Gütersloh Airbase Project (Screenshots & resources)
Ghostrida9 replied to Ghostrida9's topic in DCS: Cold War Germany
Thanks a lot for the flowers @Esac_mirmidon yes, you kinda got that right, if i'll ever finish this.. then yes, the package will contain a mission file, a zip folder called RAF_Gütersloh, a few triggers..everything needed. I will set up a homepage for the whole project real soon, plus add stuff to a youtube channel cause i got a few ideas up my sleeve The goal might be to work on more bases like Büchel, Pferdsfeld.. and lets see what will happen in phase 2.. and hopefully a big update for phase 1 cause so far all airbases are very inaccurate when it comes to the layout..i'm not even start to mention buildings.. @asinartThx, i knew this video allready... working on some Small stuff.. gas tanks, electric boxes.. offices.. you name it -

Working on the big one: HANGAR 1 – by far the most dominant and massive building at Gütersloh Airbase. It still puzzles me why UGRA Media released a map without modeling such a central structure. This one really defines the airbase. -

Thanks @Manschy @Harry.RThx alot, yea i go with what i got, thats a few pictures and mostly bing maps (bird view) https://www.bing.com/maps?cp=51.930275~8.2987&lvl=19.7&style=g&dir=-90... still not easy to make out some details.. but better then nothin', i wrote a message to the local Airbase museum, maybe they can provide some detailed pictures or someone is close by and got access to the base.. i'm too far away Anyway.. next building in the works.. its close to the previous one.. don't know what this is either..looks interesting tho.. -

Thanks to everybody... I'm back at it.. yea i first thought it was a storage shelter but figured it was/is an QRA Shelter... @Manschy Started working on this area.. guess its a repair workhshop or some.. i don't know.. other important building which is of course not modeled.... -
Working a bit on Bagram Airbase... the Fuel Bunkers are missing in DCS, there's also a smaller version at the base.. (model coming soon). so far...

What can't we release Cold War Germany Phase 2 without?
Ghostrida9 replied to MAESTR0's topic in Wish List
Reduce the Killer High Grass by at least 80%, it's driving me nuts to say the least, should not be difficult to reduce the model file in speedtree and implement it into the scenery file. And please, make the Airbases more accurate before even thinkin' bout Phase 2 or 3, at least the ground tiles and road map, up to the gates of all bases. Google maps, Bing maps will help you alot. Havin satellite images like the Afghanistan map remains a dream... Thanks... -

LOL those billboards are hillarious... even the NATO ones... first time i saw them i burst out in laughter.. i thought about to do a mod with the Southpark cartoon on it.. use the Scenery remove object tool and remove them... -
same goes for Büchel Airbase, and while we at it, the Tower is wrong, the Main Radar Tower is completely missing...

@Esac_mirmidon Thx.. @skywalker22 you probably know the basics but.. 1. Research, research..research 2. Create models and textures / Roughmets/ Normal maps and render them as dds/EDM files 3. create lua files 4. Headache...because you figure that the Airbase/Airport layout is inaccurate... 5. Thinking until you get headache again... 6. Headache..the Killer High grass is drivin you nuts... 7. A lot of trial and error.. Back to work. I'll be away for a week, but some more updates for now.. Again, UGRA has not yet created most of the critical military infrastructure like those huge "grass" bunkers...there're at least 3 of them at Gütersloh, the place is completely empty on their map.. no layout.. nothing !! Creating the ground layout above the "Killer Grass" is really annoying work to say the least... -

Thanks to all of you, Thx @Manschy, i allready have the "old" shelter door as texture so it's easy to change it, a good idea is to have maybe Hangar 6 and & 7 with the old doors and the rest with the new ones, so it's a bit of the base in it's transition. Regarding inaccuracy.. there's a waste water plant at the base located north west, close to the shelters.. i can understand that Ugra has not created the buildings or something.. ok, but not even creating the concrete ground tiles..?! just trees and thats it !!!!, They should really work with Satellite images, would be much much better. I tryed what i could to create this spot, still small parts of the KILLER HIGH GRASS is coming through... but, anyway you get it..- 63 replies

a lot is going on lately but i keep creating my own PBR textures when i get to it, it takes time but the good thing is that many of those textures can be used for many buildings. Just a few more normal maps and roughmets are missing. I also created a few more models allready.. anyway... a small update.. more soon- 63 replies

i fully agree, they should skip Phase II and III so far until the Airbases are fixed, lakes are missing around some bases, the Road map on bases is mostly inaccurate. Spangdahlem looks totally wrong, they even put a german village into the base almost, at a spot where the main gate is, and where storage buildings and military infrastructure should be. Also please add more parklng lots and more accurate detail according mostly to bing or google maps.. the detail we have right now is pretty inaccurate or unnecessary. I hope they give all Airbases a major overhaul. Radar Towers are missing and so much more...

Ugra media has yet not created even one of the major buildings for this Airbase.. hope they skip Phase 2 and 3 until everything looks much more realistic, also the road map on this airbase is kinda off.. again, google maps is your friend to some degree. Same goes for all the other bases so far... work in progress model for the large Main hangars 2, 3, 5, and 6..
