MAESTR0

Didn't think you'd notice so quickly. But you didn't see the second hand on the clock. @Fred901@Magic Zach Thanks for the help. We are trying to make Normandy 2 one of the best DCS maps. We will be grateful for any information.

Hi Today we will visit some British and French airfields. This will be 3 English original airfields: Ford Funtington West Malling and 3 French original airfields: Creil Beauvais-Tille Villacoublay

Hey! Let's continue: Why is Normandy 2 released separately and what about Normandy 1944? Normandy 2 is a new map that is created on new technologies and includes a territory much larger than N1944, much more perfect and detailed. The developers of UM and ED are making it so that all users of Normandy1944 will have a free global update available that will allow them to get their N1944 map at the Normandy 2 technology level and make these maps compatible in online multiplayer scenarios. Brighton (UK) You can see more pictures in this 2 theme: What happens when a player with just Normandy 1 spawns at a field on a Normandy 2 MP server that isn't on the Normandy 1 map? All obstacles and terrain for both maps will be the same after updates. Will the internal DCS map coordinates be the same as on the prior Normandy 1944, I mean the same coordinate origin and coordinate scales? Yes, the Origin and coordinate scales remain the same. How low is low detail? If I fly from one high detailed airbase to another high detailed base but pass through a low detailed area, how jarring will it be? We are currently doing a lot of work to ensure that the Normandie2 map is friendly to all DCS users. Beachy Head This is a screenshot of a highly detailed map area. Previously, this was a "low detail zone" on the 1944 Normandy map, but now it will be available to all users with this level of detail. This will be for the users of "Normandy 1944" and for the owners of "Normandy 2". I didn't understand what would happen to my Normandy 1944? The users will not lose anything, on the contrary, they will gain. The map will receive a global update: improvements to the southern part of England will become available with a detailed coastline and original airfields, there will be an update of buildings and airfields. Also, new terrain textures have been added for England. What airfields will be on the map? In addition to the 50 airfields announced, we are already working on airfields: Orly, Dreux, Stoney Cross, Thorney Island, Croydon, Odiham. By the time of release, the number of airfields will reach 65, which is more than on the map of Syria" Funtington Airfield

Hello! Today we will show you what we are currently working on. A lot of work has been done, and we can share with you the preliminary results.

Hi! We have seen your questions and will try to answer them. When will it release? The intent is to release into Early Access before the end of 2022. However, this may extend into early 2023 based on testing results. How much will it cost? DCS: Normandy 2 will be available as a complete map for $59.99 USD with 20% off while in Early Access. If you have either DCS: Normandy 1944 or DCS: The Channel maps, you can purchase Normandy 2 for $14.99 USD. If you own both, you can purchase DCS: Normandy 2 for only $9.99 USD. How big is the Normandy 2.0 map compared to the Normandy 1944 map? Please see the attached image that illustrates the low and high detail areas of the Normandy 2.0 map compared to the existing Normandy 1944 map. The Normandy 2.0 map will be 400x600 km, which will make it significantly larger than the Normandy 1944 map. Is this a combining the Normandy 1944 and Channel maps? No, this is an all-new map that covers all the same area as the Normandy 1944 map, plus an extensive expansion that also covers large parts of the same area included in the Channel map. What new cities and landmarks have been added? Chief of among them are London and Paris, but it will also include many new medium to small size urban areas that make up the greatly expanded area. This will also include new ports, airfields, factories, rivers, canals, and more. Most of the Normandy 1944 map objects have also been greatly improved like buildings, bridges, airfield objects, rail lines, roads, trees, fences, poles, and more. What airfields will be included at release? The total number of airfields has bee increases to 50 for the Early Access version. This may further increase after Early Access release. Please see the attached map for a listing of the initial airfields. Am I paying for the same map twice? No, this is a new map, not an upgrade to the existing Normandy 1944 map. Although the Normandy 2.0 map includes the same area covered in the Normandy 1944 map, it is much larger with greater detail, accuracy, texture resolution, and trees. Because the Normandy 1944 map was created using older map technology and tools, it is not possible to simply expand the size of that existing map. The Normandy 2.0 map has been created with new map technology and tools that has allowed us to greatly increase the map size and amount of detail. Because they are different maps, all existing missions and campaigns created for the Normandy 1944 and the Channel maps will continue to function on those maps, nothing changes. However, missions created for the Normandy 1944 map would not work in the Normandy 2.0 map. As such, the Normandy 1944 and Channel map will continue to be for sale. If I only own the Normandy 1944 Map, will I be able to join servers running the Normandy 2.0 map? Yes, but detail areas included in the Normandy 2.0 map and not in the Normandy 1944 map would be at low detail and missing world objects. This item is still being worked on and may change. Will the framerates be worse than the current Normandy 1944 map? Using the latest Terrain Development Kit (TDK), we have optimized Normandy 2.0, despite an increase in the number of objects. You should see no loss in performance compared to the Normandy 1944 map. Will there be winter textures? We plan for the Normandy 2.0 to only include the summer season as it is being created around operations in Normandy in the summer of 1944 (Opération Neptune).

