hello guys ,
can someone (hope from ED) update me on the Nevada map status?
When I purchased A10C beta, many many months ago, I've been told that I would have got the Nevada map for free when released.
As far as I can see now it's not clear when it will be released and if I shall pay for it...

thanks
Alessandro


As has been stated several times before, the map itself is almost done (NEVADA). The long delay is due to development of a new rendering engine that is capable of rending the this map and its very high level of detail at acceptable frame rates. Developing a new rendering engine is a very long and complex matter. There have also been some delays due to some changes in staffing and the team having to work on some other projects in parallel. When there is new news, there will be an announcement. At this time, given the work on the engine, it is not even possible to run the map to take screen shots.

Maybe if Matt sent this to one of the many websites (like ours) to spread the word about the news, people would be better informed

Usually producers go out of their way to be in contact with other websites as a way to foster good relations and keep those responsible up to date, this way we would all be better appraised of what goes on.

I don't think it's fair to come down on someone for asking for an update. It has, after all, been 6 months since anything official has been said about Nevada.

Matt has always gone out of his way to inform the public as best he can with the dynamic nature of building a flight sim where things change by the hour, minute, etc. Try not to put a condesending spin on his posts as he does not intend them to be that way. Ask away but don't get a case of the ass when you don't hear what you want to hear.

Some very early work-in-progress images of the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) map within DCS World 2. Much tuning and bug squashing to do, but we thought you guys might like to see a preliminary look.

Very excited about the new mission editor. IIRC you should be able to now place any 3D-object onto the map-editor directly instead of a map symbol and 'hoping for the best'. This should really simplify creating a mission. It is how Flanker 1.X did it which, to me, is still a shining example of how things should be done in a GUI. Why ED felt the need to change that into something that we currently have is beyond me.

Anyway, Lots of things to like in this update. Looking forward to building a complete new PC, primarily, to play this title at the highest framerate possible. Now, if I can only get an hour or two of 'me-time' from the 'one-who-should-be-obeyed'. ;-)

I don't think that's confirmed - it is on the cards, a lot of work is going on to make it happen, but I've not seen it said it was coming with 2.0. Would be nice to be wrong though smile

Very nice, but I'm still sort of waiting on Straits of Hormuz.

The lone, narcoleptic coder working on this since 2012 has clearly been busy!

2018 is going to be a great year for DCS!

Nevada NTTR has expanded from 390 x 390 Km to 600x600 km

We often get the question of how big the NTTR map is and the area covered. We hope this image from the mission editor will help.
