thanks man, im going to try and make a snowy map like antarctica XD

Goodluck, make sure you use google/youtube to get some inspiration from
At least i'm doing this almost every time now

And do you know how to export to fbx with multiple textures cause say if i had on my map dirt and grass texture once i export it into 3ds max it only shows one texture (the first one i assigned)

You can't export painted models, only elements.. Look at left in bar for LOT, than right click the whole area by making it.
After use Material Seed to put more textures, this method works to have more textures on the map however blendings are something for GIMS in MAX!

Where the hell is the map?? All I see are cars driving in the air.

Can you walk on map? If not, you should install the map properly. If you can walk up on it?! Than you can use Photoshop to resize textures...
Or better have GDDR5 RAM Graphic Card it's better for loading enviroments

Well i see you have been allready helped, but in future just make sure you make BACK UP's from files you think will need in future!
That would help avoiding these awkward issues..

Probably not if you don't see the map but can walk on it. I actually never have this issues on my EFLC..
I have GDDR5 AMD Radeon HD 6850 1 GB with 6 GB RAM memory and 2.33ghz cpu lol
You should manually downsize textures with Photoshop, it's not that hard and can be done in few minutes

textures from '1024x1024' to '512x512'
textures from '512x1024' to '256x512'
textures from '256x1024' to '128x512'

by exporting textures with OpenIV in this direction: pc/data/maps/red_dead_desert/rdd_main/rdd_main.wtd
Than import back to same direction and 'rebuild/save' the archive, that should fix it!

Seems fun, glad you like it

Unfortunately i'm kinda bored by making desert again. So i'm leaving RDD '12 as BETA for now..
I have considered to make a new map mod inspired by mountains and river screens from GTA V.
I'll make a new topic soon when i've more progress!

Also i've created new homepage, for all feature map mods and released ones.. You can visit here:

Nah, the reason i'm adding maps to Liberty City is for people to have variety in their game.. Else you'll have just a standart LC left, sounds like something for consoles

Well the BETA is unfinishable, everything i'm adding to it or changing it.. Crashes my game, like i've said before.
The new RDD '12 map i was making, i'll only use Pikes Peak on bigger scale from it and will leave the desert out.
Sorry but i don't feel like doing any desert this time, maybe later
I'm more interested in making dense forest and river/mountainous areas

[Convetors]

Thanks !!!
