? about art for mods.

Post by Central Blue »

I have rough idea where ADetail and JDetail are displayed when I start a scenario. What is the point of the AHistory and JHistory files?

And is spooky's still the place for posting mods?

The picture purports to be a view from the Standard Oil dock in the teens. The mountain in the background doesn't look like Mt. Tamalpais.

Below is my ADetail for my Bay Area Refinery mod. I have a nice shot of a B24 over Ploesti, since I can't find any pictures of Japanese subs shelling oil facilities on the left coast. But Japanese FB's might prefer the stock art instead.

This one give an idea of what Mt. Tam looks like from Point San Pablo. The light station is East Brother.

And since it is all about the eight inch pipe lines, two to Tidewater -- Associated at Port Costa, two to Standard Oil at Richmond, and one to Shell at Martinez:

Three guys, three cars, and miles and miles of pipe.

here is the original of my first pic.

If this is the Long Wharf then we are looking at the Tiburon Peninsula with Angel Island on the far left.

Digging up stuff like this is part of the fun of this game. Glad you are enjoying. Any moment now, some one will come along to ID the tanker at the dock, or at least its class.

I really get a kick out of the pipeline pic, endless captions come to mind about three guys doing all of that digging.
