Personally this map gas given us more numerous "good fights" then any other map in rotation,  yes I'd like the radar fixed but even with the glitch it's the best map in rotation.  IMO

I have yet to fly on my own map so have no opinion to offer on how enjoyable i find it.

i heard the radar bars are grey or something this was not a problem when i submitted the map to htc a while back. i bleive its a bug that showed up when htc switch the city setup on it.

htc changed the city setup and removed the strats from general attack putting them so far in the back of the map which i would have lined them up in a row form the original city position to the hq to give a slot for bombers to run and fighter cap to defend.

the map was hand detailed in terms of land contour and terrain tile patterns. hull down positions made in almost all areas where vehicle combat spawns are etc. rivers lakes all hand done... blah blah blah thousands of hours maybe who knows was a lot of detail work put into it hope its fun for anyone using it.

Fester the map layout is good. The colors are off on my machine though - the sea is mud color and all darbars are gray.

I am not the spokesperson for ghi, however I do believe he not only has ESP, but ESPN and ESPN2.

He also has 30 pack abs and is a tornado magnet on I-30 in Arkansas between Texarkana and Little Rock.  His big rig has a HUGE orange bullseye on it.


(***SERIOUSLY:  I pray for ghi when he is on the road in states that have NO drivers ed. ice/salt snow weather trucks/plows/uneducated knuckleheads on AR roads.  BE SAFE, my brother!!***)

ghi,

You had no problem finding my Jug with your jet on that map  :)

I'll take FesterMa any day weekend or not (darbar fixed or not) over no new map additions.  It is unfortunate that dar bar is all the same color, but it is easy to figure out where the bad guys are as usual.

In fact, we just had a blast Fester, playing with your designed center airfield vs. vbase scrimmage.  It wasn't until I flew some bombers in at altitude that I notice the detail on how great the switchback mountain roads were realistically placed and blended.  They look more like engineers took the time to build the roads, instead of the mule trails that you see on older terrains.

So, I hope that you take the time to read about, the "fun" nuances that were added with this map design and then actually try the map again.  I believe that you will have to agree that the activity level on this map is up due to shorter distances to combat.

Even with all the issues it has, this is still the best map in rotation --  IMO.

Agree with Ghi  - please try to fix the bugs.... :old:

Fights were just fine this weekend. 

Dar bar colors were no issue as the HQ was down most of the time anyway.  :old:

True, but it wasn't really an issue for me.  I was able to find bad guys....just took a bit longer.
