Would Kill for this...

I know its a bit Big, well bigger than any map yet, BUT is mostly water, and the islands are (or were in 82) quite barren and so is the argentinian piece of land depicted....

Anad or, you can cheat as i did with my Il2 Map and bring the islands closer to the continent, the added bonus is you dont get 1.5 hours of level flight...

It would be a great addition, but I'd amend it to show the entire exclusion zone. Large, yes, but with so much ocean, I expect it wouldn't be too taxing on resources or developers time.

 

It was removed from the list of upcoming projects due to a lack of a licence for the Skyhawk I believe. We'd also need a Sea Harrier, Super Edendarde, The correct variant of Mirage (I don't know which off the top of my head), and the correct naval assets. Not to mention DCS Sheep, Albatross and penguin simulator and some really convincing mud texture files.

A Falklands map is pretty much my top wish regarding maps (maybe besides Afghanistan and Fulda Gap 85')!

Especially considering that most of the aircraft that were used in that conflict are available in DCS or are under development:

- UH-1 Huey (available)

- Harrier (different variant in development)

- Mirage III (in development)

- Gazelle (available)

- Skyhawk (Mod in development)

- Pucara (in development) Edit: Scratch that. I just noticed RAZBAM decided to not make the Pucara (at least for the time beeing).

What list? I know a Falklands map was on VEAOs roadmap for a while, but they have nothing to do with the Skyhawk.

There is the possibility that we can do it independently. As with airplanes.

 

Baquito, If you can do it independently, you have my help.

 

Baquito si se puede hacer independiente conta con mi ayuda.

I'd love a Falklands war map, however at the moment for some reason you have to have maps bordered by land, not water. And having the land borders where there should be water is a great big fat middle finger to the realism department in my books.

I'd want the "fjords" just west of the proposed border as well. Lots of surprising and sudden encounters with ships..!

 

Re: land surrounding the edges of the map...make the boundary some distance from "allowed airspace" (out of visual sight, say 10-20 miles) and have it be a simple sand bar or coral reef.

Charru, Estuuve viendo lso requisitos para hacer mapas y me superan ampliamente...

I have been looking at the Map creating requisites and tehy surpass my habilites, specially teh proficiency with 3Dmax thing... terrain and radar data altitudes is no problem I base my Il2 map with NTTR files... but the creating and placine every building instead of having soem to use from a menue really changes the game...

[Charrua]

Baco, where you found how to make the maps, that you get over some things does not mean that we find someone willing to help.

 

Baco, donde encontraste como hacer los mapas, que te superen algunas cosas no quiere decir que encontremos alguien dispuesto a ayudar.

No there is not. You can't make a map without ED's assistance and tools. You can't get those things without being a licensed 3rd party.
