though if it isn't an island this map will have infinitive flat ground.. Well the area where city lies is for the most part flat, this is for simpler construction. More complex terrain will be added in later version(s). Quote[/b] ]Or will we reach an area with like a cliff or something, am i right?If yes, can you some thing about that? Yes, once you reach the map border the terrain is extruded ad infinitum, however in this case where's the height map is very high, you'll encounter a sudden cliff formation, bellow that is the extruded landscape. -edit- Higher Resolution Video Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadow_Spyder 0 Posted October 10, 2007 Just curious if that new BI tools Suite thing that came out will fix the tool you needed to complete this map. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
opteryx 1562 Posted October 10, 2007 Hi all, just though I'd inform you about release. I've changed my mind for various reason and decided to hold an open beta, if all goes well and nothing unexpected happens I hope to release on Friday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

opteryx 1562 Posted October 10, 2007 Don't get too exited yet, there are some major quirks that needs fixing on this map such as roads being laid out with now working road tool, roads now are placed manually as objects which may interfere with AI pathfinding.

Shadow_Spyder 0 Posted October 10, 2007 Well, all I can do is hope for the best, and if something does go wrong, hope for a fix ASAP. I'm sure that if there are any problems, if you can't iron them out, someone on these forums will be able to help. Wish I knew anything about map making so I could help out. Well, GL with the map and I'm sure it'll all go good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
