Description
Korsac is a 64 km² fictional terrain located in the greater Green Sea region.

Inspired by Chernarus, Livonia, and the conflict of the Green Sea region, Korsac is a terrain that aims to provide a modern take on the eastern european setting with the quality of the assets present in Arma 3.

The terrain features a main town followed by many sporadic villages along its MSR, with industrial sites and farming settlements out and about. It features a combination of condensed urban combat segments paired up with vast rolling plains and wheat fields, offering diverse opportunities across the board.

Korsac is an ideal playground for anything ranging from infantry to full combat arms operations, featuring areas of various density, from urban and claustrophobic towns and villages, to many sporadic settlements and open fields.

Hi! I love the look of the map, but I've been running into errors when trying to use it. Every time I try to launch it in the editor, it returns a "rendering command buffer to(sic.) small" error. Even when running no other mods. My GPU only peaks around 29% usage, so I can't imagine it's a VRAM issue.

Thank you for your kind explanation Vectif ;)

@Valmont Hi, I used kju's terrain lighting tweaking GUI to tinker with a combination of the parameters in the Lighting classes; I think the most relevant parameter for you is Aperture (Min, Standard, and Max) which affects how much light you allow into the camera. Though there's much more to the Lighting config and you should look into it all, as this explanation is very abridged.

For your use case, I would avoid touching anything other than the Aperture values, since otherwise you would be modifying and overwriting RGB configurations for terrains with any custom lighting, thus altering their character/mood; sticking to only modifying Aperture would be your best bet in my opinion, and all you should mostly need for a night configuration. Do bear in mind that you should do this with caution, as Lighting changes will only affect visibility for the player, and not for the AI.

This map is on part with Tempa's so there is that, matching the best map maker in Arma history. Quick question, how do you achieve - Bright nights on clear full moon? I want to do a mod for any map that makes the nights like the ones in the Contact Campaign DLC

Oh, thanks for the very quick fix! Glad to see updates to Korsac, I hope you guys keep working on it (or something even cooler).

@onestar We've just released a minor hotfix removing the rainbows for Korsac (Winter), thanks!
