Duala is a fictional ~56km2 (10x10km map) big island, divided into two waring countries: Afrene on South and Molatia on North. River divides the two countries with a buffer-zone/border in between, monitored by international peacekeepers.

Never been to Duala?
El Diablo, IceBreakr and Tourist Board of Afrene are inviting you to visit a paradise on Earth - Isla Duala. Tropical forests, sandy beaches, wild savannah, clear water and... nasty neighbouring Republic of Molatia threatening to overrun friendly Republic Afrene in Southern part of Duala. Current peace can be very decieving. Marks of previous decade-long war can be seen even today and no-man zone still divides both countries with high fence running all along the border. Only few of the natives dare to travel across. With recent diamond and oil findings in Molatia their war machine is growing. European and US peacekeeping forces are currently present in Afrene in small numbers, but this might change very soon. Russia and China are in close business ties with Molatia and Afrene is mainly providing services for US and European tourists. War between Molatia and Afrene might be just around the corner...

Project took exactly two months to reach beta state (v0.99) and another 14 days to polish it out. Many many hours went into it. Consider this as a present to the greatest gaming community ever and a tribute to BIS that is supporting us and for all their dedication! Project recieved a lot of praise so further updates are here...

What's new in 1.9?
Couple of things changed since you were last here. Afrenians set up a Refugee Camp in Central Region to provide shelter for people that are being harrased by Molatians near the border. Molatia invested a lot of money and set up its own airforce: Su-24 Fencer bombers are being escorted by Mig-21MFs to conduct "exercises" near border. Afrene set up a new outpost on West island but its listening station exploded during last night. Crashsite revealed that Molatia probably used its first guided bomb. Molatia also brought substantial new armor to the border consisting of new T-72s and older T-55s. Several BMPs were spotted, too.

Afrenians in fear for their country got help from Europe and set up their own squadron of good old Swedish Saab AJ37 Viggens. They are used in several defense/attack roles. US supplied guided AGM-65 Mavericks and upgrade that enabled use of new laser guided bombs. Afrenians also managed to form their first armored division ever. Afrenian Ministry of Defense revealed the details of this deal: $15M dollars for 30 refurbished Leopard 1A5 tanks and additional $5M for ammo, crew training and reserve parts. Painted in an agressive "leopard" camo they've put some fear into neighbours tank crews. But Molatian appettites are still growing strong and new border passes were made for a possible "blitzkrieg" attack...

Island
Duala is a fictional ~56km2 (10x10km map) big island, divided into two waring countries: Afrene on South and Molatia on North. River divides the two countries with a buffer-zone/border in between, monitored by international peacekeepers.

Vegetation
African vegetation can be seen everywhere: towns, savannah, desert and jungle. Duala is pretty dry land, but some areas near water feature lush forests. Savannah covers most of the land, while sand and mud is around river beds and beaches. There are no large hills, rare ones feature rock formations. Guys travelling savannah will find shelter from the sun under acacia trees. Some water rich areas feature thick undergrowth with large datepalm trees and other palms and bushes.

Military installations
Biggest strategic importance in both countries have airports. There are two major ones used for military and also civilian traffic. Three more are dirt runways (NW Molatia, NE Molatia and SE Afrene) and used mainly by small planes. There's a word that drugs and blackmarket weapons are shipped in and out of the country this way.

Border & Buffer zone
Afrene didn't build fence wall, but Molatia constructed it all along the border marking their territory they gained in 10-year war. After peace treaty Afrene and Molatia build couple of outposts along the border. There's no confirmation on mine fields, but in decade long war a lot of them were placed and later removed by international mine clearing teams. Afrene built a wall around a border town on East in order to hinder Molatian terrorist actions. Both sides also have powerful air radars covering most valleys. Afrene set up a heliport near border to stop smuggling operations. Molatia uses helicopters stationed far North in safe cover of thick jungle. There is a rumor that jungle outposts also house Russian instructors training local troops, but there is no official word on that.

Settlements and towns
Both Afrene and Molatia have capitol towns: Kinsella and Balabango. Slums can be found in both, majority of people living on Duala are very poor. Smaller towns feature markets, industrial compounds, rent houses, offices, etc. All towns and villages are marked on map. There is a refugee camp in the Central Afrene that is hosting all refugees that flee from the border towns due to threat from Molatian offensive.

your instructions are quite deceptive but the map looks nice... btw doesnt this map have that big ass jump on it?
 
Had a play last night managed to find some barracks and was having a good explore, but glitched on a staircase and could not find a way to kill myself. However this is no comment on the map itself, that was just arma 2 stupidness which can happen on any map. If you can pwnoz0r please delete my profile so I can restart.

How many vehicles / main towns are there?

I will delete your player data now. I apologize for that. There are 27 possible spawn locations and 12 are active. With that many players I am adding more positions and adding more cars to spawn onto the map. This was a great testing run. I had many players on with big live streamers hopping on as well. I am working on it as we speak.

Really no need to apologize bud. It was a typical arma collision fail that could easily have been the fire station in Chernarus.

I don't know if you were on the server at the time, but there was a hacker and I already wiped the database. You should be good to go. I am saying you should be good to go is because I don't see your UID in the right table.
 
I tried this map out yesterday and really enjoyed it and will be playing it more. Are there any vehicles as I never came across one in the NW of the map
 
Finally got in today.

Glitches so far:

- the small buildings, you have to still crawl through the doors.
- school, you can't get upstairs - stuck at the top. (apparently not all schools)

The small barracks are the same models from Lingor. Apparently they were fixed in Lingor. I am looking into how they were fixed so I can apply the changes to Isladuala (is possible). My guess is that IceBreakr needs to fix it, hence he owns the actual map and has all the development files for it. The same thing applies with the school.
 
Sorry if anyone is trying to connect to the server. For some reason the whole entire box is offline and no one can connect. Sorry for the inconveniences. ;(
 
Sorry everyone issue with the page file, bringing the box back up now. This is the first time the whole thing has crashed like this in months. Taking action to fix and prevent in the future.
