Tokyo 1945 City Scenery Anywhere?

Looks a little spooky. It is a good representation of the aftermath from the fire bombings Tokyo experienced. Great job Devildog73.

Yes, when flying over Japanese airbases enroute to Tokyo, one sees buildings, aircraft and vehicles.
When approaching Tokyo from afar, one sees a few buildings popping up and as one gets closer and the textures begin to show, and the spacing is so far apart, it does become a bit spooky.
When the missions are finished the player will be flying in at 500 feet altitude. THAT is when it really gets the reality of what it looked like to Allied pilots flying over.
No AA fire coming up from the main Japanese city after encountering it over outlying airfields.
I'm currently working in MB to build up the areas surrounding the burned part of the city with normal buildings.
Once done, I will send them to Rami and/or KDriver to convert to GSL scenery so frame rates don't suffer. (I'm still learning and not there yet).
