Too bad you weren't at the con, or you could've seen the upcoming new and improved Beta Terrain.  Imagine expanding the borders into a 512x512 map with the same canyons in the center.  It looked very :cool:

Refresh my memory...the beta map was the one with the airfield right in the middle of the map that was on a high plateau...you rolled north and could run straight down a cliff, right?  Had some canyons as well to the south if I remember correctly...

Been a while :)

The first beta map had 20K snow-covered mountains in the middle and was quite small IIRC.   The map with the 10K airbase in the middle was the map AH was using when it first went pay-for-play.

The one with the airfield in the center at 10k is called sfterr.  It was the first map to have vehicles.

Oops! :eek:


I miss the sfterr map.

It rocked.

I joined AH 1.03 so I don't think I've ever played on the Beta map then.  But I'm sure it rocked to.:)
