    Ventnor radar station on the Isle of Wight " ADJUSTED"

    Hi
    Here is the Ventnor radar station on the Isle of Wight.


    http://www.subbrit.org.uk/sb-sites/s...or/index.shtml


    As you can see from the screenshots I have moved the Radar station to the top of the hill.
    My only concern is adjusting the missions that Rami made to still work.
    I have also increased the height of the Radar towers by a factor of two.
    I will supply the the scasm code in the next release of the CFS2 magazine and the magazine will be dealing with gsl files.

    Good work Robert John, but I hate to tell your work has already been done by William Renwick in his Chainhome package. His radar towers are more realistic and they are better placed, although they are still not quite at the top of the hill.

    In my screenshot you can see both Gary Burns and William Renwick's depictions of Ventnor.

    kdriver ,

    I will take a look at William Renwick's depictions of Ventnor. Can you give me a link to them. What I am trying to do is make a tutorial on adjusting Gary Burns Ventnor radar station so its compatable with the new mesh and adjust the objects in Ramis missions and supply source codes. Its a learning curve for myself.

    It's in the Scenery section of the new library: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforum...d&page=8&pp=25. Radar stations are provided right around the British coast.

    Unfortunately the objects are not GSL and destructible - a new project perhaps ?

    A few of us converted Cees Donker's RAF buildings to GSL objects, but I haven't been able to work out how to modify the sca file to make those objects destructible.

    kdriver,
    If its ok with Cees Donker's I could take a look and make them destructible

    Here is a tutorial to make destructible objects in gmax.

    Robert John,

    I read your tutorial with the Cees Donker project in mind but was not able to quite grasp it. I'm sure if I was shown how to do one object, I could do the rest - there are 90 objects. I posted this on the forum about a year ago. Simonu tried to help but it was not a success.

    This project has been going for a couple of years, so there is certainly no hurry or pressure to complete it. It has been a collective project started by Sander de Cocq. Cees Donker is quite happy to have his work improved on for the benefit of CFS 2 users. Any contribution by you will be much appreciated. If you want to PM me your email address, I can send you the whole package.

    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Robert John,

    Robert John,

    I could not find the error so far in this mission, but I will keep looking. Thank you for continuing to provide me feedback.

    Robert John,

    Those are the NAMES of the ships. The actual ships are the GC_Jervis, as well as the GC_441 and GC_617, both of which ARE included in the installation guide.

    Hi Robert John,

    Just getting back to Chain Home radar towers, I forgot to mention Pen32Win has a GSL one along with some other very good buildings in his TAF - Gary20 BGL Update Pak.

    Many thanks.