Hi, today, some screenshots may seem familiar to you, even if you are not a resident of these territories or a participant in peacekeeping missions. Meet Cyprus! Like everything in this region, this island is steeped in history.

@Lurker seasons are not planned yet (UPD: there will be no seasons until release) Avenger31 Diyarbakir airport not planned

We respect the wishes of users and can say that in the future there will be a big update that will capture the territories east of the Euphrates, including airfields: Russian (former US) base - Tal Siman Military base "Kharab-Ishk" (Where are Apaches) Sanliurfa Airport Turkey * @shu77 @Aarnoman @Toriy we can say that we already have in our plans and ready-made airfields and territories that you asked for earlier and now, but in order to release them, you need to carefully work out the entire adjacent territory and test it. Therefore, you will learn about the emergence of these airfields and territories from the news. @ViFF We hope that this important historical part of Jordan will be presented for release. @Shadow KT we will discuss this issue. Thank you all for your attention to our map. We are finalizing a major mainland map update. It aims to optimize and improve performance on midrange systems. (Yes, this is your credit: a meeting was held and some solutions were found that allow you to increase productivity without any visible degradation of quality). At the same time, the development team did everything to improve the visual component of the map. UNIFIL base located in southern Lebanon (Nakura city), on the border with Israel Heliport Nukura. Solar power plant near the King Hussein airfield Oil Terminal for Tankers Nuclear warheads at Inzhirlik airfield Radar at the Inzhirlik airfield We have always tried to make the map interesting. For this, more than 200 original objects and more than 100 historical structures have been made. We also tried to make the map a challenge for free-flying master pilots. After work, our developers had some fun. (Do you remember their epic helicopter landing at the stadium? (We signed the coordinates of the objects, some of them you will see soon)

Hi, of course they will. Right now) Syria map developers have traditionally paid great attention to original and historical sites. Many observations of our users help us to make the map even more interesting and informative.

Hello pilots of the DCS: World! We continue to highlight work to improve Syria Map. Today we will show you several airfields. Gaziantep Havalimani (Turkey) H-4 Air Base is a Royal Jordanian Air Force base located near Ruwaished in Mafraq Governorate, Jordan. Rosh Pina Airport (Israel)

We are continuing to improve the map. Updated coastlines to support new DCS technologies. State borders and demarcation zones have been worked out, including under the protection of UN troops.

Rest assured: all bugs you find are listed, each is assigned a status and fixed. We see all the reports and are working on them.

All airfield facilities in the Syria project are destructible and have a damage model. Even the airfield fence can be destroyed and users will see the fittings sticking out. But as far as the original objects are concerned, due to their ideological significance and their historical significance, it was decided that the possibility of their destruction would not be available. UPD: Nevertheless, we are working on various solutions in this direction and hope that by the time the work on the Syria map is completed, traces of cannon fire or missile and bomb strikes will be visible on all objects, except religious.
