Popular Islands?

[fer 21]

What islands are you producing missions for in A2?

Right now F2 only supports Chernarus by default. Although it's relatively easy to port to other islands, I'm planning an update which will include versions for all the most popular islands. So besides the two that ship with ArmA2, what islands are mission editors using today? Please share your thoughts here and I will consolidate into a single list the OP.

Islands List

- Japahto (http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=7838)

- Namalsk (http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=87834)

- Panthera (http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?t=86720)

- Rahmadi (CAA1)

- Sahrani (CAA1)

- South Sahrani (CAA1)

- United Sahrani (CAA1)

PS If you want to know about new F2 release via Twitter please feel free to follow me: @ferstaberinde

Note for moderators: Hopefully this doesn't count as a cross-post b/c I think a list of popular islands will be useful to other projects/framework-makers.

Hi Fer

I'm using currently Sumraks "Namalsk" Island as it is of high quality very detailed and I haven't encountered significantly flaws.

Island Panthera by IceBreakr another very detailed and amazing map got still some little issues which are about to be fixed if I'm not mistaken.

these are the main community released Islands that I'm using for the time being.

Cheers

CAA1's Sahrani, South Sahrani, (maybe) United Sahrani and Rahmadi.

Edit: not that I plan on using the framework to make missions.

Please add my Island Panthera v2.31 (will get released today).

Namalsk too,

since in my opinion it is one of the best islands for Arma2 so far.

Even it could still need some tweaking.. :)

but if you think of adding them to the f2 framework..

I personally think it is easy enough to change the name and the mission file..

(so maybe a tab for that in your wiki woul do the work).

Panthera :cool:

Althought it isn't that hard to do, it's still one more thing for a newbie mission maker to overcome. If F2 can help the person avoid that (at least until they want to make a mission on an island we don't yet support), then that's potentially one more mission maker NOT lost to the community.

Good Point :)

Updated the OP with a list based on submissions, but thought I'd see more names.

Hi

give it some time. ArmA II is still to fresh to have a lot of Islands at disposal which work without flaws and are actually a final release. Map or Island making is a really tough job and when you want to model one of a high quality standard than it takes an incredible amount of time to finish and release it, especially when you are modelling first class and detailed maps as Panthera or Namalsk which are really of a very high quality and can stand a comparision with all the official Islands. I dunno though how many of the Old OPP or Armed Assault Islands are working propperly in Arma II. Sahrani and the official Islands work in CAA1 pretty good. I'm sure there will be a lot of future releases it's just a matter of time. The game is still to fresh.

Stay tuned
