[andrey12345]

If you look to the right will be visible hollow



And somewhere in the distance suburbs of Voronezh (end of an area)

[andrey12345]

To the left we see a small farm



And corral


and again the river



..to be continued..

Looks great!
Looking forward to playing it. 8)

[andrey12345]

go ahead


this path

go up to the hill and go out to the highway


The Germans will attack here from there

[andrey12345]

Back to the Shilovo




This is the bridge where began

[andrey12345]

Very schematic map of the path and the approximate positions of troops

[andrey12345]

In the next series will go on the left side of the polygon ...

[lavish]

The landscape looks natural and beautiful! How big is the polygon area?

Some criticism though: those dark green cane/reed like plants near water don't look so smooth to my eyes. IMO they are a bit too blocky or something.

BTW Andrey, it might be interesting for you check out this link (http://outerra.blogspot.se/search/label/grass). It's a grass rendering technique that uses textured envelope for long view distances. Something similiar would look very nice in your game too and would definately be mandatory for tank sim (grass do not disappear)!

See on map each square 1x1km

Yes, they are low-poly, because they have to be very big quantities. A game must somehow less real-time work.

Not interesting - is looks too slowly for game, may be have problems with intense dynamic update due to tank tracks or shell holes. And how about different grass types (except grass blades)? And drawing on a small distance. Suitable only for small grass in demo, but not in game.

Now move to the left side of the polygon


On the way to get to the village Trushkina (Trushkina)




Сross a ravine

[andrey12345]

We'll see back


go ahead

the ford





In this part of the polygon much less wetlands.

[andrey12345]

Go ahead, fields and villages.

[andrey12345]

...


another ford


So far Malyshevo village near which the Germans crossed the Don river.

[andrey12345]

go on the road

marshes behind


Approaching the village Malyshevo


River Don, from the other side came the Germans

[andrey12345]

The settlement Malyshevo

[andrey12345]

Moving to Voronezh




Left ravine along which the Germans were advancing on 4th of July.

[chashka17]

This all looks really great.  Seems a shame to have to blow it all up! 

[andrey12345]

Go up to the hill where there were positions 2/498 Rifle Reg and 1/425 Arty Reg





Grove between Malyshevo and Trushkina

[andrey12345]

Ravine along which the Germans were advancing

[andrey12345]

Ravine smoothly into a mixed forest
