TeamPacific would like to present... well the team.TeamPacific was founded just a few seconds ago in an E-mail.  The team right now is D0gma, Razor747 and Myself. This is not just limited to us since the Pacific Theater is so large we could never do it all. We would like to annouce a few projects in the works and give you a few heads up on what we are doing. TeamPacific Webpage will be posted later this week and will be hosted by the Hangar. Our current plans are as follows F4F4 : Continue the great work to get the plane finished. A6M5 Zero: Update this model to reflect the Japan nation and update the cockpit and add some new features. Many other Projects have been started, one is further a long then others and it currently in early Beta testing in game. (after talking with the team, we feel that this project must remain a secret since it's a large jump forward in the Pacfic Plane arena, it will give a few people a heart attack for sure.(it's not a bomber)) We have some US Carriers in the works which will have some new features already present on a few aircraft. We will keep everyone up-to-date on everything we are working on and will post images when we feel the community needs a "pick me up" We could possibly have some images of an upcoming carrier in a few days. If you are working on and Pacific Theater carriers or planes, contact us to make sure we do not copy any planes or ships. Mposis, we know of the carrier your working on so no need to contact us with that. ------------------

Wow! A whole team now. I cant wait to see what yall have in store for the Pacific Theater. (Actually I can wait, considering it will no doubt take a while.. a long while, to improve and add things to the theater) The only real Pacific things I have is a huge mission using everything that has ben released to the public for the Pacific theater.IP: Logged |

Opps, i forgot a plane. I'm still working on the Ki-61 Hien and might be releasing a new version sometime soon. Since the new 3D model is taking longer then i though and i really want to do more with the cockpit, i'm going to texture map the other model so people can do schemes. I'm going to map it with the new texture so scheme made on this new mapping will still work on the new model just look a ton better.------------------

well Razor down for the count, he's having to reformat all the drives for some reason. We are talking about releasing an image of the secret project to make you guys drool. the counter discussion is that it's really good and might make you people expect to much from us What do you think?

IMO your first order of buisness should be to get the Terrain updated worked out. After all, whats good about having Pacific planes if there is no theater to fly them in?IP: Logged |

For this to work, I think you would have to get the AI able to take off from the carriers-- or be happy with always starting in the air. But I really enjoy the challenge of taking off-- and hope one day the AI can be taught to fly and take off better ------------------

Razer,Can it be done, a flat ocean in the Pacific
Theater? Maybe more detail to the Pacific islands. I don't want to get to excited about a new Pacific Theater as I'm sure it has to be one of the mose difficult undertakings in this sim. And I'm sure that Jag gave it his all, I really have no room to
rip on anyones work here, I can't do it.
I rely on people like the you and others here
(the higher powers) to get these things in order.
But I myself would love to have a flat ocean and a more realistic Pacific, everything else looks real...
Thanks

hhhmmm.. this gets me thinking... I could build a terrain with loads of water and some islands taken from the Africa terrain, real water that is... but it might take some time and help from others to map.Sorry guys, been thinking about it a little more.. I appologise for being stupid because I've known how to build a new terrain ever since I made Snowy Dover, I just didn't look sideways...  I'll build a terrain with water and islands if you like (if Team Pacific don't think it's stepping on toes) The islands will be taken from Africa, so you know what they look like, but atleast you will have a min of 1 working airfield.. 2 if I get it right... damn I hate being dum.. and for so long aswell, it's all so easy you wouldn't believe it ::shaking head:: anyway, I got a couple of hours before I go work on Mothers bar, so I might aswell get started. ~Nat~ [This message has been edited by Nat (edited 04-19-2000).] IP: Logged |

Nat, that works for us. I'm working on a few carriers and we have some ideas on how to get them to show up as airfields and i already know how to make the control tower work on the tower veiw. nice to see the planes fly by on the carrier.IP: Logged |

