Moab, Uath v1.2
This map is a mixture of both real-life places and my imagination.
The map is not a 1:1 recreation of the real Moab; but the map has places on it and has captured its whole feeling and atmosphere.
The map includes ideas and attractions from:
-Eastern Utah
-Moab, Utah
-San Rafael Swell Region, Utah
-Utah Motorsports Campus (Salt Lake City, Utah)
The map includes lots of dirt trails, long and good asphalt roads, a small town, racetrack, missions and more!
-Scratch-built custom terrain: The terrain was generated with a special program for that map. I wanted to make a bigger map—a map that is larger than my previous projects. The development started in December 2022.
While the map itself is fictional, it combines both own ideas and references to real-life places. I did research for the desert and mountains, the town, and such. The map’s name is also based on research.
The map is handmade, which means the cliffs and roads were placed by me; while smaller rocks were “brushed,” larger ones were placed by hand.
-PBR: The map was built on a PBR base. I learned a lot from my previous mistakes, and this map was built more carefully and planned.
I already planned and placed things carefully with the big picture in mind. This picture was and is a large map with lots of fun for off-roaders, kings of the asphalt, and rock crawlers. That was not the case with older maps, such as RCUSA.I love that map, and I loved making it, but in the past, I made mistakes in planning the road layout, vegetation, and such.
The map includes features that Utah lacks, such as a town, long, straight asphalt roads, and off-road paths.
-Details: While this is the largest map I’ve ever created, I did pay close attention to detail. Mine, from bushes and debris to ramps and dynamic lights! The goal is to give details everywhere on the map.
-Large size: The terrain itself is the same size as Utah’s. However, the playable area is bigger. As I mentioned above, there are good off-road trails and long paved roads!
While that size (2.05 km x 2.05 km = 4.19 km^2) is a medium, average one, it was a challenge for me, as I mentioned above. I wanted to release an exciting map and content-filled one.
Today’s update is a large one: it includes tons of fixes, improvements and new stuff! New missions, usable gas stations, better off-road trails, better AI and more! If you wouldn’t like to read through the changelog, you can take a look at the HIGHLIGHTS:
-Added refuel stations (usable gas stations and more)
-Added Gambler 500 missions
-Added & finished off-road trails (and improved some)…
