Pete Wenman Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 (edited) A Marine Harrier pilot breaks ROE and carries out a low level overflight of the Syrian coastline.http://rapidshare.com/files/118854779/har1.mpg.html Possible amphibious landing site The swankey end of town. Harbour entrance Slipways and oil storage It is suspected that landings will be carried out in the area in the near future with the hope of securing the harbour facilities relativley intact.

handihoc Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Wow! I think we're being teased! How cruel! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handihoc Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 And is that WATER I see before me?! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YankeeDog Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 It's been established that Pete is using a tall grass mod, colored blue, to simulate water in these images. IOW, it's a tease. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Wenman Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 Sorry to say this is all made with the current editor, so no it's not water. YD - it's not tall grass, its marsh tiles. 3/4 Sunken lanes of gravel will be used to allow vehicles to "swim" ashore. It works but the limitations of the engine have to be taken into account. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webwing Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 This is awesome Pete!!!! Fantastic work! I just watched the video. It looks like a completely different game. Have you actually played a mission with it? - 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combatintman Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Well his backside is history then! Last flight that boy will ever make. [ May 30, 2008, 01:27 PM: Message edited by: Combatintman ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl Steiner Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Pete, Absolutely beautiful work! This would be a great map for some sort of night-time raid to destroy the harbour installations, like a modern version of the "St Nazaire" commando raid by the British in WWII. I can't wait to play this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combatintman Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Yeah but now surely you'd just drop a JDAM on the sucker 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisND Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 What are the red buildings? A mod? I like them! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdstrike Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Outstanding map, Pete! I hope you release the mods along with the map when it's finished. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kettler Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Outstanding indeed, even though I can't view the MPEG presently. Am also curious about the apparent "antigravity" design of some of the buildings in the last screenshot. Either that, or the pillars are too narrow to resolve!

Webwing Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Originally posted by John Kettler: Outstanding indeed, even though I can't view the MPEG presently. John, I had no problem. Maybe a codec missing? It's worth investigating. The fly-by movie is a beauty! Am also curious about the apparent "antigravity" design of some of the buildings in the last screenshot. Either that, or the pillars are too narrow to resolve! It looks like Pete deleted some walls. With his keen eye and perfectionism he might end up adding a post light or somefink to take the place of a pillar on the corner. I guess they are some kind of warehouse. I'm always impressed how Pete can manage to take all the juice out of those buildings and flavour objects. He combines them to create completely new kinds of objects and buildings other than their original purpose. Outstanding! - 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunnersman Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 So...what ever happened to that Harrier pilot for breaking ROE? Or did get a medal for taking such great pics? And how my g's did he pull in those tight turns? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl Steiner Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 I thought I'd bump this thread to see if Pete's done any more work on his marvellous harbour map. I'm sure some of the newer members won't have seen the screenshots before. Maybe this will be a scenario in the Marines module? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paper Tiger Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 I'm not eactly a new member but I managed to miss this when it was first posted. Wow, very nice indeed. I just had a look at CMMODS and I can't see this marsh tile mod anywhere. Any chance that it will be made available sometime soon? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but now surely you'd just drop a JDAM on the sucker I'm sure some clever scenario designer could come up with a reason why a commando force had to be landed. Maybe they must laser-designate the target to minimize collateral damage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Wenman Posted August 30, 2008 Author Share Posted August 30, 2008 Guys hi I'm holding this back, but expect it at Cmmod's a short while after "Marines" is out. The custom textures will be includes. Marsh to water, and one building texture is altered to allow for the fuel tanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cabal23 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I should just quit. I too was working on a harbor, but yours is incredible. I bow down to your mastery! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabal23 Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I have never seen a fuel tank mod. Will that be at CMMODS as well by itself? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
