Iran (Kurdistan Province) (!!WIP!!)

[full star]

Gorgeous map 🙏🏽

[frigid monolith]

Thanks 🤙

[torn nova]

may inspire me to make a PKK faction, looks great!!

[crimson condor]

This looks great so far!

[desert raft]

Ooh decent!

[frigid monolith]

Do it! 🤓

[mossy solstice]

PLEASE RELEASE A AAS MODE FOR IT PLEASEEEE

[frigid monolith]

Yeah my buddy was just telling me to make sure I add some points for the pvp players. I was originally shooting to make a world for my team that does PVE but he thinks with the size of this world it’s gonna be great for the PVP guys

[frigid monolith]

Building placement for about half of the city is done. Full city should be done in couple days. Everything is gonna be Vanilla until all placement is down and the terrain has been placed. then adding the finer details will come in.

[frigid monolith]

Starting to work on small villages around the surrounding areas. City will probably take up most of the time. There is still the whole left side of the city that needs to be done and there’s another bigger town on another location that has to be worked.

Fields, side, walk path and then touching up everything. So once everything is placed those smaller things will get done.

[woeful field]

Add as many buildings that you can enter and have interactions with. Sucks having a big beautiful city you can only drive through or fly over.
Lookin great!

[frigid monolith]

80-90% of the building in the city are accessible. Every floor. All 12 floors 👌

[frigid monolith]

Would there be shrubs on the moutain side like that?

Also the city placement is about half way. Still needs a lot of terrain adjustments.

Still working on villages and main capture points.

[frigid monolith]

Extended the airfield. Warhogs were not making it off.

[frigid monolith]

I plan on releasing the map in the Alpha stage it’s in now for the weekend.

I’m looking for good and bad feedback. I know there’s still a lot of work to do but still would love to hear everyone feedback and see what advice and ideas I can get from the community.

Looking forward to see what everyone has to say. For everyone who is interested I am planning on making it public around 9-10ish CST tonight. Thanks

[frigid monolith]

MAP & SERVER ARE LIVE!

If you just want to go on my server, its open to the public. Go to multiplayer and search up this: "Spartan Team 6 | Iran | ......"

If you want to just download the map itself, in the mods menus just type in Iran and its the first one.

Enjoy and please send me some feedback! Thanks!

[frigid monolith]

Runway is still too short for the A-10 to take off. I may have to redesign the runway. May have to go on an angle with it.

[dull path]

May I have a link of the map mod 😊 I might make a map video again about your mod 👀

[frigid monolith]

Yeah definitely, let me know what you think. It’s on it’s very early stages but I wanted to get feedback to make sure the community feels I’m on the right track with it

{2F84DDBAF90AF544}Missions/IranTest.conf

[frigid monolith]

@dull path

[dull path]

Will do 😊

Just keep in mind I am making video in gm single player mode not in server so it might be diff bugs then server version etc

[frigid monolith]

Yeah that’s fine. I need the feedback on the things I don’t see. I’ve noticed a lot of things when it comes to tools and GM mode. 🤣

[dull path]

Alr 👌 and yea I get u when I was modding I feel same lol

[frigid monolith]

I need to see what people are seeing. If that’s makes sense

[dull path]

Yep understandable

[frigid monolith]

Marivan, Iran. (Kurdistan Province) Alpha is Public

[dull path]

Hey dude I look at the map and looks very promising but still see its very work in progress makes sense it's in alpha stage lol

If u want maybe tmr or so I can help u a little bit some knowledge I have about map making sense I did a little I mean little

[frigid monolith]

I’m up for anything. I’m working a 12 today. I’ll be free tomorrow and Tuesday if your available

[frigid monolith]

What are just a few things that caught your attention. Dependancies I am aware off. I was getting with another map creator and he was explaining that part of it to me. I was gonna go back and see what I haven’t even used to try and eliminate some/most of possible

[ashen crescent]

Looks awesome!! Keep up the great work!!

[tacit swan]

Hell yeah

[frigid monolith]

Thanks buddy 😎 you get a chance to hop on it?

[cunning stag]

Got a question brother, you may have put it in the chat but how big is this map? Also is this still a work in progress?

