Miasma Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 Joey one thing I noticed about your mod is the "Hermes" sign on the side of the ship, If you are going for accuracy then RN ships are not labelled like this instead the name is usually towards the end of the hull painted in red. Looking forward to the new release when will you be doing the 60's cats and traps version?

joey45 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) The sign will be gone in the new version.. The 60's.... The only airframe that could use her is the A-4 but I believe that can't use cats due to the SFM. So until I know an airframe can use her then I'll do the cat 'n' trap version. The work involved would be- Extend the angled deck more aft Modify the island more ad the mirror landing system Weapon systems And other bits.

Miasma Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 The A4 skyhawk works fine with cats and traps it just uses a workaround on the Skyhawk mod itself, so works absoloutley fine on the Stennis for launching and recovery with no modifications required. ( Literally just double checked and the Skyhawk works on the stennis) Looking forward to the release Royal Navy Tomcat skin now live: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/?CREATED_BY=miasma&set_filter=Y
joey45 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 I am doing research on the 60's version... Just that Hermes had so many refits and changes done to her it's difficult to do.

crazyeddie Posted February 4, 2019 Posted February 4, 2019 In her fixed wing time she had a 984 radar (Dustbin) on top of the bridge, when she was converted to a Cdo Carrier they replaced that with the 965Q Radar (Single Bedstead). The 965 types were common to most UK warships of that time and continued in use right up until she was sold on to India. Modelling a 965 radar would take forever I imagine, it was well named !!
joey45 Posted February 4, 2019 Author Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) I want to get the 70s and 80s versions out the dock first.

joey45 Posted February 7, 2019 Author Posted February 7, 2019 As soon as I can find out how to add proper spawn points, or ED do the code, it's not AI friendly. But I think they can still land.

joey45 Posted February 8, 2019 Author Posted February 8, 2019 Traps work. Just don't expect to hear anything from it until after the 70s and 80s refit are released.

joey45 Posted February 10, 2019 Author Posted February 10, 2019 (edited) Template Number 4, the lerch……. or the island Got angary and went into photoshop to add a few more things Modified the Circles and numbers and added the distance markings*. *Using the plans I made a box and measured every 50ft (15.24m) then rendered it out as an AO map to import into the template. Same with the circles and numbers. **TEXTURES ARE NOT FINAL** EDIT- I'm also having a few probs with the livery system for ships. I can get half of it to show up like the names But The diff layer isn't showing and the Normal layer is but the original not the new one for the livery Edited February 10, 2019 by joey45 The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

Miasma Posted February 10, 2019 Posted February 10, 2019 quick question will you be getting rid of the blue deck lighting in this version? blue lighting is only usually used in hangers and not on the deck.
