Whizz Wrote:Thanks again for this map, it's a real beauty. Could I ask one small favour if possible? Would it be possible to add a grass airfield near either Trikkala or Larissa? Would be good for knocking together some 1941 blitzkrieg fights for the Gladiators and Hurricanes of the RAF.

Actually there's also the Sedes Airfield in Thesaloniki missing ... but i'm thinking of rectifying that along with other little things ...

ZG52 is considering to further develop the Hellenic side of Redfoxe's & Volperossa's briliant work and add the missing historic airfields restore the Size of the 2 Main Hellenic cities Athens & Thesaloniki, add its port as well and offcourse corect all the names of Counrty and cities. A file
that rectyfies that is allready posted earlier but here it is again :

Corected Hellenic names of Country & cities :

I can get off my horse actualy.. I've been breaking and schooling horses for years..

Quote: the channel map was not exactly a good one was it ? for starters, the coast of england was totally wrong

Not sure what I could have been mistaken about in that statement.. That's pretty disrespectful to all the hard work that went into it.
canons channel map is superb, and is the best rendition of the English coastline we have had in the game..

If you have not actually tried making a map, then several of the difficulties involved will be unknown to you.
The Channel map is 1:2 scale, but even when working at 1:1 scale the limits of the game engine and the way it has been designed are annoying. Getting accurate data from the satellites is one thing, but the finest we can detail is limited by what is represented by one pixel, which in this case is 50 metres. Here in Thailand there are many beautiful limestone hills and mounts, but because they are quite small in width the il2 engine just ignores them and they do not appear.

I want to begin by saying I am verry pleased with this map. Every one wants their favorite part of WW II history to represented historicaly and correct. So fellow virtual flyers, give these guys a break. If you can help, then help. If not explain what could be fixed and let the artist paint!

Myself I would like to see an airfield on Pantelleria. I could use a test runway of some sort but I'm having a hard time placing it. Plus I can find facts but not photos or drawings. I'm still very pleased.
I have a few questions. I need help some Allied bases.
Would the Allied base at Fardjouna or Dar Farhouna be near Korba?
Due to the maps limitation, If I used the base at AB -12 would that be a good substitute for EL Haouaria?
On the Italien mainland, do you know where I could place Montecorvino. Since I do not speak Italien, There are different Montecorvino's and i'm having difficulties finding a suitible base. Could you help? I could only find it near Lago di Ochito.
Last question, could the airfield at Lesina pass for Rametelli, Italy airfield.

I have a few more but any help on the ones above would be fantastic.

In the next upgrade of the map will be the names of Greece (Hellas) updated as indication of I/ZG52_Gaga, new cities more complete,
some skin soil amended and the railways.
Every indication that might be useful with images or reports to improve the final result is welcome.
Some of the first screen changes:
Terracina

Gaeta

Napoli


I thank all of appreciation for this map.

Hail Pilots,
I am just curious, I am making a 40 mission campaign for North Africa using this map. By the way outstanding job mate. But, I do have a question. I need a railroad in the map. How do I place one in there. I checked in full mission builder but couldn't find any....any info would be great...Thank you

PS I used the Dry Cargo Ship as well in one of my missions and it gave me an error, that it couldn't load the ship. So I changed it to a different cargo vessel and it worked fine, not sure if it was the map or the ship but just thought I'd mention it....Man I love this Map...So many options for campaigns... :wink:
