BTTW-DratsaB Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 (edited) I don't know why it only just dawned on me (I have played BS after all! :doh:) But it was only the other day, when I went to see where my old Lockon A10 hunting ground around Sevastopol and Simperofol was that I realised that a large portion of the LockOn map is missing, I of course appreciate that we have a lot more map now then we did then. http://lockon.co.uk/modern_air_combat/?PAGEN_2=2#573 It does seem a shame that we can't use that old Crimean section of the map in the DCS universe. I did find this old thread discussing the reasons behind its exclusion: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=33917&highlight=lockon+terrain Now we have 64bit is it possible to add this to the current map? Would it not be worth even making a second map out it if it is too big to combine the two? I know we are getting Nevada, but the more terrain's the better. That's my opinion anyway. Perhaps people would even pay some money to have it included if it meant a lot of work to bring it up to DCS standard? PS. I was in the process of writing this before JB made his thread :P , must be some thing n the air.

Beagle One Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 I guess everyone mises the crimea...and it was the only ukrainian ground we had in the sim making a more believable NATO presence there. The kerch strait made a very good frontline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vampyre Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Eventually... it's too close to the map we have right now. I choose to abstain from this vote because my answer is not in the choices. I'm looking forward to a little more variety. Truly superior pilots are those that use their superior judgment to avoid those situations where they might have to use their superior skills.

Phantom453 Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Any new map would be welcome I would think, as long as it was built for EDGE. There are plenty of map location options which have been polled in this thread. http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=99134 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostDog Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Sure, if it's relatively simple to do. I assume it is, since that portion of the map was already created for LOMAC. Of course, that's just an assumption. Otherwise, leave it until the projects already underway are done.

Home Fries Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I'd be happy with LOMAC objects right now if that is possible.

JaBoG32_Prinzartus Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 Wasn't the requirement for 32bit compatibility, which is not given any longer (AFAIK DCSW is now 64 bit only), the reason for, dropping crimean objects in favor of georgian objects (airfields, etc,)? So why not just putting those objects back in? I bet it isn't that easy though, is it?

AKAIK there's "Theater Switcher" already implemented with DSC:W however not in use as the only map available is the Kuban/Caucasus/Georgia. With "Theater Switcher" one can select which parts of the Black Sea map are active or select completely different maps (i.e. Nevada when ready).

=Mac= Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 For Huey's sake, I'd love SEA so I could run the Mekong or around Cam Ranh or, with a fully loaded Hawg, how about right up Hai Phong to HaNoi! But for an Eagle/Flanker party, Crimea/Russia would be nice. I loved Sevastopol in LOMAC. Nevada will be a nice separate map just for training the Western birds. Europe would be nice for the P-51 and whatever comes out to match that. Not that it really matters. Years ago, our community had monthly online wars between Sochi and Maykop. The map really doesn't matter. AFM, and new aircraft DO!!!! Someone Puh-leeze get me a SuperBug!!! The Hornet is best at killing things on the ground. Now, if we could just get a GAU-8 in the nose next to the AN/APG-65, a titanium tub around the pilot, and a couple of J-58 engines in the tail...
