Default US NAVY HEAVY CRUISERS WWII

With all respects to the community I'm glad to propose a pack of US Navy Heavy Cruisers WWII for Silent Hunter 3 which have been converted from the excellent FOTRS 2.0 mod. It contains three units.

First two ones (CA Pensacola & CA Portland) were already released in December 2016 but some mistakes were found by the community's members. The units were fixed and now their updated variants are released together with newly converted third unit - CA New Orleans.









Special thanks to Rockin Robbins, who give me permission to release ships from FOTRS 2.0 for Silent Hunter 3 after their conversion.
Let me to express thanks to AOTD/MadMax and the excellent FOTRS team for original model of the ship and to Isinchievici and Buc-bgpatrascu for USN guns library.

Also special thanks to the Frog for his excellent CA Northampton model which was used as basic for CA Portland, guns models from USN guns library and also for his excellent textures for the ships and for the guns.

For GWX users: CA New Orleans uses the same class name and folder name as it is in GWX in order to replace the old one without any additional changes.

The damage texture applied when a shell from a ship hits the hull is the wrong one, it's very ugly :



To solve this, open NCA_Tuscaloosa.val, and in VisualDamage node, replace Expl_mask05.tga by Expl_mask01_a.tga (for the MaskTextureName).

At least for me who doesn't have this Expl_mask05.tga in my files.

Thank You, dear Kendras. I'll test it at home and revert with fix.
It's surprise for me. I arranged many missions with artillery battles between varios cruisers to test them before release. I use modpack basis GWX 3.0. What supermod do You use?

No supermod currently installed, but I've checked in my GWX files : there is no Expl_mask05.tga in data/Misc folder. Maybe you have one ?

Most probably yes. I'll check today when I'd be at home.
I'll share it if I have it of course. But in any case thank You very much for Your testings.
