Will their be a LARGE printable map (PNG, GIF, and JPEG) of the game map produced??

At least A3 and larger (11"x17" and larger).

I also have access to a plotter and have printed wall sized maps before (Very useful!)

A lot of print shops also have plotters and a large print is not expensive.

I really hope there will be one.

If not, I guess the community will find a way.

I removed the russian title in the middle and made an a3 size pdf out of the map. only 1 megs in size.

EDIT:!!

DOWNLOAD LINK HERE: http://www.2shared.com/file/zbMG2EvT/navigationskarte.html

There are colored, black and white + a large map that you can make by gluing or tape A4 size map parts together.

I can't read or understand russian... so, is it a coincidence find? Or is it the work of some very, VERY good Photo-shopper?

I've just done a "print screen" on the in-flight map and printed it onto am A4 page. I will now write in the names of the airfields from the Battle of Britain/10 & 11 Group map that I printed out from another website earlier in the day.

Just a suggestion Mungee, you can use the full misson builder map for airfields, I notice the one you linked to is missing Ramsgate & Littlestone which are currently being used for the RAF in the MP misson that the servers are using.

Not being from GB, or Europe, I am lost except for London. It would be like me showing you a map of my state of Ohio with no place names on it, and telling you your mission will be to fly from Wood County Airport to Mansfield Lom Airport via Lima and Bucyrus.

edit: updated map and download link included

I have been working on a large-scale map of the English Channel for my own use but you are welcome to use it if you want. It's a 10752x9126 pixel PNG, weighs in at just over 90MB and was generated using some of the Cliffs of Dover game assets. Airfields and major urban areas are shown though the map is still a work-in-progress and additional airfields, towns and other landmarks will be added in future.

There are a handful of known issues e.g. in some cases text label placement and colours need to be tweaked for readability.

Hi Mr Wooster,

I hope it's ok, but I threw together a quick 'deepzoom' render of this map, to make it easy to view on-line. It costs me a bit to host it, so not sure if I'll leave it up (or even if you are ok with it, let me know if any problem at all) but it's fun to play with.

Sure, fearlessfrog, feel free to use the map image however you want. That deepzoom tech is really impressive. You've given me some impetus to look into it for another project that's on the backburner, thanks.

I've fixed several known issues with the original map and have edited my previous post to include a new download link. The new version of the map now includes the western-most map tiles including the Cherbourg peninsula, has text labels for airfields and population centres in Normandy and has a few more town and landmark labels throughout.

The impressive thing about IvanK's map for me is the fact that there's a railway line between Shoreham (by sea) and Horsham. The line was closed in the 60's so it shows real attention to detail.

Just finished some final adjustments to the CoD English Channel map, including making the airfields more visible, highlighting the runways and showing their true in-game position, orientation and length which should make lining up for an approach easier, and adding new locations and landmarks.

A couple of sample images showing map details are attached. The map terrain and airfield/runway geometry are derived from CoD game assets and are therefore accurate representations of what you will see in-game.

As before, the final version is a 10752x9216 pixel PNG and is over 90MB in size. The map can be downloaded from: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=N5TH44FT

JVM

I will share it when its done. Just need to add the French rail system ... no idea on a timeline though.

On this I can certainly help you as I have the full 1940 French railway system of the game area (and even a bit more as the latter has slightly decreased since the original idea of MG) as a kml file.

I have separated the standard gauge system, the 1 m gauge system and the specific German military system developed for the big guns.

You should know however as far as France is concerned that most probably a very small part of the standard system is shown in-game, and most probably the 1 m gauge and military are not there at all (for now).

There are also many issues on the map itself, which I hope will be addressed later (like nuclear power plant landscape items, or 1975 harbors...things like that; some airfields are not completely well placed, and three of them should not exist at all. Some names are not spelled properly, and there are many other issues (devs are aware of all this, but corrections are certainly not a priority for now :-) )

Let me know if I can do something for you (if you know how to convert a kml to a string of map positions, it might help if your map can be geo-referenced)!

Using a tool called posterazor http://posterazor.sourceforge.net/ you can make a big map out of the map Wooster posted with a regular A4 or A3 capable printer. I just did it, now I just have to glue all the pages together :D

EDIT: If you get a runtime error in the last stage try to resize the map a bit. Let's say like 10% off of the original then it should work.

Thanks for the offer JVM. I have no idea how to Geo Refrence the map. Do you have a simple graphical plot of the railways or is it all in data ?

JVM
04-27-2011, 11:49 AM
Hello Ivan!

As a kml it is all in data. However you can select the line(s) you are interested in, display it on Google Earth and save the image in such a way that the totality of the line is visible as well as some landmarks: after that you can scale it in a Photoshop layer and either extract it as a color, or copy it manually.
I had to reproduce manually all the details (the track layout precision is usually better than 1 meter...) as this data is intended for the in-game landscape, but for a navigational map you can afford to be less intricate, so the manual reproduction method above should be quite OK.

Hi Guys,

I've taken Wooster's map and put it in PDF format. It's 3 pages wide and 4 pages long (A4) So 12 pages large.

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=V6JDRVQN

I was messing about with margins but didn't' have time, so there's a tiny bit of white space between the pages, but you can just cut these off or fold them.

I used posterazor on Ubuntu to generate the PDF.

