EDVP Peine/Eddesse
Hi guys,
"I´m working on it" about a few years but this tiny airfield has a long history. I want to finish it this spring and i use that project to learn all possibilities in scenery design. I don´t want to make reams of airports all over my valuable lifetime - but this one only conquered my heart: The small airfield is called "Peine/Eddesse (EDVP)" near Hannover. It´s placed inside a forest and is closed since 2010. The reason: A very old owner who never makes restaurations over 25 years, hates pilots and his own airfield i guess. All based pilots have to try spend much money to rescue that nicely place, without any success. Nothing doing.
The flair of the airfield comes from the fifties, much people from the region feeling sad after the close down of EDVP. The airfield doesn´t represent the rules of action today, too high surrounding trees, too old equipment, a touchy owner. My idea is to enternalize EDVP into the Flightsim by using the same rusty and old look, caused by the weather and faineance by the pilots over the years. It´s a lot of texture work, that includes the re-activation of light illumination, bump maps, broken glass and so on. Other steps are to realize night flights and the scenery design of the whole aerodrome circuit.
My work is prepared for the next generation FlightSims and i want to see it in MSFLIGHT in the future (now you can jump out of the plane to make a excursion) - that´s my ambitition. This thread is only for information. So praise me, when EDVP is released by myself and it runs bug free
Greetz,
Christian
