Hi RoF, the Terrain builder configurator generate a link to a p:\buldozer.exe and when I launch buldozer it locks. If I choose "use .exe in arma directory" I get error 86. What do you suggest? Thanks Frank

Please bear in mind that nature objects are loaded even at high distance. Use cluttering, whenever possible, to improve your performance. You can set up clutter to be loaded only at a short distance. This will make your island having a better FPS. Frank

Hi guys, I made up a very small and detailed map. It si Linosa Island. http://makearmanotwar.com/entry/CIGKtCsdzK It has not been very lucky with contest even though it is the highest detailed map ever made (as far as I know). I think it is suitable for CQB and very easy to find hideaways, make up ambushes and son on in a close space (2.5 km x 2,5 km). It is areal island in Sicily - Italy. Hope you'll enjoy it!

Maybe low resolution sat. Check it out.

Hi Para, i made some testing but gave up. Maybe we could try together testing that feature. If interested contact me via pm. Bye, Frank

Hi guys, Today there was an update of Arma Tools Buldozer is no longer working for me does anyone had same problem? 13:35:45: Failed to open an external application! - following line: P:\Buldozer.exe -buldozer -window -exThreads=0 -mod= -noAsserts -nologs -profiles=P:\Buldozer -cfg=P:\Buldozer\Buldozer.cfg -name=Buldozer -connect=pipe\30392,8EDB 13:35:45: Buldozer interface - BuldozerEnvelope.cpp void CBuldozerEnvelope::Start(void) Failure occured during buldozer command line execution. "P:\Buldozer.exe -buldozer -window -exThreads=0 -mod= -noAsserts -nologs -profiles=P:\Buldozer -cfg=P:\Buldozer\Buldozer.cfg -name=Buldozer -connect=pipe\30392,8EDB" Please update configuration manually. Thanks Frank

Hi guys, arma3p fixed the problem. I had to run it twice. It also occured the p drive needed to be remapped. At the end it was an "Happy End", thanks to Mikero tools. Thanks for all your replies. Frank.

Hi EgilSandfeld, some debugging questions: 1) can you see the objects with buldozer for Arma3? 2) Did you try loading MOD All in Arma? 3) otherwise to point 2) put pbo containing object (plants etc.. ) in the same directory of the addon of your Island. Ciao, Frank

Well done! We were working on it! We are an italian team. Could you interested in cooperating in a larger project? Frank www.digitalizedworld.com

Hi Barney, we are starting a study group on this theme. Do you want to join us and share knowledge (we can help you setting the p drive but we we need a blender expert). Ciao, Frank

HI guys, I'm experiencing problems with Object Bulder. I double checked everything but with no result. This is the error message https://www.dropbox.com/s/4g53s2h49uoqnr9/error.png and this is my configuration https://www.dropbox.com/s/ueh2m2gxuruk025/config.png Could anybody help with solution? Thanks, Frank

Hi Fitzee, did you find a solution? thanks, Frank

Hi, I would like to convert my map "Pantelleria" made for Arma 2 into Arma 3 format. For that scope I have prepared a new set of config files config.cpp configSurfacecharacters cfgClutter cfgSurfaces and have reimported sat map and mask. I can get a new map with a3 objects. The problem is replacing A2 object with A3 (houses, roards, etc.. ) maintening the right orientation and position. Has anyone found an efficient solution? Thanks, Frank

Hi Hotzenplotz, I plan to use only arma 3 objects. In any case, if you need to use arma 2 houses you can put the proper pbo in the addon folder of your island. If you are using standard arma 2 object you can also use this useful mod. http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=23863 Hope this will help! Franco

It is also very interesting for the sea underwater and the fauna. Here we are an eventual inspiration for a Project Logo and Mascotte ;)

I will do as per your suggestion and I will replace objects in the txt file of exported objects. Instead of proceeding replacing object by object I though to create a small db that makes the replacements and after that generate a new file of objects (with bew definitions) to be imported in Visitor3. The advantage of doing this way is that if you are not satisfied with the final result you can quickly have a new file just changing some rules. I just need to create a double entry file to specify changement rules. I thought that someone could have maybe converted old p3ds into a3 ones( For example b_ficus exists an a2 version and a a3) and maybe mapped this convertion.... In any case starting from your template is very easy. I'll do it myself this way. Thanks a lot for your suggestions. :D

Thanks ZGM, It is very simple and effective. I will create a DB with a conversion tool that will change old classnames into new ones and gives a txt file as output. Do you know wether someone has created a similar double entries list? It would save time and work. Thanks a lot, Frank

Hi ZGM, I'm interested in coworking in a terrain editing project. I also would like to contribute with giving my suggestion about location. I've been on holidays near CHIUSA in Italy. I found ii interesting for military scenarios. here we are som images Frank

That's very interesting. I will check it and replace it. In any case it seems there are no consequences. I can binarize and get a good pbo. Thanks for your suggestion. Frank

Hi guys, I did the same as Soldier2390 and got the same error Arma 2 No entry 'config.bin.cfgBuldozer' I've being trying for days without fixing the problem.... Frank

How did you calculate it? Thanks, Frank

Does anybody know a way to make a river? Thanks, Frank

Lappihuan, I'm very intersted. how can I abstract gas particle? Thanks.

we did a bridge with rocks. see here It is very important to use proper (solid) rocks and avoiding to increase too much the rock size. ---------- Post added at 12:33 ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 ----------
