Admiral189

I was going to check the modelviewer to see if the code was there. If so it can be added to the Main Lua! I haven't seen the rudders work on any of the ships.

Hello, Something i noticed is the propellers on the USS Forrestal aren't animated! We call this in the maritime world. Trailing Shaft! Maybe the code is missing from the Main Lua code! r,Admiral189

Thanks Guys! I have one more coming as soon as i animate it. USS Ohio Class SSGN!!

Hey guys, I said earlier this week i wanted to share one of my projects with you and i have a lot. Today i will be sharing with you all my Los Angeles Class Submarine. USS Los Angeles SSN-688i. Unfortunately it doesn't launch Torpedoes. When i add the Torpedo script to the model it doesn't appear in Game for some reason. So the 688i only launches torpedoes if i add it to the Chinese Assets folder within the root folder. Also, the submarines doesn't submerge automatically but you can manually submerge it using the depth feature in game. I will be packing and releasing her soon. Next week i will be releasing the USS Bowen FF-1079 and i will attempt to release another model within the Forrestal era hopefully by next weekend! Stay Tuned! Admiral189

Thanks Bruddy! I'm happy to see you all enjoying the models. I have a surprise for you all by the end of the week. Stay tuned!

Hey Greg, Thanks. I appreciate that. I'm trying. Thanks Navy! yes Toni i will be bringing a cruiser to DCS. Hopefully, Shortly after the frigate! I curious to see what happens in a couple days. Hey Eddie, those were the good ole days we use to have. I remember them all!!

Hey Guys! Sorry if i confused you guys. Navy talk flatdeck. We call The LHA's bird farms as in they carry helicopters.. So i have been working behind the scenes to get an escort up and running for the Forrestal Release. USS Bowen FF-1079. The 2nd ship i was stationed aboard from 1989 - 1992. I'm running sea trials now and testing weapons.. if all goes well I will release her when the Forrestal is released.

Hey Neo, can you send me a snapshot of what your talking about with the LCAC. Send me a PM! Has anyone heard or seen any news on the flatdeck release supposingly this week? I'm working on a model for release with the carrier. If it's delayed i would like to know. Thanks.

Thanks Neo! I will check them now.

Your welcome Shrike! That Ghost ship above looks the collision model for the mod.. Robert, i'm trying to sort out why the collision isn't working on the Patuxent... It's setup properly but what i did learn... Personal AI that were created fall through the deck. The UH-1 rotors fall apart and i think it's because the pallets on deck.. Modding News! I have managed to get a couple Subs in game but we had to set them up using the Chinese assets folder.. I haven't been to make it Sep mod yet...

I appreciate it Sushy! Thanks much!! I will test it out on my end Robert! I assume your talking about flyable.

Thanks Guys! Robert the USNS does a collision model. Do you not see one in the Shapes folder? If not i can upload it here. I do have a better Oiler coming so and i will be releasing it soon!! The sub will be sailable.. It's small challenge for me to get it to auto submerge but i will try to work on it again. One thing i did notice the subs can be manually submerged!! I still have all the older submarines as well. Just before version 2.7 the submarine i worked on was operational and then came the update.. Toan, the photos looks great. I hoping to add one more to your collection this week..

There's no submarines yet Anoos. The ship is a Submarine Tender. These ships are mainly used mostly to provide maintenance to the submarines while in-port. I will be creating a static submarine to go alongside the ship to make her seem more realistic. Lots more to come. She will not have torpedoes but I will add Tomahawk cruise missiles and Harpoons as weapons..

