Posted February 12, 2016 Nice in theory, but it would be basically impossible to implement. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vix, how this would work is using an API to convert Google Map's data into terrain, building data etc. which the game understands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 12, 2016 Problem, google map textures are not good enough for a game. And it's better to level design you map by yourself than making an algorithm which would take years to code X). I guess you thought to arma maps like altis, chernarus that are made from true places, no? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
