We don't need to change elevations at this point. First we complete the basic tiling and then some selected people go over the done segments in "Quality Assurance" tiling pass, correcting any errors (which should be minimum) and fixing some elevations if there are major rivers running uphill and suc...

Hmm ok, is there some F4UT server where members can upload the theater?

The latest package we prepared with Widowmaker works pretty well so far, the campaign exit brings some CTD but all the basic crap is put together now.

This next tutorial was created many months ago, its not completed yet and todays (SP2) standards even some parts are outdated. However it should give you rough idea of what it takes to create Falcon 4 Theater.

Here is some new screenshots from ODS, running in SP2 final.
