THE ITEMS!!!!!!!
The items the items the items…… the items the items the items the items the items the items the items…………………….
the static airplane @ wright is this one (first build i downloaded 9 year ago)
so i added a couple airfields to the stock map….. and a couple islands…….. get your contraption of choice to go see them…………….
there is more work to be done on my end (more islands and airports) and updates will come as i complete major areas, for now i hibernate once more..........
please do let me know if you find any issues with the mod, be it lag or a hecked up 3d mesh or texture
important to note whenever first spawning in at a custom location set on any one of these airfields will result in you submerged in them, though the location teleport works after initial startup, i recommend setting approach locations and spawning at those if youre too lazy to swap right after spawning in

WHY IS THE IMAGE SO LOW RES!?!?!?!?!
:D
Ooooh.
Mods.
(I'm on mobile)
@BaconEggs
Yeah ok, I actually have downloaded that, and know some things about Unity already. And yes, I am modelling my own assets. The airport is actually done, but its the touch up stage that is taking so long.
@windshifter1 i got my ground textures from a sample pack that included some terrain tools, also terrain stamps helped a ton making islands. i suggest searching for yt videos about terrain tools and stuff since theres multiple (terrain painter script, expanded stamp tools, etc). if youre making your own airport objects like buildings or markings i would find photo reference for how they look (i also used minecraft to prototype a few building designs). i also like to explore google maps for airport design ideas since there are a lot of interesting layouts that are pretty cool
@BaconEggs Ah, makes sense. Would you be willing to give a little advice on my airport mod? I always feel as if something is missing, no matter what I do.
Also, I can never get the right ground textures. Any recommendations? Maybe I can share with you what I have right now and see how you like it.
@NalanjiWaffles sweet
@BaconEggs Thanks :D it works!
@BaconEggs Thanks :D it works!
@NalanjiWaffles bruh well heres a drive link to the file if that works
@BaconEggs no?
@NalanjiWaffles do you see the map
can i ask, where is luma atoll?
@windshifter1 oh lol it was just him telling me what details to do on a hangar like the trim / corrugation / door styling, there isnt any actual written thing that says what it should look like
@BaconEggs Amazing update! Can I ask, what is that airport object bible you said in the description? I'm modding an airport as well
love the author name btw
@BaconEggs thank you
