    Looks like that file may have been lost when the site was Hacked a few years back.

    Thx John. I've noticed that the stitching filled some gaps like in the lower left corner of the map by copying some terrain.
    Also I need to change the altitude to 800m to get a more realistic point of view.

    Maybe we can make some different maps?

    Well I'm on holiday now till 9th of July and when I'm back home I'll certainly get into this.
    So suggestions are very welcome...
    I'm thinking of making some different gameplay maps.
    For example...

    Mountains ( with altitude limiter)
    Beaches
    Verdun
    Yser
    Etc...

    Lugburz the originators last activity on the site was 27/11/15 Dan, so the chances of getting the link reinstated are very slim.

    Default Hello How do I get this map to download it?

    About a year ago I was browsing the Aerodrome forums in search of terrain options when I stumbled across a thread called "More Gaming Mats?". Within, many of the forum members were swapping links and recommendations for their favorite Wings of War gaming surface. My interest was piqued, but I just wasn't satisfied with the quality of the official 'mouse-pad' mats from Nexus. Convenient and as colorful as they are, they didn't translate the gritty atmosphere of the western front. So it began that I set out on a quest to design my own Wings of War mat. And ... BEHOLD!



    The result was an extremely large digital file that would later become the final design for a 3 foot by 8 foot vinyl mat. Creating the thing wasn't the problem; I had no clue as to how I was going to print it! Fortunately for me, I have a friend who works at Fed-Ex/Kinkos that was willing to print it out for free :eek2:!

    Without meaning to, I spent the next several weeks hijacking the "More Game Mats?" thread with pictures and links to free files which I had uploaded. I have since realized that some of the information on that thread had gotten a bit confusing, what with links and pictures spread across multiple posts, so I was of the mind that I should consolidate them all here into a new thread. Below you should find all the necessary links to the aforementioned files, available in various sizes.

    Happy flying!

    As the links are dead and nothing on the internet is ever deleted, im currently in the process of uploading the files to the download section. Ill update this thread with the links when they are finished

    I might even be able to get some custom sizes up, but i dont want to use up too much disk space on the server, im sure the admins will let me know

    Edit: so after a long wait it turns out the file is too big to upload

    Thanks @flyingthon for uploading the files and making them available. Also, thanks to @Lugburz for creating them originally. I guess I have a trip to kinkos/staples in my near future.

    So sorry to bring this up, but does anyone by chance have a copy of these files (or any other hi-res mats) available? Been playing for some time with my son, but he lost interest a few years back and went on to other things (Pirate ships of all things...as a young kid might do), but now has gotten interested in playing again and I'm trying to capitalize on his enthusiasm.

    I was able to find someone that could print me a map on vinyl if I can get him a file but most files are either gone, or dead links.

    I bought a playmat online from Noble Knight and it was a giant let down (Blown out colours, fuzzy images, not the correct type of terrain) It clearly looks like they took a 72 dpi screenshot of their computer screen and tried to blow it up to 48'x48 then blur the entire image to try and reduce the pixelation.

    Anyways, I would be INCREDIBLY grateful if anyone has some mats that they could share. Thanks.

    Here is a link to my amazon album of high-res files for mats: malachi mats where you can download any that you like.

    I've had all of these made in vinyl 6' x 4' at vistaprint when they have sales and they turned out well. I cleaned most of the images a bit to eliminate spots, creases, etc. Several are actual aerial recon photos from McMaster University archives (along with screenshots of the description).

    WWI photo recon
    English Channel/North Sea
    NASA space photos for Battlestar Galactica
    King Kong Manhattan 4 x 4 mat (my D6 rules are in the Files section)

    Good luck and I hope you and your son have fun!

    Very nice. Thanks. My kid is not feeling them so much because he sys he wants some with colour, but he's 11 years old and that's just how their brain works. I'm still grabbing them likely try to "colourize" them myself so changes his mind. He keeps showing me the old Lingster and Lugburz ones asking if I can find those and I'm trying to show him how long ago they were posted. I agree that those do seem to have more resolution, but you can't get more "authentic" than these.

    No worries. If you're looking for something similar you might try: Deep Cut Studios

    Their Aerial Fields comes in various sizes and types (mousepad, vinyl, cloth).

    I had them make a custom called Over No Man's Land that they can probably reprint if you want the NML strip in the middle.
    email custom@deepcutstudio.com to ask on that one.

    I tend to agree...however, when someone offers to print you a playmat, you first try to get some images from the community.

    Hi Lugburz .. I know the post is very old (2012) but the file is very interesting for me because an event I'm organizing.
    The link for downloading doesn't work and I'm not finding where is stored in Aerodrome, probably is not stored.
    If you can be able to send me copy by wetransfer or similar tool directly to my email magno.andrea@me.com I'll appreciate a lot.
