Map mods?

[Veteran66]

Hi all

 

i see there are many map mods like green Kuban map.

So it is possible to make a mediterran texture for Kuban or desert textures for stalingrad map?

So we must remove rivers and add some new trees like palms and dersert bushes.

Buildings ana other stuff later

Hmm

 

 Well to change buildings is not a map mod that's adding objects 

As we've established in other topics we can't do this yet. We don't have a current plugin with access to il2 materials for 3ds max yet 

 

There are some map editing tools in the Mission editor.... I wonder has anyone tried them yet? They used to have no impact when one saved a mission

It is feasible. 

 

Terrain, trees, and buildings can be tropicalised quite easily via texture mods. 

 

I don't know about rivers.

 

We won't be able to make new buildings until either the developers release their plugin or someone reverse-engineers the .mgm format.

Hey Thrawn - I don't know anything about making buildings so I wasn't paying attention to exactly where it was when I saw it, but I did see a post on these Forums the other day where one of the devs said which plug-in they use for BoX, so that information is out there somewhere.

I believe this post was all that they revealed. Unless I missed something, no plugin has been released yet. At least it shows they're thinking about it.

Well, when I saw Jason post this:  Our Plug-in for BOS is for 3DS Max 2012 32 bit.

 

I thought that's what he meant, but as I said I don't know anything about making objects - now that I look at it more carefully it does sound like maybe there's a specific plug-in for 3DS Max 2012 32 bit that's still MIA.  Oh well, hopefully it'll all become clear sometime soon.
