WIP - Guam Theatre

@Fighting:
+1
+1. ATM search for info for an IL-2 mod I intend to prepare today, not as easy as I thought getting solid coherent info. And I only need geographical info lol.

No need to “Fix” the Tiles ATM……They are being rebuilt and are “growing” to accommodate the 3D objects scale and L2 elevation limits in BMS.
I think Anderson needs a runway lighting and taxiway lights. I thought that without 3D taxiway and runway lighting will be hard to do. So I tried, and I think it is possible.
A few hours of work, does not look good. But you can do it in 3Ds Max without help of 3D taxiway and runway:

Arek,
Thank you for the effort!!! Yes there are endless possibilities for Custom Model’s\LOD’s in Guam.
But, as I stated to Danguard the tiles are “growing” to accommodate both the L2 elevation issue and the Model Scaling issues in Falcon\BMS……
I plan to release the final tiles and L2 for AndersenAFB soon…then we can apply what we’ve made\learned to it!!!Also, and MOST important!!! To ALL, Please DO NOT ADD to the Database!!!There are PLENTY of unused CT Records we can use \takeover for Guam.

It is so refreshing to see so much developer-type activity in this topic.
@neystratiou - Thanks for the info. Hopefully that link helps with your research to track down data.
No feedback on North Field or Orote Field - are those going to be closed or active airfields in the theatre?
-
All Air Base objectives will remain and be fully operational in game. I\We do not have the luxury of 40 or so AB’s to use for building Campain’s.

Hi my friend.
Well in other theaters can you fly inside 3D world (e.g. the default Korea theater)?
If yes, did you follow the instructions correct as said Dave “demer928”?

The Guam Theatre Why no sound and background music?

sure,sure,no problem. I think the problem with my Guam theater may be OS(WinXP) related.

As far as the No Sound issue……some users have it, some users don’t !!! No idea why, ATM, and it is low on the priority list…sorry.
Not being able to enter 3D might have something to do with trying to use a laptop to play.GUAM is pretty demanding on the GFX end.

Dave,
I had a chance to start the bad boy up just now. Wow, man, you did an amazing job! I’m thoroughly impressed.Toonces -

There should be a lot of “WE” in that statement……LOL!, but thanks from all of us.
Enjoy the “First Blush” because again, something more wickedly twisted is on it’s way……:mrgreen:…LOL!!!

BTW the MIL Objs. in Camp are the bare min. for the Air war attrition scenario to EndGame……feel free to add, but I’d advise against removing any. Unless of course you intend to change the .tri file.
Also, there are a lot of “Easter Eggs” in this release to take into consideration. I put\left them in for others to stumble upon in hopes to inspire a more open discussion of why the same theater “BUGS” persist from one theater to another.
But, have at it, if you so decide.regards,

Dave,
I was going to wait until you had a stable release before I start tweaking anything. -
Dave,
I was going to wait until you had a stable release before I start tweaking anything.Kewl’ Thanks for that bit O’ respect……but please feel free to “Play” with the ALPHA if you want. You know that I have a “favorite” ear for your Scenario idea’s.
Carry on, Commander, the Deck is your’s…

Nice work on the terrain!
Using photo-real tiles and terrain are the way to go! The scenery looks crappy at low altitudes, but realistic at high altitudes. I would rather there be WAY less 3D buildings and all photo-real tiles in more terrain sets. In most of the terrains I have seen for Falcon, the 3D buildings in the Cities are rarely ever matched to the tiles anyway. That, and a lot of 3D buildings create the biggest FPS issue in the game by far. My FPS drops dramatically when entering any city with a large amount of 3D buildings.

What???:shock: I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS THEATRE!! O…M…G…Here we go…Alpha beta…whatever…downloading…(breath):fart:

Dave,
Funny you should mention this theater in the other thread because I’ve been thinking of picking it back up.What I really, really need before I can get serious about this are some database edits.
Specifically, I’d like the following edits. I need AMRAAMs completely removed from the following aircraft:
F/A-18A
F/A-18B
F/A-18C
F/A-18D
F-16AGR
F-16 A/B/C-(all blocks less than block 50)
F-15A
F-15AGRsI need anything that can fire and forget removed from:
Kfir (I think the Kfir crashes BMS, but it’s been a while since I tried it)
F-14A/B/DAnybody that is competent with database editing and would like to make those changes, it would help me greatly to work up some trial campaigns.
I’ll do the skin edits.
Aloha,
Toonces -
