Here is a public beta release of my North Korea 1:1 map:

http://www.mediafire.com/?ntgwyhxhdg5

This is a work in progress, and changes will be made in future.

*Update - Beta 3*
================
New actors.static which should remove problem objects - should work for people having problems saving / connecting online.


Changes since beta 0.1:
================

Detailed industrial areas added.

Airfields cleaned up and populated. Taxi points tweaked.

Osan Airfield now appears as it did in 1952.

Roads and rail lines expanded.

Coasts now at sea level.

Rivers at sea level for ~100 km inland.

Bridges along coastal rivers are now functional. There are now about 80 functional bridges on map. Roads have been reworked around inland rivers and through cities.

Textures changed. Map now looks more like pictures from the era, with light earth tones rather than lush greens.

*leftover bridge objects removed.


Notes:
=====

The major airfields (Kimpo, Osan, etc) are based on best available data, and may change as new information is found.

Some of the smaller strips are meant as emergency landing strips only (as they were historically) - trying to take off from Inje or Briscoe field, for example, might be tough.

The map is very large but fairly lightly populated. It loads in ~30 seconds on my machine. Important areas, like industrial sectors and ports, are more detailed. It may become more populated in future releases.

There is no proper map_f.tga, so if you play it on less than perfect settings, you might have problems.

Trenchworks may be added to the MLR in future releases. They will be in a separate load.ini, so old missions should not be affected.

Osan airbase is designed with F-84's and other jets in mind, so there is much more runway going west than east.

If you find a major problem with the map, like a missing bridge or a malfunctioning airfield, please PM me with the location and I will fix it for the next release.

The map has been tested in U 1.2 and HSFX 4.1

[CPS.fraggmann]

How do I install this Great map..I tried once but crashed to D/T. I thought I knew how to install but I guess I did something wrong!
Thanks for the wonderful map and I look forward to using it.

[redko]

Nice mate.

I don't have time to test it but i will do as soon as possible.

I'm thinking to provide you a set of textures based on you load.ini. Maybe it will help you to find good color tones and increase realism for your map. i will pm you it later

thanks for your map anyway :wink:

Check you have out done yourself!

I love what I'm seeing in this Map, I love the textures, I love the airfields.

This map is going to be Perfect for jet combat. Your map, Plus the 3BG KTO Map covers all of the Korean war. We hated that we couldn't go much farther north than the western Yalu River.

I got this to work perfectly with my UI 1.2 system!

Take it from someone thats spend the last 18 months with their nose deep in KTO Maps and Research, this Map is going to make Historic Campaign Builders such as my self drool. *wipes up*

Cheers!

I'll check it out and post an updated version.

The map installed and works great in Ultr Pak 108

Very good frame rates for such a large and detailed map. This is one of the best maps I have seen and as good or better than any stock map.

Ok, there was one leftover bridge object in the actors.static that I could find. I posted an updated version above - hopefully that will work for you.

Let me know.

Not sure about this - could you check your static.ini to see if these objects are there?

[teisco]

It did work and save one mission but I cannot save any more or change and save the first mission.
