You'd be surprised how tricky a ground texture is to make Blaster. In some ways its alot harder to make than an Xwing texture.

That is suprising, logical because i never textured before. So i thought in the ways of "X-wing has more smaller parts and the ground is flat"... Except for dunes. So you just stretch the ground texture over the entire map (In parts) or do you place these textures in squares? (These would have to match with eachother at the ends)

I'd imagine in the case of stretching that tweaks are often needed because some parts look wrong. The size of these pictures would be really big. (If applied to the largest map)

Nothing is easy i'm sure. Things you'd think simple about turn out to be quite a job.

As far as TME is  concerned, we're constantly improving the look of the map, and its changed a fair bit from the demo. It's always a balancing act between trying to reduce framerate and the addition of detail. But your concerns have been noted, we do listen to your feedback and do try and act to fix the things you highlight if we can.

But compared to the texturing of other things like X-wings or the likes, i suppose the ground aint that hard to do? (In the case when the majority doesn't like it somehow)

W00T!!! 200th Post!!!

wasnt the fog used on bf vanilla maps to reduse lag due to the fact that you cant see that far anymore?

The fog has nothing to do with view distance. The fog is just there to make objects (buildings, terrain, soldiers, etc) blend with the skydome texture.

In fact if you removed fog alltogether I think you'd find it to be faster, since you no longer has to calculate the fog color on top of whatever has been rendered beneath. Well relativly speaking, fog isnt all that resource heavy

Camp Gibraltar has limited vision i believe.
