Stef,

You did. I have the Dover port as well. By the way, I do not have that problem with the Hawkinge / Dover overlap. On my sim, they are on separate gobs.

Dover is 2b400e
Hawkinge is 2b600e

And for right now, I am just dealing with the BoB bases. Please don't tempt me with other work, I need to remain focused. :biggrin-new:
 
Well, I'll be....

Well, another proof computer science is the most approximate science of them all!

They are on separate gobs in mine as well, yet if I install Dover first, Hawkinge CH and CHL post objects disappears. If I install Hawkinge first, Dover goes on vacation!

Go figure!
Stef :ernaehrung004:

BTW: I never explained you why I went in editing your ports as well, I owe you an explanation. Please forgiver me, looks have nothing to do with it, you do a very nice job at building ports and industrial areas. I only like to see trees there too, and I noticed some bigger industrial scenery objects, from Wolfi's libs, affect framerate more negatively than the combination of Canion's objects I replaced them with.
I'm always looking for better fps performance!

Stef,

I am not offended in the slightest. I've become very fond of your mods to my scenery, and I am not proprietary. :very_drunk:

This bridge was mis-located to the west in the original London scenery. The Sheppey bridge is now fixed.

FYI...I find that tilting the angle of a bridge intersection for Wolfi's bridges more than eight or nine degrees relative to one another makes it look comical. I used shorter lengths to complete the turn onto the island.

Stefano,

Has this happened to you? The same bridge gets split into two separate gobs...that can be maddening to make them fit right. :banghead:

Hey guys,

Here is some of Stefano's eye candy from Britain. I fixed the problem northwest of Warmwell by having the northeastern bridge lead into a road, and having the eastern bridge as a separate entity.

He even includes railroad crossings and security gates! :very_drunk:

Stefano,

Here is my collection of all of your scenery mods that I incorporated into my GSL file. It's basically a collection of your greatest hits, including the mods you see in this thread. The next stop, beginning tomorrow, is to fix up London itself. All of the other work is done.

Greg,

Not yet, but that conversation is coming quickly. Most of what you are seeing is my effort to "clear the deck" to get back to that project. I don't want anything else in the way.

Good evening,

I am working my way through the London gob files...most of the West End and North End is now done...and I am working my way toward the Estuary, slowly but surely. All of the misplaced bridges to this point have been fixed.

Doing the dockyards right this time is going to be a real b*tch.
 
For Shessi...

Mark,

As a way of saying thank you for all of the neat new aircraft you have done for CFS2 recently, I completed my work on the Tilbury docks this morning, combining it with the gob for Hornchurch. The gobs over London are quite tight, so it took some work to get them all in one gob file. I am now working my way up toward the main docks near the Isle of Dogs, but wanted to show you this progress.

I will upload some more screenshots this evening.

If my memory isn't playing tricks on me, didn't you say that you worked there for a time when you were younger?
 
Well that's very kind Andrew..:icon_redface:, a great memory, thank you.

I'm sure there are many others who will enjoy B of B dogfights over the docks and the Thames, from either side, and flying from Hornchurch, look forward to the scenery.

A favour in return, for the cfs2 loyal....and especially for our US contingency...(a bit too much back-slapping going on here!..:barf: ha!).

Something never seen on the Thames....a PBY-2 (just sorting out the panel at the moment).

Cheers

Shessi

Good evening,

Mark, as promised, here is some eye candy. :very_drunk:

There might need to be a flatten for it, but that's no big deal.

Good morning,

I'm getting closer to the completion of the second-to-last gob; the Royal Albert Dock. I am now working on the Queen Victoria Dock.

Good evening,

Here is the second-to-last London gob....The Royal Albert and Victoria Docks. The first is a wide shot.

Good evening,

Here are the other shots, including a couple of small anchorages along the Thames. Unfortunately, there is a minor flaw in the landclass and street layout which puts an unseemly road in the harbor area, bit I tried to cover it as best I could. :very_drunk:
 
Rami,

I am grateful beyond words for this accurate and historic work you are doing, London was the prime port of the entire British empire and the docks were the heart of the port and the entire economic infrastructure that fed the products of the UK to the Empire and from the colonies and commonwealth countries back to the Heartland. It was in essence the Heart of London. Rarely visited by those who were not seamen or dock workers but still essential. I am so glad to see it all happening so nicely and so well done.

Good afternoon,

I just wanted to pass along that Greater London is now completed. The city (at least where I chose to work) had a total of fifteen gobs, and the total tally, including the airfields of Gravesend, Hornchurch, Croydon, Kenley, and Biggin Hill is 8,934 objects. However, it is really only dense briefly around the docks, so major frame rate issues should not be a problem.

Hello again,

Here is the combined layout and mission file. :applause:

The mission file size is 1.29mb. :jawdrop:
