it will be a little crazy
My job will be very difficult. but i will succeed
@mellow rapids
Oh wow
I pray for you
@urban tangle @late bridge mmmmm š¤¤š¤¤š¤¤š¤¤
Oh shit
Hell yeah good luck man
Is the map goin to be big?
yeah 4096
Im shitting myself and pissing at the same time because of how proud i amš«”
Is that big big or like Everon big? (Iām dumb asf so bare with me XD)
I too have questions kiok if you don't mind me asking
I believe that's 4 kilometers
you can ask
4096 = 64x64 km?
Gee wiz
Not even sure reforger can handle a detailed map of that size tbh. Especially with all the custom modelling needed
Maybe by the time it is done, reforger will be more powerful lol
First question that maybe some others are wondering, will you do an outer bit of the map with a military base, maybe an airport base and a highway/freeway around certain parts?
Unless its a 4x4 map, maybe, but the city of fallujah is like 9km2 itself
GYAT
GYAT
GYAT
I tried taking my hand at Making Fallujah
i swear @fading grove is going create every province of afghan and merge them
Got 6 blocks and a police station done then gave up, was 25x25 KM at the time with both the city itself and an airfield, a gulf, and many small villages, for every type of insertion method/fight imaginable
Can't wait to see this map recreated in all it's glory
This iraq bro
i forgot fallujah was in iraq
Oh this'll be fun
Letās get it
once u get this done we gotta get some 2004 maine gear
which shouldājt be too hard
This is definitely gonna be one of the best reforger maps
wait are you making the entire city?
god bless Kiok i just know thisāll be beautiful
Highway of death?!?!? š
i though reforger couldnāt handle that size?
Reforger can do up to 80x80 km iirc
Oh yes!?
But can Xbox handle it with mods? Now thatās the real question. hopefully it canš
well there might be problems for xbox users with lots of mods, if this is gonna be bigger than zimnitria then youāll probably be limited to only a handful of mods otherwise ground disappears.
Is this gonna be bugger than zimnitrita?
This is only speculation but im pretty sure map size is only an issue when that map also relies on modded assets within that size
are you serious. does it just disappear on xbox
chernarus run fine with a full mod load because the assets are either integrated into the mod or already exist
Only my take though don't know if it actually is true
on the one ukraine map yeah if you have too many mods the ground wonāt load
what are the dimensions of the map?
4096*4096
Meters?
now i'm skeptical. If there is a possibility that it will not work, it means trouble.
if thatās 426km squared that might be almost double the size of zimnitria
Maybe have to cut the map down? Xbox players tend to have a lot of issues with huge maps
I dunno why Zimnitrita is like that and it's been awhile since I tested it. But Chernarus runs fine with mods, so who knows
Chernarus was solid, just takes forever for servers to download it but worth it
It really is. I think this should be fine
maybe itās something to do with the dense forests and big city in zimnitria, chernarus is pretty empty.
Just seen this and this is hype! Now we just need some early 2000ās USMC gear and we are solid
I wonder if the dependencies for Zimnitrita freak out the game for some reason
Chernarus has loads more content than Zimnitrita, and covers over three times as much landmass in terms of completed area
I think it has to do with the custom stuff used in the map that the servers need to load
doubt it if it loads fine with them, anyways i guess weāll just have to see with fallujah, worst comes to worst maybe itāll be able to run with a few mods.
.
This size of map should be fine as long as the LOD settings are used correctly. If instead of modelling things at a base level, maybe use a model pack for prefabs which is a little less laggy.
Yeah I think the size might be ok, just hope performance is decent in a big city.
Cross fingers for good AI here š
He's most likely learned what not to do with Kunar
surely Xbox players can play on this map
Really do be the highway of death
Im hoping it does 
Reeeeeally excited for this. š
Wasnt that in Kuwait?
Went from Kuwait to Iraq
Yes
i thought thats in mw 2019
The Highway of Death was a real thing
Not really related to Battle of Fallujah tho, considering Highway of Death was a 1991 thing and Fallijah was in 2004
lfg
Yeah but honestly to me at least anything Iraq/Gulf War is super cool anything related to it I will gladly take in the game
Oh god my dad fought in this, I look forward to this man thank you
GO KIOK! 
