The Ocean terrain is up.
Get it here http://www.simfiles.com/

There are 2 parts to it so please d/l both. Part1 is 5mb and Part2 is 28mb. It started as a side project for TailGunner but, I got carried away and made it a stand alone terrain. Feel free to use it to add Islands since that was its original intent.

There are a whole lot of ideas for PTO right now, and anyone looking to have a bash has a great base to start from here!

Thanks Diego!!!

You can add islands by just referencing another SM file with just your islands in. Then add airfields and targets....job done!

Tg,
I think I follow your theory. Is it as simple as creating a Wake island airfield and "placing" it on the Ocean terrain? Would the AI recognise the airfield? (Lightbulb going off)it would be just like a regular terrain airfield where the AF is just a ref! This is great, Midway can finally be realized.

Actually, with the PBY coming out, German sub killing, some long range JU missions... perhaps somone could do a FW-200... And with the advent of the ship launched aircraft, this could be the North Atlantic... ;}
Of course, we could also do intecepts from the North African campaign.... ship based for the germans to attack and air intercepts for the allies to attack. ;}
This is helpful for the pacific, but don't forget the other over water action we can do.. ;}

I'm not one to forget the other areas of conflict but, right now thats where our interests are.
You're right though, this can also be made into a North Atlantic ocean scenery...just give the texture a bit more frigid green/grey. I made this terrain to be a base for anyone who wants to get into building terrains. I'd love to see someone add a section of the Tundra map and create some nice Finnish scenery.

The Norht sea would be cool. With England on the left, the Shetlands at the top and Norway to the right.... (Heroes of Tellemark anyone?)
