ETUO RAF Gutersloh_X with HARRIER HIDES_X - WIP

Looks really superb! I'm eagerly awaiting the release!

Just my opinion on the cracked runway texture. Quite sure you would not find a cracked runway on an important frontline base (if you are modelling the base as when it was active). The FOD danger is just to big and in my experience runways with the slightest sign of cracking are resurfaced. Just my opinion :)
 
Thank you all for your kind answers. Yes, Jens Ole. You are very right. These textures are just WIP and of course, regarding FOD, there could be some bad accidents at Gutersloh! These cracks aren't quite real so far, I will do some work on it :running:
 
It's finished? :wavey:

Haha, that's a great suggestion :applause:
No, seriously: It will take a lot of time to get everything nicely to work. Most ambitious projects are done by pupils or tretirees with more time. But currently I am shift working, so there is a small timeframe to realize all my ideas for this scenery.
Indeed there are many objects and models been carried over from the RAF Gutersloh FS2004 version, but also a lot of new parts to rework (all trees, ground polygons) and I have to learn(ed) a lot about tweaking behaviour in FSX. This will take some time.
 
Thanks for the update Manfred, as on the new ACG forum nothing is mentioned about Gutersloh X, has something changed?

Cheers,
Hank
 
Hank, the ACG forum had to be rebuild after having some issues. Currently the admins do a great job to reconstruct the site and I am positive about everything will be fine shortly...
 
That's a shame but I understand the decision. We're in a similar position at CBFS and I often wonder why we continue.

After a final take-off attempt, all members got the sad news today. At this place, I want to thank Birdman and Stevo for their yearslong effort and resusctitation attempts with ATC. But I am sure they don't will stop their ambitous work, keep an eye on other sites for possible released sceneries or aircraft in future.
 
Okay, guys, today I want to show you the progress regarding the ground polygons. As is well known, I (want) (have to) replace the photo ground because of current existing regulations in Germany.
First of all, here are some shots that show the appearance and behaviour of the different grass polygon layers. Now you get a better and more blurred surface from higher distance but at the same time a more real surface on the ground.





 
I looks great, I can only wish the grass in my garden will look like this once......

Cheers,

Needs to be thinking about an era without HAS, mate?!? You talk about the era of the mid 60s to the mid 70s probably. There also were several buildings still not built so far.... But you are right, the aerosoft bird fits pretty much in there :running: ....
 
Still working on concrete, asphalt and apron textures now. Try to use many various types, but we'll see what will happen to the frames impact...
