I usually fly the A-10CII, however often dabble in helicopters like the Kiowa, Apache, and Chinook. The FPS in helicopters near forested areas really takes a hit, especially in helicopters!

PeeJott17 Posted June 22 Posted June 22 @LucShepthis looks awesome and I will test it out asap. A little question regarding map-textures: Would it be possible to only swap runway + taxiway-textures on the marianas-wwII map to more modern runways, say 1960'ish style runways and leave the Rest unchanged? What would be a simple and easy route to do this? Cheers, PeeJott

PeeJott17 Posted June 23 Posted June 23 @LucShep pretty please? It would be really cool to have fitting runway-textures on the WW-II marianas for the timeframe 1960. I would just need to know what is needed to be changed where...

I don't run the Marianas map (pretty bad performance and of very little interest to me, ended up deleting it), so unfortunately I can't help you there. But my guess is that anyone with basic modding and 2D texturing skills will be able to easily do it. It's a matter of finding the respective textures inside the texture packages, then adapt and repackage the new ones.

I was looking around in the texture folders, vfs and vfs_min and only found mask-textures and no "real" textures. I was hoping you could point me in a direction to find the "real" textures so I can set to work. And may-be shed some light as to how things are set-up for maps. I normally only work on aircrafts and find my way around there decently now but never have touched maps...that's why so many noob-questions Cheers and thanks a lot 1
Stratos Posted June 25 Posted June 25 That's what I get If I try to swap airports. I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai!
LucShep Posted June 25 Author Posted June 25 @PeeJott17 and @Stratos doesn't seem related to CGTC. If the subject is Marianas modding, then perhaps better open a separate thread for it? 1 CGTC - Caucasus retexture | A-10A cockpit retexture | Shadows Reduced Impact | DCS 2.5.6 - a lighter alternative Spoiler Win10 Pro x64 | Intel i7 12700K (OC@ 5.1/5.0p + 4.0e) | 64GB DDR4 (OC@ 3700 CL17 Crucial Ballistix) | RTX 3090 24GB EVGA FTW3 Ultra | 2TB NVMe (MP600 Pro XT) + 500GB SSD (WD Blue) + 3TB HDD (Toshiba P300) + 1TB HDD (WD Blue) | Corsair RMX 850W | Asus Z690 TUF+ D4 | TR FN 240 | Fractal Meshify-C | UAD Volt1 + Sennheiser HD-599SE | 7x USB 3.0 Hub | 50'' 4K Philips PUS7608 UHD TV + Head Tracking | HP Reverb G1 Pro (VR) | TM Warthog + Logitech X56

PeeJott17 Posted July 1 Posted July 1 Been flying a bit more on the retextured Caucasus lately and have to say: Very good job @LucShep Looks really really good and more like a normal environment. The kind of "artificial" atmosphere is pretty much gone. 3 1
