Cross-Map Asset Porting for Overlapping Map Sections

[celestHawk]

One of the things that makes DCS maps so special is the level of detail and immersion, but as more maps are released, many of us are starting to notice the growing overlap between them. This creates a lot of potential—but also some frustration—for both mission creators and users who own multiple maps.

The wish:
Going forward, I hope ED finds a way to allow assets and detail improvements from newer maps to be ported or shared across overlapping areas on older maps. This would benefit:

• Every map → keeping them visually consistent and up to date.

• Mission creators → providing a richer, more unified sandbox to build in.

• Users who bought overlapping maps → rewarding their investment with an improved experience across all the terrain they already own.

I would personally be happy to pay for enhancements to my existing maps if that’s what it takes. If there’s one thing ED is very good at, it’s convincing us to open our wallets —and this would be a worthy cause!

Such a system would significantly improve the map ecosystem as a whole, reduce fragmentation, and future-proof our investment in DCS terrain.

 

P.S. Thank you for adding H3 bases to Iraq map and finish Liwa AFB for PG!
