NTL_Darwin WIP

Ok,

This is the thread where I'll put WIP pics of the map I'm currently working on. Basically it's an approx. 120km x 120km map of the top end, built specifically for intercept/scramble type missions against the attacking Japanese.

"To Do" list
Sattler Airstrip
Complete plotting Sturt Hwy & railway
more custom textures
Custom objects
Better ingame map
more to come..

Cheers, Neil Smile


Some pics for now:

Some are standard textures that have had their hues adjusted and saved/named as new texs. I'll be creating more new custom tex for new/cloned objects and terrain as the need arises.

Your idea to use the height map to distribute terrain types is a great idea, totally transformed the map, Thanx M8 8)

No problem, anything that makes the task easier is my motto Smile

Wow! That's incredible dude!

I have this book:

Which has some nice images of the various strips used - I can give you some scans if needed Wink

I have one question for you - is there enough room at the top of the map for the Japanese raiders to start from, and for the Commonwealth aircraft to be able to intercept them over Darwin?

Any pics of the area will be tremendous help, thanx for your offer. Smile

Not really, but there's enough distance to bung a carrier far enough away that it doesn't pound Darwin into the next millenium for the opposing flights to land on. (funny watching tha AI try to put Betty's on deck)
Will put a Sea plane Icon out there too.

For now this is primarily a trial for proof of concept for the much bigger map that I plan to create.

Cheers, Neil Smile
