Great job!!!

First iteration of runway Textures
thanks for the feedback!

Looking amazing :bdance:
Keep the Hard work! -

Keep the Hard work!In short:
agreeded, +100! It looks nice since the first glance.With best wishes and regards.

In an attempt to make the airbase model as realistic as I can,
I decided to model what i believe to be the closest we’ll get to an Israeli aircraft bunker.This is aimed to increase the sense of realism while flying in and out of the airbase

looks great… the ITO guys must have wet their pants… :lol:

Be careful with poly-count! … Think about doing lower LODs to be able to make a rapid transition to lower poly-count.
Other advice, to not make “a big global object” but rather smaller part (in order to be able to have consistent damage model).
Even better, if your building are symmetrical, consider doing only one “part” as single Feature (like a single Hangar) , then on Objectives, copy/past the Feature … much simpler, and consisted damage model.Other advantage of this, LODs will be more efficient since you will have multiple objects, rather than a single block more difficult to manage in term of LODs.
Ruel of thumb, avoid as much as possible large blocks … prefer several parts (with proper LODs and damaged LODs). -
Of course. i’ll be using different LODs and the models are seperated to account for in-game use with as low of a polycount as I could manage.
the higher poly detail will only be shown when you are in the direct area around the model. -

I don’t think the specific “parts” will be ever damaged, or something getting close enough to produce damage! lol
@Spearhead very very nice! Will you also implement the height elevation difference in the tarmac area models as per real? (assuming it is possible to handle)

I don’t understand sorry.

I mean nobody can threaten Israel and no weapon system will ever be able to target and hit (any) targets there…;

Overall- looks SUPERB! +1 to the "the ITO guys must have wet their pants… " comment

Ah ok. … but its a game. Everything is possible.

I wish! The only way to do that would be to raise the whole airfield and make a model for the ground around the runways. Even then I don’t know if the collision model will work correctly for taxiing up and down things.
The objects will just be above ground somewhat like the shelters in DCS with the ground texture on top

This does look great indeed! Keep it up!

I wonder if we have a push back function in BMS…
At least I never heard about it.
Could be great to get your aircraft inside with a nice GSE pushing your F16 like IRL.

Many issues here …
Indeed, no pushback.
Other problem is that, you can limit the access to those shelter to a/c with a wing span equal or less than an F-16, but if you (or any theatre builder) add some other a/c type on the airbase (i.e. F-15, F-14, Su-33 …) much larger than F-16, if we set the PkPoint inside the shelter you will have to choose:- Accept graphical issue of wing conflicting with walls.
- Accept to restrict those shelter to F-16 (and less) only but in that case, you have to have a lot of other place where wider a/c can spawn. If you don’t have those places, ATC will be messed up by a/c spawning in the wild.
… This is why on most airbases, when I do not have a lot of possible spawn-points that match with any kind of big fighters, I do not pout the PtPoint into shelters.

But why would someone want to put SU-33’s and F-14’s on an Israeli F-16 airbase ? At some point if people decide to do fantastic stuff it is up to them to live with the limitations.

That is not a point (I would say).
We must be able to anticipate as much possibilities as possible. It force some compromises.
Replace Su-33 by F-111 or F-22 … or anything you like in a fictitious scenario. Otherwise we can disregard and not solve many issue considering that it is not “normal” use.
