hi major , it depends of the definition of your satmap vs your surface mask... , you will probably have some issue to convert your satmap to vector ( too many colors ) i don't know how it looks , i will just gave you my pipeline , to use shape in Terrain Processor, to populate with forest : 1. Select your surface mask and your forest floor in Photoshop ( i assume you have a layer for each color, otherwise Selection < color range < pick the forest color ) 2. when you have your selection go to Path < Convert Selection to Path. 3. Files < Export < Path to Adobe Ilustrator ( 30 days free trials on Adobe website) 4. In Adobe illustrator Export to .shp. 5. open your .shp in QGIS and export it to : esra shp files 6. Use it in Terrain processor. Xnam

thanks Bumgie ! we will fixed this mistake ! do you have a specific exemple, for me to understand , when it cause issues ? I just tried to create some objets from CUP in Eden Editor and used it mission, no issues... thanks Xnam

Thanks Foxhound and sonsalt6 !

Angel Island 1.3 is published on mediafire and SteamWorkshop ! Thx Xnam

hi Hate, it's working for me Rename your mod folder to @Porquerolles. maybe your computer language doesn't understand the "é" in "vétérans" thanks [V]Xnam

hi you can't , because you have limited variables to exlude Ambiant Life : A game Engine can't managed a new variable. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Animals:_Ambient_System Xnam

Roads has ID from 0 to 1681 ( vertices /or part, of the polylines). and I Have objects too , with Id from 0 to 1681. So it's not a real issue I supposed ? Thanks a for your help ! Xnam

thx for your feedback ! i just test it : Same for Altis and stratis, Don't use the Dev for now ;) . we will of course update our Island if, the next A3's update breake something ! yes it's the tree's shadows in the satmap which are too Blue, we will fixed it in the next update ! Thx. Xnam

Thx for your feedback chrys, it's really blue indeed ! we will think about changing the Color Balance for a nexrt update !

Hi Mauler ! The Steam version has already been updated on Steam ! Xnam

Hi SteveJA !, you're right, we are working on it, for the next update ! it' will be available soon ! Xnam

thx, checked, no, it's fine. i tried with an other island, and other .shp.. stil crashing ... I supposed i can import .shp from TB export shapes ! will install again arma3tools, the Dev branch update,maybe broke something.... ( and i tried of course to launch TP with the.exe in admin mod) EDIT : FOUND THE SOLUTION : .SHP from TB are not compatible with Terrain Processor !!! (Really ...) Open your .shp from TB in Qgis and export it again to .shp ( ESRI shapesfiles) Smoothing road works find ! ( only have to smooth the crossroads, when it's on a hilly area)

Great tools !!! digitalcenturion, did you just import your map.asc, (my map.asc = heightfield export from TB.) and import the roads from your roads.shp in the Heightmap: Road Integration ? when i do that, and press Run, Terrain processor just stop working and crash... ( i didn't change the slope option...ect).

Other bug : probability[] = {0.9,0.8,1.0};//0.5,0.5,0.5,1,cdt probability maximum has to be = 1 , yours is 0.9 + 0.8 + 1 = 2.7 I never used CfgSurfaceCharacters.hpp and CfgSurfaces.hpp. i put the config in the config.cpp, it avoids some bugs. Put this two class at the end of the config : class CfgSurfaces and after class CfgSurfaceCharacters. Xnam

hi, i think, you forgot a lot of steps, you should follow this tutorial : https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUiViqS-dLHruCtyGL_bHrYDgmgkNV2E5

Hi , At first : you forgot to name your cfgsurfaces and your CfgSurfaceCharacters with a prefix : panth_copehill_ if you keep the arma class name, it' can't works. ! it's well explained in tutorials, and threads about clutter !. Xnam

hum, for me it fixed the issue ! you probably have a config issue. Your pbo has to be here : @yourmap\Addons\yourmap.pbo You should try with pboproject ! you have a better log of the addon's compilation, maybe it will show you what is wrong with your config ! good luke !

Try : Addon source directory : P:\Jeff instead of P:\Jeff\Jeff_Flat Your map should appears in the editor.

Thanks again Foxhound ! Thanks Xon2 for your feedback ! you can find a mission in the MP mission folder !, we will maybe release some other mission after the summer holidays ! i will keep you inform ! Xnam

Angel has been Updated to 1.2 !! ( updated on Mediafire only for now ) Changelog updated. Day/night cycle fixed ! thx Xnam

Hi AngelWing Hum yes... f*** ! I used the Altis light config.... i will check this out ! Ok find the Issue... a typing error in the latitude config . latitude = -122= " under "south pole = no night.... For night : you just have to load the mission in December ( night all day long ) I will update the Terrain soon ! Sorry for this mistake ! Xnam

Wow !!! how could i missed this one !!!( the elevation issue on the dock, and the bridge... ) Thx for your feedbacks IISwede and LordJarhead ! i will fixed all this dirty work !

Thanks everyone ! It's a pond ! no fish, just rabbits doing snorkeling !

Thx LordJarhead ! Terrain match well with the JSRS3 ! Thx a lot ! good walk in the forest and grassy hill !
