mlewis1969 2 Posted April 25, 2012 :idea:Road markers would be a great new way to navigate in the dark. Could even put them on the RR tracks as well. Or how about English translated street signs. You know what else would be great? If someone did all the skin work and uploaded them here to this thread.:D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackbeard06 16 Posted April 25, 2012 Well English translations will impede on the realism. I don't personally agree with it. Unless there is an Amerian Island or UK Island, but other than that no. As for mile markers I'm not too sure if they use that system overseas. I live in the US so the metric system here is different. If there are Markers, they would most likely be in KM, however I have yet to seen any. Even in over seas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
griffinz 2816 Posted April 25, 2012 Chernarus is loosely based on the Czech Republic. Whatever they do there would be acceptable I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Korathias 20 Posted April 25, 2012 I would not mind the Czech/Russian signs but all the maps are in English, So unless you can translate you kinda stuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nuttex 51 Posted April 25, 2012 Keep in mind ALL road signs in Chernarus use Russian road sign system (examples #1 and #2). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oktyabr 53 Posted April 25, 2012 Yeah, it's not like Russian is alien hieroglyphs or something. I might not be able to "read" a Russian road sign, pronounce it out loud or write it down again but it's close enough to English that you should be able to get the idea.

mlewis1969 2 Posted April 26, 2012 I think I found something useful called: Swedge's Star Navigation Guide.The file is larger than 1024 kilobytes (6.64 MB) so I can't upload it to attachments but you can get it from the armaholic web site, just do a search for "Swedge's Star Navigation". It shows you how to navigate via the stars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
