Starway Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 (edited) A new project is at the horizon: Green Thunder is a complete retexturing of the existing DCS World Caucasus map to provide a southeast asian look and feel. Due to the fact that I got so many update requests for my former Vietnam mod, I decided to create a new version from scratch. This is also something I want to give back to the great DCS community. Update: A first version of GREEN THUNDER has just been released. Check the download link on my website: https://starwayblog.wordpress.com/ Credits: I used some village textures of an old version of B3OP's mod as a base. I also used some small parts of mustangs noise texture. I also integrated an updated version of Solways new Airport buildings. I hope everybody is ok with that. UPDATE 2 released Hi Folks, here is another mini-update for this mod where I made some small corrections to the mip maps of some field textures to provide better blending at the distance. https://www.mediafire.com/?3h32dh44u48t1bh Installation instruction: 1.) Deactivate original "Green Thunder" in the jgsme menu. 2.) Copy and paste the content of the zip file into your "Green Thunder"-mod folder. Overwrite files from Update 1 3.) Activate the mod again in jgsme menu. Done. Have fun!

AG-51_Razor Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Wait.....was the Skyraider supposed to mean anything? At one time, Starway was working on an AD Skyraider mod. Not sure whatever happened to it but now, Archimaede is doing one and when he is done helping out on the Community A-4 project, he will be getting back to it. :pilotfly: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=167159 Edited April 24, 2017 by AG-51_Razor Attached link [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kobac Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I would prefer that the Caucasus remains as it is. Thus it seems to me unnatural with these palm trees. It would be better if the Starway teamed up with developers who create new terrain (Iwo Jima for example). Of course there is no doubt Starway has already proved he a great artist.

Then don't download the mod... From what I've gathered, creating a new map is a lot more than just making new textures Come check me out on YouTube! Twitch!
