Sgt.Squarehead Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Tip for the sake of your sanity (assuming you are not doing this already).....Build the map with the time set to mid-day, then change the time setting when you are done, so much easier on the eyeballs! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liveload Posted July 15, 2019 Author Share Posted July 15, 2019 (edited) Hah! I typically like to get to the mountains early in the morning just before dawn, so I was taking those screenshots as if I was taking a trip there. Here's one from after breakfast: https://imgur.com/sGWooip The map is 2672 x 1936 meters. Edited July 15, 2019 by Liveload 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Wow, that looks great.....Seriously steep too! Looking forward to the finished item. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liveload Posted July 23, 2019 Author Share Posted July 23, 2019 Hello All, Hope everyone is having a great day. Without further adieu, here is the Blue Attack scenario and my newest map, Attera: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wb4y9c0cupkssip/attera - blue attack.btt?dl=0 There are many elevation changes on order of several hundred meters, a main highway meandering through, lots of dirt roads, and a couple hiking trails. Pack light, dress in layers, and bring plenty of water. Once the sun is up, the men will need it. Major credit on this scenario and design goes to Aurelius. He has been invaluable during the process of creating and tuning this scenario. There are three Red AI plans that are equally weighted. The map itself can be made available by itself if anyone wants it, let me know. Respectfully, LL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Always nice to see new well thought out scenarios... Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) Pretty amazing map (2 Km x 2.6 Km). The only thing was was confusing was that your Briefing Tactical map has South at the top rather than North. Took me a while to orient myself. (It would help if the convention for all scenarios was to orient tactical maps with N towards the top.)

Liveload Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 Thanks for catching that! I will correct that and update the download file and post here. The dropbox link won't change. Respectfully, LL 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liveload Posted July 25, 2019 Author Share Posted July 25, 2019 Thank you all so very much for the positive feedback. It really encourages me. I am currently working on a 3km x 2km map of Al Hamamiyat that is about 50% done. It's like Tal Malah on steroids. The town itself is right near Qasabiyeh, so I'm making another pass at that map to correct some of the elevations to be closer to the real area. It doesn't seem to affect the way the map plays, but it's a point of accuracy for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 You've done a great job of sculpting those mountains.....I'm messing with elevations right now on a map of similar size, so I know how much effort that part alone took. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much appreciated! Indeed, the elevations are quite a challenge. One thing that helped a bit was lighting. Changing the time of day can dramatically affect what is visible and reveal terrain elements that need attention. In the real mountains, daylight is short, while twilight is long and some places go almost all day without sun.

Liveload Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 Hello All! Al Hamamiyat is getting close to completion. For those of you who have been keeping up with events, this scene should look familiar. Respectfully, LL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt.Squarehead Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Err, no.....That's because you are in an EU country (for now at least) and it's a lawful requirement that they notify you of their cookie policy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 (edited) Exactly... and if one doesn't like their cookies, one cannot see the pics that Liveload linked to. That's what I was alluding to. I understand that these days, it seems like most (younger at least) folks don't care about privacy and are happy to broadcast their lives on social media and accept cookies etc. You do understand that one has a choice whether to agree to accept cookies (I hope)?

It would actually have been a still from a youtube video, although from your perspective I'm not sure that matters. A few more tweaks and test runs and Al Hamamiyat will be ready to go very soon. Here's some screenshots of one of today's test runs (timer has been extended since then ). https://imgur.com/kfQko3x https://imgur.com/6uxgKkv https://imgur.com/iPYxjEI Thanks for all the support guys!

I fear that what we are seeing is that nations are trying to censor and restrict easy access for people to information from other nations. Another example of new inconveniences/rising paranoia between nations: Trying to renew a passport while traveling abroad has gotten a lot more unpleasant than 10 years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurelius Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Some images to serve as a preview to Al Hamamiyat scenario. 120 platoon working on HTS positions T 55 softening prepared positions and supporting an infantry push Infantry platoon approaching the outskirts of Al Hamamiyat (the assault started just as 82 mm mortars started falling on their assault line, no casualties sustained) PKM pining down an infiltration attempt HTS infiltration group was destroyed by combination of PKM fire and 125 mm ОФ shells (note the foreign fighters leading the group) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
