Royal Deluxe Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Sure you can upgrade a RWG map in 50-150 Hours. But a own map you will be happy if you have the highmap after that time. For a 8x8 BF2 Project reality map (which had arround 1% of the details) the modder needed 1.5 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizzalicious Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Island map will destroy ppl's framerates and alot of servers. Are they crazy? There's memory leaks in the game already. #HoldMyBeer I can make the game lag even more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PurgatoryWolf Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Players: Waaaa I cant see where the rad zone is until it's killing me. Players: Waaaa we don't have enough water on the maps! TFP: hold my beer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kattla Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 I wish they add the plains biome back, and hope for a tropical biome to go with those islands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Guys (and also girls if there are any here)... i am still waiting for someone to "build" a seperate map like Navezgane, which we all can play... Perhaps looking more like RWG, but specifically designed with 2-3 big cities in mind and a lot of interesting stuff inbetween? I'm building one, FYI. ...not as hard as one might think. The (very) time consuming part is adding prefabs, which I haven't begun yet. Once I learn how to insert prefabs using the world editor it'll go fast.

AtomicUs5000 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I'm building one as well, but I am currently focusing on just the prefabs. I wish to make entirely with custom prefabs. Not that I dislike the ones provided for us, but if I am going to go through all the work I want it to be at least fresh and new for anyone who plays it. So yeah, I can foresee at least 1000 hours of work just in that. Then, you still have to place them and make sure the terrain conforms properly... and that part right there is the big time consumer. We have the means to adjust terrain height on the map, but fine-tuning it to the exact block height is a tricky process. As if just figuring out the RGB value for a certain pixel representing the terrain top-down isn't enough, you have to have this height in the terrain match with the dimensions of your prefab. Then, let's say you get that far, now you might have situations where you adjusted the terrain so much to comply with the prefab, that it now needs to be smoothed out some. Keep in mind this is only half of it. The other half is the roads, where the same terrain adjustments must be made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stasis78 Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Without procedural generation I respect your tenacity in doing a world this way. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostlight Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 Just noticed in my current run that floating POIs are back with a vengeance. About 30% of the buildings in a city I just discovered collapsed on entry as they were on non-flat ground. Even a little dip in the terrain is enough.

SlicksGirl Posted March 16, 2019 Share Posted March 16, 2019 how are you getting islands? or even making rwg generator to work. it keeps crashing my system and i am not on a potato. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myrkana Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 how are you getting islands? or even making rwg generator to work. it keeps crashing my system and i am not on a potato. that was a problem with the origonal 17.2 release. All worlds were making island with massive water. It was fixedwith a patch afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
