It's Snowing! (On .58 EPX)

Recommended Posts

Yep, you heard it hear first. I saw this video and heard the rumors, and today I make the long trek to the Northwest of the map to make or break the rumor.

I don't care if the snow is so broken that it kills you after 10 minutes, send it to the stable update when it comes :p

I doubt it is actually snow. Looks more like a graphic glitch. There is no texture whatsoever in the snow. The base that should be there is gone. There is no snow on the trees.

I hope I'm wrong though.

It's a glitch, it's been confirmed as such by the devs afaik.

 

aww shucks.

 

I noticed the no detail whatsoever in the 'snow', but it looked so prettyy.

WooHoo! Snow angels on the runway at NWAF and snowball fights with bambis on the coast! Can't wait :D

Further, it looks strange when there is snow on the ground but not on the trees, bushes, wrecks and buildings' roofs (and while the vegetation looks like late September).

Personally, I don't think we'll get any sort of weather, beyond rain, temperature and wind, until modding is supported. 

 

Hopefully wind becomes more of a factor, to not only affect your character's temperature, but also affecting the ballistics of a bullet.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's just a texture glitch. 

 

I don't want snow in Chernarus. You don't get an autumn area and a mid-winter area - that doesn't make sense. Either all of the map should be snowy or none of it should be - I'm not interested in Minecraft-style biomes. Shall we have a desert area too?

 

I would like to see a whole map that's snowy, though. Maybe even an alternative Chernarus that's covered in snow - that'd be neat.

Hicks said this was a bug a while ago.

 

I agree I would rather have a community alternative of the whole map including buildings and trees, than parts of Chernarus.

 

But, I think snow coming down like a short flurry would be realistic and practical as part of weather (not textures), just no accumulation. This would just represent colder air temps when precipitation was present.

Yeah. There's a great A2 version of Chernarus that's snowy- trees, shrubs, houses, everything is covered in snow. And it looks beautiful when ported to A3

So technically the guy retextured BIs map, so if they were so inclined then they could hire/buy the map from him.

If your curious just Google Chernarus Winter.
