Europe Theater Discussion

Sphynx u mean creating the cities from falcon engine or with a third party app?
Cause for the third party app yes u can give params and create a city in a snap… the thing is with textures mostly.
Wavedave said that UV maping will work as is so the textures is the problem…
Don’t know if Falcon can handle non square textures like bmp as was in the past. If it can then it’s even easier. Right now I’m in the middle of creating one but I have to use only dds square files so I must convert what I have and see how the app will behave… as in most the texture has a ratio as buildings floors (facades) and not square.can someone please tell us if non square other then dds format textures work in BMS? and which format? In the past bmp and pcx IIRC where used… but also IIRC they where also square.
If u want them untextured it’s easier u can have a city 3d model in minutes… the month will be needed to brake it down in segments so to handle it in 3ds cause else u will need a super ultra monster pc.

I’d take everything from korea and balkans place the major cities, drop down korean airbases at the right locations, give a **** on realistic rwy headings take the latest green tileset
build up depots, army stuff, heli bases, invite campaign freak builders for a tea and build the roadmap + add objectives (industry …).Get it done for TE flying first.
Campaign second.
Authentic RWY directions/channels third.
Authentic timed material (from molni’s 80 theater) fourth.
Looks fifth.But I’m lucky I don’t know how to do this stuff. Therefor sadly my opinion doesn’t carry any weight.
Having something to fire up and fly in it makes a difference in motivation. I think I read this before maybe even about europe, but I might be wrong.

^ This is essentially what I have repeatedly suggested. I seem to be in the minority, though.

since Lukas has the map ready then TE flying as Livrot states it will take about a year or two.
In the mean time ppl can work on the next step -s…
-
I have stated this before and will state again:
ANY theater in any FALCON Version, as it is now, that has an OBJECTIVE count > than 4000 to 5000 will fail in execution,I.E. with the .exe
It’s the list’s Gents, if they were loaded one time to memory and they never changed status then we could have a million.
That is not the case in Falcon, maybe Locked Up or FailedX Sim….not here.demer

We know you’re right both…
So there is nothing more to do, because PMC Europe theater is already available.
Also there is a (advanced ???) copy floating around.Cheers,

Yeah Dave,
with my latest terrain creating experiments I’ve used Sherloc’s advanced objective rules (5kb) for a EU 128 seg. theater,
and she failed to load all those objectives already in the UI, LOL.… what a shame, hahaha.
But I’m still in hope things will change in the next 3-4 … years.
Cheers,
LS -
Yes could make new tiles : D
-
Ok guys… this sounds like building on sand.
We will build this and we hope and wish that things change that will allow it to work.
And if things go farther?U will answer well that is why we ask for 3d models only…
The point is u ask from ppl to work on something with uncertain future…
Reminds me FO, thus having serious second thoughts about it and finally: bahhh let’s see what others will do and then I decide…
thus low participation and only anticipation.

You nailed it Arty.
We need success steps.
A line of success, achieving changes… -

LSWho knew???..…LOL!!!
I need a break ATM from Guam, so I will take the time to build another Europe Theater (sans PMC) for you and the community.
This new one will fly immediately in BMS, but will require enhancement as it will be “Bare bones”……
The only reason I am not going to release the private copy, is, well, it’s just PRIVATE for a certain VSquad…:mrgreen:
Please lemme know where you need the theater centered on (Lat\Long)Cheers,

Hmmm… Has anyone considered working with dev teams from other flight sims for airbases? Some chaps just put this one together for X-Plane:

Hello molnibalage
What is this book shows that these structures airbases?
Thank you.
-
It is a Hungarian book, it is called “Légierő Társbérletben”*. Are two volumes but for hangars as 3D modeling only these pages are relevant but as I can remember other airbase drawings are in the book. I will check and scan tham but hangar 3D modeling was the first request.
*It is hard to translate to me but it means “Air Force in cohabitation”. It refers that Soviet Air Force also used Hungarian airspace and the land of Hungary during the Cold War. The topic of book how the Soviets used their air force, their airbasese - non of Soviet unit had shared airbase with Hungarian unit - and accidentcs in Hungery. Soviet Air Force lost more than 180 airframes while they were stationed in Hungay between the '50s and 1990.

Very nice, but they could have mown the runway more often
-
Sadly (for you) it is Hungarian. I haven’t watch all video but in the first you can see an AU-16 hangar at the beginning. I will watch both video and I mark the most important things.

hmmm Complete real Berlin 3d model free to download and use:
http://www.businesslocationcenter.de/berlin3d-downloadportal/index.en.htmlGo get it guys.
U can brake it down to polygons so not to get the whole thing in one file.
Enjoy…
Here are the terms of use: http://www.businesslocationcenter.de/berlin3d-downloadportal/documents/terms.en.html
Edit: Oh just in case the whole airport is there also in all it’s majesty. Both of them.

LoL - Go get Berlin
:rofl:
very nice Arty
