Operation Chastise development thread

Hey, I have a question for you...

Achim,

What would the area of Swinemünde, and specifically the area of the Kaiserfahrt, have looked like during WWII? There's a DamBusters mission depicting the sinking of the Deutschland / Lützow I've been toying around with, and was thinking about doing some GSL scenery.

Lee,

I thought about that, but figured since I was asking for information, I held my tongue and had a private chuckle. :p87:

And thanks for the info, it gives me a place to start!
 
RJ,

You have offered me assistance in the past in creating objects and tools I might need for missions or campaigns. I could use your expertise in developing a few things for CFS2 we currently lack for a freeware campaign I've been toying with off and on for about five years now.

I can tell you it involves the Union Jack. :unitedkingdom:
 
hmmmmmmmmmm..............

.........make one ponder where that name came from. Could it have been a brat w/sauerkraut and beer spa, with maybe a few pickled eggs thrown in?

Robert John,

Apparently, my e-mails have gotten bounced, so I've no choice but to spill the beans.

I am serious about pushing forward on Operation Chastise, and to this end, while I was cleaning up my files and doing the layout packages, I created or modified seven dams, (Canion's package gave me the inspiration, and a place to start with the Derwent and Mohne) which will be thoroughly evaluated by a friend whom I told to have a critical eye.

I modified the Derwent and the Mohne to fit Sander's ETO scenery base, and added the Eder, Sorpe, Lister, Diemel, and Ennepe. When the testing is complete, I will upload the GSL dam set.

However, to make this a reality, I will need to discuss some objects that will need to be made. Particularly a railway tunnel, a Roman aqueduct (either in whole form or sections) as well as other items.
 
James Elwood made a railway viaduct for CFS1, if that is of any use. It works with CFS2, but could do with a bit of a makeover.

Blood_Hawk23,

I know. I used the e-mail he provided me in a PM, and both with attachments and without it got bounced back. I tried it about eight times.

But thank you! :wavey:
 
Rami, chck your PMs.

I sent an email to him last night. He is taking classes and is very bust right now. So it could be a day or two before he gets back to you.
 
Life has been very busy,

Thanks to CFS2 my life has progressed to a level I would have never thought possible.

I will be taking a course on how to teach.

I will be continuing writing the magazine shortly.

I will make time for this project and use it as part of a portfolio I require for my future career.

Robert John,

Take it from a fellow educator. It is time consuming, exciting, exhausting, frustrating, full of hope, full of despair, maddening, and rewarding. Not for the faint of heart, but I have confidence in you. I use CFS2 when I teach, I'm sure you will find uses for it as well!

Blood_Hawk23,

I will respond to your questions later this evening.
 
I found one Aqueduct model that may work. It is very poly heavy. but here is a look.

I can't take any credit for it other then converting it. but its an option. maybe Robert or Allen could give it a poly makeover. Or atleast have a guide.
