Italy Jungle Remix 1.0

Vegetation swap and slight adjustments to bring a few TDU vibes to your Italy map.

  1. Bardaff


    Aloha peeps!

    Long story short, I have to admit Ive been a huge fan of TDU1 since day one, and the vibe it had is something I always kind of seek to replicate sometimes within the softs where I happen to drive. In the BNG paradygm tho the Italy map always tickled that thing... so the idea of making it more Oahu-esque was quite obvious.
    When I found out I could swap assets of forest items without blowing the whole stuff the job was almost done (kinda, still had to delete or move many trees around the roads haha).
    This was thought at first for personal use, but figured out you guys might like it, although its not very rally-related

    This should be non-destructive and keep all the functionalities of the Italy map.
    Time of day is fixed so far because I have to work on custom sky/fog gradients in order to have it look less weird at dusk/dawn.
    This mod acts roughly as a skin, if you install it it will make your Italy map look like this, and if you deactivate it your Italy map will look back to normal, quite simple actually.

    If you want to support my work, and by doing so get the other stuff I'm producing, you can head over to my patreon : https://www.patreon.com/BardaffMods
    Any help is highly appreciated!

    Take care, drive fast, and have fun along the way!

    Wow -- this is awesome. It gives me serious Crysis vibes. I feel like I'm back on the Lingshan Islands ready to Nano-beatdown my way through everything!

    I'm a big fan of atmosphere and environmental storytelling, and having the relatively well-kept roads and buildings combined with the overgrowth of foreign foliage speaks of a sudden, catastrophic change that drove all the citizens away, and now I'm here alone trying to figure out what to do.

    I've taken some drives on the shoreline roads, dirt roads, and the highway as well as in the city areas, and man -- the vibes don't stop! I'm super happy with your work, and I can already tell I'm going to be spending a lot of time here.

    My only small gripe - and it's an inconvenience rather than a problem - is the necessity of deactivating the mod to get the regular Italy back. I'd prefer to have the two side by side in the map menu. That being said, I'm not a modder, and I know with Beam there can be hours of work involved in the simplest task, so I'll gladly do the activate/deactivate thing if it means I get to keep enjoying your amazing work!

      Thank you, and I'm glad you feel this way driving here! That said, I completely not saw this side of things, but yeah, it could pretty fit in a post apocalyptic setup, might be an idea to keep...
      About making it independant from the master Italy map, yeah I wanted to do that, but AFAIK this would mean to duplicate the whole content of the map, and there are several reasons I didnt do that. First is the archive size generously exceeding whats allowed on the repo, second is that i wanted to keep all the gameplay elements and future updates of the native map blending with this "skin". Let's see how it evolves in the future tho...

    This is amazing! To capture that Hawaii TDU feel better though, the European road textures/designs should probably be replaced with the American road textures (yellow lines and stuff), and US road signs.

      Thank you! Nice idea, this should work, I'll give it a shot when I can. But TBH it would still lack the american houses and such, and I feel like going too far would mean making a map from scratch. This isnt something to exclude tho, could fit in a future rally series, after I'm done with the mediterranean special. We're talking distant future, tho!

    This seems rather interesting. It would be interesting to see more like this where terrain of map A gets the style of map B

      TBH I was quite surprised (in a good way) with the results of the experiment. Not sure it works good every time, but its not something to overlook I guess ^^
