Does this mean we are going to get the Nelson also ?:Kaleun_Applaud:

If VonDos or SquareSteelBar want to send me their files about the Nelson remapped, I will test them and add them into my mod.

Thx.

I still don't know what Nelson you mean.

My guess is the original Nelson conversion Kendras did at the start of this thread. The current release is the Rodney, but without camo paint. At least that is the way I understand it, unless I am confused also :doh:

Best regards.

But as he stated in post #20 it wasn't the Nelson.

Yes mate I see now what you mean, perhaps the mods should change the thread title :hmmm: It's all getting very confusing. maybe Kendras can enlighten us more. Having never played SH5 I ask this question, in SH5 is Rodney camo'd ?

Best regards.

At the beginning, I released the unit as the Nelson (VonDos sent me this model under this name). But I realized that it was in fact the Rodney, for several reasons :

- the ID numbers are identical with GWX Rodney
- if you open the .dat file, all the nodes are named "Rodney"
- the original SH5 file has the Rodney's camo :

Also, the hull's texture is not the historical one, because I've removed the AO map which darkened a lot the hull. Maybe if you want to try yourself, the map is here :

You can try yourself with this .dat file. Just rename it "Rodney" instead of "Nelson". This file does include none of my tweaks, it's the original one.

Now, about the Nelson : just the same unit as the Rodney, but as a separate unit (remapped), to replace the SH3 Nelson.

HMS Nelson converted from SH5 [IDs remapped]

Thank you very much ! Just a question : did you remap from the SH5 Nelson or from SH5 Rodney ? I ask this because I've added some improvments in Rodney ...

It's based on your primarily released so called 'Nelson' from 02-06-2017 in post #1.

:salute:

BTW:
I've noticed that it is possible to sink Nelson and Rodney with only one lonely torp. That's a little poor I think... :hmmm:

I think it comes from your Zones.cfg file. Please post the settings paragraphs of these 2 zones : BBFlotShow and BBFloatMain, and precise what supermod you're using.

Else, I will soon release the final version with both ships (Nelson and Rodney) corrected. I've found a way to add camo to Rodney without side effect. About stairs, I'm not skilled enough in 3D modelling, sorry.

Great news Kendras.

Do you like this ?

I wanted to add a white color instead of grey (where you see the little white stars), but it seems impossible. :(

Maybe like this ?

Now, I would like to add camo to the deck ...
