Because it was said before the 0.8 release (last year) that they don't use desert camo... :/

Pretty... pretty badass.

Too bad you can't take it for a trip to check out the front, but this will do fine to bring even more atmosphere to PR.

ye, it was also said that the Strykers would never have a tan camo for classified reasons but now they seem to be popping out.

ye, main reason for it is it would be unrealistic for them to move during commanding a battle and not very good for gameplay if the commander was going on a joy ride when he was meant to be commanding

Bollocks, rhino.

Make the actual map a seperate texture, but DONT put it in any generic object zip file. To get a unique texture for each map you then need to load the texture via map-specific client file.

Also, sinse the texture will be the same name for each map, you can simply edit the batch file you use to pack the maps so that the texture needed is generated from the minimap directly. It can simply be a copy of the smallest minimap.

Looking at Qinling, I see the smallest is a 1024x1024 pixel, 406kB image. An extra 20 of those would add a tiny 8MB to the DL size. Compare that with a levels folder size of OVER 2000MB, and a total DL size which is probably over 3GB and the levels folder size is increased by 0.4%, probably less in reality because a 1024px image is very big for a small map that few people will see.


EDIT:
If for some retarded reason you need a generic texture loaded gnerally for this to work, thats no problem. You simply need appropriate texture suffixes on the map-loaded texture. Its really not hard on maps that already have a suffix, and you can very easily add a dummy suffix for other maps so that default textures are used except for this map texture. Simple.

yes you can include the textures into each map but its a lot of work to start off with without even thinking of making each texture.

All the textures that contain the map put together upto 3.5mbs, times that by 25 and it comes to 87mbs, that's around the size of a map, and while not even 20mbs wouldn't seem small its much bigger than it sounds as if you keep on making little things like that go by the mod ends up being 20gbs.

If you make each of the textures for every map then I might consider it, keep in mind they need to be in full ISO map format.
