Well maby thats what the avg winter in Georgia looks like? =P.

 

They dont have very cold winters (especially not along the costal areas etc).

 

So id rather not have textures depicting a Arctic winter landscape if that is not what a Normal winter in Georgia looks like.

 

Good point as well... but I like snow :)

If installation is automated through the module manager, I'll buy it. Compared to the "unzip this", and "copy/paste here", and oh, don't forget to "edit these files", and make sure this is this way and whatever, it sure will be easier, faster, and presumably supported by ED.

Really now though, when will there ever be a "proper" winter ground texture that doesn`t look like a mix of fall and winter, but rather WINTER alone? Really that hard to make the ground all white, as in, you know, SNOW maybe?

 

Other than that, great retexture, day one for me.

 

This is the DLC you're looking for:

Should be ready in 2-3 weeks.

 

You're welcome.

I don't want to disparage Starway as I think the quality of his work is great, but the winter palette he's chosen looks like the most depressing part of winter. Enough of the snow has melted that it's no longer pretty to look at, but enough is there to still be a nuisance. And it's cold, and cloudy, and everything is wet... ugh.

 

A nice snow covered field is way more pleasing to look at. :P

Good point, but a search of images shows what a winter will look like in the mountain ranges of Caucasus, these in particular from the Georgian side, keep in mind that everything is pretty much snowed down, even deep down the valleys:

As for a lower MSL, I could find some images depicting what a winter could look like, but it will depend on how harsh a winter is that given year. Since we can however chose, it would seem natural to show the periods of the year with their most pronounced variations to avoid a similar looking mesh ball that`s barely distinguishable, just like winter can be mistaken with fall atm. Sometimes you cannot even tell until taking off and looking from above....

Finally someone who understands, thank you! :music_whistling: :lol:

 

Now as a representative of the Northern Hemisphere, I simply believe that our climate seems to be, well uhm, underrepresented? ^^

O forgot to mention earlier. Really nice work on the presentation as well Starway!

Beautiful video and music fits well.

 

Can't wait to fly the scenery. Well done sir

 

Yes I've watched the video a few times now. Love the music and camera work. Is there a place to download it?

Yer so Canadian, eh? Now you're gonna want all those soccer pitches on the map to be ice rinks.:lol:

 

Anyway, new textures are pretty beautiful. I'm sure I'll pick them up when they're out.

 

Well I am in Vancouver, and the only snow I see is on top of those mountains we have :)

 

And yes, we need more ice rinks in Georgia, but this is out of scope for this DLC ;)

Please Starway answer. Airports will not have textures in HD? Depending on that answer to purchase your mod. Thank you! Very beautiful textures.

 

Sorry guys, but there might be a missunderstanding about the Airports. The old buildings textures have been updated indeed. Of course, some got more attention, some less. What is not part of this DLC is an update of the runways.

 

See screenshots of the Airport buildings attached:

There is a WWII Sim with that snow coverage and it is quite a stark and boring landscape to fly over.

Maybe ED can look at procedural snow in the future :)

 

I think what Starway has done is probably the most common look for this region in the winter though.

DLC & Helos

 

I also was asked for some helo perspectives.

These are views from very low altitudes. Season is summer.

@Starway

 

1/ Do You have to plan a demo? (btw. I don't know about FPS, I use for example Mustang mod for "no shadows on trees" for better fps).

 

2/ How about Your mod and Sweet FX??? Will it work?
