Lol could it work?

[Jankowski]

Would it be possible to model such a large ship that it takes up half the atlantic ocean? that would be incredibly cool. also what about continent sized planes, or country sized u-boats? is there a limitation of ship size?

And maybe a mod where Admiral Dönitz screams 'Tis' a trap!':rotfl2:When Darth Churchill and his fleet of Tommie Troopers arrive in the Ostsee!
And a Single Player Mission Where Hans Olo and Bernard dive to the core of the Death Hood to torpedo it!

Um, I'm not sure how to break this to you, but YOU are the one working for the evil Empire. I mean, we're the ones with the storm troopers, right? :D

[Schwieger]

I actually have thought about making a submarine in the shape of an Imperial Star Destroyer before... Imagine having that as your U-Boat! :haha:

[Jankowski]

yeah, something like that.

I was wondering about the game limitations

[Schwieger]

lol... Imagine the look on the sonarmans face when this appears on the sonar:

:har::haha::har::haha:

I guess port raiding would be out of the question... unless you wanted to ground yourself.

I can see where a fleet of country-sized uboats would make blockading Britain a much simpler job... but how in the world would you ever get them out of your harbor to sail them there? :O:

Build them out at sea :yep:

I wonder how the hull holds up on re-entry?

Fleet? One of those and you'd win the war tomorrow! :sunny:

[Schwieger]

Forget re-entry, how would you get that into space in the first place? It is not very common to blast around 80,000 tons into orbit.:haha::haha:

I really hate to point out a fatal flaw in most of these space ships, but why are there almost no guns on the bottom when there is no up and down in space? Not the Spacebattleship Yamato though... that has guns on the underside I think...

The X^ series games (like X3TC/X3TR) actually address all the common sense problems like that (helps that many of the game developers actually play the game regularly and are the biggest mod contributors) having guns in up to 6 locations (front turrets, port/starboard turrets, aft, top and bottom turrets/fixed guns) that can give some ships a full 360 sphere of fire. Also having all the shipyards/factories that are already in space so you don't have to worry about that pesky gravity stuff helps :DL

On a completely unrelated note, I forgot the key combo for free cam inside the U-Boat :damn:

(lol I almost never use it)

We can't blockade England anymore; you sank her and made the cover of Zeit magazine afterward. :woot:


On a totally unrelated note: how many torpedoes would it take to sink Australia? :O:

Eh, I tried one of those already. They raised the national alert status to "we may have to cancel the barbie" for a couple hours, but that was it.

I'm all in for the plasma laser. This end of town could do with a renovation. :DL

Aye, the afterparty and skimpy negligee definitely made the memory stick. Where is Reece these days? :rotfl2:

I know what would do it: buy out all of their breweries and impose sanctions on alcohol imports. We'll near-beer them into surrendering. :up:

Although, if TarJak's tub is stocked up... :hmmm:

[frau kaleun]

Gee, thanks. That's certainly gonna raise some eyebrows among the newly Subsimmed. :O:

[Draka]

<Raises head out of sewers> Skimpy negligee? Just HOW skimpy? <Leers>

<lecher working on promotion to dirty old man - working on the OLD bit>

[Herr-Berbunch]

Pictures, or it never happened :haha:

I was gonna ask if you wanted pictures of England sinking, or the after party and skimpy negligee.

But then I realized what a pointless question that was. :O:

[Schwieger]

Would it be possible to model such a large ship that it takes up half the atlantic ocean? that would be incredibly cool. also what about continent sized planes, or country sized u-boats? is there a limitation of ship size?

I don't think that the game would be able to handle such large objects

[Madox58]

Oh yes it will.
:haha:

The size really means nothing.
It's only if you have a massive amount of polys that the Game cares.
So if you increase the size of any Ship?
It will display!
Of course the wakes and such will be off unless you re-do those also.
I did something like this long ago when I was just starting to learn.
:haha:

I imported the very first Blimp 3D model without scaleing down to SH3 sizes.
It was HUGE I tell you!
:har:

time to look into my Imperial Star Destroyer as a submarine mod :lol:

[krashkart]

Don't take it into the shallows... oh wait. Nothing in the game could hold a flame to that. :haha:

[Schwieger]

lol, you'd still have to worry about the shallows... about tearing your hull out :har::har::haha::haha:

If someone converted the Titan from SH4 that might stand a chance, but I don't know... Would be interesting, none the least :yep:

[Herr-Berbunch]

Maybe a surface Death Star would be more realistic...
