[WIP] Atolls & Allies Update

Crannogman · 02-01-16, 06:03 PM

Dear friends, it has been too long. It has been 4 months since I got caught up in exercising, and re-enacting & other CW stuff; meanwhile the fight against Hirohito has been neglected. But no more!

I am working on completing the sub-net atolls in the western Pacific, at which point I hope to be ready to release Atolls & Allies 1.0. After that, the plan is to do the atolls in the Spratleys and Paracels, and finish overhauling the Us naval base progression.

I am "finishing up" a 1.0 version. I figure it will have about 80% of the needed terrain changes, and up to 100% of the needed unit placement changes (optimism!).

If somebody is good at 3D modelling... I could really use a version of the "Small Pacific Harbor IV" without the piers sticking out. A lot of significant ports (eg. Freemantle and Brisbane) were in rivers, but replicating this has been difficult as all the harbor models rely heavily on piers; this makes the rivers nearly un-navigable. Also, I would love to have the breakwaters from both ends of the "Small Pacific Harbor II" model as stand-alone models (esp without lighthouses). Effective breakwaters are sorely lacking in the game, leaving harbors wide-open to long-range torpedo attacks. If you have a minute to model, one or both of these little modifications would be a boon to realism, and would earn my great thanks.

Sorry to rip up old threads, but was this mod ever released in any way?
