bushlurker 45 Posted September 22, 2010 (edited) I'd just like to mention that this tool - though it's aimed directly at Island Makers, has interesting implications for the wider community... Basically, for the first time, it's now possible for island makers to directly implement EDITOR DESIGNED layouts into their terrains... This means if you've made an airbase or FARP or village or town layout using the more familiar in-game editor you can now simply pass the mission file to an island maker and this new tool allows them to import your layout into the Visitor 3 island designer... So - basically, without having to install or learn V3, using just the in-game editor, its now possible for the wider community to directly participate and contribute to forthcoming islands! So although this actual tool itself is purely for island makers, if you've seen some upcoming terrain announced and reckon you could make the ideal airbase to suit - you can, without having to install or learn any new tools, and the results might just make it on to the final terrain... Expect to see a few terrain projects asking for contributions in the near future! B Edited September 22, 2010 by Bushlurker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bad benson 1733 Posted September 22, 2010 this combined with RTE (hopefully also for OA soon) RoadPainter, BIS towngenerator Module is the ultimate Arma 2 terrain tool suite. if u consider it being totally free it can easily compete with visitor4.:p we got all we need now...and "no excuses anymore" as shezan said too me right after he finished that version:D.
