Escape From Sahara

**PrT Audiman** · 12-03-11

I have been working on it for some time, i believe im at a stage to add some photo's if you run it on full settings, fps is low but you dont get quality with high fps anyway so no complaining. and you can adjust the vegetation levels in the config, i would like to thank LFJ-Hutch and DeGa for the help with adding the trees and LfJ Hutch for the trees themselves.

Dont ask for a release date. or how long...

Is it going to have sand traps where half the vehicle sinks in sand and you have to get a crane or tow truck to get your car out?

Good looking map so far

It would be nice to see some variation in the textures/vegetation. The endless tiling of textures looks a bit odd and can be a bit boring to be honest. Have you though of optimizing it by perhaps removing trees that are off the main roads, rather than extremely dense trees/shrubs everywhere? 12FPS really is not a great framerate.
It does look pretty good, but perhaps a bit rough around the edges-- as a W.I.P should be.

well there is a lot of variation of the grass and trees not so much, but they are closely coloured as in a desert you dont have differnet types of colours, cactuses are green some of them are yellow, but the grass is all yellow as far as im aware, i can show you more detailed pictures of the grass, but the trees are off the road and they always grow in groups, there not thick there are about 4 trees per group or more, some pictures soon to show you

showing the different types of vegetation, i would like to say that the pictures of the dense trees was the forest

Looks very nice

I like the sand texture you added. It looks amazing

Looks just like sahara.
I would suggest you let big areas of no vegetation, in other words add vegetation on small areas that could be like oasis. Except you don't want the map to refer to the heart of sahara.

or smaller amounts of the vegatation that i have at the moment, dont want it to be too barren
