How to mod existing forest features?

[apollon01]

Hello all,

 

While I am not new to modding, I am shiny new ? to modding Il2. Therefore, I am coming here to ask for some guidance and help.

 

I would like to try to change the type of forests on the Rheinland map. What would be the tools to do that? I suppose the forest features are defined in some vector format and I would like to edit them.

 

I deliberately just state what I would like to achieve without much further details as I am familiar neither with the tools nor with the processes.

 

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

I can not help you with this specific case, only what I do when trying to make my own mod, is downloading mods that are more a less similar, see how they cope to that subject.  I know that there are some mods here that do handle trees and adjusting the density of trees, check on what they are using. 

Another great piece of software is UNgtp made by @AnKor  his version can be downloaded on the mod section,

What are you trying to do?

Change the type of forests.

 

At the moment, all the forests on Rheinland map are broad-leaved forests (as far as I noticed) which is far from reality and which looks weird in any season except for the Summer if you stay high up (in the Winter the trees even have still leaves on).

 

So I hope to get somehow on definition of the forests on Rheinland map in terms of polygons and type of forests.
