While we're on the subject of rotating thingies - aren't the radars on the top of the German cap ships supposed to rotate aswell (I mean continuously) ? Can this be done ?

um yer they do rotate but not continuously thats if your talking about the fumO 30 ?????

cause they dont rotate continuously

LOL I like your sig!

I would invite you but if you have no skillz it is kinda pointless, no offense.

Sounds good to me!

UPDATE:
I had another virus, so I lost everything on my computer. So when I get around to re-installing everything, could everyone on TSWSMT send me there work?

SH427: I just read about Fall of the Rising Sun Mod-Pack, and it has a lot of the ships I send you to be converted! So latter I will ask them for premission to use them(help you with the work load!)

Ivan - while you're at it (requesting permission), suggest you contact Ops Monsoon mod also (has Warpsite, renown, repulse etc.) ?

I don't think major warships had submarine radars like the FuMO30

anyway, it would be a lot of work to make different radar files for every possible type of radar. alternatively we could use submarine radars, make them invisible (eg. by placing them inside the tower) and use a rotating 3d model inside the main dat file. But this way the radar won't stop if you stop scanning, it'll keep rotating as mickey117 pointed out.

cause ive seen a movie on youtube and it shows the actual bridge well idn if its accurate but its pretty close to what i think it would be

do you know the url to that movie? or how you found it? If it clearly shows the bridge I might just go make one.

umm its a movie called otoko tachi no yamoto but on youtube is called
YAMATO - World's Largest & Greatest Battleship Ever Built and the url is

mickey117 · 03-10-09, 02:49 AM

umm its not that clear but it gives you an idea for what to do it took me bout and hour to find cause all the movies on it are just those ones where its getting attacked so yer hope it helps

Afaik FuMO30 was used on submarines only. navweaps.com confirms this, so do a few other sites I searched. Major warships and their range finders used other radar types.
BTW is there any chance you might mean Gneisenau?

tater · 03-11-09, 03:38 PM

A couple things. One, the IJN radars can rotate. I've done that, and they do in RSRDC now (my Real IJN mod is included in RSRDC). The best way to add radars is with a Y node so that they can appear only when they did in RL, instead of having late war bedsprings on an early war ship

Two, I love what you did with the gun director. I made directors randomly rotate for RIJN, but your solution is better. An idea; make a dummy shell for it to shoot.

This is for sure gonna go in RIJN 2.0

It is. I have already tested such things for myself and it works. But I wonder if you see the difference on a shell flying 800 m/s.
Besides, I do not know what impact it'll have on FPS when you're engaged in a big battle with lots of shells flying.

i supose your right but it's still worth a shot just to test it cause it would look awesome to have like an 18.1 inch from the yamoto flying at a destoyer it would make the best screen shots

All right then, you want something like this?

I must say it is indeed very impressive to see those massive shells heading for a small fletcher

I was wondering if this is going be a separate mod, the shells instead of a fireball when ships fire.
