Mapfact has released their long awaited DAC v2.0 by Silola on the BI Forums. Mapfact has also published a comprehensive document about DAC v2.0 to be found here on Mapfact web site.
Two years after the release of DAC V1.0 for OFP, we are glad to announce DAC V2.0 is ready to be downloaded by you, though the development took more time, than we thought.
DAC (the short version for "Dynamic-AI-Creator") is a large-scale script project by Silola.
In (so called) "AI-zones", waypoints and units of different categories and sides are being generated. If you play a mission using DAC, you will get a different game experience every time restarting the mission. This is the result of every AI-zone being generated every time, when you start the mission.
Furthermore, when using DAC, your mission will gain momentum and replayability will increase drastically in comparison with standard missions. Nevertheless mission designers have to spend more time in balancing the opposite forces and in testing their mission.
The script is able to maintain supplies, in a dynamic, but by mission designers controllable way. The AI respawns at fully generated camps, so it is possible to create large, long lasting missions using DAC.
New features, such as global troup movements, or multiple de-/activation of AI-zones are taking mission design to a new level..
Features of the version 1, as for example the AI-Respawn or the DAC-AI-Addon, is also included but in better shape.
Even though already mentioned in the readme, thank you very much to all freelance translators! Without their help, a release of DAC would have to be delayed till the next year.

You can enter into the contest by posting your entry into [this forum topic] along with the information that is required as per the Conditions of Entry that can be found in the same topic. After January 5th there will be a pre-selection, and we will inform you of who has made it through to the final. We will then proceed to judging the finalists resulting in the numbers 1, 2 and 3 being announced.
The entries will be judged by prominent community figures based on the following system:
The number 1 gets three points, number 2 gets two points and number 3 gets one point. After all of the votes have been collected, all votes will be put into a ranking, which will result in a winner, runner up and third place. Should there be a tie, the least edited (so the image that looks most like stock ArmA) will win.