Exciting
Arma 3 flashback
you can post a reference photo
I would cut out that island portion and the top left. And just have the city with some desert for FOBs ect
Usually the city will not be large, the desert portions will be large. It will be an airbase. There will be areas for tank battles. there will be desert outposts
The city itself is know for its mass. I think the biggest decision here is how large. We will wait how ever long it takes if that's the case.
maybe ur next vehicle could be a LAV25s cuz the marines from what ive seen mostly used lav25s but i may not be correct im definitely not a historian
Above all, the support of the community is important. In the next step, I will need to import the large building models into the enfusion emgin. Building destruction will come in the next big update to the reformer. With his arrival, I will start porting the building. now there are structures in the kunar land they village buildings remain small
Nice, squishy houses are my favorite
Tbh Fallujah isn't even that big, the reason it is known as such a big city is because when you kick in every door of every building in said city it might as well be a megacity from something like judge dredd
Fallujah is fucking huge wdym?
It's the density of the housing
Only about 5x6km
Thats exactly what Rattle was saying
Ah
Yeah on a map it's pretty small, ofc maps don't convey much and when yer fighting over every inch of it, it seems colossal
Especially when you as a 6ft tall individual is on street level
Yep
So a nice 50/50 city desert split
I would assume that Kiok is going to make the desert area surrounding Fallujah too. And even if it is not as big as the Kunar map, I sure that a ton of people in the community would be greatful
Yes, iām simply proving that the city itself isnt as big as people think it is
Nah it still should be fairly large for a map, iirc Fallujah is like 69 square klicks, and with surrounding areas likely more
36km2 approximately per my screenshot (6x6km)
Still that's roughly the size of the Kunar terrain, like I said, plenty of space for ops
Also if some of the greener areas by the river are included you could probably do some 2003-style ops
Did he mention how big the map is going to be?
He said something about 4x4 KM, but thats way too small to bring out the true potential of this Terrain, and the areas surrounding it (Like an Airfield and a Gulf)
Where would you fit a gulf? Fallujah is quite far inland
Heres a map of Fallujah and the area surrounding
If the map were bigger then the city itself could just be a setpiece to an otherwise perfect terrain
The only thing it wouldnt have is Mountains, which are unnecessary anyways
Open fields, dense palm forests, a large river, a huge city, multiple smaller establishments, and an airport
Yes
Doesnt stop it from having boats
I suppose
Yes
What is that
A helipad....
Dont you ā¦. Me, ill do a murder
Looks good!
?
Its a quick and easy way to mark a helicopter landing zone if all you have are sticks and stones
Its easier and safer in a dangerous area than a proper elevated landing pad, which in themselves arent used all that often
In short, its a helipad
Thats the crashed plane at NWAF on DayZ isn't?
arma c130
Nice C-130J
hangar ruins model (arma sample)
Did you make a mod that had all these assists for others to use by chance?
No. If you've noticed, I'm constantly adding to it.
NAH THATS FUCKIN SICK
Im guessing this will be the US airbase
Questions mr kiok, will you make more clothing or vehicles especially with this map, like marines or like a iraqi insurgent group that would fit in instead of the current Taliban mods
Phenomenal movie, you already know ima be rolling in just like that on this map
Will every building be enterable including the apartments
Heli spawn point???
Nah, just heli landing area (heli-pad)
Nice
Very nice
Looks nice
Looking great man š„
Canāt wait for this map
That looks like the operation rhino air field
i know itās the wrong country but hopefully one day weāll get c130s and can do something similar on this map
No man looks pimp kinda wanted to do sum like that love the map
.
@copper willow
šļøšļø
Dose anyone know someone that can make a pasgt with a marpat cover bc my unit is 2004 and currently have none
But arid marpat
Yall would be using IBAs /Inteceptor stuff
Also wouldn't it be tan or a coyote brown
Depended soldier to soldier, who had new gear who didnāt. Some woodland some tan
most soldiers in fallujah had a mix of camos
So best would be make IBA in tan/coyote brown and PASGT in woodland
some the old desert uniform with. Marpat helmets and shit it was all mixed
To be fair most of Early Iraq was in general, mix of marpat and desert tri and woodland and whole bunch
ye
Damn so it's finally becoming a thing? Thank you @fading grove!! I've been waiting to put tan/desert camoed clothes to use
I'll continue to impatiently wait for this map
Cant wait to ride in the streets of Fallujah and RTB to this airfield 
urban warfarw with Ashyls new stuff is gonna be insanely cool
This is gonna be 1 hella fun map
Cant wait to have the most intense street to street fights imaginable on this map
Homie isnt okay
Whyās he got the iron sights on the bottom rail š
A carry hand is a carry handle lol.
