NOTE: This project is still in development and cannot be found in the workshop yet!

Key features:


The terrain is going to be built for tight infantry combat in mind, and this will hopefully keep it's shape throughout the entire map. 

The current focus is a 15-island cluster in the southeast. Focusing making the  areas feel and look more detailed, rather than placing houses and forests here and there. 

Eventually, the plan is to develop two major islands that will host both urban and wild environments for diverse mission types, but that remains to be seen if I am able to continue this project that far. My hope is to at least release a smaller map at first and later on expand the map as the development continues. ```
**I will use this enf_showcase topic as a place to share my progress and also hopefully get some feedback in the progress**

How big is the underground complex?

dusty vault How big is the underground complex?

I’ve done two underground locations and those are small storage areas only.

The main city part will have an underground parking lot / sewer / tunnel areas

Good luck with the project. 🙌

Loving all these new maps coming out. I look forward to seeing how this develops 👍

Wanted to try out to make a custom plaque as well, giving a little bit of information about the real life location the map is based on.

Today managed to start and finish an entire smaller cottage island from the big island cluster (11/15 done)

Would've gotten a lot more done but windows crashing caused the island in question get 70% of its hand painted textured corrupt, maybe a fresh windows install would be a good thing.

Taking some screenshots currently and will share here momentarily 🙂

I’m planning to start and hopefully finish one of the cottage islands today, the middle island of that cluster will have denser infrastructure, about halfway done there.

I’ll take a screenshot of the island cluster later today

I am planning to keep it dependency free. Slowly building it when I have the time for it

vast oracle Jul 13, 2025, 10:23 AM

Will you have a raw version with no game mode stuff? We are looking for a map to use as the base for our Life mod that we can add to over time. Mod development is well under way and is a large scale professional project. Also would really like to work directly with a mapmaker on a custom version of their map if interested lmk.

#

Map is beautiful btw and perfect size. Really would love to use it.

vast oracle Jul 13, 2025, 10:44 AM

And any chance of getting a test version of it?

vast oracle And any chance of getting a test version of it?

Yes, I’m definitely going to be releasing the raw version of the map when it’s more ready, but as it is I’m afraid the area that’s done is rather small still, because I like to focus on the details rather than the big scale. It’ll take time till I have a version of the map that’s ready for a release.

#

I would really love to have more time to spend on focus to making the map ready for release. At the moment it’s a bit of a slow process

At the moment i'm once again in the super productive mood where i just want constantly build more of it, lucky enough to currently have the time for it. Will most likely have another thing to share later this week

One of the headaches I had when I initially started making the terrain was how do I make this piece of continues land into an island. Well, this morning I started exploring my options and decided to drop the ground under the sea level and turned into a cliffside.

vale crater Jul 16, 2025, 3:56 PM

#

That looks excellent. Not many cliffs that actually look natural. Well done

vestal meadow Jul 17, 2025, 7:09 AM

INPUT NEEDED:

**Option #1: **

Larger airfield at the northern island

**Option #2: **

Slightly Smaller airstrip in the center

Option #3:

Both: Northern being main airfield, Center being a much smaller gravel airstrip

React to this post with the number you'd personally prefer, If you'd were to play on this map

sullen timber Jul 17, 2025, 8:22 AM

#

how big is this place gonna be?

vestal meadow Jul 17, 2025, 8:27 AM

#

sullen timber how big is this place gonna be?

Option #2 Airstrip is rougly around 1km. Map borders from edge to edge are 12km

sullen timber Jul 17, 2025, 9:11 AM

#

I see, thats a good size map. personally i'd like to see both, but what will happen in both spots if the airfields don't go there?

#

also is the large airfield going to be military or civilian?. on top of that is there any military presence there at all?

vestal meadow Jul 17, 2025, 9:16 AM

#

This being for Arma, so military presence will definitely be sprinkled around the map, but not heavily.

If Option 1 wouldn't happen, it would be replaced with a sawmill/forest area.
If Option 2 wouldn't happen, it would be an industrial area.

Seems like Option 3 is the only option that's being voted at the moment, in this case the Northern bigger airfield (#1) will be the military focused one and therefore the smaller airstrip (#2) the civilian one

God damn its looking good. Any plans to release an incomplete version for us the mess with or are you going to wait until its mostly complete?

vale crater Jul 17, 2025, 4:22 PM

#

Could suggest one being military and one being civilian but depends on the layout and structure/plan of your map!

Thx. It’ll take some time before I am comfortable releasing anything, but making good progress.

I am thinking doing when it’s more closer to release like an “alpha” build, then “beta” for testing and then 1.0 version.

And of course 1.1 and so on.

That’s also what I’ve been thinking. Northern island being more military focused, and some smaller compounds in the bigger island.

Was feeling so unmotivated this morning but wanted to still work on the project.

Accidentally placed a river generator here and it turned into a pretty good inspiration what I should do with this particular spot.

Unfortunately life has happened and I've barely have had any time to work on this map more.
