I figured out how to solve that boring problem with ground textures, and i've started placing objects, houses, slums and so on...
Great!  :)

Will you be making it 1:1 scale?

1:1 would result in making an ArmA-unhandling map, you know... Mogadishu it's about more than 20x20km extended :D

Well I think it's theoretically possible if you used a conservative approach to city layout in conjunction with highly optimized objects. PMC already did a rudimentary 1:1 scale Mogadishu map, although this map only contained buildings and no street objects, it showed that it isn't impossible.

I leaned forward to give her a kiss on the cheek and as I lay back to relax, I turned to my left and noticed my closet slightly open. To my shock there was a hand holding on to the door. It carefully opened to reveal Bill Murray. He crept out of the closet and headed towards the window. He was so quiet, my girlfriend didn't even realize it. As he cracked open the window and put one leg out, he looked back at me and said, "No one is ever going to believe you...". Then he was gone.

yeah but as you can see, I'm the only one working on the map and objects models (I made all of them, plus some models made from bufferin)... so making a whole 1:1 map is kinda...brain-blowing!  :crazy:
but don't worry, the city will be very large, and will contain more that 50 house models! so less repetition between 2 nearest zones!

Hey I'm crazy enough to do it!  :D

Maybe once your mod is out, I am done with my current projects and granted I have permission to use your objects, I could perhaps have shot at it.

-edit-

That's a very big maybe.. :crazy:

Can't wait for this though!

after having finished Mogadishu (so after having added the minaret, the target building, the Olympic hotel, the pakistani stadium) will can think of making some MP friendly maps! ;)
don't forget we will always update the mog!

I 'm crazy to do it too, but my problem is that i don't have a good GPU card to run buldozzer smooth...if only BI made visitor3 capable to handle wireframed models... :wall:

One thing that i was thinking some days ago:
It's posible to make another tipe of crash? I mean, when a helicopter is hit i doesn't blow up in mid air, instead it would go down and when it touchs ground the heli would convert it to a downed Black-Hawk?

yeah surely it is possible, since via script everything can be done!
for the hummers, I was looking to make some destroying scripts... :)
in OFP I did what you said Benoist:
when Hummer has 40%of damage, smoke starts to come uot from the engine... when damage raises to 80%, also fire... 100% damage, the hummer is replaced by a destroyed version, bouncing some meters due to the velocity factor :)

The latest screens look awesome, very nice buildings indeed.

If i got this right, everything is on hold until ur island is finished ?

You should overthink that approach, imo releasing seperate addon packages (us troops, rebel troops, some vehicles, a demo mission + ambience soundpack, weaponpack & sounds) would be far more better than waiting for the whole mod to be released beginning of 2009.

As far as i'm concerned, some rebel battles in southern sahrani will actually look close enough to the BHD movie, so i'd release the troops first.

Just my opinion though.  :)

Can't wait for this mod, hopefully before ArmA 2.

Yura had a question that maybe some1 who knows could asnwer..

Is there already the Normal map and Specular map added? Might try that as the specular might change the lightning on the model so the current spot are not there anymore.

Hey guys,

Your stuff looks really great. I like that Blackhawk.

But i don't know why people are taking some ingame photos in such a quali. You should turn your Details up before taking screenshots.

And why don't take the minigun from DaSquade? That's a really great modell and texture!!!

well because
1) mogadishu is a Big city, so it will take a lot of resources to run
2) a uber M134 could be needed, but for now we want to keep the polycount low, so no more lag

:) anyway, my PC fucks up, so I'll never take good pictures at 1 FPS!
