Koenigsberg Cathedral and Castle - Uzin - 30.06.2010
Can anybody help me to find the object similar to Koenigsberg Cathedral and Castle, see here:
http://www.russia-ukraine-travel.com/ka ... hotos.html
http://www.google.cz/images?q=Koenigsbe ... CCAQsAQwAA
I do not dare to hope anybody will create the similar object for Il2.
EDIT:
Now I have found 3D model of the Cathedral, but still do not know how to transform it into Il2.
Here is the link:

This cathedral is very badly made, it has far too many polygons & would need quite a bit of work to sort it out.

Thank you for your post. Just a question : is it possible to import object drawn in Google SketchUp into Il2 in principle, pls?
Sketchup to IL-2 - kevinp - 30.06.2010
Yes it can be done, but only with Sketchup Professional, not with the free version. Don't ask me how to do it because I have no idea.
To view your cathedral I downloaded the COLLADA file from the site you provided. Then I went through a complicated series of conversions to to change it into a .3ds file which I Imported into Gmax.
If you want the .3ds or Gmax file I can send either of them to you.
The cathedral appears to be the correct size for use in IL-2. Read my tutorial called "Airfield plates for beginners" to get the basic idea of importing objects into IL-2.

Now I have the Koenigsberg map populated with more than 470 bridges, above 26 airfields and am finishing the railway stations with some std german buildings. Then I shall try to build ports, and then, I shall try to learn how to import the Cathedral.

Nice. A Koenigsberg map in the works? Very cool. I always wondered why that city was left out of the Kurland map. Perhaps now we will be able to re-create that great struggle for that city.

You can see the progression of this map on Aviaskins.com.
Mixx is working on a new map also; his version of Khalkhyn Gol, Mongolia. Looks very promising!
Re: Koenigsberg Cathedral and Castle - CzechTexan - 05.07.2010
I'll check it out Lejo. The stock KhalkinGol map airfields seemed a little strange with their green grass runways plastered on to dry brown land. I guess that was a limitation at the time of making that map. Good to see improvements being made.

Re: Koenigsberg Cathedral and Castle - CzechTexan - 06.07.2010
Yes, that made things much easier to read. That new Khalkin Gol map looks really nice with new textures...and even has new objects. They are really doing a fine job with it. It will surely be a must-have to replace the older outdated one.
