Would it be possible to turn some in-game airports into 'Military' Airports? All airports are 'civilian' in the game due to the way the AI generates buidlings and parking spots and fills them with GA planes. For example EGUL, RAF Lakenheath, is in the game but it has civilian aircraft parked up in the areas where there would be F-15's parked up. This spoils the immersion when landing a Fighter Jet there such as the MB339 [and soon to be released F15 from DC Designs] as I'm landing into a... well, beginners flight school it seems!So what I am asking is it possible for someone to do the following;
- Keep the existing runways, taxi-ways and parking *but* exclude (or hide) all the civilian aircraft that are parked there. (This will enable us to still use the airport but still park up). Just make it so no GA / Airliners can be parked / used here other than the players own if need be until MS (hopefully) implement Military features way down the line.
- Place 3D models of fighter planes, cargo planes, helicopters etc in empty parking spots. (Could remove some parking gates so we don't end up clipping into these models - IE 20 x Gates, Gates 1-9 + 11-20 disabled and only used for stationary 3D models, Gate 10 only for the player to use) Just whatever looks realistic and as it would be in real life as to where they park up.
- Finally, bring the airports up to the same standard as other airports with better hangers (would be cool to park INSIDE a covered hanger like some jets do as in the picture I used) and change any aspect of them from civilian to military as some military airports have slightly different markings, signs etc.
For example, within the SDK there is no model for the Hardened Aircraft Shelters either with the blast doors open or closed.
Other generic military buildings are missing form the SDK and there is a complete lack of choice of control towers. Considering the control tower is probably the most iconic and recognisable building at any airfield, the SDK sadly has very few to choose from.
I'd be happy to have a crack at Lakenheath but would need someone with blender 3D modelling experience to create different HAS models.
I've already enhanced and released RAF Machrihanish and RAF Fairford, although I do need to revisit Fairford to add some features that I've learnt when enhancing Machrihanish.
