+Gepard Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 Only a big water desert with very few islands. The screenshot shows some Wildcats over Kure Atoll near the Midway islands.
Edward Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 Gepard Very nice work Looks great. Would love to fly my Wildcat over this one. Edward
+Wrench Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 Yes indeed!!!! The perfect place for that Bombing 6 skin I did for the SBD..... Wrench kevin stein
Silverbolt Posted June 15, 2008 Posted June 15, 2008 (edited) I'm not a WW2 fan, but it's looking amazing!!! perfect for some nuke tests :cool: Edited June 15, 2008 by Silverbolt
+Gepard Posted June 16, 2008 Author Posted June 16, 2008 The first steps are made. I will ask Capun and Hinchinbrooke wheter i can include their ship models into Midway terrain. And then i hope to release the first Beta version of the terrain till weekend.
+Typhoid Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 outstanding!!!!! I have a separate install just for the War in the Pacific and am a dedicated prop-head - part of the time. . Great work as usual and looking forward to this one!
+allenjb42 Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 Great stuff Gepard. My WW2 intalls are seeing more action than all my modern ones at the moment!
+Gepard Posted July 24, 2008 Author Posted July 24, 2008 The development comes to an end. Still some days and i can release it. Contains the island of Kure and Midway, The US Carrier Battle Groups TF-16 and TF-17.

+Baltika Posted July 27, 2008 Posted July 27, 2008 Hi Gepard, Like many people I am looking forward to release of your Midway terrain. Thanks for your hard work, and also thanks for taking the time to explain how you do it in your terrain tutorials I have some questions about your carrier battle groups, which I see from your earlier post you have included in Midway terrain. Have you found a way to make carrier take-offs flyable in single missions? If so, do you think this will have any effect on campaign play, where carrier units are treated in a similar way to ground units as defined in the campaign_data.ini? And, again in campaign play, if (as I suspect) you have made carrier groups targets as defined in the {terrain}_targets.ini, is there any way to force the campaign engine to end a campaign if your base carrier has been destroyed? Or are these all questions that us poor campaign builders are going to have to work out answers to once your Midway terrain is released? - if I may volunteer to build the campaign to go with it S! Baltika
+Gepard Posted August 5, 2008 Author Posted August 5, 2008 Release? I think next weekend. Carriers. Unfortunatly no starts and landings at single mission screen. The same as revious.
+Baltika Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the update, really looking forward to this one No problem re carrier take-offs, as it's a known issue. I have already been researching OOBs for a Midway Campaign, so that will take care of that problem If the carriers are defined as targets in the terrain_types.ini, then a little bit of creativity in the [AirOffensivexxx] section of the campaign_data.ini will ensure that they are targeted at the appropriate time. OTOH, given the nature of the battle, it may be that a series of scripted single missions is the way forward here. Cheers, Baltika Edited August 5, 2008 by Baltika
+Gepard Posted August 10, 2008 Author Posted August 10, 2008 Its released at the download section now.
+Baltika Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 Fabulous news, Thanks very much for your hard work Cheers Baltika
Bandy Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Anyone, I could have sworn I saw a Helldiver somewhere, and would love to fly one in this terrain, but can't find it on any of the usual suspect sites. Please point me in the right direction if it exists. Frustrated
+Wrench Posted October 30, 2008 Posted October 30, 2008 Sorry, bro. No Big-Assed Beast in this game (yet -- which means as far as I know, no one is building one) Besides, it saw it's first combat aboard YORKTOWN (CV-10) more than a year after Midway! We're also missing the TBD -for those with suicidal tendencies!!! I sent Gepard a whole new targets and types ini a coupla months ago...upgraded somethings. Guess he's still working on it. note to self -- check with Deuces on Solomons replanting. Wrench kevin stein
