New Texture Balkans
-
Hey Rudy, I have installed the theater and the new folders from your mod, ( after carefully backing up the originals…!!) and can see the new terrain tiles etc as here:
I have tried a few different areas, but could find anywhere that looked like the preview screens shown earlier in this thread, am I missing something or have I installed wrong? There does not seem to be any photoreal tiles? Really like the new field tiles BTW, there seems to be much less obvious repetition in the patterns. Great work !
Cheers, Mark

I have the same question like markturner about the photo real textures.

I have the same question, i have test flown but was not able to see any of those nice terrain textures as in the posted pictures. I’ve copied the folders (terrain, texture) to the balkans folder after backing up the original folders. Secondly, i see a lot of texture shimmering in the distance, donno if this was before too, because never really started yet in balkans.
*i use the balkans install and with the HOT FIX1 for Balkans BMS converted v1.0. I do not have the other fixes installed.
Thanks for your help and directions!

ok Dema, what have we done wrong? I have:
Installed the latest version of BMS balkans.
Installed the hotfix
Unzipped the terrain mod.
Saved a copy of the original folders ( Terrain & Texture) in Falcon BMS 4.32/Data/Add-on Balkans/Terrdata
Copied in the folders terrain and texture that were in the mod download folder to the above directoryStarted the sim in Balkans
So where is the mistake please?
Cheers, Mark

I just renamed my
texture folder
terrain folderin texture2, terrain2
then I copied the new 2 folders inside Terrdata.
new terrain folder > 121 MB (127.891.871 byte)
new texture folder > 333 MB (349.627.278 byte)I hope you did not overwrite the files.
After this, as you know Italy has different scenarios around, and all Balkans too. Just find the right places where to see somenthing the nature gave to us.
Example:
Mountains north Aviano
Lake in Kukes area, Podgorica, Tivat.New sea and water colors in the costs are present around the cost in Italy.
I flown just 2 times till now and just in Italy on east cost.Do me a favour please, try to land in Aviano and tell me if you explode, thanks in advance.

ok dema …… link for Fix http://www.adrive.com/public/EdMp5U/Fix aviano e brindisi.rar
replace tile end texture.bin -
Well, I have the files the correct size in the folder as described in my original post, and did not overwrite the originals……but see nothing like your shots, just how I see in the screenshot.
Are the photoreal tiles everywhere, or just in specific limited locations?

For now only in specific places … it takes off from capodichino … and watch;)
Soon everything will be covered in photorealistico … we need people for flight tests etc etc. … recruitment open. -
Count me in if you wish. First I need to reinstall Balkans lol.

Hi Rudy, happy to help, I am already keen to learn how to work on Falcon terrain and textures, and had experience of making photoscenery for FSX, so anything I can do to help, I would be very pleased. Just let me know. i did also have a copy of global mapper, but I have not used for about 2 years……
So, you think my install is ok, but I just have not been anywhere where the new textures are then? can you post a screeny of the areas where there are tiles ( use the instant action GUI screen, where you move the area of your intended flight)or maybe a basic map showing the areas?

did you replace the new .bin too?

OK, I found an area where there is some of the new tiles, and it looks great. So I think my install is correct. Although I flew around Kukes in Albania as Dema suggested and could not see anything there……North of Aviano, yes. I guess I was expecting it to all be like that…Approx what percentage of the land is photoreal tiles ?
One suggestion for improvement? ( I know this is a beta) The forest textures need more variety, to avoid an effect of blanket green coverage. I am wondering where and how I can find out how Falcon generates and places tiles, and what the options are there.
The field textures look great as well, its much less easy to repetition now, but again, could do with some more variety, again to avoid the blanket effect. I really like the way the photoreal towns blend with he textures at the edges, that looks very well done.
What you especially notice, in the photoreal areas, is what an effect of added depth and terrain elevation the tiles give - I know its just a picture of jagged rocks and outcrops etc, but it really makes the previously very flat and smooth terrain look more 3 dimensional. Great improvement.

I fixed the shimmering, not so difficult this time as the original terrain, I know it’s just question of time… waiting for the official !
Time to fly and see what the nature gave to us
