TO CHILE AND SOUTHAMERICA

@Cloud:
Please explain what you mean by serious modders. You mean the ones who take theaters that are idle and cheat the code by not adding inland water and bridges so the .mea/.thr files and the code are a moot point. The ones who assign every land tile as a plains with a road path so links and landscape no longer play a part in the campaign. I could go on, but I’m sure I’ll receive backlash over my comments. They really should discontinue to listen to the “ONE” supplying them with these cheats.
IMO, there is only one team faction on this forum that are serious theater modders, and that’s the BMS team. There are a few others that work on theaters that are trying to do the right things, but they don’t receive any credit for their work because they don’t release them under public pressure and scrutiny and they take their time.
Since I posted in this thread about having another South American theater, Venezuela, I have received many requests from individuals asking for the theater. That won’t happen. I have several theaters I am working on and I won’t let them go public until they are right and worthy of being released. Those include, Venezuela, Alaska, Baltic and several others I won’t divulge at this time. If I were to release them, they’d only end up being altered and disfigured.
Yes, it takes time, but I’m not going to release half baked theaters like what we see on a regular basis here on the forums. There’s also the consideration of the BMS update versions. They’ve already said something is in the works and more things will come and theaters will need to be rebuilt again, and who knows when that will settle down. So really, there’s no rush to bring them up to date with something new then have to turn around and do it again in a short period, well short by the Falcon timeline!! LOL

I just very much hoped for that it (Venezuela and Alaska for example) could still be released, as is, for 4.33 before it will be converted into 4.34 (only).
Also I think the best way to develop theaters would be in some form of open source project (github for example).
I remember Israel 1980 did it in a similar way.
This way anybody who wants and has the best skills for something (terrain, lods, textures, UI ) could contribute. Also many hands could make lighter work.
On the other hand I work on a theater myself, alone, for fun and practice and it can be done although it takes a lot of effort and time (and sometimes some extra help from the Gurus;-)
Anyway it’s your work and I can live with any choice of the owner of a project. It’s his work and his right to do so.Cheers Obi1

Greeting C9!
If you need help regarding the Venzuelan theater, PM me if you need skins or things like that.
Cheers,
Rypley.

This is the speech, Obi and Rypley!
+1.
On my little own, deeply sorry for being able to… only being able to test the final result. Such things are, sometimes.
With best regards.

No problem pal! We’re here to help each other (corny, but true)

And if in some way you should ever need to have it tested, C9, I would be particularly glad to be counted in to.
With best regards.

Thanks Luke777 for converting Peru 4.33 to 4.34U2.
the mod is not fully working, only basic terrain stuff. no campaign.
to save file size, the mod DB is directed to use default KTO files.

Thanks a lot, ccc (and Luke too!).
Going for it, not to test it (it’s maybe too early), but just because I’m curious, as you know well…
Update: might some to be refined still, perhaps, but there is a lot of interesting stuff anyway also from the strategical point of view, and thus the possbile campaigns to be developed.
And nice main page! So much good memories, by the way.With best compliments to you both, and regards.

@Cloud-9 MY GOD I HAVE FOUND HEAVEN… Someone help me make contact with him… or whoever has that theater and I can finish it and publish it… it is an excellent theater and I have proposed to integrate Block 15 with its old cabin to give it much more realism… I have all the data for that theater
-
Now with the horrible news of the passing away of Cloud9. RIP. Will this Venezuela theater still see the daylight? Does anyone know whether Cloud9 shared this zip with others to work on it?
-
@Obi1 Cloud9 has passed away???
-
@Amadeus75 Yes, see here: https://forum.falcon-bms.com/post/387542

My God we have lost a great contributor to theaters… rest in peace
-
@Obi1 I’ll have to do it again… so far I haven’t found anyone who has a file like that… I’m working on various projects and I have to put the plans in order…
-
@ccc1tw I can take the zip of the Venezuelan theater of operations and completely remodel everything… with all the aircraft modified with textures and I am in collaboration with
Please tell me if you are interested. It is the perfect theater for BMS.
-
sorry i don’t have that theater zip.

terrible news… very sad.
