Well...since I am working at 3:4 scale....yesterday I remade the complete map to include all of Thailand + bits of Laos/vietnam/Cambodia to the east as with the first map + a littlebit more of Burma to the west....enough to get Rangoon in....
Might as well work on just the single map 8)
I tried drawing in some of the main rivers...especially the River Mekong.....looks nice as it winds through the mountains...but in a few places it follows the wrong route and climbs over :roll:
I wish we could edit the rivers whilst in 3D view
There are no trees upon my map yet...I am using jungle textures and it looks quite good
I would like to get a lot of the random trees showing...but nothing seems to work
I don't know how to cover the landscape in the 'woods'....I'm certainly not going to do it all in the FMB...maybe just around bases
I have now made about four different maps....thailand 1:2; thailand 3:4; Burma/Thailand 3:4; and this one....and every single one is the same.... all inland lakes are below level....and all islands and sea coasts are slightly above the sea at the edges....of course you don't see it from flying above....but it is annoying....and there is no surf on my shore...probably because of it
yesterday I had an Emily take-off, on AI whilst I watched, from the Tonle Sap lake in Cambodia....and the wake showed it was above the water level as it took-off :roll:
