Armed Assault

Things that remain to be done:

Zitat:
Sakakah is based on a real city in the norther province of Al Jawf Saudia Arabia, I found the city while scouring for cities in Iraq that could be useful. What I liked most about the city was the generally good spacing between each district, block and individual houses, so I though I might have a go at recreating it in ArmA. However once I realized how big it actually was I made a decision to scale it down to about 1:2 size, this was quite possibly a wise choice now that I see how much effort is need to even reach a playable version. It shouldn\'t really be called \"Sakakah Al Jawf\", but I felt just Sakakah was a bit dry and Al Jawf rings a bit better after the city name, but you can call it Sakakah or whatever you want to.

This is an OPEN BETA, I would like to make that very clear to people, this version does not represent final version at all, I hope to change a lot of things on this map before being deemed final. Purpose of this open beta is to gather as much feedback and performance data as possible from a wider audience, initially I had planned a closed beta, but after a bit o\' thinking I\'d figure it\'d be better to keep it open for the purpose of getting a vaster amount of feedback.

1. Implementation of custom content.
   
2. Implementation of Queens Gambit content.
   
3. Rearranging a lot of the city structure, this will be done according to several other factors, such as: Lag zones, addition of new objects/buildings, adjustments to height map etc.
   
4. New/more detailed Satellite map, current one was slapped together in PS, a real one was ditched due to having too poor quality.
   
5. Current roads are manually placed as objects this will be fixed.
   
6. Current height map is not very realistic, this will be looked further into as well, although I cannot promise implementation of real world topographical data, I will try to do something with it for future release.
   
7. Some doors and ladders are not working, some are though.
   
8. Packaging map with official tools and signing addon not done ( haven't had the time to check out all the new tools).
   

Although roads are screwed at the moment, I have been able to get several convoys through the city using waypoints, I would be glad if mission makers experiment on this bit to see how much different AI behavior is from default ArmA, infantry on foot seems okay though.

NOTA BENE: IT IS OF THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE TO NOTE THAT ROADS ARE PLACED AS OBJECTS ON THIS VERSION, THIS I DO BELIEVE INTERFERES WITH AI PATHFINDING, I AM VERY REGRETFUL FOR THIS BUT IT WAS THE ONLY WAY FOR ME TO COMPLETE THE MAP UNTIL RECENTLY DUE TO NON FUNCTIONING ROAD TOOL IN VISITOR.

Types of feedback I want:

• Location of lag zones.
• General impressions.
• Errors found, malplaced objects etc.
• General suggestions.
• How is game play? both MP and SP feedback appreciated.
