Hello everyone.

I have for you a few questions.

1. Where can I find these maps??? Original links don't work.







If someone could find them or make me download I'd be grateful.

2. Anyone know if there is Su-27, Su-33 or MiG-29 for JetEra v.1.33?



3. How to do your own maps in Il-2 Stumovik? As for the map from scratch, not just inserting objects. There are a wizard to create a maps?

[Uzin]

Reading Kevin's manual you can create your own maps:

[Zoran395]

For creating you own map, I would recommend starting with modifying an existing one.
After you read Kevin's manual Uzin indicated, using a copy, have a play with the different files and tools for map makers.
Amongst the main questions for creating a map:
- Do you want 1:1 scale?
- What capacity your computer has and patience do you have? (Starting with something small is a good idea)
- Are there textures you like and you could re-use?
- How much documentation do you have on the area you are interested in?
I started playing with maps only one year ago and I am at my third attempt. Check over there. This is not done by a wizard but long strenuous hard work. It is also very addictive!!!

Costs me an hour to find out where you got this pictures from ..
so PLEASE .. provide a link to the topics/posts when you demand something.

Iraq Map by Agraciere here, dl link is renewed now.

It took me just a few seconds to find out where he got the images from.   
Drag an image from a website and drop it into the Google images search bar for instance
https://www.google.com/intl/es419/insidesearch/features/images/searchbyimage.html

But indeed it is better to provide as much info in case you are looking for an answer. 

[BartTheMuscless]

Thank Gerax, you also Uzin. As for the maps, I downloaded, I have uploaded and there is a problem I can't save. I press the save, but not save :/ Any ideas?

[Uufflakke]

Not being able to save a map is because an object is missing or more objects are missing.
It means that the mapmaker included it on the map you just downloaded but that particular object is not present in your modded installation.

The find out which one is missing you can use the so called static ini checker:

Seishin:
If you are new to modded IL-2, I would recommend installing either C.U.P. (very comprehensive from WWI to Jet era) or vpmedia's vpmodpack...both come with many modded maps by default.
Both based on 4.12.2.
If you do not have such a pack, you would have to add all needed objects (for saving a map) manually, a bit more tricky.

For agracier's maps, one of my favourite map artists, same with Uufflakke btw,
I recommend (search on the forum=in the maps section):
Sidi Ifni aka agUff_ifni
Uuff Crete
Ag_Djibouti
Ag_Casablanca

..some of the very best MTO maps around.

Once we are there I also recommend:
WIP MiSp Pacific
All Pacific maps by DaveOD06.

Cheers
Tom

[BartTheMuscless]

Tom2 but in C.U.P I can't fly in F-16, F-18 and other future jets

[SAS~Tom2]

Sure you can. CUP has a Jet Era segment and jets which are not in you can add.
IMHO modern jets...well, this is IL-2. 
DCS or Falcon BMS is better suited for those. Our FBW jets are rather eye candy IMHO.
Try the Mig-21s, these are pretty cool..still a tad over modern given this is IL-2 but fun to fly with nice pits.

[BartTheMuscless]

Seriously? I did not have that in C.U.P. Only here's the problem that I am weak from English and it's hard for me to understand some of the words. As if someone explained to me step by step to start (best on what must be a version of the Il-2 Stumovik.), And then turn what and how to install.

[SAS~Tom2]

Well, as for that...it is all taste.  The F/A-18 even though not my taste for its FM, has a very very decent 3D outside and inside and even the FM is very sophisticated...wrong but sophisticated.
So, yes, you can have fun with jets in IL-2 and you should be able to add all modded jets manually to CUP.
You can do the same to vp's modpack, only requires forum reading.

You need the engine Mod 2.7 and one of the latest updates
The Common Utils mod
Rest as for modded jet readme.

Modding an IL-2 install is very rarely getting your dedicated taste delivered as one package, usually you have to add a few mods of your liking.
This forum is huge and you will find instructions and mods en masse.
Have fun
 
Cheers
