You know, if your island is called Greece, you could make the effort to make it look Greek while you're at it smile.gif

Do you want pics tounge.gif

Actually I've never visited Greece (no vacation since 1997)! I looked for some pictures on the internet and decided to use the Malden set of textures and objects... confused.gif

Thanks, I'll see how I can implement this...

...hm, some of the Nogovo-buildings seem to fit, but that would blow the island's pbo...

...well, at least it's not my traffic! biggrin.gif

Well, I've continued and tried to follow Ex-RoNiNs advice. Now here's the result:

grc03_05.gif  grc03_06.gif  grc03_07.gif

grc03_08.gif  grc03_09.gif  grc03_10.gif

grc03_11.gif  grc03_12.gif  grc03_13.gif

Status: island 1/3 finished, track 1/2 finished

More pics and a progress map will be available soon on my page

And no, implementing OFP:R-buildings doesn't blow up your pbo, greece3 is smaller than 500kB...

You can almost hear 'Zorba the Greek' song echoing from those narrow streets... tounge.gif

Yes, they DO look good.

I have been to Greece several times. The good buildings tend to all have red terracotta tiled roofs, and the others are part finished concrete types.

How does the track look??? I have just done a few race maps for the Ia Drang Map and its good fun. Are you including different types of terrain or just roads?

I've been to Corfu and took a day trip to Athens, that really isn't much of Greece, but I think that looks good. Any thoughts on making a plant that is like a bunch of wheat that way you can actually make a feild of wheat(or whatever) to crawl through.

Wow, excellent island! i've been to greece four times, and i would say its about right. Ofcourse I've onll been to Rodes, Crete and Corfu (2x), so i don't know how the rest op Greece looks like. However i did get a nice view from the plane I was in, and judging from that view I would say the general appearence of the eastern Islands is the same. Ofcourse the westcoast has a slightly different climate and thus a slightly different ecosystem. But I suppose a real Greek would say otherwise. So don't quote me on that tounge.gif.

Allright, now i'm gonna nitpick a little wink.gif, it looks great and i see you have used resistance building, but could you add the resistance trees too? They look way better, then the ones originally shipped with ofp. But it looks great the way it is and if you want to keep the pre-resistance foliage, then that is all up to you biggrin.gif

So keep up the great work, and i hope you take my request into consideration!

Greets Arch.

No idea biggrin.gif. This island would also be nice for some WW2 missions, unless there aren't any modern houses & objects all around wink.gif.

Today: Good Wine

LOL, is that a joke tounge.gif

No proper Greek place would call itself "Coffee Bar" though, it is "Kafenio" (in Greek characters of course wink.gif ) smile.gif

Great job though smile.gif

KALO KRASSI should be some kind of advertising (come in, we've got good wine! ) and is not related to today's menu...

Today: *smearedblackboard*

wink.gif

Ok, KAFENIO instead of KAFE BAR, got that (seems that was beyond the limit of my phrase book). Perhaps SSOUVLAKI as today's menu?

I'm thinking about implementing town-names and -signs. Soon I'll present you a map of the island with pics of the towns, and you can make proposals...

Make that "Souvlakia" smile.gif

You could also add "Gemista" and "Arakas"

My favourite meals wink.gif

Top looking island! biggrin.gif

Seeing as most Mediterranean landscapes are similar in a way this island could be used for any mediterranean scenario...Brilliant!! I'm Sicilian myself and from those images it looks damn good!

Here's another slightly modified building (a must-have for every proper greek town, right?):

You need to make a proper Greek church or two smile.gif That is needed smile.gif

Der Bastler would be written like that in Greek:

"Nter Mpastler", including the quotation marks smile.gif

Other than that, its great smile.gif

Love the EKO station biggrin.gifbiggrin.gif