Hello Guys! I didn't create a collision mod for the AS.. Not sure if you all will be using her at Sea. I will release the collision mod here: See below. Just add the .EDM file to the Shapes folder! Collision test is below. The AH-64 on the left is static and the right Blackhawk is AI. https://www.dropbox.com/s/6amlql00vhmkhsv/USS Emory S. Land Collision mod.zip?dl=0

Hello Guys! I have uploaded the USS Emory S. Land Submarine Tender mod! Page #1 Line 20. There are no weapons on the mod. There's two versions. One version is Sea Going and the other is Anchored. Nothing special about the mods. Mostly Harbor Candy!! I hope you all enjoy! More to come soon! Enjoy! Admiral189! USS Emory S. Land (AS-39) is a United States Navy submarine tender and the lead ship of her class. She was named for Admiral Emory S. Land. The ship provides food, electricity, water, consumables, spare parts, medical, dental, disbursing, mail, legal services, ordnance, and any parts or equipment repair that a submarine may require. To accomplish this, the ship has a physical plant similar to that of a small town, including 53 different specialized shops.

Yes, as soon as i can resolve the lighting i will upload them for download. Thanks DJ! I will keeping it going.

Thanks Gunter! I have learned to slow down and take my time. It's hard to get in with those Professional Modders Tank. If they feel like they can use you or your models. They will reach out to you. I've seen it done! Would be nice though!! Thanks. I will be releasing the AS some time today. I've been distracted working on the escorts.

Hey Greg, Yes, my plan is to release the AS-39 Sub tender this weekend. I'm not sure if i will be able to finish the Mt Whitney.. I will also make a livery for the Blue Ridge as well. I also need to release the update to the America with the Tripoli livery. In the short short term i want to release at least one to two escorts with the USS Forrestal release next month. You know one thing about creating models if you can't create them all the time you tend to lose interest and right now the only good time i have to create the models is on the weekends which is not enough time. I will continue to create the AI ship models but it just may be slow!

Hey Mapi! As Eddie said the red will still show even if i lower it in the water. Also the original textures angled up a bit so you will see the red. I will tone down the color!! Honestly i don't like the new look. I like the old weathered look because no ship is immune from rust and algae. I will try to release her this weekend. Haven't had much time to work on her. I'm working Full time in the office now. Gunter i couldn't find an older LPD model out there.. i found one but it's crap. I will try to include USS Mckee Hull livery with the AS on release.. Thanks for letting me know!

Hey Guys! I will be back in the saddle soon! Here's what i have been working on lately. I want to Thank Eddie for assisting with the liveries once again.. There's multiple liveries, USS Emory S. land, USS Dixon, Frank Cable and L Y Spear. There's two versions of the mod. One with and without the mooring Buoys. I will work on the Mount Whitney next and release both together. Forgot to mention! Thanks NavyBrown for the idea! My plan over the next few weeks is to create one or more escort ships mods for the USS Forrestal release.

Hey Guys!! I'm still here just working behind the scenes.. Jsr9597 - I had a good Knox Class model i was going to release but was told not too because of copyright. It's a model from Cold Waters so i couldn't release it. I have another but it's really not in good condition. Penguin, where did you see Razbam was creating a Knox Class? I think those ships listed will be released with the South Atlantic map. My issue is I don't want to create a couple ships only to find out Razbam or some other Team will be creating them so if you all hear or see any news about it let me know! Thanks. There will be an update tomorrow. Friday, Sep 17th so we'll see what it brings. Also, all the Russian AI Ships can transit the Apra Harbor but no US.. Admiral189

I think i may have found a Long Beach.. not a bad model but do able.. When i look for models i always check 3DWarehouse.. So the model you just posted CDODDERS. https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model/68981986-4cec-4627-8fa9-44b85f94fed1/HMS-Astute-Class-nuclear-submarine?hl=en

Ok sounds good. Right now my plans are an Oiler USS Sacremento, a Leahy and Knox class.. If i can find a good CG i will try to work one as well. We'll see if they produce by Oct 14th which is a month away. https://stormbirds.blog/2021/06/28/heatblur-treats-us-with-forrestal-screenshots/

Hey James, I have already corrected it. I will be releasing an update with the USS Tripoli! It's just one of those glitches that i see sometimes. So with the Forrestal release close approaching. I will be creating some escorts to go along with them but has anyone heard of them releasing escorts? I hate to create some mods and their creating some also. Let me know if you all hear anything? Thank!!
