WIP - Guam Theatre
-
Yeah, the theatre includes the Northern Marianas up to (and including) Saipan.
Only Guam is blue. The rest are red.

Hey Demer, here is some more info: I went to Red Flag, the movie from Korea played when I clicked on the box, selected the squadron (not sure which one, but it was the only choice at Andersen AFB) got the normal PAK etc box up, all sliders were at left except for aircraft, so pressed OK, and start campaign button. All seemed fine and normal, just no missions generated. It just said planning……
BTW, I also had to do the draw some plains thing on some tiles at Guam Airport to enable me to spawn without blowing up, when I made a TE. Works OK now…Edit: Ok, it does not work today however - yesterday, I added some plains to the tiles, saved the bin file and the L2 file in the TE tool and was able to fly from Guam. Today however, the same TE and I blow up when I spawn there. I have re checked and saved the bin and L2 files again just now, but this time, no joy…
Another gremlin - I added various units etc in the TE I made and it CTD’s when I try and recon a Redfor AAA unit I placed near Rota airport.
Cheers, Mark
Mark,
You did not install the save0.cam file I put up for DL’d, correctly. If you had,than the EndGame movie would have gone away and missions would be generated As far as Recon is concerned…Gent’s be careful which Units you use in your TE’s.Try to use the STOCK KOREA BMS units, some of the other’s are porked. Can’t tell Ya’ what to do, but be aware.@ Dead Man, Thanks for the vid……I never seem to get enough time to fly around the whole Damn Theater!!! LOL…But it illustrates that time to fight\target is almost Instant Action Compared to other projects I’ve worked on in the past…BTW which PIT is that???
@Danguard, once the Scaled Tiles are done…we’ll go from there Thank you for considering the Developer’s POV as Reinhart stated.
@JanHas, Thank you for the Screenshot post…now give me that F18……LOL!!! Me thinks this theater with some of your outstanding work will be even better.
@Mower…NO…make 'em read how it go’s in the Falcon development world. ‘meh,you see!!!
Convenience, I agree with ya’…but…Naw…Now “Let me see that Thong,that Thong-a-thongthong,thong”…LOL!!tired demer

Hey Demer, i just backed up the old and copied in the new file…what can go wrong? Does anyone have any idea about the exploding issue? All the airbase tiles have plains on them, I saved the bin file and L2 file…and it worked when I first did it…what can have changed?
Finally, Re the TE;s do you mean choose korea from the drop down, not Redfor and Bluefor?Thanks!

Looks good but not yet ready for release. Some additional upgrades are to be made… -

I would say you’re welcome, but eh…someone edited my post to remove the video.
Edits to add:
Nevermind, I guess Youtube was being stupid.
Anyway, it looks like the default pit to me.

Hi my good friend Dave and thank you very much for your work in this great theater.
Well while i’m creating the NavAids for this beauty (Guam theater), i noticed that both ILS glide paths at RWY 07 and 25 of Andersen AFB have issue, means they don’t guide you at the TDZ but a lot after it. Just check the photos of RWY 07 ILS approach:
I’m gonna check also Guam Intl and Saipan Intl that have ILS and i will inform you.
See you mate.

Hi Guys
Andersen Airbase seems to be fixed right now;)
Before:
After:
That’s only for tiling, I don’t made fix for 3D objects (runway on the sea …)

Now that looks like what I see everyday! I think I can even see the building I’m staying in.

You see everyday? Can you take photos of buildings, hangars, ATC …? These pictures are very helpful for building objects 3D.

Wow Danguard, that’s damn nice!
Something else I’ve noticed is the runway headings are off in the others. For example, Saipan Intl has parallel runways and all 4 ends are “marked” wrong.
Quick question, is anyone else experiencing no sound (at least music) as well as not being able to set tower in the DTC? I don’t know if it’s something not completed yet or an issue on my end only–making bug reporting difficult.

I’m at Andersen AFB for a few more months. The only camera I have is my Samsung S III. I have some pictures of things, but mostly aircraft, runway and people. I’ll get some of the buildings and post them later.

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.
That is why we see a few different tiling perspectives at AAFB!!!But the ones in the Red box I am happy with, as they provide a good compromise.
But, if your having fun, so be it……:)
As far as that AB objective in Instant Action, we can just delete it in TacEdit.
Its left over from one of the many experiments.tired demer

Guam theatre airports info by SkyVector.
Currently, North Field (north end of Tinian) as well as Orote Field (west side of Guam on the peninsula) are closed airfields.

Cool page.

Hi my friend.
Well at this stage of Guam theater (Alpha version) there are no NavAids. That means there are no TACAN stations, no ATC frequencies, no ILS e.t.c.
This time i’m working to create them with data based to real world. So just give me a week (max. time) and the NavAids for this nice theater will be ready for use .

@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.

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?
