hi,
*Updated witht he new links FW200 gave us ..thnx man,*
this is the island ive been working on since.....may? something like that..but stopped for a while cause i needed O2. but now im back again and working on it. "US Marine" has been helping me on the models a great deal and is workign hard with me to finish the island.
I need some feedback, and ideas. Basicly im making an island specialy for MP missions. but if anyone would like to make a campaign for it..he/she welcome. We will make some good MP missions to start off with.
This island willbe great for Air combats- Tank battles - urban combat - guerella fighting - ambushes - large scale war.
Ther theme is , moder style island..cities..a little island with 2 main cities. with 2 large airfields. ( for west and east) and some small airfileds for light auircraft like cessna..harriers. in woods and other places.

Hey m8, WOW (links work now ???) lol
Anyway, that terrain is Farking EXCELLENT!!!!
:o :o :o
Beyond belief!
The textures are excellent, the terrain detail is excellent, and i love the airfields.
Obviously youre a skille terrain editor, as this is some of the best work i've ever seen.
100/10 on all aspects of this terrain.
The only problem with it is:
We haven't got it yet! ;)
EXCELLENT work m8, keep it up, and this will be one of if not the best island out there!
Cheers m8

i said in the post..to view them copy the link..and paste it into a new browser window..then u can view them.

hey,,, Now that is a one son of a good looking master piece. I especially liked the red desert with the vegitation on it. It looked like what should I call it,,, aww,,, aww,,, I think I saw one mission like that in Rogue Spear... oh well. Nice work though, my island is way better........... LOL just joking but man,,, I want to send you 2 addons. It is a o2 model of a dense grasses to simulate terrains, I mean vegitations like in ghost recon. Is it alright? oh well, I have to watch the "THE ROCK" so bye.
-
Hey it's looking good. In particular the Carpark and the Overpass objects look great (gee...wouldn't mind using them on a map...hint hint). Could you post just a little more info (was it based on a DEM, or from Terragen), and could post a pic from inside WRPEdit showing the whole island (map view)?
If you have done roads as textures (ie surfaces) but not as objects....then they will behave differently to normal roads. But you can still do things with them. Here is just a little code snipet for your CPP file (change names/values as necessary).
class CfgSurfaces
{
class GENERALNAMEOFROADPAAFILES
{
files="GENERALNAMEOFROADPAAFILES*";
rough=0.000;
dust=0.03;
soundEnviron = "road";
};
};
GENERALNAMEOFROADPAAFILES=if all your roads start with the same prefix (ie LDS, pn, LAMER...whatever) then just type in that with the * at the end and it will apply the values to all surfaces with that name. But I am sure that if you hunt around you can find plenty of stuff to put in the CPP file :)
As a general thing I would say don't try to make your island do too much...ie cover every terrain type/gameplay style. It can (IMHO) make the island seem a bit fractured and less immursive. Also try to imagine it as a real place. I saw a few trees on VERY steep hills. But that's just a very minor crit ;)
Keep up the good work....and keep the screenies coming.
-
Great. It's really beautiful!!! All seem so real! Congratulation!
-
Awesome... Awesome to the max ;)
Any idea of release date
(airport is looking great, Control tower?)
And does it require RESISTANCE?
-
Finally someone that understand that making island with the game 3d models is not so good one.
keep it up even if I cannot see a pic of it...I remeber that this island where on your site weeks ago maybe I am wrong.
anyway Good idea!!
Now we have a "New Island"
Send it to me if you want ;)
-
G'day
To make the pics more usefull i uploaded them to my little webspace ;D
This makes viewing them better :)
I hope you don't mind..
Greetz,
FW200
EDIT No Problem :) if you need any other pics uploaded just pm me... (I removed the links since it would be double to have it here and in deadsoldiers post)
-
thnx FW200, i updated the original post with your links..much better..
About the trees on steep hills..that was just a test to see how the color of the trees and vegetation would go with the new texture i made. if u look around the island u wont see steep hills with trees..that hill isn;t even finished yet..dont wory i have a good sense of realisim.
Leone, what i meant by the roads is, do u know how the BIS roads are? u place the pieces where ever you want..and they just take the shape and form of the ground below? i want to create my own road that does that. Thats what i need.. i can make roads from land textures just like i did the RWY and taxi ways..but it would be stupid. i need to create roads just like the way BIS have them.
cheers
-
Hi,
I trust that you have O2 and the demo models?? There are some roads in there.. maybe you could change them to something to fit your needs.. :) You can stretch them and apply new textures so it looks better.. Just remember to change the roadway lod too
Greets,
FW200
-
i have O2, but i dont know about the demo models..please explain where ic an get em..
cheers
-
http://ofp.gamezone.cz/_hosted/evaddons/BASICOFPDEMOFILES.zip
The demo models..
The cesta xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx files are the roadways :)
-
Sorry, I thought you meant you wanted to do roads by making textures that looked like roads, and try and give them the same properties! If you want to make your own roads (objects) I'm sure there is loads of stuff out there by now on O2. My goof! :)

