Benghalli Islands map (redux)
« on: February 28, 2012, 03:44:34 PM »
After more than two years, highly anticipated new version of the renown and popular map of Benghalli is here!!! Adventurous world of 1930s here we come!!  ;D :D

Some new textures, new BumP textures, new sky, new corals, and many new reefs, and new light! (and all of that done to look totally different than default IL2 style maps  :) )

Edit by SAS~Bombsaway: Here is a temporary link to this map. I'm not sure why Avala has been absent but I'm sure he would want you guys to still be able to enjoy his map. All I have is the ModAct version so you will have to do a manual install.

If needed dont forget to add:    Benghalli Benghalli/load.ini    to all.ini file


Here it is:




The map is inspired with the comic Phantom




And of course tinny-winsy screenshots! (only 13 of them  :P ):




























Enjoy  :)

Looking lovely.  i love the different shades of blue of the water against the blue sky.  Makes it look like a real tropical paradise.  I'll have to get this one just for recreational flying and pretending to be on a virtual vacation.

I'm using it for that purpose as well. I was thinking also to reskin the Slot to look like that, for the same purposes also. But that's too heavy job  :D

Don't forget to bring your swimsuit and goggles!  ;D

This map needs missions with pirates or smugglers and floatplanes.

But I was wondering, I see a lot of trees in open sea and instead of trees on islands next to tiny islands?

This has been and is one of my favourite 2 Pacific islands along with redko's Palau.
+ of course Hawaiian Islands - they sort of have their own island-size league.

I used this map and fly it in 3 installs.

One stock version, one slightly edited water colour, one slightly edited water colour closer to the original...I liked it so much I had to play a bit with it.

Uufflakke: I pretend the trees in the water are mollusks. :D


Sorry, you guys know I fly jets always and everywhere.. ;D, But in the new WIP Histomod I found a very very cool new Polish floatplane, will fly that here as well and post some shots these days. I am not so much into floaters, but that one is really a jewel. (Also like the Japanese Zero floater)



That's 17.00 with edited version..

'Some' more shots with the default map's water colour and shallow.
Had fun last night testing it. 17.00-17.20































I love it
