There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Cool! I'm loving seeing the now obsolete infrastructure (thinking also of the gas holders) coming to life. I don't think these often make it into recreations of this time period since many have never seen or heard of them, and we're left with a more familiar scene. These more unusual additions really take you back in time and will make it a unique experience.
I've updated the terrain map and replaced the grass texture with farmland at Dungeness.
Compared to present day Dungeness , the sound mirror area looked quite different in 1940, and today I almost created a mos texture of the present day lake to place in that area. Luckily I browsed 1940 images to be 100% sure. There was no lake back then so I saved myself some unnecessary work.
Clive's superb model is now in place, though I still need to edit out that bit of green to the left of the model.

I know the feeling, Ankor's latest shader pack is reason enough to dive into storage and retrieve those CDs.

Clive aka Pat Pattle placed the Dungeness texture and buildings as part of his Bob update, and they really make a great difference to the area, now along with his sound mirror models.
