Looks fantastic!!!

Can't wait till you're done.  What sort of topography is in the map?

map looks great both you and croduh do some good work.

It would be nice to get a map like that in the main arena one part winter/spring effect and one part summer,with another part desert.

Oh if onlt AH would accept custom maps like that if they didnt hurt the frame rate much.

After this one is done I'm going to bust out a desert one.  This map is 256x256 because I wanted to try out Machnix's Tilesetter program.  Future maps will be 128x128 mi. square.  Yoss, the topography of this one is mainly rolling hills with some small, map maker friendly mountain ranges.  Here's a random pic:



I may leave out the custom airfield til next map, because the file size for this one is keeps growing.  It's at 22 megs as of now, with only a few fields laid.  I'm leaving the city in.  I'm also debating a harbor w/ 30+ ships just begging to be sunk(sank?).  Maybe that would be best for a map all its own.  I'm just trying to make some maps where a variety of mission types can be flown.  We'll see how this first one goes then go from there.

I know it must be a huge amount of work, but those ports and airfields would be sooo cool!!

That terrain looks brilliant btw!!  Also, what plane is that?

As stated though, you would need to have a stationary CV with wind set...

I meant mission maker friendly. ;)


I've decided to put a decently sized mountain range between the two terrain schemes so that they won't be visible to each other (unless your way up there), giving us basically two maps in one to play with.
