if someone can provide me with good quality pictures of the guns seen from different angles or, at best, with construction schemes, why not?

Gap, how many projects you "run" by now?
Here you go

Mind the polygon count, we need AI items not player models

A largely correct model of a 3inch-50 submarine wet mount is in SH4 but has in total >30 000 polygons

You mean how many projects carried me away?
I don't know exactly, but obviously more than I can handle

I couldn't ask for more

Roger that
How many polygons more or less would you like each gun to be?

I will have a look into it. Maype I can downsample it. If not, it will be a good template to start from

Check the 6 inch model I once sent

Most of the guns I did had 4 to 5 000 triangles. This seems to be good comprise between the level of detail and what SH3 can handle.

Those amazing guns... I almost forgot about them!

Time to download your files, hoping that the link is still working, and to return the favor

I remember seeing a model of the USS Texas having the two guns. It could be this model but I do not use Sketchup anaymore and so I cannot check.