-
I first seen this island on OFPinternals but now I can see that you've done a lot of hard work! (more to come...I know from experience! :P)
Love the island DeadSoldier! :o
Especially the deserts and the airport!
Also I see your talented with the ol' 02!
I would mind putting that Car park in Skye! ;) ;D
I also particularly like that bridge!
Great work and can't wait to see more of your work!
Cheers,
Waterman. 8)

thanks waterman for yor kind comments..i will be adding more buildings that i made, right now, we figured out how to make our own roads..well "NAA US Marine" did.. hes an awesome scripter. The airport layout was given to me by CBFASI. he made the layout, and gave me a lot of info on the design of airbases and the types of hangars.
Some of the features we are working on at the moment are the new roads we are making, will add a screen shot soon. and also we are almost done with RWY lights, they look great at night, and during the day. But the nature of the OFP engine, u cant see all the lights on the RWY..it would just show the nearest 100 meters or something like that. oh well.
Atleast you can see the RWY when u get close to it rather than having to make a tight left turn to land as the RWY just apears out of nowhere!
The control tower is almost done..we wil ltexture it soon..more hangars are in the workds..a big one to fit a C-130. Ammo dumps, bomb shelters. And we are planning to make a big port next to the airbase..for large military ship..as i thinkit wil be needed with all those huge ships in the works.
cheers
-
It ownz!!! It rocks! I can't find more superlatives to describe your island!!! And whats Naa Marines e-mail adress? I would like to ask him if he's goign to make more ofp movies?
The idea about the port: finally!!! Some body thought about making one.. It would fit in with the LST and other big ships.
Please make a civilian harbour that lies in a big city like Boston or something. And it would cool to have more houses with doors that you can open and close ;)
OMG! Its cristmas soon... :D
-
Any news Dead soldier??
-
well, right now imw orking on a new hangar, it will fit a C-130. i can go bigger to fit the C-17..but i dont think its necesary.
An issue witht he C-130 hangar is that the only decent C-130 we have for OFP is underscaled...is a little bit small..it should be bigger. So the hangar im doing will fit it.. but i dont know if someone will make a new C-130 with the correct size..so then my hangar would be al ittle small..what do u think.
Then im working on a house, the textures look too clean..or cartoonish..i dont know why, but its not looking good..ill post some screen shots of the house to get your feedback.
Control tower is almost done, NAA US Marine is making it, and i will texture it as last step. it will be walkthrough, you can go up the stairs...on the balcony..into the control room..and so on.
cheers
-
Make the Hanger big!! Future proof it against a Big C-130 I say. :)
-
ok, ill make it bigger...
Im working on a harbour, if someone can get me some links for some photos of some military harbours, so i can work from them, i searched the net..but didn;t find much..only found aerial photos and not too close to see the details and stuff..
cheers
-
make sure that your bridges are set high enough to let boats like the Miraj through, also, a big bridge connecting the two tips of a harbor would be cool, especially if you made that bridge high enough that damn near any boat could go through, including the LSD, and LST. That would be really awesome. But these are only ideas. If you can't implement them realistically (i.e. don't put stuff where it doesn't make sense, like a bridge connecting two points that you wouldn't want to go to anyway.) or don't want to put em in, its your island. Anyways, I hope you keep working on it. I think this is going to be my new favorite island when it eventually comes out.

[attachment deleted by admin]

Nice pics again! Really nice desert and the cities and forests are good to. Keep up the good job. ;)
-
please give this amazing island to the ofp maniacs like me..I just can't wait...Superb.
-
*Hicup!
I must be drunk cause I see the most awsome, cool amzing neato (?), best um..................(thinking..............) did i say tubular(i hate that word.)
I love this map man!!!!!!!!!! ;D ;D :o
I love IT, i cant wait,
Suggestion! add a king hanger!!! U know the huge hangers much like the c-130 one but there bigger and have the control tower on top. it would be cool
-
Nice job!
-
Here are some more screens of the hangar, i think im done with it..unless someone points out something missing in it.

