Finally, it is complete!



Download v0.1:

Disclaimer: This map was made using UP 3.0 RC4, so make sure you have all the appropriate files if you aren't running UP 3.0.


Some pictures I gathered while doing research (useful for mission makers):

I was flying around on the stock Marianas map the other day and thought it looked really crappy and could use a facelift, so I began working on a mod version of it. Almost everything is done except for object placement and creating airfield points on my new custom airfields. More pics to come soon. This should be done before Christmas.





Old Orote Field (looks like a F***ing international airport)




New custom historically accurate Orote field:




Guam





Saipan





New airfield on Rota that previously did not exist, but played a part in the Marianas Turkey Shoot. Oleg neglected to add it.





Island of Pagan to the North:













The going has been slow, but here is an update. I've run into unexpected issues and haven't had much time until this week. Hopefully I can finish up in the next week.


New Tinian:

Many thanks Dave.  :)

Unfortunately, I'm missing the following texture: Trees\dlv_MTO_AlteredBush8a.tga. Anyone know where I can get it?

Just flew around and  .. WOW!  :o

What a wonderful Map, one of the best I ever saw.
Gratulation, its a masterpiece.  :)

Only one thing:
In the readme you wrote:
Quote
3. Add the following lines anywhere in your "all.ini" file, located in "\MODS\MAPMODS\Maps":

MarianasExpanded MarianasExpanded/load.ini






Many thanks Dave.  :)

There's a little error. It should be:
MarianasExpanded Marianas_Expanded/load.ini.  ;)

I just fixed the Readme error and also included that tree texture for those who need it. If you had a problem, just re-download the map files. Thanks for the feedback guys!
