Title: Small yet detailed island
Post by: GI-YO on 02 Apr 2005, 18:02:46
As the name states I would think that a small island addon say 1km x 1km in size with loads of detail, ditches, streams, hills, houses. I suggest as I have recently read a few war books and the authors regulary talk about holding a particular ditch, or fighting for control of a small but tactically significant hill. Currently the OFP maps are large with not alot of detail but a small detailed island addon would make for some good missions. Thanks for reading.

theres this one island I have, it has trenches and is really detailed and small

but if you want to play on the island you need to set viewdistance to 200 and put a bunch of fog on so it wont lag

WOW! That's a great little map you've got there. I had no idea OFP could have such detailed terrain... I wonder why no one has done that before? The map didn't run too bad on my computer (which isn't that good of a comp), but I could imagine that getting a lot worse on an island 100 times that size. I'd still love too see the larger, more complete island though! :thumbsup:

PS: Note that the lowest OFP viewdistance setting is 500 (thru either scripting or the options menu). In your readme you say to set it to 150 or so, which is impossible. Using the setfog command at about 0.5 or so works nicely, though.

Cheers for the link oyman thats exactly the thing I was looking for, but on my comp i have over a ton of lag! I'll have to play it fogged up. Thanks again.

Now that is one detailed map!  :D

Bit small though. Not really very good for missions, but thats really detailed.  ;)

Just a tiny bit bigger and I would have had a great idea for it  :'(
