Amendola air base new hangars

Post by bismarck »

Hi all, I'm looking for someone that can model a couple of new hangars, please.
I'd need them to update the scenery of Amendola air base, where the Italian F-35 are hosted.
Based on Google Earth and the only two photo available, I've calculated the dimension of the hangars.
Hope that someone can help.
Thanks, Giorgio

Easy enough. If no one else steps forward, I'll try to make them.

Found another image of hangar_1 with closed doors.
If someone model it, should be nice to have 3 or 4 doors closed.

Thanks. Giorgio

Here one of the F-35 near the "third" hangar, but I can't understand exactly where it was...

I'm sorry Giorgio, I have not had time to work on it. Real life has left me no time to work on any projects lately.

I am getting married in 3 weeks so things should settle down after that.

That look great.

Can you make them in FS9 version (MDL object file) ?

yes....I think so but as you know these new F35 hangars are only a small parts of the buildings present at LIBA!

Maybe is it planned to release Amendola scenery for FS9 in the next future?

Amendola was released in the AMX package time ago.
I ask for these hangars right to update the scenery.

Ok Giorgio...understood!
I abandoned FS9 a couple of years ago when I decided to use X-plane, anyway FS9 is still on my PC so I will try to export the model in your AMX package (never installed) just to have a look which is the final result.
I will let you know in a couple of weeks.

The actual modeling of the buildings themselves takes relatively little time. It's the sourcing and creation of the texture files that is time consuming as well as texturing the models themselves. For a project like this, I have to make the textures from scratch using bits and pieces I can find on the world wide web. Needless to say, it does not happen quickly.