[frigid monolith]

Yes this is definitely still work in progress. I’m about week or two into it. It’s in alpha stage. Hoping to make it playable as soon as I can but it is on the mod store if you wanna check it out. The map size is 40km I believe. I can’t remember between this one and another I’m working on.

[cunning stag]

Okay man sounds good! Since it’s 40km will you be optimizing the best you can for console and possibly turning down render distance?

I mean my X|S won’t have really too many issue it’s just S I’m worried about tbh

[frigid monolith]

Yeah it’ll definitely will need to be compressed. Wouldn’t be to bad with Everon being 51km

[cunning stag]

Okay man sounds good and I appreciate the work you’re putting in!

[frigid monolith]

I believe my rendering is standard now. Max view is 1600, grass is 50, and network is at 1500

[frigid monolith]

Yeah I appreciate you commenting and showing interest. Tonight after work I plan to getting rid of some dependencies. But the map is right right now one of my own public servers for testing. Do you wanna go check it out

[cunning stag]

Oh yeah man no problem! Hell yeah good to hear! I would check out it but currently on shift, will have to check it out another time!

[frigid monolith]

Yeah same, 12hr today and then tomorrow I plan on taking it off and hope to hear some feedback soon. I already know tonight the whole airfield is gonna be redone. A-10s need more room

40km this map is @cunning stag

[cunning stag]

Ahhh so the map will be big enough for A-10s to fly around on? Hell yeah, for some reason I was think 40km was like massive like almost relevant to a 300km+ size idk why 😂

[frigid monolith]

To me it feels big enough. I’m sure others would disagree.

I wanna make a Death Valley map for single mission OP, and then I wanna make a much larger map for longer conveys and air time. Help people get more immersed

[ashen crescent]

Not yet but I definitely will when I have time to focus on it. Been bouncing around on different things. Want to actually spend time in the map so waiting for right time.

[frigid monolith]

Your all good brotha, I totally understand. My mind has already been thinking of the next two I wanna start but I don’t wanna get away from this until it’s at least playable. And then slowly modify

[frigid monolith]

Just want to give thanks to everyone that gave me the feedback to the map. Definitely took those things and made notes.

Also thank you all for understanding how early stage this is and understanding it is going to take some time. I am flipping between this one and another “easier” map. I plan to get that one out asap. When I get some screen shots, I’ll post it up on here

[regal mural]

Nice!

[ashen crescent]

I cant find it for some reason

[frigid monolith]

{2F84DDBAF90AF544}Missions/IranTest.conf

try this maybe? Or in mod shop type in “Iran” and it should come up.

[ashen crescent]

So i found it, download it and its dependencies, enabled this, however this is what i see when I load in :/

Okay, that was caused by other mods that were enabled not realising it

[frigid monolith]

Still super odd that you see through the mountains. Its all getting reworked as we speak. Im changing a lot. I really dived into the world of POLY HAVEN terrains so now that ive been able to do that kind of stuff a lot of these dependencies will be removed

[ashen crescent]

Haha yeah it was crazy how it looked. But once I disabled all mods that weren’t dependencies of your mod it fixed it. It loooks good by the way! Definitely want to see it finished!

[frigid monolith]

Well I encountered my first dependencies issue. “Just more buildings” deleted half my city 😂 and I think that was the one everyone was having issues with my map with. So the base just got a whole rework and now the city is completely being redone

[ashen crescent]

Oh geeze. Yeah it’s crazy how some things cause certain issues. Hope it gets figured out. Sometimes it makes you redo the area in a way you feel a lot better about. Some of the areas I like most come from mistakes, and being forced to redo/do it a different way than planned.

[frigid monolith]

Yeah definitely, I redid the base two times and the third time I’m very satisfied with. The city I feel is going in the right direction

[frigid monolith]

Marivan, Iran. (Kurdistan Province)

[floral frigate]

Is this available for play?

[frigid monolith]

At this time it is not. There was a dependency that had half my city deleted. It isn’t in the mod anymore. So I’m reworking the city. And the main base got a whole new overhaul.

