i need to know how to get her in game as a full career ship, and also single missions and stuff.

Also a damage model will need to be done, but im inexperienced in such things.
the model is obj format.

this is a list of what i want to accomplish.

.Career fully playable
.Single missions
.Damage model
.Modern guns
.Bridge cam, and also Hanger deck Cam (If possible)
.Good Ammo Supplies
.Also as you can see the carrier needs some well deserved minor details.
This is a link to the side view of a carrier and hopefully you can get some great detail ideas from it.

If anyone can help me accomplish all of this then hopefully we'll have a good carrier in game in no time.

take a look at the ai_modern_vessels mod. a very similar modern carrier, nimitz-class, and several aircrafts are included.

yes but that's Ai i want this as a playable ship, unless you mean it tells you how to add it and stuff, then that would be fine but i'd rather it be playble.

Most of the knowledge you need is known by the TSWSM team (look in the ATO mods forum) .... and actually much of it by me ...... however the TSWSM is focussed on WWII ..... if you want to learn how to achieve the above ... then maybe join the TSWSM and we can scratch each others backs ????

I can teach you how to damage model and do some rather interesting things with the damage model. I think we were also looking at a way to make it look like a carrier had launched planes ... but can't be sure (not my area of expertise).

Take a look at our thread in ATO mods ......

thank you very much.

i would love to join, if it was only as a learner lol, it would suit me.

i want to be able to contribute, and so i guess i will take a look at what you guys are doing over there.

also would you think the view inside a hanger deck would be good or not, i'd like to show the inside of a carrier if possible.

hello fellow sailor of Subsim i have a model here thats just about ready to import, but before that i have to get it in.

the vertices amount = 128908

is there a way to get this into game without damaging the model. by which i mean deleting half of it.

i can delete a few things but it might not work the way i want it to. can you please help a fellow captn out and give me as many possible solutions to this
small problem.

Hi guys i have a relatively small update for you

The Model is going through the process of UV mapping for the textures, Karl94 and Privateer have been helping me a lot over the last day or two.

the model still needs fine details, and a texture which i'll apply after Karl94 has had ago a UV Mapping a plain Texture onto the model.

After which i'll try to do my best and create and add the final texture.



:Please note the number at the top is different but all we want is the texture

The USS - Theodore Roosevelt - CVN - 71 will be career playable, it's armament will be:

Guns

There are four Raytheon / General Dynamics 20mm Phalanx six-barrelled Mk 15 with a range of 1.5km

Missiles

three Raytheon GMLS mk29 eight-cell launchers for Nato Sea Sparrow surface-to-air missiles. Sea Sparrow has a range of 14.5km and semi-active radar terminal guidance.



Countermeasures

Decoys include four Sippican SRBOC (super rapid bloom off-board chaff) six-barrelled mk36 decoy launchers, SSTDS torpedo defence system and AN/SLQ-25 Nixie torpedo countermeasures system

The Raytheon AN/SLQ-32(V) electronic warfare system

Sensors

Air search radars include the ITT SPS-48E 3-D, operating at E/F-band; Raytheon SPS49(V)5, C/D-band; and Raytheon mk23 TAS, D-band. Surface search radar is the Northrop Grumman Norden Systems SPS-67V, operating at G-band.

Propulsion

The nuclear-powered carrier has two General Electric pressurised water reactors driving four turbines of 260,000hp (194MW) and four shafts. There are four emergency diesels of 10,720hp (8MW).

This might be a little overly optimistic but i intend to be as accurate as possible with it.

Also Ivank is working a full and fruitful career for the mods which will take us to see the entire war. And i will be making several challenging single missions in which to push the ship to her limits and back again.

Hopefully the mod will have a few more supporters, and with them new additions to add.

Anyone wanting to help is welcome to join
