Title: Prokhorovka retextured, retowned, revillaged
Post by: cyberolas on December 08, 2012, 10:06:32 AM
Hi pilots!

  Another half year is over and I´m going to come to you with next map re-painting.
I´ve retextured the Prokhorovka map with photographic textures.
I would really like to thank for serbia map´s team, specialy for Avala. His fields textures are awesome! I was little editing it for me and use they as fields textures and as basic for villages textures.
I made a few types villages for Prokhorovka map.
  I was inspecting luftwaffe photos from year 1943 and I made a few adjustments in this map. River around Belgorod, train station, some villages and limestone quarry (Belgorod´s people call it "Bielaja ropa" (white oil)).
These adjustments aren´t exactly as reality - it will be never - but I tried to compare these photos. I moved between tree limits: reality, beauty, function, my abilities and default situation.

photo hosting sites (http://postimage.org/)


   
   Here is a trailer for this map. You will see a few villages, fields, Belgorod, Stary Oskol and so one.

I'm curious cyberolas,what is the Prokhorovka_RRR folder for? I have two Prokhorovka maps listed in my all ini
Code: [Select]
Prokhorovka Prokhorovka/load.ini
Prokhorovka(LAL) Prokhorovka/LAL_load.ini
Your retexture works for the first one in the list but,not the second.Is it supposed to?

Prokhorovka Prokhorovka/load.ini
Prokhorovka(LAL) Prokhorovka/LAL_load.ini
Your retexture works for the first one in the list but,not the second.Is it supposed to?

The second one is an old retexture by LAL_Rone. If you want to give this version also Cyberolas' textures you only need to copy the load.ini and rename it to LAL_load.
So both load.ini's are in MapMods/Maps/Prokhorovka/

By the way, it is recommended to do so because both maps use the same Prokhorovka folder as can be seen in the all.ini.
Without copying and renaming the load.ini to LAL_load you still have the old textures + default city textures but houses are lined up as in Cyberolas' version. That looks odd.

Beautiful map with great textures and simply superb villages and towns. I'v never seen these made so well. This is setting a new standard for populating with photo-textures.

It just goes to show how the old default maps can still be turned into great up-to-date maps that look fantastic in the latest version of the game.

The old maps had a big drawback in one way though - they were very basic and not very colorful when you open them up in FMB. So to do justice to this retexed and repopped Prokhorovka map, I  put together a new ed-map for those who like this sort of eye-candy and can't fly without flags and posters on the map. This is just meant as a colorful addition to the map.

Download the link and place into your Prokhorovka_RRR map folder, overwriting the files when asked. Note, that there is a new texts.txt file as well. I repositioned the village/town names so they would accord with the village/town symbols. That is why you need a new texts.txt file.

Aside from the ed_map appearance, this will not change anything else in this map.

Before overwriting, always backup the older files, just in case.

This is your choosing - if you want to use Prokhorovka as repaint, copy Prokhorovka folder (and you don´t need added anything to all.ini)
and if you want Prokhorovka as a new map, copy Prokhorovka_RRR and add
Prokhorovka_RRR Prokhorovka_RRR/load.ini to all. ini file.

Agracier - thank you for this beautifull ed_01 map!

Post by: BT~walker on December 10, 2012, 06:23:05 AM
Thank you a lot! Great Scenery !... As Tom2 says, I fly it with jets just for the scenery...
I have to point out one thing though : For people that don't have Kursk map installed (yet! like me...), they
will get a load.ini error dew to the fact that in the map's load.ini there are these lines :

Wood0    = East/Kursk/sk_LowLand0.tga 
Wood1    =
Wood2    = East/Kursk/sk_LowLand0.tga,-2
Wood3

In this case, you have 2 choises : a) installing Kursk map also or b) Rename the words Kursk to Prokhorovka (that is what I did for the map to run, though the intention of creator is to
have the kind of forest he uses in Kursk map...)

Plz correct me if I'm wrong, but works for me. Cheers!

