The part of East Africa I used in modeling the topo features for this terrain look like parts of Texas, some of those Texas exotic ranches have nice antelope from Africa. I used to live in San Antonio. Have to admit when I drive these micro features to look for problems each time I finish a field, I keep telling myself this looks like Texas and kind of expected these comments. Guess you can always look at this terrain when it's up as Germany and Japan tried to invade Texas and ran into Texans. Now all I need is Waffle to model a hogzilla or a herd of swine I can put out around the airfields to make the Texans of AH feel at home. What do we do with the sheep then...... :headscratch:

Keep it up, bro.  It's looks good.  Now if you can find a place for ENCHANTED ROCK STATE NATURAL AREA we'll be set.   :rofl

Terrains have an obscene amount of empty space you have to do something with and no one will ever look at it in a game.

You could make Pianosa from Catch-22.   Sandy beaches are good for sunbathing, too.   :rofl

We also have the second largest canyon in the United States, Palo Duro.

*ROWR*  :ahand

I wasn’t suggesting that for my benefit.   I was offering an idea for you to fill the vast empty space you said you had to deal with.  Those mountains reminded me of Catch-22.

I am done trying to build terrains.  It’s a convoluted process I can’t even begin to understand.   I can’t get even the smallest map to show on my end.   Been there.  Done that.  Tried it.  Until it is like Sim City few people will ever manage to figure it out.   I don’t see myself in that few.

Besides, skins take up my spare time as it is.   I’m reworking the metal on all of my Mustangs.  Gonna take awhile.

When you create the 1:1 blueprint file you have already identified everything to fill space in your theme. You have seen for 5 months I've known where every field will be placed since the day I imported the heigthmap to create the base block 3D terrain. Stop trying to have some kind of an impact on the outcome of what I'm creating. These posts are not my needing an input about building my terrain. They are to show what is going on. If you cannot or are unwilling to do it yourself, control your need to sling something at people to try and get away with it. You already know I don't need what you are trying to get away with.

I love how you always INACCURATELY evaluate intent.   It’s uncanny how wrong you are on a consistent basis in that regard.   

Do whatever you want with your terrains.  I am neither concerned nor offended with whether or not you like my ideas.   I’ll post them as *I* wish regardless and you can take them or leave them as *you* wish.  If they manage to spark an idea all the better, but whatevs...

(I have no idea what you’ve done the last five months.  This is the first thread of yours I’ve bothered to read in that time, and the quote above is a reminder why.)  :aok

Depends on where you go in Texas. We have coastal plains, hill country, mountains, dry desert, wet tropical, high humid areas and low humid areas. Texas is a lot of country.

It was around Dallas and the HTC offices.

Ahhhh, pancake land.  It does not get much flatter than that.  The mountains and hills, in Texas, are in the western part of the state.
