Ship Models - request/development

[Jimbuna]

WOW :o ...what a beauty :rock:

[Sailor Steve]

It's d'lovely.:sunny:

[iambecomelife]

Here's a tanker for my mod; it's based on various classes designed by Scandinavian and Japanese companies. It has a Liberty Ship hull. The masts contain parts from the NPTR by Sergbuto, T-2, and C-2. There are pictures of a similar tanker on the "Library of All Ship Models" thread.

Now we need British 8-inch turret as well.

[Tuddley3]

Concerning damage/fire effects, I see you have considered them - thats all I wanted to know!

I don't know if the waterjets could be made in SH3 could they. Anyways, I am not thinking of building the fireboats, just wondered if someone would like to. I don't have the means to make ships, or the know how. This would be strictly eye candy.

[Tuddley3]

Heres an interesting site

Tones of ship pics there

Hmm, I see many hours ahead of making Intro/Loading Screens here. Excellent site. GIMP is going to be used and abused .

Know of any sites like this for Battleships ?

[Vikinger]

I would like to request if some could make Minesweepers.

They come in different sizes and looked a bit like flower corvettes but was smaller ship whit less displacements. They where used a lot as escrts in convoys.

Here is a link to the canadians ship listing.

Check the link on the site Mine countermeasure ships/convoy escorts.

For some tip how they looked like.

thx.

guys.. i want to ask if theres a clan that actually build shipmods..
cuz im buizy with 4 3d rendering programs where u can skin till your eyes pop out
and i want to learn more about this stuff..
maybe someone wants to invite me to their clan...
post me an personal message..
soon ull see a topic on the prosess of my shark boat..

kunning to the ham * out*:arrgh!:

[Boris]

There's no shipbuilding "clan" per se. We have some of our own in the GWX team, Everyone else is pretty much a one-man show. Why don't you post some of what you can do here, SH3 can always use more ships.
See the first post of the library of all ship mods for whats already been done.

[Tuddley3]

Oh, BBW, do you know if it is possible to download the Big Ship Photo Album to HD ?

Hi,

I just begun modelling, started over a week ago with Wings3d.
I am working at two projects at the moment.

Both still gonna need along time till finished, because i am doing everything for the first time.
I'll let you know when they are ready.
Diving_Duck is helping me alot with all the work and when everything works ok, we can bring you the buoys lighted.

New models are always welcome
Good luck with your projects :up:

[Boris]

Real nice Pontius, Buoys are something I really miss in SH3. It was discussed putting buoys in GWX, but it was too late for release. Those Buoys would be great for an update.

Wish I could help but I've never modded a submarine before. You may want to try asking Sansal or Sergbuto for help - I think they've both worked with submarines.

There is already a kitbash of one available from Jack_410 - it is the French Bourassque class, but it is basically identical.:yep:

[iambecomelife]

iambecomelife, any idea when your merchant mod pack is going to come out?? I'm hanging out for some more targets!

Not much longer (seriously, I promise!) Right now it's mainly a matter or replacing obsolete, cruder-looking ships with more accurate models. I'm just about satisfied with the number of tanker classes - it helps that other modders have already produced several tankers themselves. After I replace the old models I need a few more liners and then it's just about ready for the pre-release damage modeling alterations & "quality control".

Burza

[AG124]

Yes, you're right - that class hasn't been modeled yet. It's been awhile since I've thought much about Polish DDs.:doh: Although when I said that they were identical, I meant the Bourassque and Wicher - I was still wrong in assuming that the Grom was the sister of the Wicher though.

As far as I know, the Grom class is not a WIP either. Maybe an idea for someone on this forum.:hmm:

If you decide upon a BB, I would prefer to see you work on the French Bretagne class, or possibly the Richelieu class if you feel like it.:o If you want to do an Italian BB, I would suggest the Andrea Doria class over the Conte de Cavour class. All important German ones have already been included (there are more important ships to work on than hypothetical Z Plan ships and Versailles Treaty pre-Dreadnoughts, IMO - although I do like Z Plan ships:lol:).

If you decide upon an ocean liner, I would personally like to see the Wilhelm Guslov class, although most people would prefer to have an Allied liner to torpedo. If you decide to go with an Allied one, then either a French one or a US one would be great (although a French liner probably wouldn't see too much action).

