The Harrier, as pictured, would represent a Gr.5 rather than a Gr.7.  The 7 & 9 had a few more lumps and bumps than on the 5, especially the ECM "tusks" on the nose.  Why RAZBAM couldn't have gone the extra mile to add these lumps and bumps to give us Brits a sense of identity within DCS is beyond me 

 

 

 

 

This is a superb project, thank you very much Ghostrida9.   When Laarbruch, Wildenwrath, and especially Bruggen come along, would you consider giving them the same makeover?

 I think you might like this mod.

Hi MrJollyRoger,  I have seen this mod.  I downloaded it a while back.  Opened the box, looked inside, read the instructions, wept uncontrollably as my brain melted, and shoved it into a dark corner of my hard drive

It looks wonderful in the screenshots, it really does. Kudos to the creator, but holy Hanna, for an ignoramus such as myself, the instructions are like black magic.  Thank you for thinking of posting it here, though.

It’s a great mod but it also breaks IC and it’s for a module that’s not supported anymore

Wow I have no idea how I can Thankyou for doing this.      My Dad was based at Gutesloh 79 to 82 with 230 Sqn as a loadmaster on Pumas.      I have some memories of my time there ( I was only 7 at the time ).   I know there was a dry ski slope, as I took one hell of a tumble on it. .   Put me off skiing for life.     
 

The military married quarters were a series of tower blocks in Harsewinkle just up the road from the base. 
 

While I will be using Gutesloh as my main base, I am aware that it’s currently very far from realistic.     I cannot wait to see where this project goes and I’ll certainly be downloading it if possible.

Kudos to your work.

That whole thread reminds me alot that DCS needs an option for scenery designers (professional and mods) to add and even replace map areas with better objects and designs. Some parts maybe can already be done via ME but that doesn't work with everything and it just works with a certain mission. 

In my opinion ED misses a big opportunity for add-ons like that that can make DCS maps so much better as I think no map designer as professional as they already are can make everything perfect plus maintain area progressions over time.

Happy about the GR7 version, but have to say that the FRS1/2 version ..... hmmm..... looks like a make-believe. Nice morph of a GR7 and a FRS, but would use it in no case.

Thanks to everybody so far, pretty bussy with texturing and creating textures mostly so far, experimenting and all that.. no joke gimme that terrain editing tool and i fix most of the wrong ground detail, roads, missing lakes around Gütersloh in no time... its not that much.

.. and uhm.. sorry Ugramedia...what is that building you placed at the spot where the Storage shelter should be....

here we go...

Ugra ¡¡¡¡

Hire Ghostrida9 ¡¡¡¡¡¡

[LightningF6]

Holy cow!!! This has made my day, I know Ugra have a lot on their plate so I am extremely grateful for what we have, I fly no other map!! This just takes it to another level, wow wow wow!!

[Manschy]

Sooo great - thanks for your tireless effort!

[Ghostrida9]

Thanks a lot !!

I had to create my own PBR textures and tryed different colors schemes that would work, I still need a few more but so far, things are going well. For the first time i also played around and created some Roughmets.

Sure there's a lot when it comes to the landscape detail itself which is missing, even the small lake which is located north west of the base is missing and yes the Ems river is wrong.. don't know UGRA should work with Google or Bing maps so at the least the landscape and roads would be accurate. The "Killer High Grass" is a problem no matter what you try..

 

Roughmet..

Ugra media has yet not created even one of the major buildings for this Airbase.. hope they skip Phase 2 and 3 until everything looks much more realistic, also the road map on this airbase is kinda off.. again, google maps is your friend to some degree. Same goes for all the other bases so far...

work in progress model for the large Main hangars 2, 3, 5, and 6..
