Rami's mission & scenery thread

Rami said:
Blood_Hawk23,

Actually, yes. I'm now up to page 324. One of the things that has been most helpful is it has given me insight into events after April 20th, known as the "Battle of Athens." Also, there are many Greek missions and Italian missions I was not aware of, and am thinking about possible doing the Italian side.

In addition, the Greek missions might have to be placed under the "British" flag, but they would offer combat with Mb-151s and PZL P-24s; aircraft that do not get a lot of play in CFS2.

I'll post a list of my mission log when finished.

Bill Dickens = Bismarck13, did an MB 151 (no cannons) which I am not sure was ever uploaded at least I don't see it now. This can be easily remedied.

Good evening,

Another GSL harbor in the works...this time at Thessaloniki, Greece. I tried to build a "cityscape" into this.

UPDATE: All I have do now is turn it into GSL...and done!
 
For a little bit site seeing - is there a way to add the Acropolis to CFS2?

Maybe an addon for Fs2000 or Fs2002?

Best wishes

Klausreiss,

I wouldn't bother with an FS2002 or 2004 add-on, honestly. It would be much more effective to have someone make it for CFS2, that way it could be multi-lod, and thereby FPS-friendly. Good idea, though! :salute:

Good evening,

For some of the bombing missions, the harbor of Khalkis was needed. It is about thirty-five miles north of Athens, Greece. Khalkis at the time was fairly big, but the port was small. Accordingly, I give the area a "town-ish" feel, and limited the size of the buildings.

Athens and Pirarus are the next targets for GSL work...that may take a couple of days!

Good evening,

I haven't even gotten to the "cityscape" yet...but this is what Piraeus/Athens harbor looks like, including adding trees to the islands. I have a feeling the object layout once this is all said and done is going to be upwards of 2,000 individual objects. This is by far my biggest one yet. :isadizzy:

Tobob,

I will look at this, and La Spezia, when I get home. I'm on the way into Boston for a medical appointment. Thanks for this, and your support!

Blood_Hawk23,

No. I'll be away on a mission trip with my church. (See the library notice thread) As far as GSL editing goes...having Martin Wright's GSL tool is a good start. The rest I will explain when I get home this evening.

Blood_Hawk23,

It would be easier to explain the GSL / Mission Builder process over Skype, that way, I can share my screen with you and explain it to you. :wiggle:
 
Question for Tobob...

Tobob,

Regarding La Spieza, am I missing some textures?

Tobob,

I also want to thank you for the Athens coastlines...but using them means I have to go back and make some minor to major adjustments, depending on the location of the piers in the original layout. Ah well, it gives me something to chew on! :wiggle:
