A 3 base WW1 terrain?

Nice job Ranger.  I vote #3 but would like to see
the other ones as well at some point in time. 
Btw, are those hi-res pics ?

I do use hi-res graphics, but I believe that only affects skins.  The terrain should look the same for everyone unless the they run the low,all-graphic-options-turned-off settings.

I still like 3 the best but 4 is a very close 2nd.

Very nice job ranger.

Definitely #4 excellent looking wee number that one

Terrains do look good <S> but I worry about those hills and low mountains.  These airplanes have tended to barely manage on the flat terrain of current map.  Start adding in hills and mountains and the majority of kills will be ditch awards due to people bellying in trying to avoid sloping terrain.

Just a thought.

I like #1 the best followed by #2.  I've seen enough green terrain.  Time for a change.

Nice work Ranger. I like #2, closely followed by #1 and #3

Lowering the hills wouldn't be a problem.  Maybe half the size they are now?

3 or 4.
As for the hills. Strategically placed they may help funnel the fight to where you want it.

   Ya know, I was thinking.  Since the actual fighting area for WW1 planes is fairly small, with HTC's approval, I could easily put 3 different environments on one terrain, separating them with a tri-spoke mountain range so each environment could not see the others.  This would give the players the ability to choose which environment they like to fly in and eliminate the need for separate terrains which Skuzzy would have to rotate.  I'd really like HT's input on this.  It would save everyone time, give the most options to the players, and only require the terrain to be downloaded once, instead of 3 different terrains.  Opinions?  Especially HTC's?

[Bronk]

Brilliant!!!

Excellent idea Ranger - as long as the 3 area's are distinct and separated from each other, that's a winner in my book.

I've actually made a terrain like this before for offline missions and it worked out very well.  With the mountain ranges separating the environments, one side cannot see another, so there is no loss of immersion.  Also, with no strat & such to worry about, I could spend that time adding goodies like towns, villages, etc., making it as lifelike as possible.

Thats the stuff right there!

Brilliant!


Be nice to see a village, or factory's, or rail center, or something similar  in the middle to dogfight over.
Or maybe all 3 each one in a different area!

One of the 3 sets of fields will always be unused enough to be able to do a 1v1 or 2v2.
