Recommended Posts

hi! i want to edit sahrani island(remove a few objects/add a few objects permanently to the map/island)! or make my own version! how can i do that? i know its possible cause look at all the different versions(saralite island, southern sahrani, and the one with snow/winter...) of the original sahrani island! please help!

the ones you name are mainly replacements and done via

hex editing.

via Hex editing, likely extremely difficult, if not impossible to locate, and likely only do'able by trail and error to see what disappears / is replaced each time your edit.

Hi soldier2390

The ability to edit the original island may be locked so as to prevent creation of fake campaign, mission bugs or cheating. I have never tried to edit it so I never noticed it was locked.

Why not just create a new island?

You can maybe base it on the Sahrani height data which I think would get you close to what you seem to want.

Go to the BIS wiki terrain editing page the manuals and tools are all there.

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Terrain_Editing

1) Just download the Visitor 3

2) Read the section on Making Satellite Texture and Mask

3) Read the manual and other information linked on that page.

Though  as I say you will get far more kudos if you develop your own islands; just like these people have:

http://www.armedassault.info/index.p....islands

Sounds like the Real Time Editor listed on this page:

http://www.armedassault.info/index.p....ilities

does some of the things you want.

You should of course be reading the BIS wiki editing pages:

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Editing

And downloaded the other official tools

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Category:ArmA:_Official_Tools

as well as some of the ones in the ArmA Info site I listed above and any they may have missed will be on this page:

http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_Community_Tools

and this question should be in the editing section of the forums I think wink_o.gif

This has nothing to do with BI in general.
