+Stephen1918 1,473 Posted November 7, 2018 (edited) For several years, I've been working on an improved Galicia terrain for the Eastern Front. I am (FINALLY) finished. I am doing some tweaking, gathering the parts and getting everything organized for upload. I hope to upload the finished package in a few days. The improved terrain includes new Farm and City tiles, new TODs for most of the tiles, more target areas, and a lot of eye candy. New features include more buildings in the cities, very small villages/farms, cavalry camps, field hospitals, static aircraft on all the airfields, and more active battle grounds. I have added a lot more detail to the whole terrain. Ojcar's Armchair Aces campaigns will not be affected.

+Stephen1918 1,473 Posted November 9, 2018 Thank you all for your comments. I think anyone who has done terrains will agree with me: It's hard to stop because you keep thinking of more things too add, and things that were finished months ago don't seem to be good enough anymore. There are still a lot of things that I would like to do but if I'm not careful, I will never be finished. I decided that it's good enough for now; maybe I will make a new version later. I am writing the installation instructions now and will upload the package later today or early tomorrow.. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Stephen1918 1,473 Posted November 10, 2018 (edited) I have uploaded the Galicia2 version 3 terrain - still awaiting administrator approval. In addition to the terrain, the download includes all the necessary ground objects along with instructions for installing in both FE1 and FE2.

Wilches 1,165 Posted November 13, 2018 Wow! The terrain still surprises me. So many new targets. Awesome landscape. Excelent framerate. No problems so far. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Stephen1918 1,473 Posted November 13, 2018 I appreciate the feedback, Wilches. Are you using FE1 or FE2? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wilches 1,165 Posted November 13, 2018 I´m using the FE2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wilches 1,165 Posted November 13, 2018 BTW, I know it´s not the correct forum for that, but Stephen is there a chance to make this Anatra DS version? It has a new engine cowling, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silberpfeil 363 Posted November 13, 2018 Good job, Stephen1918! Finally got this addendum downloaded and installed - everything loaded up neatly and plays well in my dedicated FE2 Galicia2 installation. Some very interesting new and (some) improved eye candy, and appropriate-looking terrain elevation modifications! So busy flying over the new digs and looking around I nearly got shot down due to lack of attention to the bad guys! 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+VonS 1,424 Posted November 14, 2018 (edited) A superb map Steven, thank you for this update to the eastern front! Frame-rates are good on my rig too, and already enjoying some early war scenarios on the map. (Tip: since many of the landscapes are fairly high alt., close to 1000m, as historical, stay away from the M-S type G Dux 45hp Anzani on some of the higher alt. 'dromes if flying for the Russ. Imperial Air Service - or you will be in for a world of hurt.) I've been using the Longhorn and, while slow, it can get up to about 3000 m alt. Great stuff gents. (Have also been doing some experiments with wind shear/turbulence - will include with a ver. 9.7 of the FM update pack eventually.)

It has a new engine cowling, Well... I'm of two minds. On the one had, I have a lot of projects that I started and haven't finished yet. I was planning to get some of them finished now that Galicia is done. On the other hand, I've been thinking about a Russian Civil War scheme for a long time. Since we already have most of the aircraft, it would just be a matter of tweaking FMs and skinning. A Polish Anasal would be good to have for that. I'll find my original Anatra DS files and see what I can do.... But I have some things I want to finish and upload first so it won't be right away.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
