A few months ago I decided to work on the aircraft viewer module of the Object Inspector. The stock appearance left much to be desired, at least in my 4.08 version.

The changes:

- 1024px textures are used for both sky and land.
- The sky and land meshes have been changed, mainly in their slope where they meet at the horizon.
- The sky and horizon textures are visible to nearer the horizon, resulting in a narrower haze band separating them.
- A third texture, of a thin cloud layer below the plane in view, has been removed entirely.
- I've added a Sun and surrounding glow at the correct place in the sky.
- The clouds are now more realistic, and the sky color is not so 'electric; blue.
- The ground texture is of farm fields, replacing the 'village' texture of old.

A panel of three screen grabs of the viewer window...

This is for the object viewer available from the main menu, where you can choose to view planes, vehicles or ships, for either the Axis or the Allies. You select to review data or the object itself, the latter being viewable over all angles and over some range of distance.

For their variations of the viewer, the terrain under the vehicles and the water under the ships was deemed OK enough to leave as is, for the time being anyway. And so only the aircraft viewer's scenery has been worked on here.
