v1.05 Fixed a few hovering trees alongside runway.
There is the «real» French Polynesia with Bora Bora island - being the well known holiday destination. But besides that there's also a fantasy or 'Hollywood' version of it in our minds, created mainly by a number of «Mutiny on the Bounty" movies, most notably the one starring Marlon Brando.
THIS ADDON SERVES THAT. With all the liberties needed. You'll see:
- half a dozen of historic sailships (the Bounty, of course, is among them, as well as a Pirate ship), most in a hoisted sails and a furled sails version
- more than a dozen of wooden shipwrecks displayed in the surf of the beaches
Most of the wrecks are located at 3 hotspots on the rim's outer coastlines, namely along the NTTB runway and at the eastern and southern tip of the rim. In order to make the shipwrecks on the beach visible from the runway I exchanged the bushes with palms. These are assets from the Oceania WU with MS' NTTB and NTTM airports - which you should have installed anyway when you visit this part of the world.
DEPENDENCIES
You'l notice that the file is very small. That is because all assets are in previous uploads of mine. So you absolutely need:
- Sailships 3D Model Library (SimObjects)
- Scilly sailships & shipwrecks, latest version v1.3+
RECOMMENDATIONS
Highly recommended is Cli4D Design's Bora Bora improvement project. It's payware and a modern world enhancement, but the improvements to the landscape and especially the coastlines are so big that ─ if you like the spot ─ the addon is certainly worth its price. I may honestly say that with only the default scenery I would never have considered to create this sailship and wrecks addon.
Don't forget to crank up MEAN GROUND LEVEL wind layer to at least 5. It helps a lot to make objects merged in water look a little more natural.
Many thanks to Mamu without his toolbox this addon would not exist!
