Verdun: Fort Douaumont and Fort Vaux

[+gterl]

Hi

 

it always troubled me, that TK didn't include the forts around Verdun

 

At least for two of them this should now be fixed

 

Fort Douaumont

 

Fort Vaux

 

Pls follow the readme in the attached file if you like it

Douaumont_Vaux.rar

 

cheers

Very cool idea gterl! But I don't know if its just my setup but what's the tile supposed to be near the fort? It has some grass and craters but looks like it's in the shape of a fort. See pics:

Great addition gterl. It's almost creepy flying over the ruins. I've seen the before and after photos of fort Douaumont.

Taken from original photos and played around with PS

You now have distinct differences between fort Vaux and fort Douaumont

 

1. Add these lines (obviously change the numbering) to your WWIVERDUN_DATA.INI file (if you've already the one with FRFort.bmp you just have to add the one with the FRFort2.bmp).

 

[TextureXXX]
Filename=FRFort.bmp
HasWater=0
Color=0.487298,0.464698,0.352547
SolidObjectTexture=Venkov.TGA
AlphaObjectTexture=Stromy.TGA

[TextureXXX]
Filename=FRFort2.bmp
HasWater=0
Color=0.487298,0.464698,0.352547
SolidObjectTexture=Venkov.TGA
AlphaObjectTexture=Stromy.TGA

 

2. Drop the attached TFD file into your wwiVerdun terrain folder (replacing my older version)

 

3. Copy the attached bmp's into all the seasonal folder as explained in the first post

 

..have fun & let me know
