My next terrain project

[+Gepard]

I was not happy with the Mirage IIIEBR from the download, because it is a EBR-2 with canards. I wanted one without canards. So i took the Mirage5SDE, from TKs DLC pack 28, which looks like a Mirage IIIE, gave it the blue stock french Mirage IIIC skin (okay i modded it a little bit), made some decals magic and there it is: Mirage IIIEBR close to the look of 1982 (I know, they had not had the name FAB on the fuselage, but with it it looks much cooler.)

If you meet a argentinian Mirage IIIEA in the air you have a plane and weapons of the same performance. Then decide the skill of the pilot.

I must rework the river mouth, because it does not really fit to the other coastal tiles. So it looks now:

[+Wrench]

yeah, you're gonna have to start dredging pretty soon, given the amount of silt in that river (<gr>)

[+Gepard]

Kaboom!

To be honest, at low altitudes the watertiles are looking not very good.

A factory in the town Maipu, Argentina, seen in the Editor tool.

As requested by our argentinian friends i moved the Tandil Airbase to the west. For game balance reasons i created a temporary airfield at the place of the former Tandil Airbase.

So the new airfield looks in game:

First i made riverforks by using rivermouth tiles, but the result was not satisfying. There were blue spots in brown rivers. Not so good. Thatwhy i made a new tile for riverforks. So it looks in game:

The current planning map for version 1.2.

You see the new place for Montevideo, that Tandil is moved to the west (Its still not yet the real life position), a new airfield for the Argentinians, the grey spots in Argentina which mark smaler towns and  a little bit difficult to see the riverdelta north of Buenos Aires.

What i will do till release of v.1.2:

-creating the urugayan airbase between Punta del Este and Punta Negra, sorry i have forgotten the same at the moment.

-adding some more towns in Argentina

What you decided for the brown Rio de la Plata bay?

This will be the last step of terrain development, because it required a lot of new tiles. This are the sea tile, the coastline tiles for farmland and cities and transition tiles for brown to blue water. And this for two tilesets. I think 40 to 50 new tiles or so.

Didn't knew it was such amount of job!

Interesting video from WarThunder about argentinian Tank TAM.

I found the time to include the parking plane positions of Montevideo Airport.

16 parking slots for small planes and 16 for large planes.

Montevideo need the pseudo AC-47 from Uruguayan Air Force, dont you agree @wilches?

FAU 508 with 3 .50 machine guns on the side, the other two where  FAU 510 and FAU 514, sadly it was only a test and this configuration only lasted a few days.

 

[Wilches]

That´s for sure my friend! As Snowburn knows, I did this armed C-47 based on YAP´s one but I not sure about its released once it came from there.

I dont know, wheter it will be possible, in SF2 world, to fit a plane with movable guns against groundtargets.

unfortunately, it's not; as the AC-119, AC-47 and AC-130s all show. Pity!!

[+Stratos]

Is possible, adding a special aircraft object in the ground. Yap did that for its Hueys, now that is a free addon, maybe we can take a look how they did.

I started to make 3 new coastal tiles for smaller town at the sea.

As you see the tile is, at the moment, only made for the brown season. The green season comes later. In a next step i will add small houses and relocate trees which stands now in the town, but not belongs to there.

Looks like a cool resort to walk a bit and have an ice cream!

im sure i've seen a hot dog stand as ground target on some map

[+Wrench]

the "hot dog stand" is a fixture/feature on every terrain I build. What we really need is "the golden arches" 

Excellent work on that tile Gepard!!!

[Wilches]

Why not a Five Guys instead? My fav!!!
