World editing?

55 jimrooney  one year ago

It doesn't really seem like there's a way, but I figured I'd ask...

Any way to do any sort of world editing?
Ideally some terraforming, but even just building airports. IDK.

    @jimrooney I don't know too much about anything other than making a basic custom map and making basic custom parts that are just simple 3D models.

    Well sh*t.... I checked Steam and SimplePlanes is all on sale now. 50% off the VR version? Well, that's a no brainer, even if I own the other two versions. That's one issue solved ;)

    Well damn... As much as I hate having to buy "the white album again", if it gets me where I want to be then, so be it.

    I think I'll hold off on buying the PCVR version till I'm happy that I can build a world that fits my idea... cuz that'll be the sole reason for that version. I'm assuming I'll get there though as everything else in this game seems to follow my mentality. So long as it's not an uber-PITA, then we're good.

    How's the mission editing stuff?
    Like the tutorials with the flying through rings stuff is pretty on point.

    @jimrooney If you own SPVR on PC and the base game, you will find an button to enter VR in the menu in the base game. If you do this, then it's literally SP, mods and all, just with VR. If you don't own SPVR on steam, then you can't do this unfortunately.

    Oh, very cool. Thanks.
    You'd mentioned that you might be able to use VR through the base game (with PCVR)?
    Just not with the standalone Quest one right?

    That would still get me where I want to be.
    I'm keen to model my local area to fly around in VR.
    I wouldn't have to have it in standalone as long as I had a way.

    It's not possible in the base game, but you can do basically anything by modding the game. This is done in Unity, and there are many tutorials explaining different aspects of this. An example of a simple map mod is this one by me, but you can literally do anything.
