crazyeddie Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 The selection of buildings in the ME drop down menu has hardly changed in the lifetime of the game and to be honest they are pretty poor in terms of quality and usefulness. The game maps are now full of wonderful fixed buildings, trees, bridges, you name it we have them on the maps, but we cant access them and its so frustrating having to use stuff that is well past its sell by date. Is there a plan to update or add them to the drop down menu's ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backy 51 Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 That's a great question and I second the request for more and newer static object menu items. I don't need no stinkin' GPS! (except for PGMs :D) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimes Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 I made a feature request a little while back for map objects to get added as something we can place as static objects. Considering Syria is out soon I should probably update that request again. If it is anything like PG then most of the static objects will look a bit out of place on Syria. The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

Mustang25 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 At this point I'd even take sand/tan reskins of the current statics... I really hope Syria comes with an asset pack and fresh statics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikey Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 I'd donate my left testicle to science for some up to date basic fortifications, static placeable buildings for targets, and... as UNIT not static so they werent so anoying to script with. This is such a basic thing.... i'd buy one for everyone with my new testicle cash. ___________________________________________________________________________ SIMPLE SCENERY SAVING * SIMPLE GROUP SAVING * SIMPLE STATIC SAVING * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruxtmp Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I am trying to learn blender to make some new building. I think that it will be the mod community that will need to bring new targets into the sim. I wish I was a modeler because it is not as easy as it appears. I want to make some port facility objects and oil refineries for the PG map as well as some buildings to bomb in the Bandar Abbas area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostrida9 Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 Hi, pretty similar to my latest thread Long story shoort, they don't need to work on it, all the buildings, homes, shelters, small stuff, fences and much much more is allready there, just check the persian gulf/nevada map. All they need to do is add most of those buildings to the ME static Object list, is that simple Plus they could give us a simple option ro "draw" speed trees across the map. It's all there allready, no textures or models needed, just the simple code to add all that to the ME PLEASE ED.. I'm tyred of building models.. it takes ages... and after some updates most stuff don't work nomore anyway, so we need an official Update Tel-Nof / Ovda Airbase Project If all real wars could only be fought in DCS.
