Well on my current map Kiska is already closer than it should be. It is properly placed with regards to latitude though. Many Oleg-approved maps have cheated distances or are not true-to-life representations of what they should be, so maybe I can make this map as a compact style Aleutians.

IMHO, it would be the best that way .... i don't like time skipping black screen .

yes exactly...scale must be change i think....as ours originals maps on Il2 because it must be playable.

i vote for an islands chain with a scale more appropriate :wink:

I am member of FAW team ( http://il2-faw.org/ ) ... and before Sound mod I thougt to create an Aleoutian Campaign...with Marianas Map ! distances are playables...

A member of FAW team was modifying this map (rise in the relief) ... but with your project..it's in stand by.

Well without changing the scale, I can cheat distances and bring the land masses closer together. I'll add Unalaska (Dutch Harbor) later on tonight and see how it looks.

Oops sorry if I took away your project. Was not my intention. Once I get the terraforming done I will gladly offer my map files to your team if they want to contribute.

no no your map is great...no problem ! carry on !

[Skunkmeister]

Well the thing is that I'm working on the Slot at the same time, which is not something I should be doing...2 things at once. I should concentrate on one or the other.

Also, I was using this map to test things for the Slot map. I dont know if I will have the patience to texture it completely.

So like I said, if your team wants to contribute, by all means just say so and I will offer up my files no problemo.

Here it is with Unalaska and part of Akutan Island:



Not very geographically accurate, but it should be a map to play some good scenarios on.

[folgore83]

good job !

So...how are the distances?

[Skunkmeister]

Well the map is taken from Hawaii, and that's 320kmx160km. Plenty of space for many different types of missions.

[folgore83]

ok... :wink:

Zo, do you have the map_T for Norway also?

[fly_zo]

Zo, do you have the map_T for Norway also?

nope , files for new maps are with those funny (example:013245..DRE..) names .... to find them you'll need to open each of those ... recognize and properly rename .... so far only load.ini ( thanks to Lowfighter)
