Update and a question

Hello everyone

I've been out of the loop lately, but I have been busy. Just wanted to update everyone on the Battle of Britain Mission Set. Basically the set starts on July 10, 1940 and goes until October 10, 1940. Both RAF and Luftwaffe forces are featured. With missions including Eagle Day, the Big Wing (That's a pretty impressive sight to see in CFS3) and of course the Blitz is playable from both the RAF and Luftwaffe perspective. I am trying to figure out a way to have famous aces like Alan Deere or Douglas Bader to spawn in select missions. I'm also working on a custom weather set for these missions too. There's going to be lots of goodies for everyone! Also, anyone know if there's any good tracer effects for flak and anyone know where I can get Wolfie's Flak Sounds and Air Raid siren sounds too? There's so much more I'd love to include with these mission

Now, for my question. I've got JonnoUK's HD ground scenery and I do like how much better it makes everything look. But, there is something that I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix. Whenever I look at the Portsmouth docks, the buildings that are supposed to be on land are in the water and not attached to the docks. I've attached a photo to show everyone what I mean.


Thanks a lot guys!

Chris

Also, I'm going to leave a hint about my next series of missions: There will be bad weather
 
Well there has been a lot of rain in the UK over the last year!:cool: Good to see you back. Hopefully Clive may help you with the docks.
 
Thanks everyone! I'm hoping to get a video together sometime in the next few days featuring these missions. Just as a heads up, there are many downloads required. Probably most early war RAF and Luftwaffe aircraft available. Also, does anyone have improved flak sounds and an air raid siren sound they can send me? The stock ones sound more like a poof of air, more than anything. Anyone else have anything they'd like to see in the final product? If so, please send me a message! I'll do my best to try and include it. But, due to limitations within the game engine, it may be hard. I'm already maxing it out as it is! I'm hoping to release them on the 10th of August.


I'm going to leave you all with one more hint on my next series of missions: There will be lots of flak
 
The flak sounds? The default CFS3 sounds. Clive's are fantastic! I'll make sure to bring them over when I get a chance.
 
Oh yeah. You'll need pretty much every ship and airplane in the BoB add on. I'm trying to work out a way to make it compatible with Clive's work, but what I might have to do is manually edit the files
