Are  you planning to improve the texture from the ocean to the full detail part of the map. It is very low res now and looks pretty bad, it would be great if it looked like the southern unfinished part of the Iraq map over Kuwait - great from altitude but no detail up close.

That parts has outside of the planned map zone.

No, it was only added for people who want to run carrier ops, the map was never intended to go that far as that's not Afghanistan, but they added it at the request of the community.

I understand it is not part of the detail area, but would be nice to have it look good at altitude. I don't need any towns or villages, just the higher res satellite image like google maps would provide.

This is why ED is so reluctant to add things.  They can't win.  How many posts were there begging for addition of water so they could have carrier ops?  And how many of those posts said "Just give us the land, it doesn't need any texture or anything"?  And how many posts have there already been about how terrible the textures are and begging for them to be improved?  I might actually fly from the carrier up occasionally, so it's not like I'm opposed to this addition, but adding any sort of texture (let alone satellite imagery) would bloat what is already a massive map size (and I like big area maps).

It would likely end up somewhere near 500gb once you factor in the fact that ED is going to add seasonal textures, which would be utterly ludicrous.

There is no way to know right now, once the map is completely done it is something we can look at, but it's not planned right now, the focus remains on the planned areas.

The page for Afghanistan Map on the DCS website is in Italian for the English version of the site.

Either they fixed it or it's a problem on your side, like the browser automatically changing the language for you.

Time to give Afghanistan another go with the DCS "TRIAL".  Looks like I have plenty of room on my DCS Terrain SSD.  👍
