Looking forward to this one  :) i beleive the original Hawaii is one of the few stock maps that has not received much love, i never tried the Saburo Sakai version due to a seeming lack of missions/campaigns/qmb's but am looking forward to try your re-juvinated version!
I really feel that a full set of QMB missions for a new map is a  vital part of the release  ;D

Thanks for your continued work on the Pacific theatre

Cheers Dakpilot

The Saburo Sakai-/porto72 map is so good! Look very much forward to your version, Whitecat! (..my first contact with Pacific IL-2 maps was Hawaii...love it.)..

Cheers!

I tried that exact one but I wanted to get the red color a little more believable. Maybe with your photoshop you can get it to look real. :) Also, setting it a correct size was difficult for me as well.  There are a lot more cool volcanic textures in that program.
Cheers. :)

here's a good example of what a lava flow looks like from the air.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/gakout/2084514795/

It's much more orange than just straight red, with darker, cooling areas in the middle of the flow.

Excellent work so far by the way. Way back when on AAA, I had started trying to redo the Hawaii map using a slightly modified stock map with completely rebuilt object placement. I know a few others tried after I lost interest in finishing the project. I was never quite happy with some of the limitations in trying to build an accurate Hawaii with the limitations of the engine. Some better, more appropriate textures than what I had to work with will go a long way though.

Keep up the great work!
