Grass Experiment (JSGME Flowers )

[SARFlytitus]

 

Revamp of the Mod ! Now JSGME compliant !

Hope you Like

 

 

Just messing with great 4K grass textures from FF*VaSoK*22 ...and this is my  rudimental attempt at adding some flowers using GIMP. 

 

I hope that FF*VaSoK*22 can add best refined flowers with his great expertise.

That's ACE!!! It really adds to the ground scenes!! Kudos to you!!

 

Now just be prepared for the backlash about them being wrong for the time period, climate or soil type, the petals not facing the sun and their FMs (flowering models) being over/under powered and biased towards your particular horticultural preferences (with are clearly Russian given the petals are red)  ?

ooooooo i like the pretty flowers.... no homo

[=gRiJ=Roman-]

With those flowers I just don't feel like fighting anymore .... 

[LukeFF]

Great job!

[Bando]

Whatever people say: It's fantastic to see some wild flowers.

[Danziger]

It does make it look a little more realer. Is it possible to have more than one colour of flowers?

[BOO]

@SARFlytitus I hope the response you see to your work is enough to encourage you to consider publicly releasing it and I hope @FF*VaSoK*22 is open to allowing you to build on his already great work.

@BorysVorobyov

Something like this? (Hey, only rough splashes of other colours just for test!)

@BOO i'm not skilled at all in editing textures. this is only a rookie and simplistic attempt using the great work of @FF*VaSoK*22.

Glad  that you like my flowery meadows

Anyway, i can ask him permission to upload HIS textures modified by me. 

It's HIS work... and He deserves all merit! I've only added a few splashes of color ...

☺️

I've made little research about flowers in the Russian steppe finding  some like this:

They look fantastic!

Those really do add to the scenery. Much more life like.

Now we need 4k train textures.

[BOO]

I'm hooked on this! Id really adds a lot. Since the maps have seasons I wonder if it would be possible to change the flowers from them also. Yeah I know its taking something to the extreme but...........

I don't want no dirty train sullying those flowers with its mucky discharges and god knows what being thrown from the troop transports - Bicycles only.................and take your litter home too!!

This goes far beyond my "modding" skill!

Your skills and eye are very good! This is great work. Do not doubt yourself my friend!!

[SARFlytitus]

ok...after some QMB testing :

I saw that there are no flowers only in winter maps ... an obvious sign of some form of mask season related.

[FF*VaSoK*22]

Great work! I do not mind if you share your version of my mod.
But there is one thing from the technical point of view of the given mode - the texture of the grass changes its color depending on the color of the textures of the earth on which it is located, it is necessary to check that the color of the flowers is not distorted. I also did not make flowers because of this. And because of the fact that one and the same texture of grass is used for all seasons of the year on maps.

@FF*VaSoK*22
Thanx for your Work and appreciation!!
I'll upload your texture edited by me ASAP !
In fact, I noticed this thing: in summer and autumn maps the colors of the flowers fade slightly when compared to the spring maps.
Instead the colored flowers disappear completely in the winter maps. This greatly simplifies the use of this modified texture.
In short: flowers are always present in spring, summer and autumn ... (I think it's quite acceptable),
frozen grass and shrubs in winter as usual. 
A small step for a simmer but a great leap for all florists !!!???

I like flowers in the battlefield

[Poochnboo]

You know, that is actually very good. I don't care much for the version used with the last Macchi picture. That blue just seems a bit much. But yeah, the rest are great and I'd install this.

[NETSCAPE]

Looking good, here's some inspiration:

 

[von_Greiff]

...it's those little things!

I'm missing those telegraphmasts like in IL1946 as well, but as Jason said, it's a flight sim....

 Oh...LOL!!! this picture depicts only a "rough test" of feasibility.

Anyway, for anyone interested to smell a little russian flower scent... the download link is ready, is in the first post!

 

Again, many thanx to you FF*VaSoK*22 

 

Thanx so much for your fantastic work wich inspired my little attempt .

Hope you like it

Me too! When I crash deep down, shoot down by "the hun in the sun", they are already on my very recent grave?

[Dakpilot]

Is this any relation to the 'Happyhaddock' RoF flower Mod?

 

looks nice regardless ?

 

Thanks

 

Cheers, Dakpilot

[SARFlytitus]

@Dakpilot     Obviously yes, just yet another attempt to transform a work of others, already remarkable, in something new and I hope pleasant.

At this moment it is, I repeat, only an experiment for personal use. Should it please the community, I will ask permission from the author of the original mod to be able to modify its texture and make it publicly available reserving Him the credit for his wonderful work!! 

[Missionbug]

Very nice, thank you very much, really appreciated.

 

 

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

Like in IL2:1946 by adding telegraph poles, hay stacks or the washing lines with laundry object (like  on Slovakia map) an environment with the illusion of human presence and activity is easily created.

Or by adding smoke coming out of chimneys and smoke stacks.

 

But adding telegraph poles along the roads and railways may be a rather time consuming job. And understandably the team has other priorities.

Hopefully a modder will get around to it.

I had some problems to make it work, but it was because of the route:

It's kinda funny that we hardcore combat sim pilots are drooling over pretty flowers in a field lol! But the mod is really good and I shall be installing it. Thanks for the great work. 

 

Now if you will excuse me. I have to tend to my tulips ?
