Weta43 Posted March 26 Posted March 26 Working on the assumption that at some time there will be Winter textures for Afghanistan, could the textures cover the rivers and lakes with flat white - as either ice or snow - even if it's only a new surface texture for the water and they're actually still water as far as the sim is concerned? Ideally water above a certain altitude would become solid & white (perhaps gain a texture & a hitbox strong enough to become solid in practice?) but failing that at least looking solid would be better than dark rivers flowing through frozen landscapes. ("Ideal Plus" would be to simulate real life and let rivers be used as roads at altitude in the winter - but perhaps a bit too optimistic) Even without going to altitude in the mountains, Ghazni's daily average temp in Jan is -6℃ & < -2℃ Dec to Feb- so no water running down the streams there over winter... Salang pass in Winter 4 Cheers.
MAXsenna Posted March 26 Posted March 26 Would love that! And I wish we could have it on other relevant maps as well. Icing on the cake would be to be able to bomb them. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk 3
celestHawk Posted Tuesday at 06:01 PM Posted Tuesday at 06:01 PM The very first thing I tried after I bought the map was to check it in winter. Didn't knew that there are no textures yet so I start to explore it assuming that there is only snow in the Himalaya ridge. Found very beautiful places, in my opinion better that those showed through different Quick missions. 1 Win10 E5-2698 64GB Quadro P4000 Ai-Track Xbox F-15C F-16C F/A-18C || Su-27 MiG-29 || F-22 F-15EX MilitaryAircraftMod || CH-Iran Clean Cockpit Afghanistan | Persian Gulf | Iraq -> Syria

EricJ Posted Tuesday at 08:53 PM Posted Tuesday at 08:53 PM I mean during my time in 2008 there was more rain than snow where I was. The Korengal and some other mountains got snow, but nothing significant at my FOB. 1 Homepage | Discord | Linktree | YouTube 'Nearly everyone felt the need to express their views on all wars to me, starting with mine.
