Hello guys! First of all I want to say thank you! Over the past couple of months I received some messages from guys still looking forward to this one. I never finished this model, but after all the PM I thought it would be unfair to tease you and never let you bomb it. So I put the stuff together I've made so far and just give it out to you. Here is a render of the (very basic) destruction model: I will figure out how to implement it again and tell you where to get it by end of next week.

After a lot of work the past month and the pretty stressful holidays, I finally found some time to continue the project. I currently creating the destructed modell - this is even more challenging then a simply intact house :juggle: My intention was to create the full compound but for the time beeing I am happy if I finish the main building soon - but I hope, sooner or later, the rest will come to life too.

Thank you guys, for your positive feedback. Hi Skull, I definitly plan to release this to the public. Because even I can think of about half a dozen missionscenarios to use this. But I think, I have to consider this is kind of a sensitive topic. Besides that, I am far from beeing a real 3D artist or something like that. At the moment this model is realy the opposite of beeing optimized. I am currently working with a 2048x2048 .bmp as texture. This is 12mb in size. But i think I can reduce it to 1024x1024 without loosing to much of the details.

Hi, I would like to show you what i created the last 2 evenings. I modeled the main House of the bin Laden compound. I will work on the proportions and textures a little more, create LODs and the desctrucion model. Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us

As far as I know, that is not possible during Flight

Great model you made there! But, I have often seen the oto melara firing in real live, and I believe the smoke effect you use is to strong.

I understood, but I thought atorque did not get it so I wanted to give him a hint.

:huh:

After the collisionbox-thing worked well I now tried to create a model for the destroyed building. I made a second model with a new texture, copied the file "thecube_des.EDM" also in the Structures/High/EDM folder and added in the StructTable.sht . (The model is visible in the modelviewer) But now it is not shown in DCS. Does anyone know what I did wrong?

I am pretty sure it was. I now borrowed the Laptop of a colleaque and opend the file there. 3DS showed an error message about a texture. I then did the same steps as with my version and this time it worked without any problem.

FINALLY! ;)

Alright, I try to reininstall in English first. If this does not work I will come back to your offer ;)

Thanks for your ongoing support! Yes you are right, it is in german. Could this be the reason for my problem? I chage all the Values, except for the diffuse channel to 0. It did not help. May I send you my .max file and you take a look?

Ive choosen “default“ as described in the pdf and i am getting this error. But what do you mean with setting all unused to 0?
