As promised a map for Dakar is finished and ready for downloading. To add a little something special, I've included 2 other African maps in the download package: a map for the Madagascar campaign of 1942 and another, mainly landscape map, for Portuguese Mozambique.

Here is the download link. Instructions for installing are in a readme.txt file.

Please take note, that a new pack of objects is needed for the Dakar map to work - dlv_Egypt objects.


___________________________________
UPDATE: Dakar Lite version

for members who wish to have a lighter version of Dakar city, the Egypt objects in this city only, have been overwhelmingly been replaced by traditional Il-2 objects. A few still remain, but just a few.

Download the file, unzip and place the files into map directory 'ag_Dakar'.

You will have to add a new line to your all.ini to choose this option. Please add

These maps are not densely populated, except possibly the Dakar area. Hopefully they will provide some scope for members who like the Forgotten Battles and Obscure Places mode of playing.

Dakar witnessed a British/Free French attack on the Vichy controlled colony. Madagascar was the scene of a more successful Allied invasion by British, Rhodesian, South African and Australian forces in which they faced not only Vichy french forces, but apparently also a number of Japanese naval vessels.

The Mozambique map features a little gimmick for the startup map. There is an entry for the standard type of startup map and a second entry for those who wish, for an intro map featuring a Google Maps overlay, this being mainly a question of introducing some color.

Here are some screenshots