To Cyberolas :

Or you could add in the _Tex/East folder also the folder Kursk with just the right sk_LowLand0.tga in it
and then update the first link of your map downnload. This way Prokhorovka map would be indepenand from Kursk map
& won't be any problem also if people install Kursk map or have it allready installed (just an overwrite of one file = the .tga)

As a BumpH file lover I thought it would be nice to add some BumpH files to the Kursk map.

https://www.mediafire.com/?ht83jfixq78v6o4 (https://www.mediafire.com/?ht83jfixq78v6o4)

Drop the extracted BumpH files in Mapmods/Maps/_Tex/East/Prokhorovka

Prokhorovka Prokhorovka/load.ini
Prokhorovka(LAL) Prokhorovka/LAL_load.ini
Prokhorovka_RRR Prokhorovka_RRR/load.ini

In path: #DBW\MapMods\maps got  "Prokhorovka_RRR" folder.

Also in path: #DBW\MapMods\maps\_Tex\East got "Prokhorovka" folder.

But still - I am not able to see Your beautiful map in QMB.

Should I put also second folder named "Prokhorovka" somewhere?

Thank in advance for Your help.

Try it out in the FMB first. It may be that if there are any old Prokhorovka QMB missions, they might not be pointing to the correct map ... that's why I'd best install it and then try it in FMB. You have more control over maps in FMB ...
Title: Re: Prokhorovka retextured, retowned, revillaged - LET´S DOWNLOAD!
Post by: Uufflakke on December 26, 2012, 09:03:49 AM
The reason why the new Prokhorovka_RRR won't show up in your QMB is because the missions are based on the default Prokhorovka map.
Rename Prokhorovka_RRR to Prokhorovka and it should work.

Post by: agracier on December 26, 2012, 09:37:35 AM
The easiest and least complicated way of resolving such maps problems, is to make a copy of the new map, give it a different name and then add that different name to the all.ini file.

Additions to the all ini are made like this:

[name you wish to give]space bar[name of the new folder]/[name of the load.ini file]

For the QMB missions to work, you'll need to copy the Prokhorovka folder of quick missions, rename it to the new map name folder. Then in each mis. file in that folder, rename the first line like this example:

[MAIN]
  MAP Prokhorovka/load.ini

[MAIN]
  MAP [new folder name]/load.ini

Yes, I want to diversify villages and this was way...

Up to now, this is decidedly the most successful and graphically appealing method I've yet to see. It helps cut down object count in an inhabited area, yet it looks densely populated because of the photographic textures.

This has been remarkably well done in the retextures here, Kuban and the others included. First class work.

Slowly, slowly, man, first:
write here please, what is wrong...you can´t load this map? or you don´t see new textures and still have old default version? I think, that mistake is in load.ini and so on. Try to write here something about it.

I use Prokhorovka as repaint (no Prokhorovka_RRR). Thats why I have classics missions in QMB (anything don´t need add)
But you can copy folder Prokhorovka and rename it to Prokhorovka_RRR in QMB folder. Don´t forget rename all names of missions in this folder and all files .mis - you have to rewrite line Prokhorovka/load.ini in mis file to Prokhorovka_RRR/load.ini

Hello!
We play online and your maps are fine (good job!!!), but some players have problems. We have server is version MO HSFX 6.0.17 and have a problem when a player chose to take off in a briefing on the map one airfield and online take-off on another airfield. (briefing airfield in F1 (Belgorod) on the map airfield J7 (Sergievka))

In what there can be a problem?

Hi,
I came across the promo videos of those new RRR maps and almost fell in love (not only maps, but also the movies themselves, perfect choice of music).
But then I tried to install them and after several hours no luck.

Prokhorovka does not load at all. When I try to load it in FMB I get a message "error: java lang.RuntimeException 'Prokhorovka/load.ini' loading error.
Then on Kuban and Crimea they work, but I think that some of the textures are still default, particularly airfields and landscape far away from the cities. [Edit] - this was just my settings, those work fine [/edit]
I have a moderately fresh (five days old) install, with HSFX 6.0.17. I disabled all submods, all other mods, even the expert mode, but it didn't help.

I have a strange feeling that I have done something terribly stupid (or that I have failed to do something obvious), but I have no idea what might it be.

If you help me resolve this, I promise to make a lot of screenshots in return :)


Edit:
Nevermind, its working now. I installed Kursk, also improved one or two settings in conf.ini... and it works! Don't know what did the trick though.

