SFP: Wamako

Description
Editor Notes
This terrain consits of three island, the main and largest one is filled with objects but the two smaller ones are just recently started work in progress.
After the Apex release there been different lightning and blending of roads/ground etc that the island wasn't first made for.
There fore, consider this work in progress but the main island should be both playable and enjoyable.

What is Wamako

Wamako is a fictional African island with a mix of lush forests and arid bush land. The indigenous Orebro tribesmen have inhabited the island for at least 1000 years living in harmony with nature and there huts could still be found all over the island. During the early medieval Arabic tradesmen found the island and the Islamic influence could still be seen in Bakunga and many other east coast towns. They also left a religious legacy with a large portion of the islands inhabitants being Muslim's today. In 1868 French troops occupied the island and made it into a colony. The following 100 years the island was used as a naval refuelling station for the French navy. Fort Laurent and Fort Chambly was built by the foreign legion 1879 to be used as training facilities before posting to more hostile colonies. In modern times the island have hade its share of conflicts as most other African countries it was cough up in the cold war. And civil war have been raging more or less since independence in 1971. Because of this almost no major infrastructure exists on the island with the exception of the Kuban build harbour on the southern part of the island.

What to do on Wamako
Its strongly recommended that you visit the old town in Bakunga with its narrow streets and medieval buildings. Here you find the pirate princes castle with its high towers and imposing breastworks over the harbour. In the eastern part of the old town you find the amphitheatre and the ruins of the grand councils meeting hall. In the new town a visit to the blue mosque and the liberation square with its statue of the soldiers of the revolution. Angenteuil was the main city during the French times and the European influence is quite visible on the town. Here you also find College Wamako the only place of higher learning on the island. From here its also close to get to Fort Lourant & Fort Chambly both is open for the public. The island also has great natural assets in oil and natural gas and the large new harbour on the southeaster coast. The construction of a pipeline from the oilfields in the interior of the island have started and will be completed shortly if no major crisis erupt. For those that is more in to a natural experience there is countless miles of dirt tracks all over the island that connects the far out farms and Orebro tribal villages with the major towns.

A good idea but a lot of spots on the map clearly have been rushed (buildings positioned on the road, overlaping roads, some villages are just copy-pasted houses, etc)

I'd love to see an update on this beauty someday

Are you still working on this terrain?

I found two bugs. One is minor, and the other is a little severe.

One is in Bakunga harbor. The CUP school/office there is in too uneven terrain (it both floats and clips with the terrain). (Also worthy mentioning that there are quite a few houses and structures in Bakunga's streets, or just clipping)

The serious other bug is in an unamed city on the far east of the terrain. On the north side of this city near its beach there is a MASSIVE school that is completely blocking an intersection and severely clipping into nearby buildings.

But it does not change the fact that it is a gorgeous terrain.

@honger i cant promise anything since time is somthing i am missing more and more. But from time to time i like to do somthing on Wamako. The NE island is probebly not getting any love from me since its granQ lovechild. But the SE island i use myself for missions sometimes so there you should se some work from time to time.

@Grip you planning on finishing the last two islands or the project is dead?

Some of the best city detailing I've seen, but the map is let down with limited clutter and low res surface textures. Happy to help if you need it, as this map has great prospects!

Yes we could do a bit more with the screenshots totally agree. Glad you two like it. The southeastern island is shaping up nicely and i have done some more work on it that is not released yet, mostly expanding the stone desert on its northern part.

The map is really-really good, but bruh ... That screenshots. They say nothing about the map.
I was surprised.

Anyway, thanks for the map. Looks good, `ll try it with my Unit.
