The Handy Objects Library 8.30

About This File

The Handy Objects Library is a library of objects that I hope you find useful in your scenery creation projects in World Editor (WED).

The vast majority I have created myself from scratch using Sketch Up and GIMP for textures, with a few models taken from the Sketch Up 3D Warehouse with the original author's permission.

To install the library, download the file, unzip the folder and place directly into your Custom Scenery folder. If you already have a previous version of the library installed it should just overwrite or add files as required. However, if you are in any doubt I advise you delete the previous version and re install the latest.

A big thanks to leovox01 and brosenguy for allowing me to include their objects in the library, and also to William T., Laurentiu, PM3D, UilianS, Pavel Vanicek, Men In Black, LVS12122, 'R' & SchreiberBike for use of their SketchUp models. Also thanks to Hans_Petter for his help with the horses and ponies, Marginal for his Sketchup2XPlane utility, and most recently WHIRLWIND for sharing a few photo textures which I have used to create a batch of new objects.

I have recently started a project to re-texture as many existing objects as I can, hopefully improving their look in the process, so please watch out for further updates in the coming weeks and months.

I really hope you find my library useful, and feel free to send me suggestions on new objects.

Have fun!!

Use the farm objects a lot and when something comes up I need to place seems like I always find what I need in The Handy Objects Library.

Response from the author:

Real glad it is helpful, and thanks for the comments. I started the library as I could never find what I wanted at the time in existing libraries, so thought I would make my own…. still not done yet, the occasional object pops up from time to time. On some future wet and wintery day I plan to start to improve the textures now my skills are a wee bit better….always something to learn.😎

Very, very, very useful objects for scenery development.
Standard required library in my sceneries since they really add life to the airfield and there is almost something for every purpose.
I even use a couple of objects for GroundTraffic.

Thanks, Scottish Wings, keep it up!

The library has a great many files with incorrect case matches between the library.txt and the files. This makes little difference on Windows and Mac systems (ones without case sensitive file systems, at least), but it throws a monkey wrench into the works of Linux users. Renaming each file to match the library.txt is going to be a pain.

Update: Very quick response by the developer. Downloading fresh copies of both the library and the scenery calling the library resolved the issue. The logical answer is that I was working off an earlier version... which I swear I had updated last night. Ah, well. Five stars for the library, and five stars for the support by Scottish Wings :D

Great resource library, little too localized for my taste (mostly Scotland and related) and overgrown but high quality asset for the scenery enthusiast!

Definitly part of my palette.