:-? Weren't they scuttled in November of '42 after lying at Toulon since the UK attacked them after the fall of France?

I would choose the Richelieu class, as the Richelieu herself saw extensive actions with Allied forces throughout the war (and the Jean Bart did manage to fire on the USS Massachusettes before being knocked out of action). Also, in regards to the Bretagne class, the Lorraine served with the Free French, although the Bretagne was destroyed by the UK and the Provence was scuttled at Toulon in 1940 and 1942, respectively.

The only other class of French BBs was the Courbet class, and only two of them were left in service by WWII. The France had been lost through grounding in the early 1920s, and the Jean Bart had been renamed Ocean and decommissioned as an immobile hulk to be seized and sunk as a target by the Germans. Of the two that survived, I believe that the Paris served only as an accomodation ship for the Free French, and the Courbet ended up as a blockship at Normandy.:o

Forget the Normandie, she didn't have much sailing after France fell. They were converting her into a troopship in New York when she was set alight in and accident. They tried to put her out, but caused her to capsize when they made her top heavy pumping water onboard to fight the fire.

She was salvaged, but the damage was to great and she was scrapped. A sad loss of a great liner.

[turnerg]

How about the Texas and New York? they were doing alot of convoy escort early on in the war, plus bombardment at normandy.... not to mention we've got PLENTY of reference on the texas from previous sub club event :p

[AG124]

How about the Texas and New York?
It is interesting to note at this point that it was a request for one of these two ships that started this great and epic thread in the first place.:o

I'd love to get some additional ships added to this sim, especially more merchants and maybe a US PT boat.


How about some American Battleships (Texas) anyone???


I've DL'ed Serbugto's wonderful additions but I'm stuck wanting more, bitten by the modding bug.

Anyone working on some additional ships?

:hmm:

I suppose it is ironic at this point that after all the ship building that has occurred here, the original 'mod request for more ship types' has never been addressed.:cool:

I have line drawings for all of those ships (Wilhelm Gustloff, Ile de France, Q Elizabeth, Normandie, Rex, Conte di Savoia) from a WWII-era ID book. Let me know if you want them.

[UBOAT234]

But I would say that thinking about French BBs the Straßbourg and Dunkerque are the first ones that should be modelled as they were the ones used the most thourout WWII.
:-? Weren't they scuttled in November of '42 after lying at Toulon since the UK attacked them after the fall of France?

I would choose the Richelieu class, as the Richelieu herself saw extensive actions with Allied forces throughout the war (and the Jean Bart did manage to fire on the USS Massachusettes before being knocked out of action). Also, in regards to the Bretagne class, the Lorraine served with the Free French, although the Bretagne was destroyed by the UK and the Provence was scuttled at Toulon in 1940 and 1942, respectively.

The only other class of French BBs was the Courbet class, and only two of them were left in service by WWII. The France had been lost through grounding in the early 1920s, and the Jean Bart had been renamed Ocean and decommissioned as an immobile hulk to be seized and sunk as a target by the Germans. Of the two that survived, I believe that the Paris served only as an accomodation ship for the Free French, and the Courbet ended up as a blockship at Normandy.:o

Start work for Richelieu...
Good idea AG! :up:

[oRGy]

Can I make a request?

It's not for a ship per se. It's more, that if modellers have made a completely new ship (i.e., not an SH3 kitbash or derivative: the Queen Mary above is a good example), then they might want to make it available to the folks over at www.dangerdeep.net (http://www.dangerdeep.net) as well, as they're trying to make an open-source subsim and could probably do with more art assets.

Cheers.

[AG124]

Yes, that would be a good idea. Of course, I can't send them anything, as all of my released and WIP ships are kitbashes, and thus based on Ubisoft property. But for those who can do so, I think you get to pick your own terms of release (I think this is true for artwork as well) and of course, you would get credit.:yep:

Sergbuto, didn't you once say that you had models of the Argus, Eagle, and Hermes that you didn't think had enough polys for SHIII? Rather than never seeing them in a game, why don't you contact the dev team at DftD and see if they would like them? It is non-profit open source, and I'm sure they would give you the details of the terms of release.

EDIT - I think they have said that they already have way too much art, but they are looking for more 3d models. They need developers to implement this stuff more than anything else though.

Those models will not be suitable for DftD either. They are on the level of SH2, maybe worse.