That's not iron sights, it's a Carry Handle
Just so happens the iron sights on older M16s and M4s were built INTO the Carry handle
every pic i see makes me want older marine and us army gear more
He did it to make it easier to hold his rifle, scuffed foregrip where he keeps his fingers steady between the barrel and carry handle, id assume
Carry handle, iron sights inside of it
nah he holds his M16 upside down those are his iron sights
I call it the Bren-16 lol
Oh yeah I've heard of this, apparently around this time they started getting ACOGs and such but were still required to keep their carry handle just in case the ACOG failed, so they would do stuff like this (this is how I have heard it, may be off)
I'm sure he put it there so he won't lose it if he put in a bag or pouch somewhere
what is the decisive point that it no longer loads? is it the size of the map or the objects placed??
honestly not sure, but it works fine without mods.
Kk, thanks.
I have yet to confirm this theory but it believe it might just be the mod including too many assets from other mods as dependent
So ur idea/thinking is, the mods do the trouble ? And the console canāt handle it
My thinking is that a map that already has to load dependencies on top of your mods to the console creates these issues. I only have anecdotal evidence of how it worked out for me though so I may very well be wrong
if it works for you, great!
Whether it's wrong or right doesn't matter, at least I have a direction I can think in should it come to that. Thanks
up to 32x32 is the current practical limit for the engine
it would not be a woodland pasgt those are already in the game you would need desert marpat MCCUUS desert marpat LWH and PASGT helmet and woodland IBAS and coyote IBAS
Mountains are super important for occluders and optimization
if the structures have good LODs hopefully we don't suffer too much
we will suffer, though
Yeah but can also be awful if ya want to build a realistic fallujah
Oh my bad, tbh I don't even remember why I said 80x80
I imported Japan (forgot hokkaido) scaled down to 3% which ended up being around 64x64 km and it imported but was not usable
Casually forgetting an entire island lol
God damn bacon š that a big one
the issue is when you go past the 32 x 32 km point on the map (middle of Bacon's Japan v0.1) and look around the terrain stops being visible
hence the 32x32 km practical limit
Right yeah makes sense
Operation downfall campaign on this would go crazy lol
more like operation dashboard everyone
I was watching some six days in fallujah gameplay I'm so fucking hype for this to come out
@fading grove good to see i'm not the only one still working on a fallujah map in the BI universe. š
That's from arma 3?
Yep! Iirc his rendition of Fallujah has almost no buildings you cant go inside of, and is about as accurate as the city can get to Arma with the building assets available for the map
Its a very good one
Is your mod in enfusion showcase? Or showroom?
Its on Arma 3
This Channel is for Enfusion Engine / Arma Reforger. So, noone working on Reforger Fallujah?
Kiok is
ah okay, i was a lil scared for the moment 
TrueDolphin was comparing the two by sending a screenshot of his Arma 3 map, Fallujah, because he was impressed someone took up the mantle, which is Kiok, making Fallujah
How many Buildings are on the Fallujah map?
On the Arma 3 one its over 1000 entities iirc
Whereas on the Reforger one we dont know yet
Kiok said its only 4x4 KM, which isnt alot of space whatsoever, unfortunately
Nice 
its plenty for an arland sized city
The city itself iirc was about just that size, 3.5x3.5 KM
depends on how far I go on google maps it might be a 10x10 tile but for the purposes of the video game you could do a bit smaller
I just hope the city doesn't have like world boundaries cutting it off...
Incorrect... Dayz.
And at last check... There's 300ish buildings across the map that aren't enterable in mine.
Over 4k you can.
It's a A2 port with permission from the og owner with..."poetic licencing".
It's really just nice knowing more than just I want Fallujah in future BI titles.
I would love to see any city map, but I'm scared a map like fallujah will be very flat
There are several reasons why.
