spooks2k1 Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) Guys, any ideas for terrain locations ? I'm learning the terrain making process on a small piece of the Helmand Province, but Batou's Afghanistan seems well under way, so I'm unsure if any more Taliban pounding is needed. I've seen Vietnam mentioned, that might be a cool terrain to make. ? any ideas? thanks spooks Edited June 25, 2011 by spooks2k1

spooks2k1 Posted June 24, 2011 Author Posted June 24, 2011 Balkans? :P Hmmm good call The distinct identity and fragmentation of the Balkans owes much to its common and often violent history and to its very mountainous geography.:D
Snoopy Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 I for one would like: Korea (especially since I was stationed at Osan in the lat 90s) Europe (the Balkans would be cool, would love to fly out of RAF Lakenheath to drop some ordinance someplace in Europe) v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website

john_X Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) the entire Europe i think it will catch many person's interest here. if anyone decides here to start the project i can give my help. Edited June 24, 2011 by john_X
spooks2k1 Posted June 24, 2011 Author Posted June 24, 2011 The best way would be for people to do a bit of homework and submit a project plan covering borders coalitions scenario etc. My strength is modding, my weakness is geography and history :D We could take a vote, the top 3 go to a poll & the winner gets made ?
Vekkinho Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 Northern Turkey + Armenia...it's somewhat modelled with FC2.0 but needs adding trees, rivers, lakes, cities, roads, airfields to have at least few real NATO airbases in FC2.0 map... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

spooks2k1 Posted June 24, 2011 Author Posted June 24, 2011 North Cape. Fjords and mountains, frozen barren plains - and something very different from what we have. Beautiful scenery, but who would we kill ? Iran - Irak - Persian Gulf Hmmmm, very good suggestion, scope for tons of scenarios & missions past and present. But a HUGE area, need to have Baghdad, Kuwait and Tehran on the map ?
Cornbread Posted June 24, 2011 Posted June 24, 2011 (edited) Um, dude? Edited June 25, 2011 by Cornbread [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
spooks2k1 Posted June 25, 2011 Author Posted June 25, 2011 Um, dude? Oops sorry about that, I just looked it up in the Urban Dictionary, I honestly thought it was a term used for Taliban only, I didn't realise how racist it was, post amended, sorry for any offence.
Cornbread Posted June 25, 2011 Posted June 25, 2011 Cool, man. No worries. Oh, and by the way: Iraq. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Cibit Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Actually just been looking on google earth. Can we have the Caspian sea and surrounding countries. Then you can join up at Tblisi for a huge area:) i5 8600k@5.2Ghz, Asus Prime A Z370, 32Gb DDR4 3000, GTX1080 SC, Oculus Rift CV1, Modded TM Warthog Modded X52 Collective, Jetseat, W10 Pro 64 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Adding JTAC Guide //My Vid's//229th AHB
104th_Cobra Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 I already thinked about start pansharpening LANDSAT 7 ETM+ 2003 images to 12.5m resolution, for western and central europe. The SRTM terrain model with +- 90m resolution is also public available; perhaps I can also obtain the SRTM with 30m resolution for Germany area. But I'm lacking the principal factor: free time to do that :( 104th Cobra [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
104th_Cobra Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Not to say that is my primary kind of professional work and nowadays I'm really tired. 104th Cobra [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
104th_Cobra Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Talking about data: I have access to Portuguese mainland ortophotos and the policies for government and public data in Europe is changing. Perhaps is not that dificult to obtain high resolution images for some areas of the continent. 104th Cobra [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Outlaw Posted June 29, 2011 Posted June 29, 2011 Iraq, Iran, Syria, Jordan, Saudia Arabia, Kuwait, Egypt, Israel... lots of scenarios can be made.. take a pick... Specs: 13900k @ 5.5Ghz, 64GB @ 3600Mhz, 3080Ti.
thermalburn Posted July 3, 2011 Posted July 3, 2011 i just bought A10C and i'm having a lot of fun with it. i was thinking about starting to mod this game, as i mod/map other games. For the maps, i was planning on doing afghanistan, but thats already underway. I was thinking about instead doing a Kuwait/Iraq map based on the 1990 gulf war; complete with burning oil fields lol (i know they didnt use the A10C but w/e) Or maybe a fictional conflict taking place near North Korea and the DMZ. which would guys prefer? Also are there any complete community made terrain packs so i can take a look at?
