Sgt.Squarehead

What's the best size & type of image for those please @MOS:96B2P.....I'd like to make a few images (more movie posters etc.) for possible use in the modern games.

Soon.....Very, soon. 

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the support. 🙂
I've learned a lot since I laid the first tile down on Tal Malah. All of my maps are going to reflect this in the campaign, and stand alone once the campaign is done. Here's an in-progress shot from the west side of Kafr Nabudah in the meantime:

Impressive work! Took a look at the MiG-21. Culprit is that the mdr requires texture files to be lowercase. Suggest you incorporate sbobovyc's 'exporting checklist' to your written tutorial  https://github.com/sbobovyc/CM2Tools/wiki/Blender-plugins

Outta likes again..... @George MC, @Macisle, I owe you several each, that's some fantastic work! 

Allright .. we bought everything :)..
see you on the Frontline !

Great stuff, it’s really coming together in terms of a unified look.

Poppy Fields Forever

I think you might recognize this last one @Sgt.Squarehead.

Yes they will - banged a couple of large shell craters and a couple of junk Flavour Objects down … thanks for the idea and have a like.

Topography of the Lang Vei SF camp area finished. Map size is 3840x4720. Now to get started on decorating it

Why not PM @37mm? 
We're actively looking for map-makers, so I'm absolutely confident he will oblige (be warned, it's a big mod, you'll need to pull all your other ones to be safe).
Someone's been exploring the new FO's & special purpose TOE by the looks of things.....I've not explored those, beyond the boats, to date.
PS - Will the helicopters lean over if you put a dink in the terrain underneath them?  I often do this with vehicle wrecks, to make them look more, well, wrecked. 
 

I'm not so sure how useful this will be for this particular project however with a slight hex edit you can transfer CMA maps & scenarios pretty easily into CMSF2... from what I can tell everything is transferred pretty much intact, even the units & their AI plans (however, obviously, the units are all wrong... you get US Marine Vehicle crews as Mujahadeen RPG teams for instance).

Combing the Green Zone

View from the SW Guard Tower as Callsign Blueboy deliberately crash lands into the Son Tay POW Camp Compound:

Wow! 
I can’t wait to try mapping in this! 

Well, he did write that one too. 

It's a very quick and dirty conversion, only did it today. Briefings etc remain as Red Thunder version, just units changed and assigned the AI plans to them on a 1 to 1 basis. Just wanted a fun tank scenario after watching too many Steel Beasts vids on YouTube. You might want to try switching out the T-90A's for T-90AM's as the SEP's just steamrollered me when I played as the Russians.

Son Tay map is finished …

Quite a compact map 560m wide x 928m high.

The Oplot's ability to kill Russian tanks in the Ukraine, all the way from Thailand, is truly remarkable. 
 

An Abrams scores a double kill on two of my HQ tanks and a third has a lucky escape and then knocks it out, the mission is a converted version of the Red Thunder mission: Carius at Malinava, Tigers swapped for M1A2SEPs, IS-2's to T-90A's, T-34's to T-72B3's and the StuG's to a Cavalry troop of M3A3's.
There was a second double penetration in the game later too, but it only destroyed the first tank, leaving the second with damaged tracks, the distance between the two tanks in that case was much further (several hundred meters). The shot in this video passed through the first tank, at least two buildings and exited the second T-72 at its rear. Not sure the second tank shouldn't have just been immobilized, but whatever. Still cool, and I should have noted the positions before the turn started as I knew the Abrams was coming the previous turn.
 

Not an exact match but you get the idea:

Compound and road orientation was an issue for this one hence the imperfect match, but good enough for government work as they say.

Here's another of the delta:

Meh! 
Not too happy with the jungle in the background.....Back to adding foliage.
