Sinai Development Report

The OnReTech team continues to create the DCS: Sinai map. In addition to urban areas, facilities, and airfields, they are improving the quality of the terrain surface. They have implemented procedural texturing technology, improved color balance, and improved the visibility of details at high altitudes.

OneReTech’s next step will be adding vegetation, stones, trees, and phone and power poles. Additional details will also be added along roads, rail lines and rivers.

Normandy 2 Introduction

We are delighted to announce that Ugra Media’s next map will be DCS: Normandy 2. Using the skills developed whilst creating the outstanding DCS: Syria map, the new Normandy 2 map will use the latest DCS mapping technologies to create an epic World War II battlefield.

The DCS: Normandy 2 map enlarges the DCS: Normandy 1944 map to 400 x 600 km to include London, Paris and the surrounding regions. Normandy 2 will feature over 130 original map objects and a detailed area six times larger than DCS: Normandy 1944.

The Normandy map has been redesigned to include new churches, train stations, market squares, and gas stations, plus many other cultural and natural features. The United Kingdom region has been completely redone to a much greater level of detail and accuracy. This is in addition to also updating the French region.

  • Key Features of DCS: Normandy 2
    • Recreation of London and Paris.
    • Improved ground textures, roads, rail lines, fields, forests and new trees.
    • Additional telegraph and power poles, semaphores, fences and new buildings
    • More accurate rivers and coastlines, including the chalk cliffs of southern England.
    • Updated and unique airfields with greater details and more equipment to better match the period. Normandy 2 brings the number of unique airfields to 50.


DCS: Normandy 2 will benefit from new technology that allows existing maps to be extended with low-detailed areas. If you wish to pass on the upgrade, you may still join multiplayer servers and compatibility with campaigns will remain. Please note that the Normandy 2 upgrade is required to experience a much higher level of detail.

DCS: Normandy 2 will be available as a complete map for $59.99 USD. If you have either DCS: Normandy 1944 or DCS: The Channel maps, you can purchase Normandy 2 for $14.99 USD. If you own both, you can purchase DCS: Normandy 2 for only $9.99 USD.

Ugra Media Normandy 2.0 FAQ

When will it release?
The intent is to release into Early Access before the end of 2022. However, this may extend into early 2023 based on testing results.

How much will it cost?
DCS: Normandy 2 will be available as a complete map for $59.99 USD with 20% off while in Early Access. If you have either DCS: Normandy 1944 or DCS: The Channel maps, you can purchase Normandy 2 for $14.99 USD. If you own both, you can purchase DCS: Normandy 2 for only $9.99 USD.

How big is the Normandy 2.0 map compared to the Normandy 1944 map?
Please see the attached image that illustrates the low and high detail areas of the Normandy 2.0 map compared to the existing Normandy 1944 map. The Normandy 2.0 map will be 400x600 km, which will make it significantly larger than the Normandy 1944 map.

Is this a combining the Normandy 1944 and Channel maps?
No, this is an all-new map that covers all the same area as the Normandy 1944 map, plus an extensive expansion that also covers large parts of the same area included in the Channel map.

What new cities and landmarks have been added?
Chief of among them are London and Paris, but it will also include many new medium to small size urban areas that make up the greatly expanded area. This will also include new ports, airfields, factories, rivers, canals, and more. Most of the Normandy 1944 map objects have also been greatly improved like buildings, bridges, airfield objects, rail lines, roads, trees, fences, poles, and more.

What airfields will be included at release?
The total number of airfields has bee increases to 50 for the Early Access version. This may further increase after Early Access release. Please see the attached map for a listing of the initial airfields.

Am I paying for the same map twice?
No, this is a new map, not an upgrade to the existing Normandy 1944 map. Although the Normandy 2.0 map includes the same area covered in the Normandy 1944 map, it is much larger with greater detail, accuracy, texture resolution, and trees.

Because the Normandy 1944 map was created using older map technology and tools, it is not possible to simply expand the size of that existing map. The Normandy 2.0 map has been created with new map technology and tools that has allowed us to greatly increase the map size and amount of detail.

Because they are different maps, all existing missions and campaigns created for the Normandy 1944 and the Channel maps will continue to function on those maps, nothing changes. However, missions created for the Normandy 1944 map would not work in the Normandy 2.0 map. As such, the Normandy 1944 and Channel map will continue to be for sale.

If I only own the Normandy 1944 Map, will I be able to join servers running the Normandy 2.0 map?
Yes, but detail areas included in the Normandy 2.0 map and not in the Normandy 1944 map would be at low detail and missing world objects. This item is still being worked on and may change.

Will the framerates be worse than the current Normandy 1944 map?
Using the latest Terrain Development Kit (TDK), we have optimized Normandy 2.0, despite an increase in the number of objects. You should see no loss in performance compared to the Normandy 1944 map.

Will there be winter textures?
We plan for the Normandy 2.0 to only include the summer season as it is being created around operations in Normandy in the summer of 1944 (Opération Neptune).

Ugra Media Normandy 2.0 FAQ

Why is Normandy 2 released separately and what about Normandy 1944?
Normandy 2 is a new map that is created on new technologies and includes a territory much larger than N1944, much more perfect and detailed.

The developers of UM and ED are making it so that all users of Normandy1944 will have a free global update available that will allow them to get their N1944 map at the Normandy 2 technology level and make these maps compatible in online multiplayer scenarios.

What happens when a player with just Normandy 1 spawns at a field on a Normandy 2 MP server that isn't on the Normandy 1 map?
All obstacles and terrain for both maps will be the same after updates.

Immagine

Will the internal DCS map coordinates be the same as on the prior Normandy 1944, I mean the same coordinate origin and coordinate scales?
Yes, the Origin and coordinate scales remain the same.

How low is low detail? If I fly from one high detailed airbase to another high detailed base but pass through a low detailed area, how jarring will it be?
We are currently doing a lot of work to ensure that the Normandie2 map is friendly to all DCS users.

This is a screenshot of a highly detailed map area. Previously, this was a "low detail zone" on the 1944 Normandy map, but now it will be available to all users with this level of detail. This will be for the users of "Normandy 1944" and for the owners of "Normandy 2".

I didn't understand what would happen to my Normandy 1944?
The users will not lose anything, on the contrary, they will gain. The map will receive a global update: improvements to the southern part of England will become available with a detailed coastline and original airfields, there will be an update of buildings and airfields. Also, new terrain textures have been added for England.

Immagine

What airfields will be on the map?
In addition to the 50 airfields announced, we are already working on airfields: Orly, Dreux, Stoney Cross, Thorney Island, Croydon, Odiham. By the time of release, the number of airfields will reach 65, which is more than on the map of Syria"
