My main problems with this map lie in the fact that I haven't been able to find ANY suitable photos of airfields or towns in Thailand or Indo-China or burma for the WW2 period....
my airstrips are merely useable and do not represent any realistic strips in this theatre .... unlike the wealth of information available to those building maps of the ETO
We have very limited buildings available to populate the map, a few of the Japanese and Pacific ones are all.....
I refuse to bow to the requirements of the il2 game engine and have all my rivers and lakes at sea level...therefore I cannot place the proper bridges upon the landscape and have to construct my own........ fortunately trains and vehicles will run across the water as if it didn't exist, so a simple runway taxi plate can be laid upon the water to simulate a bridge and it will not impede vehicles or trains
I have not been able to get autopop to work for me ...because I cannot get the actors tools to work....therefore all buildings must be placed by hand or as groups...copied and pasted
an example of the bridgework...
I made the Royal Palace and Wat Po in Bangkok...
the two houses I re-skinned...
