Ground Texture Mod- Watch This!

[Ells228]

Superb work there bro

[grandsurf]

grandsurf, can the RW and TW beacons be also modded? I mean adding a complete model instead of floating light.

 

No Problem, when you tell me, how to make the floating light :music_whistling:.

And if You make a beacon with transparent glass? :)

No need to model light source itself. ;)

 

PS. Or did I said something extremely stupid? :D

[grandsurf]

New Stuff, made some Runway holds on the Taxiways. Simply a Plane with Texture ;). Parking slots signs are also no problem.

 

 

[Ells228]

I'm loving those too, damn fine job

Might be an idea to add some weathered effects to the signs; They seem a bit too new.

Yeah indeed. You will add these signs to every airfield or only to the airports like Simferopol, Anapa and Sochi?

 

Does anyone know how look the signs on russian type military airbases? Are there any? Can't find a picture for it.

Everything looks stunning, keep up the good work :)

Grandsurf can you please expain few facts?!

 

1) Are you modding terrain textures for all 4 seasons? It would be great to have more snow during winter. Default winter terrain seems to grey!

 

2) Can U make two separate mods, one for terrain textures and other for runway and taxiway textures? So if one wants to keep default RW and TW textures it would be possible. I just got back from MAKS 2007 held at Zhukovski AB and taxiways and runway tiles look just like ones we have in LO while those from your Screen Shots might seem to westernized for Caucasus and Crimean airbases!

One Problem, my new Texture Planes on Ground become no shadows!? Whats the Problem here? Have i which forgotten to adjust in Max? :helpsmilie:

I find it hard to keep up to date with all mods I like with tempo like that!

 

But never mind, since Wags announced that BS might be solely Ka-50 focused and if ED don't want to improve current FC appearance we'll support guys like Teka Teka, Birdy and Grandsurf as much as we can!

Anyone a Tip for the Shadow Problem :)?

[Witchking]

dude.... just a little comment. as the others said... u need weathering on the signs. You have done a terrific job with the runway so I am pretty sure that you can manage making the sign realistic. :D

You can probably PM Necroscope, he was working on a similar project a while ago but stopped due to some problems. Hopefully its not the same shadow problem you are referring to but its worth a shot. http://forum.lockon.ru/showthread.php?t=20951

Yepp, work on it ;).

[markriley]

awesome work man, looking forward to seeing it on my system when you get it done. Thank God for the modders who keep this sim alive.

No, as I remember, he had another reason for closing his project. Also he was only changing textures but not adding 2D/3D objects.

[diveplane]

nice work, now we need runway beacons

OK, reworked the Sign to a used-Look now :)...

 

[Laivynas]

Good enough. :)

But is it not too high quality? What about system load?

Still these scratches and dirt will be visible from a very close distance.

[Kuky]

man... this is coming along so nicely... I can't wait to get my hands on this mod :D