I will post some screenshots soon.
Title: Re: Prokhorovka retextured, retowned, revillaged - LET´S DOWNLOAD!
Post by: cyberolas on April 25, 2013, 01:20:15 PM
Oh, that´s fine, maybe there is some line od texture (in load.ini of Prokhorovka) what is depend on Kursk. But I´m little sad now, because I want to have work fine map, even if it will be alone....have anybody any similar experiences?

Edit: Oh, I see it:

Wood0    = East/Kursk/sk_LowLand0.tga 
Wood1    =
Wood2    = East/Kursk/sk_LowLand0.tga,-2
Wood3

Post by: SAS~Tom2 on June 21, 2013, 07:03:18 AM
Ernst, often it is simply a tree or something similar missing, trees goe into _Tex/Trees..aka Mods/#DBW.../MapMods/_Tex/Trees.

I can really recommend having Dark Blue World, no issue with maps and if there's something new the author will provide it.  :)

If you hit shift + Tab when the map loads, take a screenshot, the last lines at the bottom usually tell what's missing.

PS

Here are a huge number of additional objects..

Do you have Cyberolas' Kursk RRR installed?

If not, then that is (part of) the problem. In the Prokhorovka load.ini there is a reference to a texture from the Kursk map.

From one page back -

I am using IL2  ver. 4.12m with SAS Modact 5.11 ( freshly installed accordingly to steps in a guide)
These are my other maps installed as a texture replacement: Crimea,Kuban and Kursk.
After pressing ALT+TAB, I don't get any missing object errors, but "java" related like

java.lang.NullPointerException

This is a black magic to me.
I guess I did stupid thing wiping my previous installation.
I did not make any backup as I was thinking to slowly update everything.

Any help for that, please.
And thank you for responses.
Title: Re: Prokhorovka retextured, retowned, revillaged
Post by: Moezilla on June 21, 2013, 11:56:31 AM
I think Modact 5 installs the instantlogoutput mod by default. Can you check your log.lst file in your IL2 directory and grab the last 100-150 lines and paste them in a reply inside [ code ] [/ code ] tags?

Alternatively you could wait for someone else to post a guide to put the right SFS files in the SFS_AUTO folder and an updated static.ini. I haven't got ModAct 5 installed yet so I can't help yet.

When I now load the map in fmb,i receive an error and a black screen in fmb.

Hey Cyberolas!

I installed most of your maps, Stalingrad and Ardennes.
I tried to install this one as well but I'm having a small problem.

I try to load the map in the FMB, RRR one. There is an error, it's saying it cannot load "sk_LowLand0" file. I believe this file is located in: MapMods\maps\_Tex\East\Prokhorovka

I don't really understand why this is not running lol.

I pasted tex into map, overwrote. I pasted Prokhorovka_RRR. I renamed Prokhorovka to Prokhorovka_RRR in the All.ini file.

Maybe I did something wrong?

Please someone help me :)

Cheers,

C.W.

Oh, I know about it. Have you got Kursk map? There is way to Kursk texture in Prokhorovka´s load.ini. You can try second way - download Kursk textures, copy these wood textures to Prokhorovka´s texture directory and rewrite two lines in load.ini:

Wood0    = East/Prokhorovka/sk_LowLand0.tga 
Wood1    =
Wood2    = East/Prokhorovka/sk_LowLand0.tga,-2
Wood3 

...or similar...if you use new name with RRR...

@cyberolas: we are using your maps in our dcg campaigns. The maps are just gorgeous, keep up the good work.
In Prokhorovka for instance you got some airfields implemented into the textures , like north west of Belgorod.
On the other hand there are still some default airfields, eg, east of Belgorod.

Is there a way that I could exchange the default airfields with maybe an alpha layer?
My intention is not to use the default airstrips. The "real ones" look so much better and create lot of imersion.
Title: Re: Prokhorovka retextured, retowned, revillaged
Post by: cyberolas on August 22, 2014, 06:23:48 PM
Hm, I know what you mean. I use one slot in load.ini for "generally_airfield" texture. So if you want to have it, you will have to open unlock FMB, take to there place this texture, delete airstrip and take there alpha strips. We have it in default game. But you can do only "big grass place" or similar shape of airfield.
