Eielson WIP

Post by james84 »

You wanted it and here it is!
I started working on it tonight and the taxiways are already in place. I also started placing some objects using hte Elmendorf, Klamath Falls and Portland libraries

Main hangar and control tower. The hangar has reinforcements on its sides and tower is a bit taller than it should be but the PACAF patch looks nice (I think I'll replace it though)!

Weather shelters

The real ones

Housing

Last but not least, there is a four-place Weather shelter in the southern corner. I did NOT manage to find a suitable object. Any suggestion?

Not bad, but it has writings and looks very specific!
I found a similar building but has the Oregon ANG patches, so I discarded it!

I made one like that for the...Minnesota ANG I think. You might be able to use it. It's hard to tell from my iPhone.

Where did you find this scenery ? I seek on avsim and flightsim, but I did not find it. Have you a link for this ? Thanks.

There is also an update for Bitburg with a new AFCAD file and new airport background texture.

A second-best solution... this seemed to be the most suitable building, though the whole object comes with another one close to it.

Dear MAIW stakeholders,
today I had a lot of spare time so I added several object to the Eielson scenery.
Instead of posting screenshots as usual, I prefer you to see the scenery directly in your sim, so please download it and pos your feedback! :mrgreen:

Very nice !! I see you've got one building to finish and to add the roads and the taxiways outside of the main ones (?)
Really looks good ! This from MAIW's really most inexperianced member .

Looks like you could use a new airfield grass background and maybe some updated land class around there??

Yes, there are lots of buildings to add yet, but the taxiways are complete, just some aprons are missing!
ATC? Let's wait for the results... until April! Fingers crossed!

I know, it doesn't look that good... When done I'll ask Hartwig to do a specific background file using the autogen textures, so I'll avoid placing the trees. There is just that railway that I would like to remove, but I have to find a way...

The railway can also be removed using Sbuilder.

Yep, would take less than 5 minutes. SBuilder can remove any sort of textured line like rail lines, roads and power lines. It can also add all those as well. :wink:

Ok, I'll try. Hartwig, is SBuilder the program you use to make backgrounds?
