I agree

Unfortunately Unity is available for free, but not World Creator

I am now finishing the "Petite Vieille" (working on textures as we speak). This is the first lighth I will send to you. Is the measuring tool needed urgently?

I remind you that you can measure the distance between two vertices by simply selecting them. Wings' top bar will display automatically their absolute distance, followed by the distance along the three axes. 1 unit of length = 10 m. This is the most accurate measuring method and the most practical, unless you want to measure distances directly in game.

I don't understand...
Can you please show your and SHIII's version of the Island side by side?

Nice! What game is that? For a moment, before could I read your message, I thought it was SHIII LOL

Let's concentrate on the french LH. Perhaps the LH of "La Vieille" could be tested in game very soon ?

We will see. As I said a few days back, the front light can be either on land or in the water. Should the concrete base be too short, we can try and raise the sea bed, or alternatively I can create a sand dune model to be attached below the base. As for the back light, it would be better if it was on land. I am confident that GWX/WAC got Dune and Helgoland in their right position. If not, I believe that shifting them by 200 or 400 meters shouldn't be too complicated.
