Island_Builder
Island Builder
In game map maker.
Press T to show/hide the main button.
This is a Map! Not a Plugin.
The mod is 428mb.
All of the map data is saved as textures into folders in the "IsladData" folder, which is in the SimplePlanes folder. They can be shared by simply giving the folder full of textures.
There are a lot of things going on here, play around with it, you will figure it out.
Idk why I put the rest of this in reversed order.. XD
The save/load menu has a few things that may need explained...
Type your map name into the Map Name slot, and save it. The name that is saved there is the map that will load on start.
It works the same for loading... Type in the name and hit load, once it is loaded, press save to save it as the loaded map.
You can import a splat texture to the paint layers that will be applied to the entire map, put the texture in the IsladData folder. There is a slider that sets how strong that texture is applied, you can actually set it negative, and subtract a texture...
You can also export the splat texture.
You can also import, and export heightmaps.
The Trees Menu has Pine Trees, and some gameobjects like runways, hangars, houses...
They are saved immediately upon placing.
Rotation is an issue, so each object is there 4 times, set to 0, 90, 180, and 270 degrees, in that order, I did not include different pictures for the different angles to keep the file size down.
Setting everything perfectly is not easy, I suggest opening the texture in an editing app like photoshop, and adjusting/removing things there.
The Holes menu has all the tools to cut holes in your map. There is a skirt cutoff slider, and buttons, it will make all the terrain below the slider level go away, so that your island blends into the water. It will take some experimenting to get the level correct.
Position Scale menu adjusts the maps position, and scale obviously. Set the power slider to some amount, and push the buttons.
The Painting Memu is straight forward, press the paint button to paint. There are a few options here, RGBA, HSV, B/W color modes. You can use the color picker, adjust the sliders, or enter the hex code. The Show Cube button will make a cube appear that displays the currently selected color.
The Texture menu.
There are 17 built in textures, you select which layer with the Splat Layer button. There is an overall adjust slider and button which will change the strength of everything on that layer. The rest should be self explanatory.
The Edit Terrain menu is where you adjust the terrain height, there are a few options, like Smooth, and level height, you will see how they work! You can save just the heighmap from this menu, but I recommend getting used to saving your map from the save/load menu.
This is still a Work In Progress, I need some feedback, so I am releasing it early.
Feel free to ask questions, I'm sure there is a lot that I forgot to mention.
The map does not load super fast, there is a lot of data to read, be patient.
this mod is so good
Me to :(
Can't download it :(
How could i make an runway here? or i just cant
Is the island size restricted?, can you export the file and make that particular map a mod?
I want this mod but it's 10:21 and I'm commenting on my phone and I don't have Simpleplanes on mobile and my laptop fans will wake up my strict parents
@Planeerf3 👀
@QOUEIUUR That's not me
@RTX4090 There are NO MODS for mobile.
Bro i need your track mod
Fuck the guys who make mods don't think about those who play on mobile
@Gestour when will you add CCTV mod again?
@gameboyadvanced74 thx. I will thank you if you follow me.
@gameboyadvanced74 I know it. Someone told me last year when I still had silver or bronze.
I wish there was like a mobile version

@TheDesignate why ask?
why dropbox
@Gestour yeah
can we talk in discord dm? I don't want to fill up the comment section.
@Nanta02 The menu opens?
@Gestour I don’t know why It doesn’t work for me when I want to edit terrain the game loads like it’s working but nothing happens I tried it so many time restart and even reinstall the mod
Please tell me;-; I really want to make a good rally map for everyone;-;
(It only worked the first time tho)
@Nanta02 Sorry about that, the camera moves. When I try to freeze the cameras rotation, it breaks, so I just didn't.
I suggest flying over the area, pausing the game, and then just do 1 quick mouse click at a time.
@Gestour How can I brush things with out moving the camera
im gonna make a rally track out of this
