I'm having trouble getting any information on this. Nothing from twitter, nothing from reddit, nothing from these forums. Is there really no information out there on how to get started?

Unlike real life, where they are fucking everywhere. I hate how often I have to shovel them out of my driveway each autumn.

The mapping process has a number of steps, including learning the tools, laying things out, texturing them, etc. All those things are very time consuming and could be done in parallel with the game's development. As the game gets closer to completion, then we can work on adding the various DayZ specific things.

I'm interested in building a map based on the San Juan islands in the Pacific Northwest. The PNW shares a lot of the same biome as Chernarus, with a similar population density. Plus, I'm from the Seattle area, and I think it would be incredible to play close to home. I've got some experience with other mapping tools, primarily Hammer, but I can't seem to find any information on how to build a custom map for DayZ. I understand it is alpha, and getting all the DayZ specific entities in the game would be a giant headache because they change so frequently, but it would be nice to work on the basic map elements -- the heightmap, texturing, and basic structures laid out. Can I get the mapping tools for ArmA II or ArmA III and expect to be able to import the result into DayZ in the future?
