Nicholas Bell has released an update of his very nice and original Schmalfelden Map on the BI Forums. Schmalfelden is a map based on actual terrain in Germany, this is a 5120 meters x 5120 meters map, not an island - no water around it.
Version 0.81
1. Desaturated greens on satellite map and eliminated some of the whitest farm fields. I believe these white fields are ripe oats. The tan/brown fields are wheat.
2. Toned down the brightness of the quarry and the gravel pit.
3. Decreased the number of trees by 25,000 in the 2 woods in the center of the map and large portions (but not all) of the forests in the northwest corner. I have experienced improved frame rate. I plan to continue to thin out the forests.
4. Modifications to road network.
5. Cleaned up some road intersections. I am aware of others than need work.
6. Added road reflector posts on some of the roads. Unfortunately they are backwards from the actual German posts. Not much I can do about this.
7. Corrected building heights which where above or below grade (ie "floating" or "sunk")
Plus other miscellaneous corrections and improvements.

paragraphic l released the first public version of Solus's SLX Mod in the BIS Forums. This mod will give you a totaly new ArmA experience, as it changes almost everything in the game. For more information check out the readme in the archive.
Here it is; SLX Mod for ArmA the public release.
This mod is made to enhance the gameplay, make the AI smarter, effects better and add's some new gameplay features as well. Solus has been working on this mod for over a year and before that he allready made some awesome stuff for OFP which is all used and enhanced for the release.
This mod is not made to enhance performance, but everything is as optimised as much as was possible.
This also is made for both SP as MP but is mostly tested in an SP or LAN environment and as was shown with the SLX_Vehicles release, there might be some errors in that area.
Though it's called the public release, you might stumble upon some errors.
To write down everything that's added or changed is not possible, it's just to much!

Nicholas Bell has released a very nice and original Schmalfelden Map on the BI Forums. This is a 5120 meter x 5120 meter map, not an island - no water around it.
Schmalfelden is a map based on actual terrain in Germany, created using a military 1:50,000 scale topographic map (for elevation datum) and a Google Earth image of the area. I selected this area for recreating realistic engagements in a European environment which might typically described as "good tank country", terrain which Soviet Forces would have sought to exploit with their tank and mechanized infantry forces had the Cold War ever gone "hot"

The well known Sigma-6 has send us his Sigma-6 Vehiclepack. The addons are still unfinished and Sigma-6 would like to see his work finished by the community. So if you are interested in completing one of these vehicles please write him an e-mail (you can find his e-mail address in the included readme file).
The land vehicles will be found under 'civilian/Sigma Wheeled'.
Known Bugs:
Lights are not fully functional. Gauges do not work. Driver and Passenger animations are much less than ideal. The ship has even more bugs.
All of these issues are slated for future versions, but if anyone skilled in these areas wants to go ahead and update for these issues, do not hesitate to contact me.
