Robert John,

I will try to incorporate this into "Battle for Europe" or another such campaign as soon as I can...I haven't been able to even open up CFS2 in more than 10 days.
 
Great looking work Robert!

I have a project in progress which will help defend your new structure(s). That is, if trying to reproduce some of the German's over engineered AA platforms doesn't drive me nuts first!!! LOL
Keep up the great work....:ernae:
 
It's looking great Robert John.

For a touch of added realism, Fort Boyard which is just to the south of La Rochelle can be found at AVSIM in the FS2002 scenery section. It's fully compatible with CFS2.
 
kdriver - can you post a link to that Fort Boyard scenery? I can find a FS2004 version over at AVSIM but not the FS2002.

Thanks
 
Hi Cody Coyote,​

I obtained the scenery from a link on Sander de Cocq's old website. I had a look at the original downloaded compressed file but it doesn't say which sim it's meant for. The author is Frédéric Picci. It could well be an FS2004 file. If you can't find it, I can email it to you.


There were a number of other links to historical buildings on Sander's old website. One other which pertains to submarine pens is Port Louis Citadel at the entrance to the harbour at Lorient. Further down the coast is Fort Louvois and near St Malo is the beautiful Mont St Michel.

Fort Boyard

Me too.

Dropped it in FS 9 for a quick fly by and found it to be well done. I hope that it can be converted to CFS 2 scenery. It might also make for a nice fort on our various CFS 2 rivers and harbors too.
 
View attachment 30692I am doing this model for the la Rochelle scenery It has low poly and texture detail, I think fps is better than too much eye candy
Yes that model can be converted but I do not think it will work to well in cfs2 as it is a high poly model. I will build my own lowpoly single texture sheet texture model. 1. 1024 x 1024 texture sheet is better for fps than 4. 512x512.
That model has 58 textures in it only 43 are usable in cfs2. If I make the model I will have damage textures.Thanking every one for their comments.

Hi Robert John,

I agree, eye candy is nice but not always efficient. Your models will add a lot to this area.
Awesome work!

RJ,

The road will be excluded!

Also forgive my ignorance but is the model you gave me placed in the sim? I cannot see it anywhere.


tobob
 
Hi Tobob
The Model is a gsl model, you have to add it with mission builder.
Just built la Lanterne,Chaine Tower,Saint-Nicolas la rochelle will be sending these soonView attachment 30745Hope the land class is compiling now.I use google earth to look at where the objects need placeing near enough.
Talk to you soon
Robert John
 
Thanks RJ

Looking really good!!!

You additions to the CFS2 world are and will be very welcomed.

I´ve dl FS2004 France scenery from AVSIM but couldn´t work with it yet. Your sub pens are great, and with Penwin32 flak cannons my dreams will become true!

Thanks again, Discus

PS: I don´t know a thing about Gmax but I know something about Autocad. Could this knowledge be of some help for you or others in any way?
 
Those pens look great Robert John, thank you for making them...and i am for adding as much detail eye candy or not as CFS2 can spare, most of us have newer computers now as long as the engine is not over heated.

KDriver did Frédéric Picci make all of those coastal sceneries including Mont St. Michel?
 
Hi Chris,

Olivier Bochu made Mont St Michel for FS2000. Frederic Picci made the other three for FS2004. They are at FlightSim.
