Sinai Development Report
Our third party partner OneReTech continues to develop and enhance the DCS: Sinai map for upcoming early access launch. They have received a lot of positive feedback and comments since the last reviews. Thanks to all of you who commented and provided valuable information and criticism, Sinai can only get better with your support and review.
Some unique scenes have already been improved and many bugs have been fixed. The destruction models are in the final stages of development. Many improvements, including the great pyramids of Giza have already been implemented, along with many other scenes, airfield details and textures.
OneReTech have now added moving trains, greater variety of vegetation and birds in port areas and several models of tankers are already in the works that will complement the realism of port scenes.
For Early Access launch, six new airfields will be available:
- El Arish, El Gora, Baluza are on the north of the Sinai peninsula.
- Bir Hasanah is in the middle.
- St Catherine and Abu Rudeis are to the south.
These strategic locations will allow the recreation of realistic scenarios of the missions of the Arab-Israeli wars.
"Our team has been working hard on a tool that allows you to procedurally get textures that are already used on the DCS: Sinai map. Furthermore, we have improved the tools that allow us to obtain height maps at a more accurate resolution of 1 metre per pixel, where the original resolution was 38 metres per pixel. This allows you to get textures as well as a surface mesh with a higher density using the Eagle Dynamics TDK tool. This can be used to build unique places and mountains. For example, you can make dunes in the desert not only on the texture, but also procedurally generate a surface mesh."

Sinai Early Access
We are excited to launch the Sinai map with a 20% early access discount, a stunning terrain expansion for DCS. With this historical region as its backdrop, this map offers an incredibly diverse and challenging battlefield for you to explore and dominate. Watch the video!
The DCS: Sinai map spans from eastern Egypt to southern Israel. It is a strategic location rich in resources, nature, religion and history. The map includes deserts, fertile farm lands, oases and coastlines. The Suez Canal waterway connects the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea and provides a shorter route between Europe and Asia. This has made it politically significant to regional security and stability.
This new map territory includes the entire Sinai Peninsula, eastern Egypt, the Nile Delta, southern Israel, western Jordan and Saudi Arabia. It also includes the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. The total size of the map is 1500 x 1000 km, and the detailed section is 700 x 700 km. This is the first phase of this map and later phases will add additional detail, airfields, and other map content.
In modern times, it is associated with the Arab-Israeli wars, during which it repeatedly became the subject of disputes. This includes the Suez Crisis of 1956, the Six Day War of 1967, and the Yom Kippur War of 1973. We truly hope you enjoy this fantastic addition.
The map contains many military bases and strategic seaports, emplacements for air defense systems, and helipads. This will allow you to create interesting missions in both the air and on the ground. A large number of military facilities and bases will help to reenact the Arab-Israeli wars, as well as modern missions and campaigns based on fictional scenarios.
Key Features:
- 20 Egyptian airfields and 9 Israeli airfields. Airfields are accurately modeled and include lighting, approach lights, PAPI, TACAN, and VOR systems.
- City lighting using Eagle Dynamics Graphics Engine (EDGE).
- Major cities like Cairo, Ismail, Alexandria, Suez, Port Said, and Tel Aviv.
- Close to 100 unique objects; airfield facilities and monuments including the famous Giza pyramids. All objects and assets are divided into territories.
- The coastline of the Suez Canal, the Gulf of Suez, and the Gulf of Aqaba
- Implementation of new procedural generation technology of land textures and normal map textures for mountains.
- Improved height maps that result in an accurate surface mesh.
- Unique tree models.
We believe that the DCS: Sinai map will enhance your gameplay experience and attract new pilots to the world of DCS. Whether you are an experienced flight simmer or a newcomer, the DCS: Sinai map offers endless opportunities for thrilling missions and challenges.
