OChristie 0 Posted July 10, 2008 The objects are as followed: Lower Left-ish of the Map, small settlements dotted around the map, it was not meant to be a massivley populated map, sposed to be like the desert. If i eventually can do an airfield there will be one there!!! Ollie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icecold2510 0 Posted July 10, 2008 I see nothing either on it. I just see plain flat desert and a rock. EDIT:I saw one village. Â It's not plotted on the map. Are you going to plot it on the map for future versions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
opteryx 1562 Posted July 10, 2008 Umm it is 1024 x 1024 in Visitor 3 not sure in real life i am guessing a fair bit.In this new update there is populated areas and small settlements, the filename is: bigdesert.pbo Multiply your heightmap with the cell dimension to know how large your map is. ie. 1024px sq. x 10mCell = 10,24km sq. map.