[UBOAT234]

Anyone can help me? ...
During the planning of French Richelieu have a problem for the guns.

I think the choice of:

-For quadruple 380mm, I put the 14 inch quadruple
-For triple 152mm, I put the 6 inch triple
-For double 100mm, I put the 4 inch double
-For single 20mm, I put single 20mm

I would avoid confusion with the guns dat...

And have a question: it did not have Hedgehogs or Depth Charges?

What do you think?

[Sailor Steve]

Battleships did not carry ASW equipment or weapons. That's why they always had destroyers with them. If torpedoes were spotted, and the battleship was lucky enough not to get hit, they weren't about to risk a ship of that importance by trying to kill a submarine. They ran, and let the little guys do their job.

:o Oh. Well, maybe someone will figure out how to add new ships to Aces of the Deep someday...:cool: :lol: Just kidding.:know:

But just keep the project in mind, and if you come across an old model on your HDD someday that you think might be suitable, don't hesitate to bring up the subject again.:yep:

[bigboywooly]

:hmm:
Maybe the 43 version then
That served with the home fleet till mid 44 then the far east fleet till war end

The earlier one will be sat in port most of the time

The biggest in stock guns is a 14 inch quad
That will do
Even GWX doesnt have a 15 inch quad :hmm:

Job for Ref
:rotfl:

Of course you can always do 2 versions
one early and 1 late
If its only the catapult to add\remove etc

[Jimbuna]

The 43 version was the 'workhorse' :yep: :arrgh!:

Have more confidence in yourself - The "Furious" model you posted looked very nice. I'm a big fan of the WWI and interwar-era carriers as opposed to the more modern ones that are ingame - it would be wonderful to see those three flattops.

[Hunter]

I can't find a way to contact Gerome_73. That is why I am posting it here.
I was viewing Gerome's British heavy cruiser in my museum, and I belive, that she is a little bit bigger than SH3 scale is. Standard guns used with this model looks too small for it. Could it be fixed somehow? Anyway, it is a perfect midel for this perfect game.

I agree completely - I love that HMS Furious model and would like very much for it to be released to the SHIII community.:cry: The quality looks fine to me, and with a better looking skin, it might even look better.

Of course, from what I understand, the other three are much, much lower quality.:huh:

Resolved problem with guns.

I have make and added new: 15InchQuadrupleT. Rework for SH3 and GWX.
Modified: guns.dat, guns.sim, guns.zon. It work and function.
In the next few days it navigates also the Richelieu.

It is not a matter of confidence, it is a matter of realistic estimate/evaluation of the model quality. BTW, the Furious 3D model were not made by me.

that perhaps we can find a way to shift SH3 models and SH4 models back and forth from on game to the other.

[AG124]

that perhaps we can find a way to shift SH3 models and SH4 models back and forth from on game to the other.

I don't think that would really work, since SHIV models will have a far higher poly count, and will have a much more complicated damage model.

[bigboywooly]

Well it has to be worth a go
Even poly reducing and damage modelling is possible

[AG124]

For some reason, I bet it would be easier to import SHIII models (with upgraded damage models) into SHIV, than to import SHIV models into SHIII. :hmm: Anyway, I'm sure there will be someone who will be interested in doing it if someone wants the models badly enough.:cool:

actually he does have a bit of a point the Tclass ive modelled is a bit of a hybrid between the first and second/third group (the first goup looked bent up) ill fix it so its based on the later models with the 'straight' deck.
Also the stern tubes (amid ships) need re-doing too, as I can make them look more accurate and lower the poly count at the same time.

Wow, he outdid himself again. :up: It's amazing how the RN got rid of the ship's old, WWI-ish appearance and gave her a modern-looking profile. I heard that all the three stack cruisers were supposed to look like this - only the British ran out of money (and time) prior to 1939, so the interwar reconstructions were cancelled with only London complete...

:oops: I can't wait!! :D

[UBOAT234]

Hi,

Is a lot interesting to construct with the construction plans.
But the detail is a lot important in order to make good job.
In the first place it must be acceptable and most possible close to the real model, also in the behavior in the game.
In order to make this it is necessary patience...
It has demanded much search and much time. I have dedicated under consideration of the other existing models. The prices of these models are high and not possible for my availability. Therefore I have decided to construct it entire alone. He is truly arduous for me, that I had not never constructed nothing of the sort. However the job is to good point. The model in SH3 .dat, .sim, and .zon is ready. I am creating the last finishes. But some problem remains still on the artillery... (I hope to resolve).

