The Kiel Canal Bridges

Kpt. Lehmann · 09-03-06, 05:35 AM

Now that you've finally found the Easter egg in one of our screenie releases... and just to perpetuate the myth that our mod is all fluff :rotfl:

Here is one thing we have done...

Modelled after the real thing...

The only thing is that we have had to do it larger than the real one because the SH3 canal is three times wider than the real one due to coding and game limitations.

We are keeping the identity of the builder secret for now.

Yay, eye-candy! Keep it coming

!

You couldn't put roads, street-lights, and so on down too, could you (yes, you know me, I'm an eye-candy freak)?

It looks wonderful

It would be good to see cars or trains there

Kpt.Lehmann, don't be surprised, expectations towards GWX are big. I hope we will be pleasantly surprised

Yet again the GW team come up trumps!!

Looks great! Not to whine (well, yes to whine) the thing I would like to see most is the Brunsbuttel docks moved to their proper place.

We went through this but I cant remember where it was supposed to be

It was on the river IIRC with locks at the canal entrance ?

It looks like a small rectangular harbor dock, just inside the canal on the north side, opposite from the patrol boat that's parked there in GW. I tried to find the thread with the photos, but I'm running out of time to look.
