Nealius Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) It looks like their source of topographic data has issues and they never double-checked with street view or pictures of the actual locations. Edited July 4, 2021 by Nealius 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of issues with the geometry - it also looks fairly coarse. I'll try and do a detailed post about it.

GEIST Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 (edited) Hey, I'd like to see that in the game as well and put the island together earliert today. Obviously still needs the foliage and a proper integration to the map. If the team and you guys are interested, is there a way to share that with the community or pass to the ED maps team to add to the game somehow?

GEIST Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 (edited) Playing around with the integration - still needs to be a bit better and the foliage is missing. Probably too small as well. The main problem is that the trees covering the flat island underneath cast a shadow even if they are covered by another object. But once it's complete I'll share the file and if ED wants to use please be my guest! Edited September 9, 2021 by GEIST 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye60 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 If you would like to be able to place this island upon the sea/water, use this lua file. It will make the island a "ship" but I have crippled the engines so it may not move! (must have been bad gas) Nice work here! Reminds me of my Pacific Islands mod! Found in the mods forums. Cheers!