Razer, the package is on its way, but it'll take some time to upload, if your mail system can't handle large attatchments, let me know in this thread now so I can stop it, I'll send it to my webspace instead and give you a direct d/l linkIP: Logged |

Nat, did you send Razor the new Pacific terrain you made? (the flat water with islands that are imported) If so, could you send it to me too? It would so improve my Pacific Carrier Attack mission. Thank you!IP: Logged |

Argon, I'm sending Razer one part of it, it's a big u/l) I have a flat terrain textured properly, but the land is just flat land colored as water, Razer has a flat sea terrain.. we're basicaly puttin both together as I have islands with working airstrips. I know what to do now thanks to Razer to get the land as sea, so soon you will all have a great new terrain (Plus other things added to it that I wont talk about.. but you're gonna love it!... good one Razer ) unforuneatly it's not something that I can just send out as a beta or even as a "here you go", cause it's such a big u/l and d/l, but don't worry, we don't expect it to take very long ~Nat~ IP: Logged |

it's going rather quickly actualy.. thankfully I had worked on the texture some time ago, and the sm aswell, I've had to make minor changes so far to get a pretty good result, and I'm sure that with Team Pacific, the terrain will be ready in short order IP: Logged |

Heres a question, how do you add an airfield to a terrian, like lets say the WWI terrain? Or can this even be done on a simple scale?IP: Logged |

Diego Lozano,
I too would like to see a Med Malta terrain (which we have, sort of) but with more of Italy. Also northen Italy would be of interest as there was a lot of WWI a/c there. Heard that the elevation of some of the allies's airfields was at 5,000 feet. They got into some real mountain flying. Can mountains be made? We have hills. But hmm mountains that would be cool on the Italian front. One of Canada's WWI aces said that the flak on the sides of the mountains was just as high up as he was flying. Well I'm digressing. Are you thinking of doing a Med map, maybe with Malta as the most South landmass than Sicilia and some of the Italian boot? I wouldn't mind giving it a try, maybe after the end of the month, if real life doesn't get in the road. ------------------

Lookin good guys. BTW, If you're lookin for more team members, I'm a Pacific kinda guy. Let me know if I can help out. Don't know much about terrain, but I'm not too bad on the Blue Planes And I'm not convinced yet that the torpedo can't be made to work either. Got an ace up my sleeve to try on that one... ------------------

Are you showing us 3 betas Nat? The Pacific terrain by Team Pacific, the Dauntless, and the Yamato.Oh, next time, please knock before you attack. You caught the Yamato right in the middle of taking a shower. Don't you hate when that happens?
Is that real water too? Has anyone figured out how to land on it yet?
You know the Yamato is going to need a Jake or two. Everything looks Awesome!!
Can't wait for it all! Hurry up, Please. ------------------

yeah those FR's were low, I put the mission up just for some shots, the reason they are so low is... 9xDauntless 4xAkizuki Destryoers, 1xAkagi(mposis) and 3 Cargo ships... there was alot going on when the pics were taken with all those guns letting loose.. LOL oh, and even with a fast machine and good g/card, I never get the FR that most of the guys here say they get, my max FR in most missions in 24 anyway.Daunt, no Yamato isn't in that one.. it's not mapped yet.. the Betas in there are my Pacific Beta (some water, some water colored flattend land), and the SBD5 Beta (with the adjusted rear turret) [This message has been edited by Nat (edited 04-20-2000).] IP: Logged |

well, this morning has been very eventful in the Pacific Theater. I got a new book on a rather special Carrier from a rather big battle, and plan to get a working model in game in a few days. We also got some rather cool news about Terrains and should have all the Terrian like it should (water is water and land is land) sometime soon. I think we will go ahead and start tweaking the Zero, and i'm going to remap the Ki-61.
When we release the new Zero and Ki-61 we will release at the same time and will move them to the Japan nation and get them out of germans hands

Great news about the progress guys!But at the risk of being out of line here lets not forget (terrain) that most if not all the Pacific islands were and are volcanic. (hint, hint)
Thanks...
