Battle of France Map - Part 2 - WIP
#1

Following Lowfighters suggestion I've pulled these posts into a new thread.
===========================
Based on the Singapore map template this is the area I intend to begin work on.

This provides coverage for all of the Battle of France - Phase 1, May 1940
Dunkirk scenarios, including cross channel RAF support.
Dieppe Raid scenario
Ardennes - "Battle of the Bulge"
Maybe if I shifted it north a bit I would pick up Arnhem? - Operation Market Garden
-- but want to keep a good coverage around Sedan for the Meuse bridgehead area.

I don't imagine for a minute that it will be possible to fully populate the map due to processing contraints however if key areas are detailed and the remainder is limited to principal features it might work. Only one way to find out.

For the technically minded -- Singapore map_c.tga is 8000x5408 pix. which at 50m per pix is equivalent to 400km x 270.4km which is what I've based the map on.
Anybody care to check my figures?

----------------------------------------

Rough draft of coastline done.
All loads in FMB ok. So needs detail added now.
map_F overlays the old Singapore view in the distance at the moment but easy to change that.
New coastline has no default texture yet. -- Needs some work on map_T to resolve that.

The rivers shown are from the old Singapore map. They will all change.
