I love the texturing you did for the buildings, absolute top stuff.

So I still think that the ground textures ruin the whole thing.

so big cities and almost no FPS hit.

Ahhh! a dream come true.

Very nice. I'd also like to know more about that Spitfire skin... You holding out on us Canon? :lol:

[Kristorf]

Ohh yeahhh, bring it on

Thanks all

So I still think that the ground textures ruin the whole thing.

Well, sorry about that. It's so that the cities look good from altitude, and still work when you get down low and the 3D objects become visible. I think it's a good trade-off.


I'll be releasing the Spit skin soon too, once I've finished refurbishing my site.

The ground textures are fine.. we are meant to be enjoying maximum time actualy 'flying', not poodling around on the ground...

Lovely work once again Canon. :wink: I thought the skin was to be released with the map? :?

Ok, some pics. Auto-populated a quarter of London and took some pics. I need to add landmarks to this area (i.e. Docklands etc) but these pics nicely show the suburbs (and a little village). Hopefully they show the level of city density you can expect from the map, with effectively no drop in FPS. When I built these objects, I had poly count, texture size and texture sharing firmly in mind, so big cities and almost no FPS hit.

I'll post better pics when London is fully done.

Stop full image quotes. It is highly annoying and is very bad for the bandwidth of all involved..

AH! Wonderful images!!
This map is as good as the invention of sliced bread!! A Great Invention !

Keep up the fine work fellas, I applaude your art enthusiasticly!

Been working hard today on the Docklands area of London - a key target for the Luftwaffe so one I wanted to get right. I'm really pleased with the result, and still perfectly smooth over it.

Why do you enjoy building nice city, to bring a German bomber and destroy them? :twisted:

Nice done Joe
