Will there be a Quantas jet made too?

Just as a airport show piece?   biggrin_o.gif

We could do hostage crisis missions on it.

wow_o.gif That is a bloody good idea...*goes away and makes notes to begin project.*

And i was suppose to be the ignorant brat tounge_o.gif

Nice to see you will make the jet , i would say to save some time just grab one of those 747 addons and re texture and tinkr with the model a bit (with permission by author ofcourse) , if your short on time and hands.

We have some reddish desert here too , but it depends in the evening it looks that bright red otherwise its pinkish or yllowish or orangish wink_o.gif

It looked that colour when I was standing in it wink_o.gif

Depends on where you are in the desert, whether it has rained recently, etc. We looked for a sort of middle ground and found this texture worked well.

Looking good!

Are you thinking of making any Australian vegetation? We have some pretty unique trees & shrubs, and it'd really add to the atmosphere. The standard OFP/R vegetation could pass for being Aust. (ie. the spinifex-type grass), but I'd love to see Eucalypts...

I will try.. I wonder how it hard is to make trees, the models look like X's when viewed from above so maybe it is just two double-sided faces crossed.

And yes, a lot of the small plants and some of the trees look very similar to what we have here. But yeah some obviously Australian trees would be great.

FYI: Progress on the island has slowed but it hasn't stalled.

Lt_Damage has recently taken on more responsibility managing gaming servers at OGN where our OFP server is hosted. Hence he currently has little time to spare and is therefore not working on the island.

Hence it's just me finding time around full time work. (T!G) Terran has also joined the party though.

That's cool, maybe we'll see more 'realistic' island sizes e.t.c.
