Mustang, could you make a tutorial on how to edit texture files?

[Insonia]

Now bumped to v1.04 in first post: decided to go all out and re-do the tiles using 'POINT' format mipmaps, looks alot better IMO - as you ascend the terrain textures keep a very nice degree of detail against other features such as the fields.

 

(P.S file size has again unavoidably crept up to around 250mb, this is due to the inclusion of the forest base textures receiving the POINT mipmap treatment so they keep in check with the rest of the set.)

Thanks Mustang. Looks good and have looked good on my display all the time. I will remake my OvGME packed file and post it again asap.

Thanks, HiJack! OvGME version is much appreciated :thumbup: And thanks to Mustang, of course!

A bit late with the update. Here are the OvGME format of the mod that replaces the .zip files correctly so it will work without your self creating and editing the folders. The mod have put on quite a bit of weight so the files are larger. You can of course do the same job yourself also by using Mustangs files and create the zip files.

Just add this file to the OvGME folder that mods DCS App folder and enable. :)

 

PS! Remember to disable the mod first if you already have it installed.

 

OvGME format of the mod updated to 1.04

Pleaseeeeeee!!!

The winter is coming Sir Mustang :lol:

 

 

Great job, I appreciate your updates.

Thank so much Mustang :thumbup:

Looks great! Love the continious updates as well:) Great progress!

[PicksKing]

This looks really awesome.

Are you going to improve the field textures as well, Mustang?

[Mustang]

A heads up! regarding DCS updates such as todays, if you use this mod you will need to replace the terrain.cfg.lua from the one in the package or DCS will use the original which will screw with the way the modded textures work.

I have had a look at these and I gotta say it's got me scratching my head, the way they're handled with overlaying mask textures for example so I'm not going to rush into this one just yet.

Thanks for the tip Mustang

[FistofZen]

Thanks. This is awesome.

Mod started with 70-80 Mb, now it has 300 :), thanks Mustang again!

Strange, but with this version (1.05) if I switch seasons (instaled via JSGME too) I didnt notice "old" textures below trees.... :D : Does it work from now?

 

 

Summer after autumn.

No idea why this could be happening, maybe ED altered something in the patch today? or just a fluke? :)

Mustang... if it gets added in as normal with OvGME doesn't it replace it with the one in the mod or are you saying add the one from the stock folder you provided even after activation of the OvGME install ? Sorry tech challenged on this one.

Those images look fantastic :) I wish my controls would get here already, I've been down since the start of the year. Getting itchy
