Desert Maps

Post by DoubleDeuce »

Ok, I had to say it. [:D] Looking around n the editor I don;t see any reason why these couldn't be made with the current kits. Just need to design the base .PNG and then add in the elevation, coverage etc. Am I right in assuming that?

EDIT: I don't mean flowing sand deserts, I'm talking more the hilly/broken terrain with some vegetation that breaks up the terrain without any real, thick forested areas.

Maps can be made from almost any source to depict almost any terrain features or combat theater. At the moment there are only 5 elevations but that is going to change soon to at least 10.

Are you feeling the need to go to the desert? [&:] [:D]

Why yes, yes I am . . but probably not for the reasons you are thinking. Its a little multiplayer project I been thinking about. Just gotta make sure some other things are doable to make it work through, replicating usable desert maps are the least of my concerns. . . . .[:D]

I guess it would only require finding the right textures to use since the underlying map is only a .png and the real "meat" of the map are the things like the elevation, vegetation and road coding stuff.
