fromz 2 Posted August 30, 2008 Sound effects is not my expertise, the others are my interest. Visitor3 is a landforms creat software. It Can creates a terrain smallest at 256 square meters and largest support of 16.77 million square kilometers in theory, but in practice, minimum area of 4,000 square meters, the largest about 160,000 square kilometers will be compatible. At present I only creat complete two islands, one called Taiwanlite, it has 31,700 square kilometers, another called Muses Islands, with 164,000 square meters. Yesterday, I would like to make a small test island for the development of new ArmA addons to load very fast, and it's a very smooth progress coming with me, about five hours, I have completed such a island: "Muses". The present islands Muses, is the rapid results yesterday, basically purpose to load faster, read faster, not bad scenery, a higher and smoother in-game frames. The island aim to load quickly, testing new addons, using new scripts, and something like that. But war ... like waypoints, have problems, too small. If a future time, I will creat CryENGINE2 version of Muses, that will be more scenery as well. Well, hope you like it. Small Muses. Installation: copy to your addon folder and link looks like D:\ArmA\arma.exe -nosplash -maxmem=512 -window -world=china -profiles=D:\ArmA -mod=DBE1;@FROMZ -world=china or -world=us will let you go in ArmA in 5-7 seconds, Fromz Muses will let you go in mission editor in 3-4 seconds, Load your new addons in 10-15 seconds That's mean "quickly". Included files: fromz_muses.pbo Key: This is a signed addon, the serverkey is included in this download.

miles teg 1 Posted August 30, 2008 Very futuristic looking! That would make for a good island for some kind of sci-fi mission. Chris G. aka-Miles Teg<GD> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel 0 Posted August 30, 2008 Could you alter the sat map to more closely match the grass colour? The bluey hue looks a bit odd at a distance. Great concept though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr burns 132 Posted August 30, 2008 Great work, keep it!  Reminds me of those palm & the world island stuff in Dubai edit: I dont know why, but despite the supposedly short loading times (rahmadi still loads faster) it lags my good pc even more than sahrani. Probably something wrong with the grid size? I cannot understand how such a smallass island can draw my rig down to 21 fps without even having any other units placed  Anyone else seeing strange stuttering that should´nt be there?

madine75 0 Posted August 31, 2008 I get bad lag with this map too. It looks great, and could be great for some small CQB stuff as well as cutscenes. I have a fairly old machine, but larger maps do not cause the same lag. I also wondered if there was supposed to be a toilet out in the open towards the south of the Island...

fromz 2 Posted August 31, 2008 Thanks all the mirror links. Quote[/b] ]Could you alter the sat map to more closely match the grass colour? The bluey hue looks a bit odd at a distance. Great concept though. I spent only 5 hours on this island, and the sat map are photoshoped, I have a lot of other works to do, If I have time in the future, I will update it. Quote[/b] ]I cannot understand how such a smallass island can draw my rig down to 21 fps without even having any other units placed Erm, I have a 8800GT and 7600GT and 6800GS, I test on these 3 different cards, and results are 30-60fps, 20-45fps and 15-35fps... for me 20fps is OK, ha. about the lag, big problem, I'll try to fix it.

A toilet? hahaha I'm sure I have placed one, expressly. search for it by yourself Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madine75 0 Posted August 31, 2008 A toilet? hahaha I'm sure I have placed one, expressly. search for it by yourself I found it.. That's why I was asking if it was meant to be there.. I'll wait for others to reveal it's location. My lips are sealed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