- Most obvious - not to lose it (they have to give it back as they have received it)
- As a handy tool to handing over weapons after climbing over obstacles.
3.As a backup sight because acogs were useless on CQ encounters. ( like army has their MaTech-s)
Most grunts were leaving them on large personal rucks but as you can see there was a few š
By the time this comes out the reforger update will be out combine the PASGT with punkys Usmc mod ah smells like early gwot. A grenade in every room and a cap in every ass
Hell yeah as it should be
thread cleanup, infractions and bans applied, don't turn it into a meme again if you wanna stick around
Yall mfs only seen this now
might wanna look over the #rules before addressing anyone on this discord server that way again
What's to be the size of this map again?
Is it 64x64, 20x20 or 9x9 because I've heard mixed results
^ also wondering the same heard mixed results as well
i remember KIOK saying somewhere around 4096*4096 which is like 64x64km iirc
Yeah i remember him saying that but i thought maybe he shrunk it because of arma reforgers limitations
I wonāt speak for KIOK cause I havenāt been nearly active enough in this thread to confirm that - iād assume if that was the case though it would be due to some weird limitation with xboxās not liking too many custom assets in a map
this is in meters, so arland size
4x4 is 16km2 by the way, not 64x64 (where did you get this number from?
)
Oh 16ks squared, that sounds more reasonableš
american big brain maffs
in your units then 4x4 or arland would be equivalent to roughly 2990 football fields, give or take 10 cheeseburgers
thanks for converting that for me I was having difficulty wrapping my head around it 
But how many bananas?
if we're assuming that the average value of measured surface area of a banana was 181.48 cm2 (Some physical properties of full-ripe banana fruit (Cavendish variety) M. S. Firouz, R. Alimardani, M. Omid) then the surface area of this map would be 881639850.121 bananas

Lol
KIOK fr carrying map mods
Casually using a banana for scale⦠anyway, canāt wait for this map
Kunar is an amazing map, so already set the bar pretty high for this one
Just wait until the A-10 releases.. would be dope to call in gun runs on the city
wtf that looks sick, japan wars!
boys I know what iāll be doing in Iraq later
On top of the taliban ai that gives the chefs kiss definitely gonna take timeeeee
The kit is ready for Fallujah
Helmet not so much but I like the enthusiasm lol
Couldnāt find a mod with lwh marpat desert
Sheesh
Yeah hopefully someone makes a full desert marpat marines uni mod including the helmet, would be cool to have one with the goggles on top too like that
Agreed just the map the uniforms itās all coming together
Is that DCU?
Tri-Color Desert
Closest i can get to a Fallujah outfit
(Used Desert Marpat because it blended with the helmet better)
||mods it is on topic please||
Thats the same thing, Tri-colour Desert was the camo pattern for the DCU
If you want some inspiration heres a few camos from a couple militaries
first 3 is American DCU hasnt been used in a minute but its still nice. most militaries moved to kinda āall terrainā like OCP and British MTP or just multi cam.
Second 3 is british DPM
third 3 is Canadian CADPAT basically just marpat but a slightly different color pattern
Not to sure what this is called but itās supposedly Modern russian desert Camo, would be nice if someone makes it for these modern russian mods for these Afghan/iraq or just desert maps in general
Ah the pink uniforms
It would look better if the 3 Desert Camo Mod actually worked and i could use the Arid PASGT Helmet that would fit Vergyās Multicam Arid Clothes
was us forces still using dcu I know most of the Usmc was switched over to marpat by 2002-2003 idk about army though
Marpat didnāt get introduced until around 03 almost all of the USMC was using DCU in 03 and for the initial invasion of Iraq from what Iāve seen marpat wasnāt becoming popular until after troops had reached Baghdad and 04 and the first battle of Fallujah and all that
Didnāt the second battle start in 03 though
No we didnāt even invade iraq until 03 the first battle was in 04 the second was 06 if I remember correctly
Ok I looked it up the 2nd was also in 04 apparently, it started in November not sure why I was thinking 06
Same reason I thought it was 03 confusing different battles
Probably, Iraq was a very interesting conflict
Ramadi was 04-06 Iām pretty sure
I was probably thinking 06 because of either Ramadi or Saddamās capture
Plt Sgt said Ramadi was a hell hole
Yeah from what Iāve heard the whole triangle of death was hell
True Iām just hype to have a city map
Same
I'm going through a bit of a rough time. I have jobs such as moving to different cities and houses. I can't look at the map these days, I will continue as soon as possible
Best of luck man šš¼
No worryās! Best of luck to you
Good luck man
Whereās the stache from?
