Island Panthera for ArmA 2

Recommended Posts

I like the island... but there is a lot of issues with it. Texture placements (roads/airstrips) and invisible walls.

Hi Icebreakr, i love all your islands, but I like that (the island Panthera) had no desert area, is very ugly, and the change of sites,zones is very abrupt, Slovenia has no deserts like the Sahara ... L:eek:L ... you can make a version without the desert zone?....please? please?:o

I think the variation is what a lot of people like in Panthera, though. It isn't just the desert that doesn't fit in with Slovenia, either; there's tropical areas up north and south and the new areas in the north west feel far more equatorial than alpine.

Deserts next to lush areas aren't unusual in real geography, either; any topography that can rain shadow an area will create a desert next to a lush area, with a sharp transition.

EvenLease: invisible walls, where? No report of that in past 3 years. What is with roads/airstrips? Did you test latest v2.91?

Ok, went over the area that I thought had an invisible wall.. I'll keep testing that.

But,

I did take some screenshots... this is the latest 2.91.

Weird Water bug, Pretty sure its not supposed to be like this since road isnt dirt.

Ice, just encase you didnt see it. I posted a page back on the very bottom of some of the texture issues.

Woo, nice report EvenLease, I'm really grateful someone is doing an actual bug report! I've also recieved some critics from communities such as UO (statement: map is a pile of crap!)... so I've been thinking of abandoning my work for A2.

Guys like Styxx42 keep me going on, so thanks.

I'll try to fix the bugs, WickerMan - as stated before, the bridge model is a work of BIS and I dunno how to fix it so I can walk across it with the infantry - vehicles cause no problem, well except ATVs ;)

p.s. I'm quitting my day job on Feb 1, so I think I'll have more time for you guys. And that is *good news* ;)

Anybody saying that about your map's and work dont know what their talking about, only focus on the positive and ignore the negative;)

btw your work rocks and its been some off my favorite places in Arma1&2, cant wait to see what A3 will bring!

I honestly think your maps are great, of course at first they will need work... and over time they could use some work too if no one comes out and says what is and isnt wrong with it!

So, if I'll keep an eye out for more texture glitches, you just keep up the good work and dont let the buggy little cry babies bother you.

" a pile of crap " LOL

Don't know what UO is but don't let the Internet Admirals bring you down. Manners and politeness are commodities that appears to be dwindling as days go by.

Do not forget to make a version without the desert area, I need the new map it for my missions based in Chechnya. :)

hkpookie: United Operations. One guy, Impulse is particularly critical of my work as I can gather from their site.

It may not mean much but I play with a small group of friends and your maps are about all we use anymore. Every once in a while we will play on an official BI map, but we just prefer your maps over theirs. I truly hope to see you continue your work in A3.

Due to infantry-bug with bridges I'll replace them once again with some other BIS type :/

Will there be an update for ArmA2 or are you porting this to A3?

A2, of course.

I will not release any A3 content until proper modding tools appear. I also don't allow any 3rd party ports to A3 or use of my content.

IB: long time no see. Everything OK I hope.

Is your update to Lingor anywhere close to release?

I quit my regular job in February, taking a long needed break ;) good news is that we already play on Lingor v1.49 (pre-release 1.5 version) and so far no serious bugs found. So, release is close. I'm working on couple of A2 projects right now, so expect updates rolling out soon.

Not sure if you've seen what Sakura_Chan and .kju are up to...
