Hi all,
updated version of Malta Map (v 1.3) with self-installer is now available at AAS site

http://allaircraftsimulations.com/MaltaMapExeV1_3.zip

The download pack comes with an installer (thanks Fly_Zo!!) and requires the new wrapper.dll
This map requires IL-2 1946 v.4.09bm. It will not work with v.4.08m.


The map comes with three missions (two coops and one dogfight mission) that will be loaded
by the installer in directories Missions/Net/Coop/mrz_coop and Missions/Net/Dogfight/mrz_dog, respectively.

The maps has three separate versions:
mrz_Malta
mrz_Malta_medium
mrz_Malta_high

The two latter versions have been enriched by Letchik of many more buildings in Malta and some other towns in Sicily.

Thanks to Mapalm for his help, to Letchik for his work on buildings, to the beta testers, to Fly_Zo and to all friends of AAA forum for their support.


UPDATE V.1.32
For those experiencing FPS drop over Luqa, Takali and Marsa airfield, this V.1.32 patch is now available.
Uncompress the patch in the IL-2 root folder. You need full V.1.3 to install this patch (add-on patch only)

Installed the new malta, thanx for a great job! However I have lost all of my other add-on maps: Normandy, slot, etc. Any ideas how I can get them back? Tried re-installing the slot map but "no dice". What have I done wrong? In looking at the files they'er all there but just don't show up in FMB.

Ok just copy your all.ini file from game root\files\maps\all.ini

to: mods\mapmods\maps\all.ini ..... and reinstall mod ....

you need to do it only once (cos switching from files to wrapper system)...afterwards you'll be fine for all other new map mods

for more please see" install instructions sticky"

(The link is inoperative)


thanks,

This comes with a default maps all.ini with the only extra being these Malta maps...so if you replace your old all.ini you will lose the other mod maps........

OK for those of us who understand the system...we just ad the new entries...... but those not familiar will wonder where their other mod maps have gone

you need to move all.ini (with old mods entries) from files\maps\ to mods\mapmods\maps\ .... so after installing malta you'll have all of it .....vpmedias mod doesn't need all.ini cos those are default maps (already present in all.ini)

Congratulations Maraz, and all who took part. This is a brilliant addition to the series and a credit to you all. It really is something to be proud of. Well done!!!!!!

[char_aznable]

Once again, for all those gents still remaining (like me) with old wrapper, all new files MUST be put into .../files/maps/mrz_Malta folder, these lines must be added to all.ini located in .../files/maps folder:

mrz_Malta mrz_Malta/mrz_load.ini
mrz_Malta_high mrz_Malta/mrz_load_high.ini
mrz_Malta_medium mrz_Malta/mrz_load_medium.ini

and finally here are the new entries for filelist.txt :

maps/all.ini
**This one only if not already present**

maps/mrz_Malta/actors.static
maps/mrz_Malta/actors_high.static
maps/mrz_Malta/actors_medium.static
maps/mrz_Malta/mrz_load.ini
maps/mrz_Malta/mrz_load_high.ini
maps/mrz_Malta/mrz_load_medium.ini
maps/mrz_Malta/map_c.tga
maps/mrz_Malta/map_c.tga_table
maps/mrz_Malta/mrz_ed_m01.tga
maps/mrz_Malta/mrz_ed_m02.tga
maps/mrz_Malta/mrz_map_F.tga
maps/mrz_Malta/mrz_map_h.tga
maps/mrz_Malta/mrz_map_T.tga
maps/mrz_Malta/texts.txt

I hope to have been useful. Cheers :!:

Finally a map of my country! Actually I never was expecting one.... Great job! Small Note: There were 4 airports in Malta at the time; Luqa (Central), Ta Qali (North to Luqa), Hal Far (Just beneath and smaller than Luqa) and a small Hangar at Marsaxlokk

Very beautifull map Maraz!
Just for my campaign. :wink:
A big thank you!
But I have noticed something. :oops: On the western coast of the Gozo a some houses stand in water. A screenshot I have forgotten on the home computer. If it is necessary, I shall attach it tomorrow.

Best regards,

OK, I will check that, thanks

char_aznable - very helpful, thank you. I have the new wrapper but must have configured it incorrectly. Anyway, I'm now able to use this great map. Excellent work maraz. The scale of the map is great I think - Sicily being far enough away to give a sense of distance but near enough that casual players like myself won't be put off. It'll be tense when you're returning in your shot up 109 or 111, too.
Thanks for taking the time to make this.

Dear Maraz,

I have forgotten still something. :oops:
Jacks for artillery to the north and to the south of the Valetta. Some from them are located under a corner to horizon. AI artillery cannot shoot from such position.

Best regards,
YuVe.

Dear Maraz,

I am sorry for my discrepancy yesterday. :oops:
Houses stand in water to the south of the Nadur (Gozo).
Jacks for artillery under a corner to horizon are located in Fort Benghaza and Zabbar battery.

Best regards,
YuVe.

Do I need a mod installer or the sound mod to run this map?
