Isla de Quies

I'm using Cryteks, Sandbox map editor (for Far Cry), as a rather cheap but cool way to build a virtual island, encompassing all the cool and cutting edge technologies I want to eventually build into a REAL island. A legit synthetic island built on a sea mount in International waters.

I need help, there's lots of 3DSmax elements that need building, importation into Sandbox, testing and just general phaffing about and polishing of the design.

What I hope to do is show this finished island to investors to show them what is possible with the unique blend of technologies I'm utilising in the construction of this island.

So far, the island has the following features :

Power generation on the island is far in excess of any potential requirement for population on the island, so it will be a net producer of energy, IE it can export energy. All this energy is also totally green, produced by a mix of tidal, solar, thermal and wind generation systems.

It's totally self sufficient in terms of food for the specified population base.

It does not require desalinisation plants.

It has it's own micro-industries making green products for sale to the rest of the world.

I just need some talented folks to help me build the shiny bits so I have something to show the shiny suits with the money, so I can go on to build it for real.

Either drop me contact details here, or email me @

    Just out of curiosity, why are you using sandbox and not something like 3dsmax directly? Are you looking to automate your virtual island in some way?

    My bet is that he wants the island to be something that the client can tour and interact with, but without needing to pre-render any content to do so.

    Or he just liked FarCry :p

    Sanfam wins

    I don't want an 'on rails' experience and having to have a massive server farm to render out the tour. The idea is to give the potential investor ownership by giving them some control over what they see...

    (or atleast the impression thereof)

    The fact that they can hold deathmatches on their new island is a bonus.

    I suspect it's more that they'll be able to find potential escape routes and seal them up as quickly as possible. The only reason Bond villains ever lose: They don't remember to run intrusion simulations on their base!
