Hello,
I'm putting the idea out there for the map developers to include a blank map (free from objects less airfields) when uploading.
Like skinning of aircraft; having a skin with full insignia's and another with just numbering and then having a blank skin caters to all (the blanks are good for modders to add a particular number or marking to the aircraft).
Similar I love to make very detailed target areas for the IL2 online dog fighting community, the details start at the spawning airfields right through to the each and every target, however; on almost all maps there are buildings, camouflage nets, etc just placed here and there at the airfields, for me it's tainted and detracts from what I'm try to achieve.
May I request to the map developers when building airfields please leave them blank (with buildings, fuel tanks, camouflage nets etc) or include a blank copy for people like me to include objects
Trust me when I say I'm not trying to cause trouble or I don't appreciate what the map developer provide......I'm totally flawed by each and every map and I understand the long hours when modding (for some of you may know me from the SHIII community as a modder of that game).
Sorry for writing so much but I need to make this sound like a I wasn't demanding etc etc.
PS: I tried fiddling with the static file in some map but I only ended up doing more harm than good hence my pathetic knowledge base in map developing (lol).
Kind regards
Venatore.
