[Map] Red Falcon (4km) [WIP]

[Stemplus]

Well, about 0,01% PR players know how Camp Bastion looks, 0,000001% know how USMC heli ramp in Camp Bastion looks like, and 0,0000000000001% players know that the heli ramp is based on USMC ramp in Camp Bastion

[Rhino]

90% of players will know it once they've played Sangin a few times

If your making something new you might as well not make a direct copy of something already in existence

[lucky.BOY]

You dont have to copy helicopter ramps from maps that are going ingame, you can copy helicopter ramps from Google maps

For example on Jalalabad Airport, the one with Chinooks on it looks quite nice.

[Stemplus]

Happy now?


PS so Sangin will be released? I thought it was event-only

[Rhino]

A few changes.

[Stemplus]

Well the thing you did is make it more Camp Bastion like (heli ramp) LOL

The rest is just cosmetical changes, I'd figure that out when I would be making it, (no, I am not making this airfield yet because I don't have the model) I just didn't want to draw it on the picture ;D

[Rhino]

personally I would downsize the heli ramp big time, the main changes I made where from a realism POV, as a hanger wouldn't be so close to the runway like that

Personally what I would do is simplify the design to this:


I can't see you needing more than 4 helipads myself.

[Stemplus]

I did that but then you complained that it is too much like camp bastion

[Rhino]

I did that but then you complained that it is too much like camp bastion

Because it was a direct copy...



The above isn't a direct copy.

BTW If your going to fight me on this I simply wont bother trying to help you.

[Stemplus]

I am not fighting, I just don't get what I am doing wrong...

Hey, maybe take the airport from the Uruzgan map from Dutch forces! Looks really epic

Hey, maybe take the airport from the Uruzgan map from Dutch forces! Looks really epic

and that's less a direct copy?

[Stemplus]

What is the name of the 1000m runway from Burning Sands? I can't find it :/

[Rhino]

staticobjects/pr/destroyable/runway/ iirc

[Rudd]

afaik policy is not to use the statics I used there anymore, use the road static

roads/statics no blend (or something) runway

these are a better choice if you don't have a bastion style airport setup

[Rhino]

Indeed it is Rudd, but I'm hoping Stemplus is just putting these down as a place holder.

[Stemplus]

can I put that one for MEC base? I don't need any special ones for it, I only have a custom static for the Polish one

[Stemplus]

Update time (I am putting these as links, they would load for too long time):

No... All new/updated map's airbases need to use the new system as the old ones have serious issues with them.

PS. please post .jpgs in future, quick to download etc. Also you can post high rezish pics in img format in your mapping topic, providing they are not waaay to oversized images like 4000px

[Stemplus]

Well, I wanted to do the thing that you see on the overview (runway as object, and taxiways as roads)
