Blumax Online8Islands
« on: January 28, 2011, 11:27:36 AM »



This is the stock Online 8 Islands map which I have re-modelled and re-textured to bring the islands into the northern hemisphere, no new land has been added and the coastlines remain unaltered but the terrain has been dramatically changed and re-textured using images taken from the Scottish highlands, Scottish islands and English Cumbrian lake district to give the islands a very northern feel. Heavily populated in a very regimented, ordered German style these would not be out of place off the coast of Norway.

re-packaged and re-tested and should now be fully compatable with Ultrapack 2.1 and HSFX 4.1 

NOTE... For the 4.10 compatible version look in the ETO section


You will need these mods to make it work

Canons UK Objects
LAL Fortification mod
LAL Hanger mod
LAL Hanger mod 2
TOW Objects


I would like to extend a huge thankyou to Bombsaway for his excellent water texture that compliments this map so perfectly

Thanx!  :)
Quite an improvement compared to default.  8)
I renamed your map to net8islands and the loadv_3 to load, so now I can play the good old Pacific Islands quick missions on your map.  ;)

Hi Uufflakke i never thought of that.....Dakpilot has also left a post on the 4.10 thread explaining how to get the Net8Islands missions working in QMB also, i'm not sure if these are the same missions but it works for me ;D

If for you FRPs not so good i make it for you map no trees, be sure maybe some tree he hide still on map so replace only map folder to root/mapmods/maps and not to remove Trees folder from Tex folder.

I make it for you link on first post

By the way, you transformed these Pacific islands into an Atlantic map but it still functions perfectly as a Pacific map.
But then the northern hemisphere of the Pacific: The Aleutians.
In 1942 the Japanese army occupied some of the islands and it became on of the forgotten battles between Japan and the US.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleutian_Islands_Campaign

So it clarifies the Japanese static planestanks and ships in the quick missions for this map.  ;)
You can put this repaint also in the PTO forum section.

Colours and shape are quite similar to your map as you can see.

Thanks Uufflakke,

I hadn't thought of them as stand ins for the Aleutians but i see what you mean, Agracier has made a fantastic map of the Aleutians which i'm just itching to re-texture, maybe when the drawing board is clear i might seek his approval to do just that
