colonel_klink 0 Posted June 27, 2004 Cool oil rig, and isn't that a revisited Nogovan airport in the first pic? No but the Nogova airfield did give me some inspiration. A the moment the base is a bit small, and I will be making it a lot larger and more complex with just HAS' rather than hangers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schoeler 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Colonel, we had plans to do an oil rig for the 3WX Middle eastern project, but yours looks excellent. Would you mind us adding it to our industrial pack with full credit given of course? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nathanz 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Wow I cant wait for this island with custom objects, its going to be like Christmas all over again One suggestion: How about making a secret submarine base into a side of a cliff ? I suppose you would have to make the cliff an object but it should work if the land texture are the same as the object ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Â Would you mind us adding it to our industrial pack with full credit given of course? I dont have a problem with that, but it is a long way off. I started this about 18 months ago and just add a bit more when I feel like it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Nice work - a lighthouse you could actually get inside and climb up would be awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colonel_klink 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Another screen of the rig. Sorry about the quality Geforce3 is not kind to night graphics in ofp for some reason. The green block on the helideck is a temporary marker for lining up the rig addon and the roadway which is separate. The whole thing is made in separate addon parts which will allow for individual damage to to various parts without having the whole thing crumple. This has taught me a lot about sine and cosine computations, also that setpos'd parts need special attention if an addon had roadway lod.. Hence the seperate roadway addon. I can see some advantages working this way, namely one piece large ships, and other large structures to overcome the 64 meter roadway limitation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colonel_klink 0 Posted June 29, 2004 Nice work - a lighthouse you could actually get inside and climb up would be awesome. Â the lighthouse on the Utopia site pic is fully workable, and can be entered. a ladder leads to the upper level. Light can be damged apart from the building and a separate series of damaged models is planned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
