Hi Admiral,

Thank's

[Ironghost]

Good morning Admiral, best wishes for a happy new year and may you be well as soon as possible, best wishes also to all the friends of the topic.

[Admiral189]

Good Afternoon everyone and Happy New Year to you all once again. I hope you're doing well. 

Thanks, Guys, for the well wishes. I will just call it and say my health will improve this year. Keeping a positive attitude towards life is very important when dealing with health issues and having a loving family makes it all worthwhile. That's a great photo Ggrewe! It fits perfectly with the background.

Hey Yann59. if you can find a good detailed 3d model of the Kiev carrier I can look at adding it to my work list but I have to mention it may be some time before I can get to any new additions. Unfortunately, I don't have the talent to create Fighter Jets. I can but it's a lot of work.  I do have a Military helicopter I will be working on though. Thanks.

I have started the New Year off working on the Horizon Frigates. As you can see below I've already started arming the Andrea Doria. Forbin weapons are slightly different. It has one less 76mm Main gun. I didn't realize but these guys have a lot of weapons. 48 Missile cells holding Aster 15 & 39 Surface to Air Missiles. I have to animate the missile hatches with the low brown texture.

Stay Tuned. More AI Ship mods coming.

Hi, indeed the Horizon class ships are Italian-French designs intended to be the main AA escort vessels for carrier groups. Thanks Admiral for these nice upcoming Mods 

[bbtbmb]

Just to say as far as Kiev class aircraft carrier there is a really nice Yak-38 AI bird done by Cubanace available right now. So Admiral you wouldn't have to worry about that part if you ever took up  Project 1143 Krechyet

I can't see it anymore either it was in a SU 57 plus AI assets release, sorry

[buur]

Hi @Admiral189, tried to land on the Allure of the Seas tonight and there where huge FPS drops and stuttering. Just for information.

A little late but Happy New Year Admiral. Wishing you all the best from vCVW-7.

Some action pics from a mission/video I'm working on to showcase some of the great DCS Mods and Modders out there.

Marina Militare Frigates conducting shore bombardment using Vulcano guided ammunition (range 120Km). Prior to air assault by AgustaWestland AW101 helicopters with 8 F-35MMs for close air support.

 

[Triton08]

@Admiral189 What's the possibility of getting the USS America fixed for use in the sim? My Harrier squadron has 6 regularly active pilots and we need a new boat with more spawns.

[McFly29]

That selection of images looks lovely @Beldin! I don't know if anyone else still has the dancing SeaCeptors with the Type 23 Richmond, but I have cobbled together a fix which I'm happy to share if it hasn't been done by @Admiral189 already and with his permission of course.

Meanwhile, I hope you're resting up well Admiral, I look forward to more of your work this year.

[Admiral189]

Happy Sunday everyone. Sorry, i haven't been monitoring the Forum. I've been working on the Horizon Class. I have been cleared for back surgery. Just waiting for it to be scheduled. --Until then I will try to catch up on some old mod fixes.

Western JPN, thanks for the error update. I will add it to my work list. I wasn't aware of that issue.

Hey Buur, that is a collision model issue. I will alter it so you don’t have to deal with that lag. Thanks for letting me know.

Thanks, Roobarbjapan, Thanks, it’s never too late. Wishing you a wonderful New Year as well.

Great photos Beldin you will have a couple more Warships to add to the Italian and French Fleet soon.

Hey Triton08, I will be working on all the Amphib ships after I finish the Horizon Class Destroyers which includes the USS America. Also, I have 2-3 more big decks to create so I’m hoping by summer you will have plenty of ships to spawn on.

Hey McFly29 please share the fix if you have it. I can upload an update as well on my site. Honestly, this is the first I’ve heard of it.  – Thanks McFly29, yes I rest when I can. Sometimes I’m forced to rest because of my P81n but I’m careful not to push myself too much. 

Horizon class update. The Andrea Doria is 80% complete. I need to completely redo the textures but that’s easy. All the weapons work as they should at the moment although they still need to be tweaked.  Once I finish the ITS Andrea Doria D553. I will import/merge all her weapons onto the Forbin Class. Below is a snapshot. Lots more work to do. I was going to hold off on showing her until I finish but at least you can see she is operational somewhere in the Pacific Ocean. 

Stay tuned everyone and thanks for your interest in my DCS AI Ship mods.

Hi Guys, the Allure of the Seas FPS issue has been resolved. I will release an update tomorrow. Monday, Jan 13th. I also centered it so the bow wake has been corrected as well.  On that note I have some Civil vessels I'm working on in the background. One of them is shown below. Small Trawler. 

[buur]

That was fast. Thank you Admiral!!
