Sorry if I missed this, but is there a separate thread for VS in general, maybe one that describes how it mods subs? These models look fantastic by the way, but I was wondering about how they handled the actual physics of subs.

Truly impressive. I need to choose between buying Virtual Sailor or donating to subsim. Your model is influencing me towards the first!

Your best bet would be to see if Pingjockey could hook you up since he's referring the model to his CO and XO!

These model exteriors would look great in Dangerous Waters. Do you happen to play that sim or have any plans to put them in there?

Bartolomeus

09-18-07, 04:27 AM

Yes, i play Dangerous Waters. But i have no plans to put the Texas in Dangerous Waters.

Perhaps I try it after the VS version and the USS Winston Churchill for VS.

Not to nag, but doesn't the pumpjet look a bit too big? Part of the advantage of a pumpjet is that it's more efficient, so the impeller can be considerably smaller diameter than an open prop on a given sub.

Thx for the note. :oops:

I will make a smaller diameter for the pumpjet.

I'll be looking forward to seeing this one in Virtual Sailor when you
are done with it. Which weps are you planning on loading onboard the sub
for it's first release? Torps, Missiles or Both?

Hi Christopher

I will release the Texas with both types of weapons (Mk48, Harpoon and the Tomahawk missile).

Hey Bart

Looking good! With you're talent I'm surprised you need my help with modeling humans.

I'm still working on it, however, I've sent you a friend request, and maybe if you catch me online sometime you can tell me what exactly you need.

Bartolomeus

04-09-09, 03:59 AM

Hey Chad

Ah yes, i have you added in my friends list. :DL

Iam looking forward to see the human model. I have it already tried. Unfortunately, I have it not managed. :cry:

Thx for your help Chad!
