Solomons Scenery Expansion Pt1 for CFS2 by UncleTgt
Updated 28-DEC-23 to correct the 44late gsl issue identified by Browncoat.
This is an expansion to my previously released Solomon Islands scenery. It adds the islands to the East & South of the Solomons chain. Areas covered include:
Rennell Island (SW of Guadacanal)
Indispensible Reef (further S from Rennell)
Stewart Isles (East of Malaita)
Malaita (new LWM polys & shorelines, but no rivers drawn)
Uluwa (small island SE of Malaita)
San Cristobal (SE of Guadacanal)
and all the islands of the Santa Cruz chain, plus all of the New Hebrides, including Espiritu Santo & Efate islands.
Contents:
New Ground2K scenery for each, including fringing reefs.
New airbase scenery, made using FSSC.
New gsl infrastructure.
New custom Landclass & Waterclass.
Some simple missions using the stock F4U-1A Corsair for viewing the gsl airbases & scenery

Thanks to:
Jean Bomber for his inspiration, advice & support. He talked me through getting to grips with G2K & more…
Maskrider for all his airbase packages & the blended airbase tutorial. This set the standard for airbase sceneries for the game.
Rhumbaflappy for the new more accurate world mesh – it was a desire to make best use of this development that is the driver for many of my scenery projects. He also developed the vtp1 fixer programme to fix display errors in vtp bgls compiled from Ground2K.
GavinC for his reworking of the stock airbases, making individual base reworking/ revision much easier
Shessi for his water textures, that were the inspiration for my reworking of Jimkos Pacific Blues, & indirectly lead me to develop this latest set of water textures.
Lindsay Watt for all of his scenery objects & innovations.
Wolfi for his scenery objects.
Xavier for all his scenery objects & airbase sceneries, opening up a larger world for us all to fly in
Martin Wright for all the various software tools that are so useful!
Russell Dirks for his EZ landclass programme, making large scale land/ water class adjustments possible
Christian Fumey for his excl8 & Ground2K programmes, making the creation of completely new scenery possible for CFS2.
