@bushcrab as I said in North Takistan map, you should ask around ALiVE's forums/wiki/Discord etc. to see if this map has been indexed and added to ALiVE's version or you can test it out yourself and see if it works!

will this map work with alive

I see that it was mentioned in a previous comment that the ever-present clouds and haze are to make operating aircraft more difficult, but I feel like that balance choice should be left up to the mission makers. The constant fog and low level clouds are my only real gripe with this otherwise fantastic map.

Bala Murghab has potential, but it’s weighed down by too many unnecessary objects, especially at the two airbases and FOBs. These cluttered areas tank performance, and removing some of the junk would make a huge difference—especially on the winter map. In fact, the winter version runs best with low terrain details, turning off grass for better performance. The AI’s pathfinding is a mess, with roadblocks and river crossings getting them killed constantly. Also, the Arcadia weather system breaks ACE, making it incompatible. The map looks great, but it needs a serious cleanup to make it playable for anything more than casual ops.

A new satmap, current one is really flat, also would really love more vegetation and grass, rn it's really flat.

Maybe for the snow version having the rain be snowfall, I know other maps have done it and would make more sense

we want to see more and better afgan maps like areas in hellmad and etc

Announcement: I am going to revamp this map over the summer. What are some improvements that you all want to see? -FJ

@mr huaweal890 I agree

Thanks for making this map, the books are my favorite read.

NEED MORE Afghanistan MAPS

How can i access the Dust Storm Menu? Shift+F3 not working.

This is fucking awesome!!! You brought one of my favorite set of books into Arma. Thanks a bunch for the map!!

@natori_san heavy cloud cover is one of the features of the map to make operating/using aircraft more difficult.

Have some trouble with sky. It’s always cloudy no matter what settings I set. And I don’t have sand storm menu only snow storm. If don’t count this problems and some floating in air sand bags it’s grate map.

@AYE did you add the keys to your server?

It saddens me every time I try to put in my server, My server doesnt load :(
I go through 4net , any ideas what it could be @Finger Jam

NEED MORE Afghanistan MAPS

Hey I saw that you changed those shadows, Things look much nicer now! Keep up the good work!

great map! but why is there still no non-ACE DRO mission for this? :/

@Finger Jam

yeah ! I feel like they looked much nicer compared to the current version.

@Shided are you talking about the shadows on the hillsides?

Just wanted to say Great Detail and great job on this! One of my Buddies was actually deployed here with the 82nd and he remembered the tank outside lol

The new lighting updated leaves some weird black blobs all over the satellite map, (i suppose those spots used to be painted in darkness to assist the previous lighting scheme).

I really enjoyed the previous version more :(.

@I will have a look at it.

After new lighting update error regarding uniforms bei9ng greyed out and other messed up lighting.

after the new Lighting update iv been having a issue where uniforms have been almost competently greyed out and iv only been noticing this happen since the lighting update

Error has been fixed.

Map = broken - same "error" others are getting - Jan 1 2024 (welcome A3 team). Looks like a hot fix is in order sometime soon.

Same here, can not lunch missions

@johnnapier00 I encountered the same problem. Error saying "A3_fegetaton_f_exp"

hey after your update just now im getting an error saying "A3_fegetaton_f_exp"

Lighting update. Please repair/re-download the mod.

loving the map, brings me back! but i dont remember crashing through every bar gate, is there a way to trigger them to open? or be selected?

and where is the crashed c130?

Where is FOB Todd on the map?

Wow, an Afghanistan map that isn't a desert wasteland

I have to say this is the map with the greatest lore. :)

Great map, really do love the scale you have captured. Could I help make a better sat map for this terrain? It's the only thing that I think could do with some love. I can help source Real World data if we could collaborate?

Hi, I love your map :)

I'm using BMG(Summer) to build a mission and my .rpt is full of
"jbad_structures\walls\wall_l\jbad_wall_l_5m_curved_dam.p3d: house, config class missing"
"jbad_misc\misc_ladder\jbad_ladderhalf.p3d: house, config class missing"
and
"Bad simulation thingx, type Land_RepairDepot_01_tan_F (class=house), a3\structures_f_tank\military\repairdepot\repairdepot_01_tan_f.p3d"
Both BMG and Jbad have had clean installs and are up to date. I tried the Jbad legacy compat as well but no joy.

Sure thing. Enjoy!

Can confirm! Latest update's keys are working properly. Thanks again Finger Jam!

Thank you so much @Finger Jam

@[PTH] Citizen Battle all keys fixed.

Thanks again for updating the keys! But I am still getting one issue, its related to the billboards PBO - so you fixed the summer and winter with those proper keys, but not the billboards PBO.

Thank you Finger! Also may* - I am not 100 percent sure on that just my experience so far.

@will update keys.

Recent update my have broken keys; unable to connect to my DS with latest keys and mod files. Could be on my end with the application I use.

@isky you just need to subscribe to the JBAD mod in workshop. Link in under required mods on the page.

@A.Ares if you open up the folder you can pull those 2 mods outs... TFDC & TFSC

@Finger Jam mate, first of all thank you for this amazing map. I don't complain about the hardcoded scripts for the storms but since a lot of people use these keys for all kind of other things, would you consider changing them to modules? I mean, if mission makers want them used, they would have to place a module down and only then they would be available for use. And possibly a module for each storm or specific storm for each map variant!

Again mate, really appreciate sharing all your hard work! Take care, ArmA as much as you can and always return fire and take cover !

@honger having F2/3 keys used to run some cool script makes the map completely useless? Not sure I can help you with that. This might not be the right map for you. -FJ
