Hey All,

I'm looking at my scenery and I'm wondering what people are using for WWI as of now.

I have all of the textures by STIZ. I also have Aerocrates scenery. I have my own setup for WWI. But what is everyone else using?

Does anyone use Rhumbaflappy’s mesh?

Would a setup like Rami uses for europe work?

I'm just curious as to what is used. I'm getting closer to finishing my scenery. If anyone use Rhumba's mesh let me know. I'll make my scenery for that as well.
 
Blood_Hawk23 ,

Would love to have WWI scenery to use with Rhumbaflappy's mesh. I have 2 WWI installs. One using Rumbaflappy's mesh and Rami's Guide. Looking for scenery to use with that one. At present it is hit or miss as to what fits along rivers and coasts.

I'm going to make a second WWI install. I'll use the mesh and textures. I may have to remake the grass fields to match but thats ok.

So in this I'll have my trees and tents. I'm using mostly stock buildings and the objects for Aerocrates. Plus some of RJs amoung others. I'm thinking of using some other objects but I don't want to go too crazy.

Voyager,

Would you be interested in some bata testing once its finished?
 
Hi John,

I'm using exactly the same setup as my WW2 ETO install as far as terrain goes - Rhumba's watermasks and mesh, and SdC's EurW package.

I'm using both Aerocrate's and your WW1 scenery. Where there are two different textures with the same name from different packages, I use the one which I think looks the most realistic for that part of the world.

I also use machine gun and engine sounds from CFS3 Over Flanders Fields. (CFS3 OFF looks great by the way, but I can't get it to work since I changed to Win7).

Everything looks and works fine in CFS2.

so my aerodromes sit at the same height? Would you mind if I sent you my more recent ones. If no changes are needed then I won't have to do a second set.

can you post a screen shot for me. I'd like to see how they look so far on your setup.
 
Blood_Hawk23,

I'll check my install also when I get home this evening and let you know if anything is odd. Any bases in particular?

send me a pm with your email and I'll send the new set. It should overwrite the old set without any problem. though you'll have to swap out the GSL and add a few objects.

They looked fine last time I used them - I haven't had a chance to do any WW1 flying lately. Please send me the new ones and I'll go through them individually and post some screenshots.
 
so it seems that at least 4 are straddeling rivers.

Bergues-Bierne straddles river
Bray-Dunes straddles river
Calais Aerodrome straddles river
Furnes Aerodrome straddles river

I'll look at my Scenery and see how I can fix that. I may have to move some a little.

I'm going to have to remake it all. there are roads and rivers going all through it.

It's not too bad John - apart from the ones you mentioned straddling rivers, Gistel and Les Moeres straddle roads. The rest of the Belgian ones look good. None of airfields are sitting on plateaux or in depressions.

I substituted 006B2Su1.bmp for your Airfield1.bmp. What do you think?

That texture looks good.

I'm not happy with most of Flanders. I'm going to remake all of Aerocrates as well. they are out of place in some areas. Before I do I have to finish what I have.
