Wayfarer, Hasse, and MFair, I hope the new chart will serve you all well.

Happy Navigating!

Thanks a lot RAF_Louvert, you did an amazing job there. If only we could have something half as good for inflight, ingame navigation...

I wonder why the inflight maps always appear pixelated. Is there a way to take a map such as this and have it appear inflight, and with crisp wording/features?

Finally got home so I could open it right up on my desktop.
Absolutely bloody marvellous.

Cheers mate,

Very nace!

Great work! I've used your Verdun map a lot and love it so have been eagerly awaiting this one. Thanks for all your efforts - this obviously involved a lot of work and it is greatly appreciated!!

Inflight map is a HUGE single texture. When zoomed in even the smallest font will look pixelated. As long as the inflight map in WOFF uses the CFS3 stock texture, there isn´t a way to make a better map. There would have to be a programming change for that, something I don´t think it´s possible.

Huge thanks RAFLouvert! Superb map. Mine will have coffee stains soon I'm sure ^.^


Kind regards,
Dave

Leaf85, 77_Scout, Britisheh, Shredward, Shiloh, ArisFuser, thanks for the many thumbs up. Putting this together for you lot was my pleasure and knowing you'll all make good use of it warms me old heart.

Thanks Lou, perfect.

Thank you very much Lou for your hard work, the Flanders map looks very good. I already enjoyed flying with your Verdun map and am eager to try this new map! Thank you!

Excellent work Lou thank you for sharing them with us. Printed out the maps and used them today for the first time.

Cheers

Very well done Lou!! I know a lot of towns are off, but I never realized how different some were off compared to others until seeing your map, which shows the major junctions where the town would be centered and the town however far away from the junction. Douai and Lens for example... yikes!!

Quick question... That's not all the aerodromes mapped on it, just from the certain time period you were flying in, right? I think I see a few missing.

As written on the map, it shows situation on Feb 1, 1916

.

camel, Kaische, Beanie, chrispdm1, thanks for the accolades. Hope the map serves you well in your WOFF flights.

And, as pointed out by corsaire31, the mapping date is 1 February 1916 so there will be numerous aerodromes not shown. You will simply have to add those in as you fly your missions just as our RL counterparts had to do a century ago.

Happy Navigating!

Lou

Just back from my holiday trip, I found your great photo-recce-resulting map, Lou!
Thanks a lot for this great work - I will use it as soon as possible!

I figured I was missing it somewhere....

I think the maps are great and can now view them on my RH screen using Irfanview and WOFF on the left screen. The only problem I have is trying to figure out the relationship of the maps. I am flying a 4 Sqn BE2c from Bailleul Town which is map 21 and get a bit confused as to which maps go NSEW from there. I think no 28 is South but am often not sure. Would it be possible to have sort of index map of flanders that shows the position of each individual map?

Oh dammit, I retract all that because I hadn't noticed the the grid key map at the bottom of the page. So ignore this post altogether

.

Olham, you are more than welcome. Hope the map will serve you well.

chrispdm1, I am missing things all the time.

Jim, glad to learn you are making use of the map as well, and as I've already said, I'm missing things all the time too.

Now then, where did I set my coffee cup?

.

Coffee - yeah - I don't forget where I put it; I forget drinking it before it's cold.
Arghh - cold again....


Just did some flying with Kasta 8 from Brullin-Higny north of Verdun, and although the Roland C.II
doesn't offer the best downward vision, I found it easy to navigate after your Verdun map.
Following the road to Spincourt and the lake Etang d'Amel, and further down to the junction at Etain,
then west towards the river Meuse, following the river until the 45° bend, and from there heading
northeast to the Etang de Haut-Fourneau, and then back to my field was easy!
At least until those Nupes appeared!

I would like to recommend it to everyone: don't panik; try it out inland, away from the front -
it is easy as a child can bake a cake of sand!
Thanks again for that huge, detailed work, Lou!
