Rooikat

Summary

Semi fictional African map based on Tierpoort Adventure Farm in South Africa. A year long project in the making.

Description

Tierpoort is located in Gauteng, South Africa. The main heart of the map is affectionately known as "Rooikat" to the South African Milsim Airsoft community were many airsoft milsim events are held in real life.

This map is semi-fictional in the sense of using the terrain and assets I have built from the ground up such as local species such as Baobabs and Acacias to create something I hope all find unique, using the real world terrain data as a platform with artistic license, focusing on locations purely based on "fun" and nothing historically correct.

[Features:]

1. A hand painted terrain. Paths, Rocks, Tree placement, Villages, have all been carefully painted "in" by hand. (This is a long term job that never ends)

2. Custom foliage assets created from scratch. Species include various Palms, Acacia thorn trees and Baobabs.

3. Underground bunkers, great for PvP. Sadly the AI in a PvE situation like to get "stuck" at times requiring a GM to delete or move them. I hope to have this fixed ASAP but for PvP they bring a great dimension to game play. They do work in PvE but a GM needs to keep eyes on them. (Thanks to Springbok for these, we hoped to test them further)

I highly recommend pairing EO's Atmospheric Weather Mod with the map, you can find his mod here:

I also recommend Prontos Project Dingo mod for factions that fit the setting: https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/6230F240AD0AB81D-ProjectDingo

Rooikat and its work is under APL-ND License. This will change soon once I have released my Foliage pack as it has been R&D for over a year now on my own, trying to get these assets to fit with the vanilla foliage. I will release these assets when I am happy with them. I am not  "gate keeping" anything which I have been accused of by a certain community within the game for reporting them for ripping my hard work. Sorry. Not sorry. These assets will be provided as a pack on workshop when I am ready to do so. 

I hope you all enjoy the map as much as I have enjoyed the long road making it. Many thanks to Psyclone, Grimm, Ghost, Mumsley and Jay_ZA for helping me test this insane project of making an African setting. 

-Please go ahead and make your own scenario, I am just the map maker and suck at scenario making. I am using this one, crudely made for testing purposes:
