I took the Low terrain textures for a spin this morning.  Looking and performing great!  Beirut is my favourite airfield of all my maps. 

If we are honest, this map has the most unique/distinctive airfields of all current maps. Incirlik and its "waterslide" runway, Beirut (just set the time in the morning, with the sun appearing in the valleys to the east 😍), or Ramat David with its very sketchy runway 26 (or is it 27?) due to buildings and hills on the approach. But man, what level of detail and love they all get.

 

I look forward to the changes shown here in these screens. Performance-wise I haven't really had reasons to complain, outside of Ramat David which seems to be difficult for my PC to handle, the rest of the map runs fairly well especially compared to the Channel. It has easily become the #1 map for my online group of friends and we enjoy flying over it.

I saw someone recently concerned about whether or not the Marinaras would get Andersen AFB right as it has quite a unique runway.  After seeing what Ugra have accomplished with the airfields on Syria I certainly believe it is possible within the constraints of the engine. .

And the wonderful hidden gem of Rayak, home of the Lebanese Air Force and the Hawker Hunter.  Did some circuits at dawn there this morning.  🙂  Only one active runway: 222.   Gotta love it.

When will the updated map be available?

It's ready when it's ready. No dev on DCS will ever give you a release date, because 1/ it depends on ED's own release schedule and 2/ however long you think you need to finish something, there are always unforeseen problems arising and bugs to fix that delay the release.

 

In two weeks probably.

Sounds delicious!

Gaziantep is looking great, nice to see that level of detail moving across into Northern Turkey.

I don't believe Al-Azraq is planned.  detailing that far south would require Tel Aviv to be added as well which is quite a significant change.  I thought it was nice to get a second Jordanian field on the list.

Fairs, although maybe just expend into Jordan a little bit for it to be included and leave Israel more untouched or expended less far down, ED kind of does a similar thing in the Persian Gulf as well

This is great, awesome work!! Definitely makes Syria my favourite map by far, really intricate detail on airfields - they look beautiful. Will allow mission makers many new possibilities for scenarios.

I hope that some more detail work can be done east of the euphrates river from raqqah, as it saw significant combat from coalition air forces in the fight against ISIS to support the kurdish troops. Please consider detailing this area to near Deir ez-Zur.

Fantastic work the team can be really proud of what you achieved, it is clear you all have a passion for the map 🙂

Any chance we get a couple generic city blocks, were the city of Afrin is located? North Syria, near the turkish border, northwest of Aleppo. It is shown on the F10 flight map, just nothing there apart from the river and streets crossing. With Gaziantep now getting some love it will make that area perfect...

Deir ez-Zur is included in the final set of fields so I would expect detail out to it.

Have a look in my thread on this subforum, I have the forthcoming airfields listed there based on what Maestro and ED announced.

Looks incredible 👍🏻👍🏻, looking forward to some cyprus images soon 😇. And hopefully maybe an expansion into Jordan to Al-Azraq AB?? 😇😇

Al-Azraq would be absolutely fantastic 🤞

A lot of countries were based here during OIR.

 

And with Amman located about 40nm west of it, it's not really mandatory to also add that city (I can imagine this would be way too much work)