Wolf Gear
Thanks
Does expanded us faction still work it added the old 80ās us desert camo
I'm gonna need to know how to make that kit
Vergy Military Gear
Task Force Mattock Uniform
WolfGear2
PASGT Vest
All Iām saying is Iām ready to get shot down in a bird on this map and do a black hawk down even if I get fucked up by my command
M16 name mod
Appreciate
M16a4 project I believe
Im ready
Which mods are those from?
Needs the 3-Colour Desert Trouser and Shirt
Fr
Nice caterpillar
The Expanded US Gear from Reforged Studio + Vanilla PASGT Vest and Alice Belt + Modded Gloves
As you can see in the photo posted by Davey Jones. I feel the tri-desert color mod thing is way too bright for the desert maps we have like Kunar. The Chocolate Chip camo i use blends better into the environment
The chocolate chip works better but is period inaccurate, tbh we just need a better 3-color desert
Or use Vergy Military Gear
Ya itās super bright I wish it was darker. Mine also doesnāt work in general, the ai wonāt spawn to get the gear off of since it isnāt in the arsenal box
vergys doesnāt have tri-color
He has Arid Multicam
Italian troops are also ready for this mahyem šŖšŖ
M4 name mod
probablys rivers
It is not
Thatās the og m4 mod
Iām 90% sure thatās the one from the British forces pack
Same looks like outta the British pack
FN MAG*
Close enough
It's basically the same š„²
ShÄ„h don't say that. I did and I got slapped by multiple people stating it was nothing alike š
Oop
Yeah, one is simply better
And more Free
š„šŗšøšŗšøš¦ šŗšøšŗšøš„
May not be Mogadishu but Blackhawk down is getting recreated at some point on this map
Isnāt someone working on a Mogadishu map?
Not anymore
Nope
Oof I thought I saw it on the workshop
Any progress pictures of this?
Good things take time
Friends, I have to remake the map. I will reduce the size a little
Very nicešnice to know your back at it again
What size was it
To big for most players (aka Xbox and people with shit pcs)
Yea how big is that
Zimatra big idk I will look
It will be the size of the kunar map. already a single city
KIOK I beg of you after this maps releases release a mod pack reskinning the BDU into tri-color desert
Just cause you askedā¦
Never
Idk
I believe it's being done ready
it was already done by vergy with his 5th SFG pack, it just needs to be added back to the arsenal box.
ye its called expanded us faction
Zimnitrita worked fine on Xbox on my side. At least I remember testing it a while back and used to run fine
Is the map done and if so whatās it called
āKiokās Midwest of USAā
Is it out cuz I canāt see it
Good things take time
Fallujah
Yee ik i just didnāt see it I thought it was but itās not š
Still wip
you think itāll run good on the Xbox or really just for PC?
well considering heās redoing it to be smaller will definitely help xbox performance but seeing as itās gonna be a large city performance on xbox and pc will probably suffer
It could be a sideshow but I will still play it for cqb combat
@fading grove If you do decide to do another map you could do Stratis, it is small enough and itās one of the base Arma 3 maps. Or even an African map
Niger or Mali could be great terrains
Open Sahara with a few towns in between with a dense jungle area in a corner
Maybe a military base or two capable with handling helicopters or possibly a smaller airfield, now that would be dope
Battle of Mogadishu? Would be great for early 90s Milsims. Haha
Mogadishu would be dope, especially since this year marks 30 years since then
It's been 30 years? Jeeeeesus I'm old.
Yeah apparently this year marks 30, October tho I believe so not quite yet. Im young tho so it probably isnāt as significant for me as it is for you
When is this map coming out?
2025
Bet wait is this the real Alabama
Alabama?
Tf
He prob wanted to say obama but he flopped it and felt embarrassed idk
See that's who I meant šš (might delete later)
Let him cook
