PUBLIC RELEASE NOW LIVE with GM and Conflict Scenarios
https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/655C1A90DF5A2F28-VermontRadar

Vermont Radar is a 10x10 Terrain of East Mountain in Vermont. Home to the Lyndonville AFS formerly known as East Haven Radar Station. This terrain contains treacherous logging and ATV roads, a massive sprawling forest, hidden caves, guerilla grow ops, a few small villages, the US / Canadian border, radar station, and military installations.

This is my first time crafting a terrain. Using satellite data of the area, and staying true to the feeling of the Northeast Kingdom I intend to fully immerse players, giving them a taste of what it is like to be in this unique region. Do not expect this terrain to show any mercy! The East Haven Radar Station holds a very special place in my heart and I am very excited to share it with others in this way! If you have any ideas, criticism, or would like to contribute please feel free to contact me at any time! I look forward to play ArmA with you all in my very own backyard!

This terrain includes Game Master and Conflict Modes. ENJOY!

I have a server running game master right now. I currently have the terrain unlisted, but I'll link it here I'm pushing changes every few days.
Waiting to have a bit more completion before listing it.

I got banned for 7 days, so apologies to anyone curious about updates.

Pushed a pretty major update last night. Including a Conflict and a Game Master scenario. The terrain is now public in the workshop. I've finished the entire forest, and started adding detail to the north and west of the map. The actual radar base has some details, but is subject to change. This week there should be a very large update which will include a lot of details, more buildings and POI.

I currently have a server up running Conflict for anyone interested.

harsh acorn Jun 21, 2025, 5:19 PM

#

Updated Conflict mode to have more capture and supply points in the north and west of the map. Cleared all roads of debris. if I missed a road and you find one that has debris blocking please let me know.

Started adding buildings, cabins, Hotel and a Powerstation to the map.
Updated NAVMESH, Mapentity for GM and Conflict. A number of other small things and terrain fixes.

What % of the map is complete?

harsh acorn Jun 26, 2025, 1:38 AM

#

still filling in low land clearings, and need to detail structures but it's coming along as far as percentage, idk. It's playable, everything is forested, road network is pretty much complete.

#

load up the GM and fly around, its still pretty rough

#

I'll probably clear a percentage of the deadfall this weekend and fix the rock sizing in one of the rivers, and then finish off with more water ways this weekend

harsh acorn Jun 28, 2025, 5:13 PM

#

Major update got pushed today:
-Canadian Border mostly complete
-Satmap
-Reconfigured Conflict Points
-Updated Navmesh
-Cleared some Roads that were missed
-Most Buildings Staged
-Most detail in South, West, and North mostly completed
-Performance pass 1 finished, this needs a bit of attention, but the map works well on console.
-Tons of small fixes

There are also two servers now running Game Master and Conflict. You can find them by searching "Vermont Radar"

I'd love some feedback, so if you find anything to fix, change, or have any input at all please let me know!

I don't know if it's the map or my mod list, but the shooting sounds are weird on this map.

harsh acorn Jul 9, 2025, 9:09 PM

#

Modlist is my guess

#

My map doesn't modify audio at all, hundreds of people have tested/playing it and first time getting feedback for it. HOWEVER there is always a chance it could be the map. See what happens when you run it with just my map and dependencies. Report back to me if the problem persists. I'll try my best to help. I host a few servers running the map currently and have not had audio issues

#

Or search Vermont in server browser and see if the problem persists with my mod list on my server

I found the server you were playing on, it's the modlist. Poorly unoptimized, he had multiple audio enhancing mods that conflicted with each other.

There is a blank world in the mod, with no game mode already which you are asking for. I'll be pushing an update next week which has more rivers, more buildings, and some more detail where it is needed.

Will do. Going through a few and showing them to the team. I'm going to download this now and add it to the mod. I have it set up all modularly so I just have to change one line to use a new map.

Yeah we are getting rid of a lot of our dependencies also.

#

Almost done downloading the giant terrain core haha so I can put it in.

#

No ocean is one thing. Maybe could put a big ass lake?

#

Got a few nice lakes I see, but a bigger one for boating and water sports stuff would be ideal.

I'm staying true to the region, so more rivers and creeks, no large bodies of water. You can see the area it's based on by searching "East Haven Radar Base" on Google Maps. If someone wants to talk to me or discuss this map they can do so here, or DM, I won't be reaching out.

-Updated Map
-Cleaned some areas that needed de-clutter
-Started Planning Stanhope Village and Granby Village

Planned:
More Detailed Radar Installation (Trying to find/create assets in the near future to replace cobbled together radar equipment)
US Civil War Conflict Mode (If I can secure permission from the US Civil War Mod Team)
US vs Canada Conflict Mode. These modes would be seperate mods from the Terrain.
Stanhope, a Canadian Village to be built just north of the Stanhope Border Crossing
Granby Village to be built just south west of Tilman Logging Co.
More secret caves, there are already a few to find and explore around the map, but I like the idea of adding more.
Small homesteads in the North and Southern desolate areas.
Additional Guerilla Gardening outdoor Grow-Op's located on the US side of the Map.
A blackmarket indoor Grow OP
Refining Conquest Balance, and addition HQ Spawns
More Rivers and creeks on the west and north side of the map.

I have most detail ready in preparation for MANW! Will be making a huge push in the next few days to really tie detail together. Priority now is placing granite, and adding a few more rivers and creeks! Here are some top views of SOME poi's. There are tons of hidden caves, camps and unmarked areas to explore.

I have rebalanced the map a bit to make game modes such as conflict and KOTH balanced.
Enjoy!
Granby and Stanhope are also very close to being finished!
I've had a lot of positive feedback not only on game play, exploration, battle dynamics and especially performance on this densely forested map

Just pushed an update, this has a lot of performance fixes in it, I also fix some lighting issues, floaters, and started adding a few new villages and points of interest.

Currently I am having an issue generating the Navmesh for the peak of East Haven. Either the few tiles are corrupt or I'm doing something wrong. If you have any input or know of a fix please let me know. (This happened with the 1.6 update, everything was working fine before the update and the required navmesh regen)

I am planning removing dependencies for this map, as much as I like the content they add, I feel like they put people off from adopting the map. The map has a lot of potential but the headache of downloading the dependencies is not ideal.

If you have any input for what I should bring to the location please let me know!
