deSAD you are... :twisted:
Thanks for the ingenius discovery!

One more thing for anyone that downloads maps from here and no matter how precisely follows the installation instructions the maps are not there in FMB...

:!: IMPORTANT :!:

Add : maps/all.ini to your filelist as well. 8)

- spud - 12.11.2007

^^^ if that isn't in the filelist, does it simply pull the unmodded map?

That would explain why I have not seen my changes...

lowfighter Wrote:You'd like to have them both selectable from FMB at the same time? If yes:
Copy the text of the winter map and paste into notepad, then save as winter_gitano_load.ini in the folder "files/maps/smolensk".
Open the file "all.ini" located into "files/maps" and paste the line
Smolensk_winter_gitano smolensk/winter_gitano_load.ini
below the default smolensk load.ini line.
Open the filelist.txt and add the lines
maps/all.ini (it might be already there)
maps/smolensk/winter_gitano_load.ini
If you don't alreaady have the all.ini file in the maps directory please ask here for it, my "all.ini" file have a bit different names which appear when opening map in FMB. So maybe someone has the "correct" all.ini file?

Do the same with the autumn map...

Only just tried this, thanks Lowfighter and thanks Gitano for these great new additions

I was wondering...do these modded maps replace your existing maps and do the AI miss the hilly areas or fly right into them?

---

- _1SMV_Gitano - 13.11.2007

modded maps can be added to default ones 8)

about AI's: they sometimes crash on the ground even in the stock game so i wouldn't care too much...

---

- lowfighter - 13.11.2007

Haven't checked yet, but I think they'll behave as usual. Would be good to check with some highly elevated ground but I don't have such at the moment.

One nice trick I noticed looking at map_T for desert online (check this out, it's easy to spot) and manchuria. There are regions with mixed textures, like checkerboards, say a mixture of lowland1 and lowland 3. This is nice because it allows even more varied land appearance. It would be good to try different such mixtures and texture combinations and see the effect.

I made a nice discovery with the mod Crimea map

I chaged this:

Quote:[FIELDS]
LowLand0 = land/summer/mount.tga

to this:

Quote:[FIELDS]
LowLand0 = land/summer/fields_midland_ian.tga

The result is very nice imho, much less green

I seem to have missed something here . . . - Fisneaky - 13.11.2007

are we on the same map??

You're looking at a desert Crimea by fly_zo

I'm talking about this one, from the current topic:

LAL_RONE Wrote:I finished the CRIMEA "relooked like the reality".
It 's very very long and tiring to find all the textures and make a catalog to reassign them ... I modify all textures in the map. it's difficult to get consistent visual. But now for me, with this file, the Crimea seems to reality with plenty of rocks !!! It is a combination of Italy, Kurland, Burma's ... textures (and others ) !

Some screens :

I like that texture too, kind of autumn one, used on the default Murmansk map. A very calm one. I'll check the result on Crimea.
