A huge map with realistic mountain terrain. Neat to walk around in. It's also good for testing vehicles, and it doesn't require any games, since the textures are custom.

Sadly, no AI nodes or 3D skybox*.

*techically, there IS a 3D skybox, but it's only to blend the fog with the sky and has no terrain in it.

Nerdspeak:
This monster was made in the L3DT terrain generator, which I took the heightmap from and converted into 768 displacements with Dispgen. Then, I put the 4096 by 4096 texture generated by L3DT on top of the entire map (along with a repeating detail texture to keep it looking non-horrible when up close). It was an incredible learning experience, since it was the first time I made a map with an outside program, first time I made a custom texture, and the first time I packaged custom content into an upload. Of course, there's a lot I could have done better.

++THINGS COMING IN NEXT MAP++
- AI Nodes
- Custom Blend Textures (ditching the giant map-covering texture)
- 3d Skybox
- Structures and roads
- Optimization (thus far, I have never optimised a map)
- A file size that'll make me wish I had Google Fiber
