ArleighBurke

Hey Silver Dragon! Very long time no talk! How have you been I see you have gotten into the 3D modeling of naval war a lot more! I'm glad to see this! I was wondering did they ever expand the game for us to be able to control the vessels now and do naval warfare? Or have you found a way to accomplish this. As I mentioned before Arleigh Burke well now she is the Michael Murphy I re textured her is still up for use if we can find a way to get her to be playable! Have a great day I look forward to your reply! Keep up the amazing work I see here Sincerely, Devin

I have the same problem where i cant select anything... But also I have 3Ds Max 2013.... Anyway Im trying to do work on the Ticonderoga Class Cruiser and the Frigate can someone help me possibly by converting them to a 3D model file that is openable?

Please PLEASE Make this possible. I would gladly donate my ships as the models for this game

BTW guys YOu can purchase the 3D Models on Turbo Squid: Click the Link Below: http://www.turbosquid.com/Search/Artists/GeneralDynamic?referral=GeneralDynamic

I see... I think i was told somewhere else we could use naval units.. I have no idea either way i will post a model picture later as i am on vacation. Sincerely, Devin

I see.. This kinda is a downer therefore I will use a lower poly model for this which I have purchased from Turbosquid. Kinda weird as DCS says Lamd, Sea and Air...

Ya i see well i think they leave it out to improve frame rates... But DCS developers better jump on the Naval Portion of DCS :p

Wait what! Lol I didn't know you can't control ships??? In that case I will end up showing my lower poly version of the AB! I was under the impression that you can use low poly ships in DCS... When is is expected to be that you can play as Naval units?

I have already made a LCS Independence Class. I will have to dig up the model files as she is and old model but. She was pretty good i just didn't do any interior! As the shape of the exterior is weird and i have never seen any bridge photos from the LCS Independence. That is why i have pushed back the construction of the Zumwalt class because i don't know what the bridge looks like. Wait i just looked at that link i saw bridge pictures but one of the pictures appears to be the simulator NAUTIS which is a $3000 Simulator that features the Independence, Nimitz and Arleigh Burke as well as many US military and coast guard ships. Speaking of a Bridge is DCS is it required a model of a bridge that is walk around in or is just the exterior required if a Bridge is not required it will reduce the Poly count alot if not i will re design the bridge to be very basic.

After I'm done with the Arleigh-Burke Class USS Rafael Peralta I will be starting the Zumwalt Class USS Lyndon B. Johnson. So I Should not remove the fire hoses?

I Made a United States Navy group for those interested in Naval Operations in DCS

I'm Sorry I'm not understanding what you mean? I checked the Polygons on your carrier are about 409,257 About 70,000 more than my DDG? I didn't understand as you said the Poly count on my DDG is higher then your carrier... So Do you recommend removing items like the fire hoses? I removed the rigging of the wires above the bridge to minimize polygons. Ill Get to you soon on the Part Number! And thanks for the compliments! Sincerely, Devin Rodrigues

Very Nice i Like the Frigate!

Thank You Guys! So I have news on the Poly Count of the USS Rafael Peralta Polycount: 325,023 That I'm afraid is going to go higher as well because this is with out Wires, Rope Railing, Propellers and The Main Turret. I will take requests of sections of the ship people would like to see. Here is a Picture for the Day! This is not my model this is just info on a Arleigh Burke Class Destroyer! Does anyone have a picture of the Ticonderoga currently in game?

Your work is not poor, very well done, I believe it is a Torpedo Boat Correct?

Stern View:

Yes I can imagine that aswell, Yes the only problem is that the Arleigh Burke is an American ship and the MS Queen Elizabeth is British it would be the job of the Royal Navy but i understand what you mean. Or the Esperanza is trying to evade capture by the North Korean Navy after taking photos of their nuclear sites and the USS Rafael Perinatal must escort and protect the Esperanza. I have made a Nisshin Maru but it is probably one of the worst models i have ever made it took about 5 minutes and is very low poly!

Thank You! They Both have Bridge Interiors aswell!

There is a Polygon Limit? I would happily accept if he has the time! Ok they are not combat related: MV Esperanza MS Queen Elizabeth

Hello All, I am new here my name is Devin Rodrigues. I was recommended her from another forum stating that there wasn't many Naval models if any. I have been modeling ships for a long time but this is my first attempt at a Naval Vessel, i have made cruise ships, Greenpeace ships and sea shepherd ships. I really have never played the game and i would like to see some renders of the Sea and the way ships look in game. Any How I Have been Working on this model for several months. She is almost Complete. I have to model the Bridge and the Turret needs to be put back on the Bow but other than that she is pretty much complete. I Hope this is the right section as well. She was modeled in Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk 3DS Max and SAP Visual Enterprise. Name: USS Rafael Peralta Type: Arleigh-Burke Class FLT IIA Hull: 115 Status: Under Construction Builder: General Dynamics (Bath Iron Works) Operator: United States Navy Top Speed: 42.5 Knots Enjoy!
