At the occasion of 75th anniversary of invasion of German troops into Poland  the map of most of the area is here released. Map contains five cities made according to contemporary aerophotos populated manually, other towns are autopopulated. There are more than 800 bridges and 40 grass airfields made according to Atlas lotnisk polskich 1933, and to  Fliegerhorste und Einsatzháfen der Lutwaffe by K. Ries and W. Dierich.

Picture stolen by Photobucket !!!

Map can be downloaded here:

Installation guide is included in the package.
Map was tested on Il2 4.101 SAS modact 3.06, DBW 1.71, UP3RC4 and Il2 4.12.2.

All friends at SAS and at Aviaskins who contributed to the information on the map and supported me by their interest in the development of the map.

Special credits to betatesters:

There is interesting set of maps possibly useful for mission and campaign makers, showing the day-by-day owerview of the invasion after 1st September 1939 :

Map of Poland 1939 Patch
of April 9, 2016.

The patch contains:
BlankFieldPlates added to airfields,
Poznan historical fortification,
several smaller towns like Pabianice and other added,
most of airfields tested by betatesters,
issues on takeoff and landing AI behaviour repaired.

The patch does not contain missing 3D objects in some town and city suburbs and humlets. These areas would be necessary to make consistent also in 1944 and 45w versions of the Poland map, what is quite huge amount of work, and, moreover, of testing. Therefore it might  be done in some future, after release of the Yugoslavia map.

The patch was tested on 4.12.2 SAS 5.30 Il-2 version, it may be downloaded here :

Hello Uzin,

thank you very much for sharing Your "REALLY GREAT" map of poland. 

And as always: A big  for your cat!

Regards, Gerhard 


Edit:

Forgotten, your map is running on 4.10 & DBW.

Nice-looking map Uzin, thanks very much. It loaded up first time in HSFX 7.02.
A question about the 'add to static.ini' list. You have quite a few Objects in that appear to be in the stock categories - Kiev, Slovakia, Houses of 46 etc. Are these additional objects for those categories, or repaints, or did you list everything that you used on your map, stock as well as mods?

:cheers:

Listed everything used. If you want to avoid duplicities, use the second possibility in the program Universal static ini checker ver. 1.3, namely , "Search doubled objects".

Just WOW !
Flying now !

Dekuji moc!

" Dziekuje Bardzo, Uzin !" 

Thank you Very much, Uzin !

Hi Uzin
Many thanks for the map of Poland.
I have a question or a folder 3do surely must be copied to a folder STD, and should not be copied to the folder Mapmods.
Thank you for your help
Regards
Seb

I think that it is at best to copy 3do folder to the same folder where your 3do folder resides. It was not possible for me to test every possible variant, you see. The standard way is therefore recommended, other ones  you might test by yourself.

Uzin,

Congratulations! I know that you've been pouring your heart and soul into this map for years. It must be a great pleasure and relief to finally release it.

Thanks a lot for this fundamental map!

[Chief_Mouser]

All of the place names are showing up in Cyrillic. First time I've seen this and it doesn't happen anywhere else in the game. I've switched the texts files about to no avail. Any ideas?