I was gonna add some ventelation and A/C but then i thought its not realy needed..and i dont know where they go exactly..
Feedback appreciated.
cheers
-
WOW! :o Looking good to say the very least! I look forward to trying to bomb the **** out of it ;)
Have you seen the ITA Hangers? The look great and come in 3 skins (camo, desert, artic......hint hint hint). Also it takes A LOT of ammo to destroy them. But you can walk right through them :( I hope you haven't got this problem?
-
Looknig better than good mate, all thatds missing are some lazy techies drinking coffee, and playing around on the car creepers.
lol
keep it up mate, this island is gonna ROCK!
-
Firstly: Amazing work! It's huge! :o Good texturing job too.
Secondly: Can you send me your Car Park and maybe a few other buildings via email. I would put them in Skye. ;) :)
craig.mwatt@btopenworld.com
Cheers,
Waterman. :)
-
i would send it , but the car park isn;t realy finished, it has some roadway issues, cause its big, in some area you can fall through the floor. so i devided it up into 2 seperate obnjects..and i still face the problem..but in less areas...and i still have to work on the geometry..i hate the LOD's..im good in modeling and texturing , but not LOD's.
If you are a master of LOD's and would like to help, let me know.
cheers
-
Very nice hangar! And I think ventilations would be a nice thing to have. It could be set just above the roofs. And it would add some more detail to the hangar to.
-
A control tower NAA Us MArine modeled..im doing the textures for it, and as u can see its not done yet..the black will be changed..too much contrast...i think..
just a heads up of whats coming up.

cheers

WOW! This island is bloody brilliant! How long 'till it's released? Wouldn't mind this for my Marines Campaign (entitled: The Few, The Proud) instead of a dull, rural Everon (I'm considering Nogovo, but this blows them away!)
Hey, I also like that big hangar, better than those small one plane hangars (I bet I could fit a Mig-29 in one of those, eh).
Can you give us a release date and pic of the map (actual map screen)?
And I like the sound of urban combat and large scale war, cos in my campaign you get promoted to lt and captain, so you get to command platoon and company through Command Engine. But when its released are you going to blend the textures a bit (just a suggestion). I like the city (and the idea of collateral damage). The subaru, and modern cars would be much more welcome here.
What camo was that crew man?
-
Nice pics of the control tower! Finally somebody makes one! :D
Let's party!! ;D
Have you asked Naa Marine if he's going to make another movie? Does he have icq? PM me today
-
Frosty, what do u mean by if im going to blend the textures a bit? u mean blend 2 different textures together so they would have a smooth change?> well yes i will, and i have made all the textures blend..if there are any screen shots showing 'unblended" textures, then its a test, just to see how the texture is.
cheers
-
Hassan could you make a small side room that is kinda like an office where there's a table and a computer and some radio and some other stuff?
-
Yup, thats what I meant.
-
umm....SWEETNESS-MONSTROPHIGUS! FUCKIN A, erm, ALL SHE-DIGGIDDY IN THE HOOD, ITS ALL GRAVY BABY! COWABUNGA! *fart*
umm, add those really tall radio towers. with the blinking red lights on top. you know what im talking about. and a powerplant, and, the superdome! (heh) um, and some other shit. it looks good. real good. if you want textures for houses and buildings i have hundreds uf high res textures. i can mix up some city ambient sounds for ya too. anything to help. ill do it. lookin good m8. keep it up. oh and i have some high res ground textures as well (^_-)
-
hows your island project going? :)
-
Yes how are things going with your island?
-
i think you guys have noticed that im making an F-15E..so im busy with it..ill contrinue work on it once im done.
cheers
-
555? Excuse my ignorance, but does the triple 5 have anything to do withe the Triple Nickles (555th Paratroopers Batt. Black Panthers) of WWII? :wow:
-
Deadsoldier-
When you make a great plane, you end up like G8 mod.
When you make a great island, you *might* end up like Kegetys.
c'mon man I'm a-waiting for those hangers and canals and control towers and (goes into condition similar to epileptic fit)
no offense to G8, but islands are way better than planes in my enlightened opinion ;D
-
HI Guys
when do release your island i hope in a few weeks. Your island is very cool ;) ;D
I WANT IT
-
Hey deadsoldier now that you finished your F-15 are you going to start back on this island or are you going to wait until you get all the bugs out of the F-15?
-
hey deadsoldier your f-15 is very good
-
Yeah it was great but Im wating for the mig-29 so that the east will have some chance against west.
But I have tested his island and he's got some interesting talent :D
I wish he would keep working on it but I don't know, its up to him to decide. ;)
-
DeadSoldier m8 F-15 cooooool ;)
Mig-29 very coooooooool I hope
And a Aircraft Carrier if you make one it wil KICK ASS ;D
-
Well, we're working on Mig-29 now.. after we're done.. we will make a chopper.. after that..ill get back to the island work. Hopefuly a new WRP editor will be out..cause im SERIOSULY sick of placing each object by itself.
cheers
-
One comment about the F-15 nuke- it can level buildings, tanks, and trees, but not forests! How stupids of BIS to make them undestroyable. If I got a nuke, I want those forests flat!
Other than that, nice work.
The MiG-29 will be cool, do more than one paint scheme plz!
What chopper are you doing?
-
we will make 2 mig-29 themes. German and czech.
We will make inorder:
1- czech
2-russian
3-german.
the chopper we will make is the EH-101
cheers
-
Seems like you have a lot of roads in there, how have you done those and about how much time did it take?
-
umm, deadsoldier, could u e-mail me pics of all ur buildings? ;D
i wana see em...
Garcia
umm, lol, forgot e-mail address :o
