I rarely post updates here, as most of the info and updates already go out to moddb and our discord server, but here are some screenshots of enviroment tests I've been doing.
With the starfighter overhaul finished (oh my, finally) and my schedule freed up, I thought I'd have a look at the enviroments in EAW. People don't really do enviroments in EAW, not necessarily badly, but at all, with a complete lack of any terrain outside of the playable area and that's a shame. It's not hard to improve on, even just anything is an improvement, but I'm seeing if I can't go the extra mile and do it well.
The space map was actually just a nice side effect of the ground enviroments, there's a few terrains I have now that are so large they can be used as atmospheric backdrops even. Two videos to go with these images,

Being freed up after the Starfighter overhaul really put a jump in my step if I may say so, and I'm back to happily experimenting with random stuff I think of at 3 am, and I'm happy as a pig in shit. It's what I love doing the most, and it's what creates some of my best stuff, I think. More enviroments coming, for closer updates, the discord server is never far away :)
Have yourselves a great Sunday, and Dutchman out.
