How do you create airfields?
« on: January 20, 2001, 01:07:00 PM »
Guys,

   You've helped me tremendously already. I am still working on that Battle of Britan map, but I'm stuck with the original Airfield. I'd like to add enemy Airfeilds, but friendly would be fine. I can't do it, so I'm working on the geography, but getting bored, help!

Thks for reading this,
Presider

How do you create airfields?

Make a test terrain so you can see what I mean.

Call it what ever ( test ) haha

Now just make big square area and use grass texture.

Select the tower that already there and delete it, then place AFLrg-S.obg airfield where the tower was (note small box will pop up 1 new ) select it with mouse and click ok.

Use the AFLrg-S.obg airfields for this test because I know there is no major bugs in it to crash this test.

Place another AFLrg-S.obg airfield somewhere
on your terrain (small box will pop up again with 2 new ) select it with mouse and click ok.

Place about 10 AFLrg-S.obg airfield on your terrain.

Then on your clip board select setup then Field Settings.  Your 10 airfields will be A1, A2 etc ...  A10.  If you select each one change them to what you want.

Example: Pick A1 and select Original country as ROOKS and Current Country as ROOKS.

Do this for each airfield  and when done click save, then close box.

Back in the edit terrain click build terrain and exit saving terrain.

Now if you run this terrain the airfield should be as you selected.

NOTE!  I'm new at this also, so some of my steps my be the long way around.

Pokie

Thank You, Poke!

 Thanks Incredibly! Now I can do Luftwaffe in france! And RAF in Britain! This was the best part of the war (terrible to say, I know) but Hitler lost the whole thing when he invaded Russia. I love this time in history!

Thank you,
