It's time again to open up a new thread for discussing the AIMNAS Bigmaps project.
Remember a few things:
Before opening any new threads in the subforum, make sure the question hasn't been answered yet, there is no similiar discussion thread around and the stuff doesn't belong into one of the following:
Mandatory read before posting here: Check out the FAQ.
Bugs should be posted in the Bug Thread.
Item Request should be posted in the Item Request Thread.
Currently working on the Easter 2015 release! More information on this coming up soonish.
AIMNAS is currently the only mod for JA2 that features the bigmaps project. There are more than 100 maps done already, which is more than half of the original world map. You can't play a full campaign yet, but the available maps will keep you entertained for quite a long time.
In addition to the bigger maps AIMNAS features a ton of new items, including more guns, more attachments, more armour, more LBE, food, etc.
AIMNAS is more or less a one-man show with a few notable exceptions. Shout outs go to (in alphabetical order):
DepressivesBrot
Flugente
Tais
Zombiehunter
And all the people who are willing to beta-test this (still) unfished business.

Currently uploading Easter Release.
Due to a very slow and unstable i-net connection I had to divide the package into three parts (upload crashed 4 times on me while the complete package uploaded to ~40% each time after having spent about 30 mins each upload... so yeah... fast i-net would be nice, I guess).
Anyways, 1st and 2nd part are already up, third part will be up soonish (at least I hope the connection doesn't break off... heading to bed now). So the d/l should be available on Easter saturday.
Downloadlink AIMNAS Easter Release 2015
To use all features the Easter Release 2015 requries latest development exe (JA2 7805).
Remember, this is still in pre-beta stage and still work in progress.
I fixed a few of the reported bugs, but certainly not all of them. If you encounter bugs with the Easter release (even those already reported with earlier versions), share them in the AIMNAS Bug thread, so that they will eventually get fixed some day.
Feedback is appreciated as always.
From the playable maps screenie in the previous post you can see, that along with Chitzena, San Mona and Drassen now also Cambria and Tixa are fully playable.
Quests/ NPCs will probably still not work 100% (especially keep away from the hospital crew and try not to talk to Nurse Jenny about getting people patched up... I did not fix the script yet. Vince is probably hireable if loyalty is high enough, I didn't check that yet... as always, when talkign to NPCs, make a quicksave first).
Enjoy and happy Easter days.

Hi guys! Happy Easter!
I'm having issues running AIMNAS after reinstalling JA2 on my PC:
1) Install JA2 Gold edition (In C:\, not program files)
2) Download and copy over rev 7805 into my JA folder
3) Download and copy over the 3 seperate downloads for AIMNAS 2015 Easter.
4) Start JA_7805_UB.exe
Game crashes after a blackscreen.
I tried copying the directory from the install on my old laptop (Which was running rev 7205, can't see which version of AIMNAS. But that doesn't seen to work either.
I'm running Vista 64bit, tried running with admin rights, win XP compatability etc.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

Sorry just tried to access the FAQ link etc and they're forbidden, except for forum moderators.
Trying the new release that I just found here (duh!).
