Work is progressing on my latest project for RTMM. "Whiskey Cove". This area is located in a small cove near Bella Bella on Denny Island. I am doing this with a fishing village atmosphere in mind. Here is one sneak peak image that shows several base areas for the cove.
This scenery, when released will be the first for RTMM that will utilize a new configuration utility being developed for all of our users by Rod Jackson. This "Control Panel" will be used during your pre-flight session to select various scenery levels of complexity for this area. You will be able to select a basic scenery area with just a few extra details. Or select a robust arrangement of possible configurations that will add dock objects, extra shoreline enhancements, extra seaplanes, both static and animated. Animated birds, extra boats, etc.
It's got a bit more work to do, but it's looking good so far. This area is special too. Nearby Bella Bella is active with AI seaplanes, and our PFJ AI Shipping package has several vessels cruising through the nearby waterways.
More updates to follow as the project progresses.

Looks really cool, Brad! Any plans for a airstrip nearby?
-
Nope. There's already two airstrips just a few miles away and two water landing areas in the same area. Plenty of places to touchdown at around here.

Hi All,
See picture below for map of the area so you can see where Whiskey Cove is in relation to the two Bella Bella airports. Brad's scenery is looking very nice...this will be a great stop when flying in the area.

Another cool feature at Whiskey Cove. An amphibian ramp pullout and animated hangar. Just line up your amphibian aircraft with the water ramp, put your gear down, and drive right up onto the wooden platform. Do a tricky 360 and line up with the hangar. Then tune into 114.5 onto your Nav 2 radio and watch the hangar door open up! Pull into your hangar, tune the Nav 2 radio off of 114.5 to something else and the hangar door will close.
Next time you're ready to fly, tune the Nav 2 radio back to 114.5 and the doors will open up on the Hangar. Back up on the dock, fire up the engine and move off the dock, down the ramp and back into the water. Put your gear back up, and lower your water rudders and off you go!
Works great and after a little bit of practice, the 360 turn on the dock is a piece of cake.
Dex Thomas is also putting the final touches on some AI enhancements for the area that will even make the scenery come alive even more.
Coming soon.

HI all,
Whiskey Cove has entered Beta Test. Testing will be a little more extensive becasue of the control panel. However, the wait will be worth it. Brad has created a beautiful piece of scenery to be added to the Bella Bella area. Dex has added AI Boats and Floatplanes so that the area really comes to life!
And for those of you who have fairly slow systems, the new RTMM Control Panel (picture below) will let you tailor the complexity of the display to whatever your system will handle. I must say though, that this scenery is pretty frame rate friendly. I have a fast system so I am using some of the control panel choices to change the look of the scenery according to the time of year...for example, in winter....less birds, no boats, some floatplanes etc.
I think there is somehting for everyone at Whiskey Cove (picture below)!
