2019-12-29 Started to paint satellite mask go PMC Agios Efstratios. Because openstreetmap did not provide any usable landuse and natural shapes I drew the forest shapes in terrain builder, now I used those to export shapes as imagery to create roads and forest mask parts. Ocean and deepocean (is th...

2019-12-27 Solved the binarize crashing issue by changing surface tile and texture layer size, now its been without any crashes over 10+ binarizations. Huge load of work to start two arma3's (yes, two), one has altis open in mission editor, another one PMC Greece Lemnos, I'll look altis locations t...

2019-12-26 PMC Powder Bat campaign porting from fake bis terrains to real world data greece terrains. Today I restored from backup all the altis missions, loaded them up one by one in mission editor and screenshotted the locations. Now I can accurately place them into the new real greece lemnos ter...

2019-12-25 Work on PMC Agios Efstratios continues. Opteryx did a great satellite texture ocean background. I went and fixed ocean bottom depth to much deeper which looks better as water color but also "feels like" real ocean/water heh. 2019-12-26 Binarize is (still) crashing a lot when adding objec...

Finally got binarize crashing stopped (for now, hah) in PMC Agios Efstratios terrain. Got LZ Connor, Camp Maxwell and Air Station Mike-26 all in-game.

PMC Tactical wishes Merry xmas and happy new year 2020 for everyone!

2019-12-21 Dating back to probably arma3 early days 2014 maybe 2015 I created PMC Powder Bat campaign for stratis and later it expanded on altis, long story short today it is largest campaign I've made for arma3 with 221 mission dirs. I have put just incredible amount of work and effort into this c...

2019-12-18 Finished all "PMC" campaigns and multiplayer missions respawn changes from group to base. Now still got VTE campaigns and missions left. Yeah respawn property has no meaning in campaigns but why keep the useless line there, so I'll fix those. I must say its been tedious job, yesterday sp...

2019-12-17 It was a long day of mission editing. Mainly did respawn="group" change to BASE, had no idea its going to take this long time to fix such simple thing. Yeah sure it would have taken all 3 seconds to just mass change that group to base with powergrep, but the whole process also involves a...

2019-12-10 Finished testing all multiplayer missions. Started windows dedicated server on PMC Gaming computer and arma3, then joined the server and systematically started each mission while checking out everything in the mission selection, role assignment, briefing and finally when the mission is r...

PMC discontinued all altis MP missions due this terrain being downscale version of the real thing, we don't do downscale garbage. PMC Powder Bat still remains as is because it also has missions in other terrains it would be too drastic statement to kill off whole campaign.

PMC web sites have just been paid for the next year again.

Enjoy PMC web sites & services

2019-08-24 Installed new mikero tools which always causes issues, then started to binarize VTE. Had several texture errors no idea about them as they were making no sense, like texture format errors not like texture being missing or anything, fixed those by resaving the textures with texview2. Cont...

PMC Iraq Al Qaim City Object Placement videos have been uploaded. Littlebird fly over of the new object placement (mostly new). First part of this city object placement was done summer of 2018, now finished the remaining section of that "main city". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NaLMm2A_TfI Drivi...

We met in PMC discord server, had a good chat. Just to let everyone else reading this know that I'm simply not ignoring someone posting here.

2018-09-28 VTE SOG Real War 1 campaign tweaking, tasks complete with friendly helo overflight so limited to land class, added player group savestatus/loadstatus, added player group units reinforcements system, plei me / fb falcon added american and south vietnam flag poles, plei me / fb falcon adde...

2018-09-25 Edited VTE SOG Real War 1 campaign and noticed that it uses so many outdated techniques or rather that I learned so much while editing PMC Powder Bat that this one looks way outdated. So I went and fixed few most obvious things that bothered me. Weather being the most obvious that shows ...

PMC web sites have just been paid for the next year again. It was a struggle to get money together because I had purchased new PMC DevSurf computer upgrade earlier this year, but I barely managed it. If anyone wants to donate to our web hosting and domain fees for 2019 - 2020 then please use https:/...

Yesterday started to test with terrain builder how many objects I can binarize to in-game use, the goal was to test in-game object count... however it failed miserably. As a background info PMC Balkans Kosovo terrain had 20.7 million objects in it already so I was trying to top that, well when I imp...

2018-09-20 PMC Powder Bat is really growing (hell it already grew) to be a great campaign with the amount of missions and campaign hubs, the latest scripting tech etc. What I'm really hoping that kind of being worried, that I can have altis, stratis and tanoa terrains in the next game engine, becau...

2018-09-19 Play tested PMC Powder Bat and noticed some flaws in it, started from a "campaign hub" Forward Operating Base and went onto a patrol in the nearby areas, well I could hardly see anyone, I played almost an hour and ran into two (2) groups even though I tried to visit some populated places...

I wrote this down earlier as you can see from the dates, but "didn't have time" to post before now heh ;) 2018-09-14 Did some work on Dynamic CE (CoC Command Engine) campaign, but unfortunately porting it would require more work than just making brand new campaign from just memories what the origina...

2018-09-17 alright Campaigns_PMC, Campaigns_VTE and MP PMC and VTE missions are sqs to sqf ported now. Campaigns_VTE , MPMissions_PMC and MPMissions_VTE . Still 137 sqs scripts to port, although that list does include the bad offenders, Bagels Tour of Duty and Unscripted War which has been for year...

This topic is about PMC mission development which is basically campaigns and multiplayer missions. I have been editing arma3 missions quite heavily already earlier 2018 so this is nothing new, just decided to start writing this stuff down today 2018-08-27 I started to play PMC Powder Bat campaign an...

"TEST 2" is illegal class name, you cannot have spaces in class names and it is also missing addon tag.

You need to follow PMC ArmA 3 Ultimate Terrain Tutorial exactly step by step, do not skip any parts, do not assume anything. That will fix both of the errors.

New releases are out: - VTE Core v1.6.7 - VTE Terrain Core v1.6.6 - VTE Terrain Pack 1 v1.6.4 - VTE Terrain Pack 2 v1.6.4 - VTE Terrain Pack 3 v0.1.1 - VTE Terrain Pack 4 v0.1.3 - VTE Terrain Pack 5 v0.1.1 2018-08-23 changelog: - too much to list, terrain pack 3 added, all addons packed with pboproj...

I finally converted the "PMC Vietnam" real world data terrains into " VTE Terrain Pack 3", this includes Vietnam Da Nang, Dong Hoi, Hanoi, Saigon, Pleiku and Vinh. These "PMC Vietnam" terrains are still presented in PMC Tactical ArmA 3 Terrains page and downloads are being seeded, however once I get...

2018-08-15 I started to VTE edit again after a break, there is new pboProject out which once again required me to reconfigure few configs to be able to binarize everything, but now its done whole VTE binarizes with pboProject v2.41 Had to remove bad p3d model t_cocos_bend_f.p3d from terrain builder ...

Besides CUP, well you said it yourself PMC (Opteryx Objects) is good stuff. Avoid that E76 stuff its not good. I'm not familiar of the other object packs, other than for example PMC Opteryx Objects is the only for one middle east theme.

Ross made real world data tutorial using QGIS (free open source) and its included in https://pmc.editing.wiki/doku.php?id=arma3:terrain
