Veltro, how close is the 76 to the older version? Gonna do an Indian AF skin this week for certain and was hoping to work a civil operators skin this month. Curious as to how different the mapping will be.

 

And things have slowed enough for me i can finally finish the C-17 and actually do the 767 now...

just testing some experimental (well, not anymore!) tiles.

 

1st shot is Port Said/Port Faud, looking east at the "new" shipping bypass channel

2nd shot is Port Said, looking west at the city towards Lake Manzala

The entire length of the canal has been retiled to reflect The Real World ™. With the excepting of the north/south bypasses in the middle

 

now, if I can just get the height field fiddled with for the Litani River.....<sigh>

Interesting.  I don't know much about map making.  To my uninformed eye, it looks like eliminating the straight edged river banks would require custom tile art?

Is not a river, is the Suez Canal so it had to have straight banks.

 

Beautiful Kevin! Looking forward to see what you can do in Lebanon area including Litani and the Bekaa.

It started off as WW2 conversion experiment, as I wanted a terrain where carriers would work (they do!). I may release it as an alternative to the just-release "Palestine 2" WW2 map. At least on this one, the Royal Navy and Regia Marina will have something to do!

 

For a view of the Cairo region, see the ww2 screen shots thread (the one with the Gladiator). You'll see the Nile is now a REAL river, and both the Rashid and Damiata branches have been  corrected, along with a bunch of the small distributories. All stock tiles, plus the usual "customs".

Also removed the "exit" stream from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba, as such a thing does not exist. I've found numerous errors on the map. Coastal cities that are inland (due to lack of a ISTown-to-sea) tile)

Oddly, if anyone looks at the IME map with the TFD tool or Terrain Editor, you'll see in the upper right corner farm tiles representing the course of the Euphrates towards Turkey. Bit of a wasted effort, as that waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay behind The Wall

The stock IME terrain has 165 tiles. This one has 230.

 

I'd actually laid out the Litani river course, from above Tyre to that lake below Rayak.  Unfortunately, it ran uphill in both directions in some places... neither the TFD tool or repainting the height field bmp worked in "adjusting" it so I removed it. Pity, as I had to make another custom transition tile too. I may put it back, and just leave the height field "as is". Only going as far as the lake, as taking in further north towards Homs and beyond would require repositioning some mountains, cities and airbases (Rayak)

Standard Luftwaffe colours. Next step shading,bump and specular.

 

Is there a still a new G91R3 in progress? This came up a while ago.... was the project abandoned?

A new revamped Gina would be nice to see in the Germany campaigns.

Yes. And a R.4 & T.3 

Still waiting for the pit. But can´t say how long it will still take.

sick and tired of seeing IDF Dakota's parked on the ramp with the wrong paint jobs...sooooooooo over Natural Metal ™

(also doing the blue/brown early camo, and Del's C-130E. At the very least, will give the airbases some eye candy)
