I was planning on using this hanger to put a vehicle in, but as of right now the coding of the vehicle is being a bit problematic, if anyone could help me who knows anything about spawning vehicles into the level, I would REALLY appreciate it. I know that you can drop them into the level, but the object I'm wanting to put in freaks out when I drop it in through the editor, so I'm lookin to just make a spawn point so it will come into the game when the level starts.

Inside the hanger there's a nice flickering light effect which I really like.... I'm such a nerd.

At this time I'm still using the basic starter textures too if ya can't tell :). I'm hoping (time allowing) to make my own textures and pop those bad boys on.... until then, I thank TGE.

Hey thanks alot for the inspiration man!! :) It's always good to get some feedback from people so I really gauge how things are coming along.

Hey, on a side note, if you're still working on that real life sim it looks really cool, I'd like to hear more on your ideas for what you want to do with the game!! Take it easy man, PEACE!!

Looking good :) One hint, I'd put a bit of dirt texturing on the terrain around the base of the hangar, it makes it look like people have been tromping around ;)

You know Gareth, I did that in the beginning..... but I just didn't like how it turned out.... I think it mighta been the orientation of my building in relation to the texture area.... but something about it just didn't look right, so I kinda had to cut my losses, and just go with the grass...... LOOK ITS MAGIC.... IMPERVIOUS TO ABUSE!!! Now if only I could have grass like that..... hmmmm