[floral frigate]

Dang. I've been there. Sorry to hear it.

[frigid monolith]

It’s coming together though. New base looks great. Start to place random house and villages around. Oil refinery. The city is taking some time cause I’m flatten it in sections. The terrain is all over on level so it’s the easiest way to make it look nice. I plan to have it back up as a WIP by Thursday. Or in a month

[floral frigate]

Awesome! Can't wait to check it out

[frigid monolith]

Reworking the city, Main base is done. Just need to add small stuff like lights and terrain stuff. I have couple points of interest.

[cursive salmon]

What’s pkk

[torn nova]

Kurdistan People’s Party, I know the mostly for fighting against ISIS and for a free kurdistan

They are the parent org that had the YPG and YPJ

[cursive salmon]

Ohhh ok

[frigid monolith]

So everyone, as of right now the map files got corrupted. The backup I have is very early stage. For some reason I keep getting a “error 400” & it keeps mentioning a “thumbnail /images/PNG.

I have messed around in all ways I could and still no luck with it publishing. But on the flip side. All the feedback I received and the flaws I noticed can all be done right and corrected. A lot of the time was wasted on how I wanted things and the terrain I wanted then messing with blender. Now I have a clearer head of how it all works and how I want everything laid out.

That being said, I will continue to rework it all the back up file, I may take this post down post a new one when I get back to where I am now. Publish only when it’s ready to actually be played on.

I appreciate the support, I hope I didn’t let anyone down. It will get done. Just gonna be a little longer now. Thanks

[frigid monolith]

New one is together. Roads are down, Going to start on the Veg and shaping areas.

Last map was 20 or 30km. This one for sure is 40km. This one is A LOT bigger than the last one.

[desert raft]

Interesting 🤔

[frigid monolith]

Definitely have a lot planned for all the space. Definitely will be throwing in caves, long roads for conveys, random towns/ villages, and of course the central hub with the city. I’m always going to try and remake a realer FOB minus an Airfield. Unless enough people think to needs one.

Marivan, Iran. (Kurdistan Province) (Currently Being Reworked)

[desert raft]

Oooh sounds awesome!! Including underground base/tunnels too? 😄

[frigid monolith]

Idk if it’s possible with the tools I have. If I do it’ll be from a dependency

[desert raft]

Ooh alright

[frigid monolith]

New FOB, at this time is done, going to start working on the city next and some random villages/towns

[surreal hearth]

dose this map have a release date?

[frigid monolith]

At this time no, I’m deciding if I want to release it as a work in progress. I want the city to be at least done and then some points of interest, then possibly letting it go public as a WIP. It might to be large. I may have to shrink it

[surreal hearth]

WIP

[frigid monolith]

Might drop it as a WIP. I got a lot done today

[frigid monolith]

Iran (Kurdistan Province) (!!WIP!!)

[surreal hearth]

I’d love to download it and just have a look

You could do a Kunar and drop early but just leave WIP areas with the location names labeled WIP so people know

[floral frigate]

Samsies

[frigid monolith]

A buddy told me to put construction stuff down in areas still getting worked or need work so people can see whats going to be next. But thats extra work lmao. Im figuring out the GM and then Ill get it up. Would love some feedback

[surreal hearth]

Be happy to give some if it gets uploaded!

[frigid monolith]

Something is up with GM. It won’t let me free roam. And when I loaded it at unlisted to test it game side same issues. So I need to figure it out

[frigid monolith]

Map is published!!! Let me know what everyone thinks. 🔥

[desert raft]

Sweet!

[frigid monolith]

Enjoy 🔥

[frigid monolith]

Map has been updated. AI should be working, It worked when I tested it out. Added more buildings and FOB, started the Capital area.

[frigid monolith]

thinking about starting a new post. Ive been making custom patches and smaller worlds. So I might make something for it all. Idk I cant make this new image the primary image for the thread.

[desert raft]

Interesting 🤔

[lilac ether]

is there any update on this ?

[hexed cliff]

the author was banned recently. And many of his vehicle mods. I don't know any details though.

[lilac ether]

Damn
Anyways thanks for the reply

[charred wren]

it is on workshop?
