The terrain looks great and is a must needed update.  But my crystal ball foresees people complaining about not being able to see GV's from the ground or the air.  Which would be an excellent thing IMO.

SAPP will carry on the tradition.

Actually by the looks of it, they were part of the test group for the new terrain. I have proof! Observe!

I have a rather beefy computer, and notice that AH 'stutters' whenever I get hits and it has to load a new animation..

So I am just wondering, will this befall the same fate of WW2online in that they kept the 'zones' too large and thus the small details took too long to load and thus - frustration on the users set in.  Efforts to fix things resulted in an endless loop of throwing good code over bad which results in bad code after all, chasing bugs etc....not to mention the MEMORY LEAKS that game had..

Each time the graphics have been updated people complained they always do.

If things are done right and like pyro has hinted the new terrain system will be easyier to adjust to different
geology and areas,

Maybe we can get new toys like railways and road traffic, ship convoys to shoot up, bridges, rivers,bigger cities and strat targets.If it adds more  then it cant be a bad step forward

It would be nice if the details in the terrain texture (e.g. roads) were to scale. It really kills immersion when your GV or plane gets on or near those details and the scale is totaly wrong.
.. Looking good so far.. Gonna be great to have proper textures again.

There was someone who was working on a new look for the buildings. I did a search but could not ind what I was looking for. His buildings had peach collored roofs I think and he had made large concentrations of them. Was wondering if that would be added in any new patch.

Anyone remember who that was thats was involved with that. Checked croduh's posts, it was not him.

That was for Croduh's custom Soccer War maps. There are several custom and SEA maps in game with custom buildings.

Yep, i thought I remembered reading that those could become our new buildings.

Great job Croduh!
