ADMIRAL189'S CORNER - INCOMING SHIP MODELS

[gonano4]

Admiral, I find an FPS drop when landing on the Admiral Kasatonov ship. It occurs to me it might be due to a high poly collision model.

My low end PC can not compute if I am going to crash that fast. It is better if you define damage structures with cubes.(right now the collision model even has stairs and fences)

Thanks, Spino for showcasing the mods. 

Please add this code to the Harpoon code without the quotation of the FFGX and it will make the harpoons disappear in the game   " GT.WS[ws].LN[1].show_external_missile = false;"  Also add it to any other mods you use with Harpoon launchers or any missiles for that matter. Thanks. 

Thanks Gonno4 we will look into it. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks for your input! We're adding it to the backlog.

I've been messing around with the Seahawk some for something I'm doing, and I noticed that while you did AO, cavity, and roughness maps, it doesn't actually have roughmets as is. I took the liberty of converting said files to a roughmet (metallic is 0 for everything but the rotor, for which everything is metallic). I was wondering if you'd have any interest in my uploading those for you?

No problem!  By the way, might want to replace those Harpoons with JASSMs or NSMs.

First of all, I have to say that I appreciate the work's that's been done so far.   However, there's a problem with the USS Constellation, where some of the panels on the ship have missing textures.  Do you know if there's a fix for this or is that not happening anytime soon?  Another thing I've noticed is the fact the missiles seem to protrude from the launch canisters.  Hope there's a way to fix it.  null

Hi, the missile protruding problem has been mentioned recently. The solution is to add the following line to the ship's LUA file (without quotes):

" GT.WS[ws].LN[1].show_external_missile = false;"

I had the panel textures problem, but this was due to a Mod conflict. It is solved for me now. Thanks to Admiral for his superb Mods ! Enjoy.

Hi, Sorry, I don't remember which Mods caused the texture problem. There was no fix, as far as I now. Fly low....

the missing texture is in the mod USS Oak Hill (LSD-51) from page 1. or replace it in the texture folder of the USS Constellation FFGX-62.

Really appreciate the stuff you guys do - thanks very much.

The expert artist here is definitely Admiral189, whose amazing naval Mods for DCS are unprecedented contributions to its naval warfare aspects. My guess is that there are still more coming from the shipyard..... Many thanks Admiral !

Do any of the ships added have HARM codes we can use at all? Particularly the Admiral Kasatonov? @Admiral189

[Admiral189]

HEY Guys! I'm still here. I had to upgrade the memory and cpu on my PC. New Graphics Card enroute.  Over past couple weeks I have been trying to learn Substance Painters. It's a WIP. 

High Maintenance i've already updated the textures on the Oak Hill and the Constellation. I just haven't released them yet.  The weapons on the Constellation are comparable to the weapons on the Admiral at the moment but they need to be tweaked before I release her. The Constellation has a new Anti-Ship Missile vice the Harpoons. 

Something i've found is that creating the AI Ship mod textures in Paint appears better than photoshop. At least my opinion they do and much quicker to create.

What ship will be next?

[Spino]

I really like the LA class submarine, but it does have some issues.  For one thing, it doesn't seem to fire its weapons anymore, at anything.  Aside from that and the missiles sticking out of the VLS cells, its main issues are with armament placement.  Currently both Tomahawks and Harpoons launch from the VLS, which is incorrect.  The VLS can only launch Tomahawks.  The Harpoons should launch from the torpedo tubes.  Aside from that it shows up named incorrectly, should be something like "SSN Los Angeles Flight II", not USS Los Angeles Flight II SSN 688.  USS Los Angeles was the first ship of the class, with hull number 688, and never had the VLS tubes.
