...with a love interest and multi-cultural/sexually oriented flight crew.   :cool:

But I'll at least watch it in Pay-Per_view so I can FF past the lovey parts.

Unless there is serious skin.  :D

They will definitely have to change the same of the squad dog.

Unless....they cast the flight crew with a bunch of rap stars.

Anyone who hasn't seen the original should watch it this weekend. Some of the scenes where they used models over miniature landscapes are fantastic.

Dam busting in AH would be kinda fun other than the huge chorus of semi-profanity when an entire region is flooded and 4 bases and 4 strats become useless for 15-20 minutes.

I'm sorry, got a bit off track there. Not like the other posts.  :D

That is not Dambusters!
That scene was inspired by 633 squadron movie with mosquitos flying through a Norwegian fjord to toss a bomb down the shaft of a German MacGaffin factory.

I was exploring the limits of the river path utility in the terrain editor and thinking about teaching myself Blender by building a dam. We don't have a function to imitate a flood so the idea of a destructable dam in AH3.....Meh!!

I get bored sometimes and unlike some, I entertain myself instead of blaming Hitech and quitting. That's how I ended up building that 4th terrain I hope Hitech will put in rotation... :)

After the first 3 taking 6-7 months each, this recent one only only took 4 months. Ooops, now what will I do........ :headscratch:  :bhead
