Hey, is your next patch gonna include AC as well? Or does it already and I'm being a moron? I use the WFP or ROTJ, so I haven't tried just the PL patch alone...
I'd kill to have that Camel model...

Exactly - I wrongly assumed that the existing PL patch did not include aircraft, and it was lucky one of my WFP downloads was broken or I would not have run PL alone and found out to the contrary. The PL stock aircraft are lovely, and all I have done is put my previous FM and damage models in Simpatch. Thanks so much for this wonderful and simple PL patch.

I re-installed RB3D when I heard about the Glidos thing, and Promised Land shortly thereafter. I remember posting that I thought the default aircraft looked pretty good in RB3D. I later did another install of the game, and found that the default aircraft were pathetic. So those aircraft I was admiring as "default" after I installed Promised Land were the ones that came with the download?
Promised Land is an outstanding add-on, and I just saved those fabulous screenshots of Kess's to my HDD.

ok guys heres the scoop. all that there is plane wise in the PL patch are SWWISA created wired planes, some come with their own skins, but they are not full replacement skins for each plane of that type in RB. outside of 3d wired plane models there was nothing plane related included in my last release. For the next All Seasons version im working on fixed and remodeled terrain, some new buildings, implimenting new game objects, corrected historical aces, all planes in the game being skinned by PL, flight models, damage models, reworked AI behaivor for SP, more game shell music, and fixing any loose ends that are left from the first release. ------------------ Kess The Promised Land [This message has been edited by Kess (edited 10-25-2002).]

I'm really at a loss as to how you could possibly improve your PL terrain as it looks to me about the best of any flightsim at any price. Ditto for the effects (I use DeltaK's redux128 and all is now well).
I tried one of the stock USAC N28 missions and gave up chasing the Pfalzes and Halberstadts just headed for the deck, where your terrain and objects look just as good. With the F6 external view, hedge-hopping thru your terrain is an experience in itself, the feeling of speed is better than in many jetsims. Well done.
"Thanks" doesn't really cover it but i'll say it anyway.
More improved, better res planes and/or cockpits to the same very high standard would be very welcome. Those posted look fantastic.
Keep up the good work!

Ditto what Ivor H says. The effect of the trees casting shadows is amazing. That last shot looks like a photo of the real thing flying over real nature. I agree that it may be the best terrain seen in ANY sim.

I agree that it may be the best terrain seen in ANY sim. Yep. Aside from too much contrast, they are superior. Remove the contrast from the tiles, and it would be so real you'd swear it was actually happening.

The planes you've posted so far are exceptional! In the past I've used ROTJ and have been equally impressed. I'd like to try adding ROTJ 2 soon. How hard would it be to remove ROTJ 2 and try the updated PL planes when they become available? I've read about the changes that need to be made to make PL and ROTJ2 work together and I'm just concerned about getting everything all messed up later if I want to try something different. Also, does ROTJ2 change more than just the plane skins (ie flight/damage models, missions, etc)? If so is it possible to just intall the plane skins? Any comments or thoughts are much appreciated.
Thanks

The FAQ at the ROTJ Webpage tells what to do to make ROTJ & PL compatable. The next version of ROTJ will have the unnessesary files removed for you, and will be even more compatable with PL.

Breathtaking work, Kess. Now, if you could find someone to paint the individual squad-colors on that it would be drop-dead gorgeous....maybe James or some of the SWISSA-guys? Or am I asking for too much, seems the RB add on gurus are all a bit hostile against each other???
