new scenery

Greetings all, I must say, I am quite flattered by the response to the scenery... I do appreciate you all downloading it, and I hope you all enjoy it. Austin, (salt_air) is the brainchild behind the scenery. He lives close by and felt we should do some justice to it. He did the ground work and runnin' to get the images for the photoreal textures. The folks at the museum there were more than gracious to let us take ppictures and do their scnenery in fs2004, so, we should thank them as well....

As for the scenery getting into fsx, its coming.... there are some snaggs to work out, mainly the action of getting the runway edge buttons into fsx without using a high polygon count to achive this... im working on this... the trees are the other thing, and i think it will come into fsx without alot of the autogen rebuild etc, so the main snag is the buttons...

Terry gave me a fix to get the afcad to accept ai, i didnt put one in because the default afcad made polys out of grass that were unsightly, but he had a fix, so that is addressed, but the main thing i see is folks want to see it for fsx, so its comin'

again, i do appreciate you alls downloading it, i am suprised at the response to it, and am glad people are enjoying it.

as for salt_air saying my other scenery is top_notch and you all should download it, he exaggerates.... it sux.... KGFL, btw, IS in rework in gmax (because it desperately needs it) to hopefully come up with something that is respectable.... that is coming and should be usefull for fs9 and fsx.... (5B2 after that)

Like salt_air also said, they are making constant builds to the airport at 42VA, so we will be making updates accdordingly to keep up with the additions... you all should see what they are planning to do to this field... we hope to keep the updates respectively...

Thanks again for all the wonderfull things you all said about this scenery, i do appreciate you all downlading it, and hope you enjoy it.... you all are making my head big, i just hope it has an equal effect on making my stomach and *ss smaller (grin)

Take Care, and Happy flying....
 
It's a super place gang. The Fighter Factory now operates out of that airfield. Their shops are still at Suffolk Municipal, but the completed hardware are at VB. Super job. A must have.

I tried it in FSX, all was great but the trees, had to remove it. I have a personal friend that works for The Fighter Factory, I have to drop in every time I go to VB.

ok, thats it.... i got the next two days off... gunna try to work with salt_air on a version for fsx :)

it seems there is a demand for it to 'fly' in x....

my computer isnt fast enough to enjoy fsx, so i have it but barely use it and i am not familiar enough with fsx to use it much at all... the fps just are terrible and to get them respectable i have to make everything look terrible....

so... my plan is to make a fsx version, the only thing going to suffer is the trees, the tree lines may not look the same... most other 'bad' showing objects 'should' have a working counterpart for fsx, its the 'rotate to user' function that doesnt work in fsx, so, ill find a way around it...

so, ill get something working so the folks with fsx can enjoy it. Im suprised at its response, so lemme get soemthing jammin for you fsx folks :)

:running:
 
Looks fun Terry :)

Well, all, scratch the fsx version.... i am going to make the scenery minus all that doesnt work in fsx... appologies, but i spent the entire afternoon finding out that ms as usual, punched developers in the face once more and changed everything...

i have run into roadblock after roadblock trying to figure out how to do this, and short of completely redoing it over again, i am finding out that adjusting this for fsx is a daunting task....

so, i am deleting all that doesnt show propperly in fsx, whixh is all trees and bushes and some of the bushes were done in gmax, and they STILL dont show propperly, so... im delelting all that doesnt show propperly and making a version with objects only...

appologies, but its too muh work to make a version for fsx that doesnt look like crap... and i have my doubts that even the objects arent going to x-fer without problems....

ill let you fellas know if there is something worth downloading for ya :)
 
Well, I appologize.... No fsx version.... nothing looks good at all... everything needs a complete remake for fsx.... and since i cant get fsx to work well at all on my computer, i have to backdoor it to get sp2 to even run, i cant do it...

Im sorry, thanks for those that downloaded it for fs9, appologies for those that fly fsx. It must be redone from the ground up to look good in fsx.

Im sorry....
