View File Ramon Airbase Israel This is uncomplete work for the Ramon Airbase Israel If anyone would like to complete it that will be great, as I really don’t have the time to finish it. you will find the max file as well as the link to the AB for google map and some screenshots that I used to get the AB models.

This is an interesting Skyhawk Walkaround. This aircraft is my dream jet airplane.

I totally agree with you, I have been using it for the same task making the new AB flat ground.

Excellent work as always

This is how the new airbase will look like, this is just the baseline I need to add all the extra hangers taxiway and so on. the texture skin is just to show the AB it is not final. it is taken form Xplane game.

Hi russouk2004, That will be great, thanks a lot.

My next project after I complete the BTR-40 open-top model will be the BM-21-Grad requested by Piecemeal.

That will be done after completing the model in the data file. know problem there ;)

completed the civilian airport main terminal (some work need to be done to the skin). Next will be to work on the military base.

You are absolutely correct they have been for along time. I meant some new models to go with the new AB.

Thank you for your feedback and ideas, all will be modelled to go along with their airbase.

There are 29 hard hangar in the AB ( not including the supporting aircrafts ) so it's support one squadron and 5 extra hangars as the squadron consist of 24 fighter.

I will do my best to make it

Another small update nothing finalized, more work needed with the UVW and skin. the model will be low poly so it will not affect the frame rate.

This is one nice tutorial I like to share it with you.

Just completed the civilian airport main terminal next I need to do the UVW and making the skin.

Hello russouk, I just wanted to correct what you stated if you don't mind me doing so. you can only use max 2010 to save as 2009 but anything above that can only save three down for example 2014 can save as 2013, 2012, 2011. with the exception for 2011 cant save down.

If you set the material editor to "Hardware Display with Maps" it should make it smoother and clearer. Look at the difference in the 2 screenshots provided. Using 3D Max 2009. 1 with a standard display with maps which looks like you described lol. But if you set it like how I explained it should be better. You'll see more details/get better results. Another example

You are correct, but maybe more than one LOD but not big poly

Hello, I would like to share with you what I have been using to make my first airbase, its Open street map. using the OSM you can get all the information anyone needs for any AB it will give you the runway length and name number etc. or the taxiway or building too. I thought this will be something nice to share with you. https://www.openstreetmap.org

Just a small update with all the military hangars setup for testing.

This is another AB I would like to complete its the Al Udeid Air Base is a military base southwest of Doha, Qatar, also known as Abu Nakhlah Airport. Work on progress but it will take a long long time to complete.

This is one other thing that I am experiencing with making streets and building using the map data.

I just completed the civilian airport, I changed it completely as I didn't like the way it looked. so this is how it is going to look next I need to work on the terminal and the mics for the airport.
