My first mod, Jack's Real Aircraft!
Posted: 29 Jul 2014 18:23
Hi there guys!
Firstly I would like to apologise for my poor English, I am actually from England, I'm just extremely tired after a long and productive day.
(I understand it may take a few days for the devs to notice this post, with the release of 1.70 looming)
Thanks for looking! I'm only sharing this with you guys, and if you don't like it I will leave it unreleased, I just thought it would put ProMods even further ahead in realism than it already is.
I'm relatively new to Promods, since I had a lot of trouble signing up for the forums!
Scandinavia is my favorite place to start with, and your map making skills really bring it to life (along with France) Everything is in the right place, and in no way generic!
Since 1.11 beta came out, I updated straight away, 12 hours of gameplay later, I realised I was bored and tried to downgrade, however my savegames didn't work on 1.10 when I tried to downgrade, so I just stuck it out.
Since then, I have educated myself on the wonderful work you are doing, making myself very excited to see Iceland, the Baltic States, Finland.... basically all of it!
So I decided with all of this creativity around me that I should get creative myself!
I really want to get into map making, however, I thought that I should firstly sort out one of the games more pressing issues.
AIRCRAFT!
The models are just fine, but the airlines were fictional (understandable, due to copyright with SCS)
I desperately searched around for a modification to replace the existing aircraft in game, wishing that someone would make one.
After realising that I am indeed someone, I thought I could undertake the task!
Here are the results so far!
(Note = The way SCS made the textures did not allow me to add registrations, or much fuselage detail, but these aircraft look great from the distance you would see them from in game)
I hope you like what you see!
I made sure I did an SAS 737, as I knew it would be important for the map!
I also though that A Lufthansa and British Airways 737 would be appropriate, as these aircraft are seen throughout Europe.
If this generates any interest, I will continue making this mod by doing all of the 747's!

(By the way, I am going to do the 747's in non-European colours to make them more plausible, you wouldn't see a Lufthansa 747 in Italy, or a KLM 747 in Belgium etc)
