"Jungle" Style Small Bridge infrastructure Objects for CFS2 by UncleTgt
This is a collection of new small bridge objects I created using G-Max & Allen's Making Exploding Objects using FS2002 Tools & Tutorial. All of them are multi-LOD & include custom destroyed models.
I started by repainting some of the "standard" infrastructure objects to improve their appearance in the sim, often just by making them larger & improving the details on the texture. Then I moved on to create some new objects in G-Max where I thought there were still gaps to be filled.
Small wooden bridge - revised texture bitmaps with an improved alpha channel transparency.
Junglebridges A, B, C & Jungle Bridges X, Y & Z
===============================================
The design for these objects were inspired by some b & w photos in the Allied Force's Geographical Report on routes across Papua New Guinea, dating from October 1942.
Junglebridges A,B & C are road bridges, with A being similar in size to the stock small wooden bridge object. Bridge A is largely based on the road bridge at Wairopia. Bridge C is the smallest bridge I could make in this style that didn't just look silly, & could be usefully employed in those hilly areas where the Rhumba LOD 8 mesh makes placing longer river crossing impossible.
Junglebridges X, Y & Z are narrower foot bridges. Bridge Z is the largest, roughly as long as the stock small wooden bridge, with bridge X being the shortest, useful for depicting those mountain pass crossings.
To install, unzip the download to a temporary location & move/ copy files to the matching folder names inside your chosen CFS 2 install.
Thanks to: XavierB, Maskrider & Wolfi for leading the way with their infrastructure objects.
Allen for his Making Exploding Objects using FS2002 Tools & Tutorial.
Arno Gerretsen for ModelconverterX & FXeditor, such clever & versatile tools.
This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