Moggy
04-29-2011, 09:10 AM
Just a quick FYI (I'm sure you're already aware of this), with the new beta patch there is now a lot more detail on the map with more towns being named and a few new airfields like Westhampnett, the satellite airfield for Tangmere.

Beware of this data...it is of no use whatsoever (except explanations of planquadrat in the last link).
Most of the locations were made using darts from 10 yards away, and 2/3 of them are not even designating airfields. If you want real locations, tell me, I will send a kmz file.
Even MG who had this kmz file made some slight positioning mistakes, but admittedly small and not too many...
MG serious airfield errors are of a different nature (runways/L_T/O directions were none really existed, and usually not even representative of preferred axises, wrong shapes, haphazard hangar locations, no clear boundaries etc etc). Hopefully a revision will be possible later...

many thanks to the people making these maps, looks like it would have been a big job !

does anybody have experience having these larger maps printed at a commercial printer place ? is it possible for ex to have them printed on silk or canvas type material instead of paper ?

or is paper best and then have a thin lamination layer over the top (to prevent an often used map from tearing, or even allow erasable drawings to be made over the map for specific missions for ex)

JG52Uther

My own personal choice would be on paper, then laminated, because then you can mark the maps for missions (course, turning points, timings etc) and erase the marks afterwards.

ChicagoChad
It would be much appreciated!!! but In my oppinion a slightly bigger scale would be a little bit better. For visual nav 1:500.000 is quite standard in aviation. And for the TGT area you need a 1:250K or even a 1:50K

3in = 50km is aprox. a 1:650000.

I have a photocopy map which is 1:400000 and its very difficult to see the landmarks for LL navigation. Thats why I say that maybe a little bit bigger would be better

The Railways on the UK side are all hand drawn and correlate with period rail maps (Actual RAF Maps 1inch to 1 mile AIR Sheet 12 dated 1943) and in game. The Purple Grid overlay is as per the original UK Cassini grid that was used on Operational charts. Size is 4964 x 4220m pixels

Anyone have this map file for share? This Rapidshare link is dead now...
Here: http://www.abload.de/img/clod_withrailr3kut.jpg

But have a look at the maps and cards from Tom (http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showthread.php?t=34047), too.

How can you found it? :) Google translate?
These new things didn't announced here yet, because the renewed pumaszallas started only two days ago, and we don't finished the transfer of the materials, articles. :cool:

But, if you found the DR disk, I recommend you the russian flying computer, the NL-7 too (I upload these articles today :) ).

http://www.pumaszallas.hu/elmeleti-anyagok/repuleselmelet/navigacio/273-nl-7-tarcsa-nyomtathato-verzio.html

The using principles is the same as the DR disk. Here is a very good, long and profound document (english) of the DR disks versions, history, and using (by Ronald van Riet). There is a short part of NL slide ruler at the end of document:

You have Walmington on Sea on the map! (The fictional home town of the gang from the tV series Dad's Army).

Is that in the game...on the in-game map too?

Maybe this is an easter-egg by IvanK (he made this map) :)
There is no such a town in the game...

Yes, Google translate. For coincidence in the last weeks my web "pass time" is read about pre war Flight Computers, so I recognize your DR - I know these from vn Riet document.

Congratulations for you job with DR and NL-7 (I have found this too :) ), very well done.
I previously see some E6B simulators (a printable one is available in XPlane forum) - partial/poor done, and the Russian НЛ-10М and НРК.

http://www.aviahel.ru/arhive/?event=29

These two use pictures of old ones - is barely readable.

BTW - You know if are some kind of disk to calculate drop angle - for CLoD JU-88/He 111.
I dont like to use Bombsite Table2, Shturman, Bombs Calc to this.

Thanks the files, I do not know these disk/rulers. Is there any chance to obtain in a better resolution? Any known owner, or museum?

I see, the guy who made this NRK disk run into the same problem as I. Due to photo angle the disk will be inaccurate (conspicuous if you turning the wheel/ring). The difference was little, but i don't want to release my disk. It takes weeks to looking the right pictures. My luck, finally I bought an original DR disk, and i was able to scanning the disassembled disks (flat surface, 2400 dpi - 7600x7600 pixel :cool: ) After the scan, the vector graphics and flash programming was a fast work :)

Sadly I don't know any bombing calculator, but thinking about to construct one... The project still in a planning stage :)

Hi Ivan K,

I would like to use the map from
http://www.abload.de/img/clod_withrailr3kut.jpg

But without the Purple Dept. Of Defence Purple Layer..

Just a clean detailed map of the game terrain.
Preferably with a scale bar at the bottom for kilometers, Nautical Miles, and statute miles.

In fact I would use the borders of Tom's map

http://www.pumaszallas.hu/Private/VO101_Tom/Clodtools/AFBs_of_CloD_2_Overview_map_ct.jpg

with the image from Ivan K's map.

Even Tom's map has a sector overlay. Which is unfortunate as the sectors vary between missions.

TIA:
Dave Decay.

Thanks for the quick responses

If you fly on the Storm of War server I would recommend you refer to this map;
http://www.pumaszallas.hu/Private/VO101_Tom/Map/CLOD_map_BIG.jpg

Tom's map uses the same Grid-system that the Storm of War server uses.
