nah bro.
i am barely able top play bf1942 b/c it doesnt work on my comp and i have to play it on the comp @ mym oms house. i love the game, but i think its kind of corney and unrealistic. I think that if moh had a pacific theatre of ops it would be absolutely amazing. Im talkin official (or @ least really well done) SP maps, in addition to MP maps...
i just saw some new japanese skins @ mohfiles.com that looked phat. The only thing is- the only outdoor textures you can use for pacific mods are the ones from the Afrika maps. I think that if EA wasnt so fuckin lazy with thier MoH community support, it would be a lot easier to mod something like a pacific mod...

Pacific Atoll uses custom textures for everything but sand and grass. The palm trees are incredible and you snipers can climb them.

[MPowell1944]

Yeah I saw those Palms up close n' personal. Great work on those masked textures. biggrin:

[Balr14]

Thanks, MP. You should see it with all the custom bushes, grass clumps. and other foliage. Even has vines and big broadleaf plants. Nothing culls out either. And it still runs over 60fps.

[MPowell1944]

Excellent work. I think I downloaded an early version of the map. Any recent updates that I need to grab?

[Balr14]

Once I get oall the textures working and looking how I want, I'll make the tress and plants available for anyone else to use for a Pacific mod. There's about 100 of them all together. Way to many to use on a little island.

[MPowell1944]

That is true. The island itself was quite small. But the concept is one worth sticking with. Especially with the new textures coming into play. I look forward to any updates. Will you post the news on TMT when you do release the next version?

[Balr14]

Hope to have a new version by Monday. Terrain is getting sculpted to get rid of the sharp angles and add some more features.

[MPowell1944]

Sounds good. I'll be looking forward to the update. Thankyou sir.

[Balr14]

Also have textures for the Japanese landing craft. What you saw is a "proof of concept" map. Everything works the way I wanted and it's interesting to play, so it's time to get serious. The TMT server always has the latest version.

[Balr14]

Sorry, I don't usually pimp my maps, but I wanted people to know the War in the Pacific has not been forgotten and I'm real good at making those big outdoor views, so the Pacific maps I do are going to be damn realistic.

Balr14....PM me, ive got a few questions...

Hello everyone.

If you need anything, I will contribute. I have already made a skin pack for the 1st Marine Corp who fought on Guadalcanal. You can see it here:

In addition, I have submitted one of the skins in the pack to PMOH and Mod Theater so it should be available shortly. (Sort of like a teaser) ;P

I have been planning on making a Pacific Theater mod myself. Right now, I am compiling the research and building the website for it. Hopefully, I plan to have something up on PMOH by months end.

If anything, it would be great experience.

Pixel Pusher, see my post on TMT under mapping. I'm going to create a whole set of textures and prefab trees, bushes and grasses for anyone to make Pacific maps. Anyone that has something to contribute (skins, textures, prefabs) etc.) is welcome. I figure I'll put everything into a Pacific PK3 of about 50 meg, for everyone to use. I got a couple other mappers who will contribute maps, and a couple guys working on a flamethrower.

It's not a formal TC or anything like that. Just gathering the pieces together for people to use as a basis for Pacific maps.

[pixel pusher 208]

Hey that is awesome. I know I will definately be using that.

I am not planning on organizing a full dedicated mod either. It is more like a part time thing. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