Work in progress:

Continuous to hope that the demands for the modders come listened and received from the developers.
Therefore it comes supplied a development instrument that can allow to render also SH4 famous as it has been for SH3. A small aid in more would be sufficente beyond to the editor of missions.
I have known much people in net, than she is taken care of simulation and I have been able to see that who has Silent Hunter, has also in curriculum FSX and constructs flight models… It would be truly a beautiful step.
This sure would render, for the interest still more high, a greater participation to the game and to the sales.

We have good pics taken by none other than Horsa, which i still have on a cd here, and we toured the entire ship at the 2nd international subclub meeting. Texas escorted convoys, bombarded for d-day, had a duel with the cherbourg batteries(where she had her only combat fatality, the helmsman) and eventually bombarded Iwo Jima and Okinawa..... so she was everywhere. She'd be perfect for sh4/sh3. just be aware, she has 5 turrets, 2 bow, one mid, and 2 stern. in the sketch, the 3rd turret is covered be the airplane launcher.

Im a WW2 History buff and i was talking to some vets who were telling me stories that were awesome.

They were saying how nice the landing crafts were and how they could take a beating in the weather. They were also telling me how they would train with them, practice mock beach landings, how they would start off a few miles off shore and travel towards the beach. They also told me that tons of planes and PT boats were always around, looking for German U boats, pretty interesting stuff.

So i looked at the Completed Ship library and i notcied that someone was designing the Landing crafts and i was wondering hows that going. And also if any other types of landing crafts are being designed? My dad was in the navy and he was saying how they would use WW2 landing crafts, the large ones as barges and to move things around ports. He also said they used the smaller ones, as repair crafts and to transport crew to and from the ships.

Also who would i talk to about getting torpedos on planes??

Serg was building some LC's IIRC

Torpedos on aircraft was being worked on by Serg\Anvart and Ref as well I think

If I can dare ask, a British "Insect" class river gunboat (such as Aphis, Ladybird, Cricket, etc) would be very nice. Some of them saw service in the Mediterranean and were also used for convoy escort.

NO....the Olympic did not serve in WW2...she Olympic was withdrawn from service in 1935 and sold to Sir John Jarvis for £100,000 to be partially demolished at Jarrow (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jarrow) providing work for the region. In 1937 Olympic's hull was towed to Inverkeithing (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverkeithing) to TW Ward's yard for final demolition.

I am a member of the Titanic Historial Society, here in Missouri..The Titanic Museum in Branson, Missouri, USA, has a first class cabin from the Olympic served as an example of that class of vessel's interior quarters. A replica of the Grand staircase in the Titanic is built at this museum as well as many other artefacts recovered from the Titanic wreckage.

The Olympic survived until WW2? Every book I've read on the Titanic stated that the Olympic was scrapped in the UK in 1936. I hope not, as she would make an interesting troopship. :o

PS - Whatever happened to the Mauratania? (That might not be spelled correctly... :-? ) Another interesting troopship for SH3 someday, if she survived that long.

Is this where I can request something? I would like to request a Clipper ship, or some sort od Tall ship.

Kind of like this-

It would have been nice, starting a mission at Kiel, to see the Gorch Fock (http://www.gorchfock.de/) in her home port... But I wonder if it is technically possible even for one of our best modders on here to modelize this kind of ship...

:hmm:

[Boris]

Sure it's possible, theres smaller sail ships already, and a bigger one would work too i should think.
We just need an able modder willing to take on the task.

Small sail ships look good... But do you really think we'll see someday a large sail moving with the wind ? :huh:
I was thinking about the animation of sails...

Edit : well, it may be possible, considering there is an animation for the flag... But hard to do.

[Jimbuna]

Highly unlikely you'll see that (sails moving) in GWX v1.04 :nope:

But my question is : will we ever see moving sails of this size ? :hmm:

Does anyone remember who created the junks & schooners for the GWX mod? It would be easy for them to use an existing sailing ship as the basis for a larger one. I wouldn't mind seeing new sailing vessels myself, especially a trawler or cargo ship with combined sail/steam power.

[GoldenEagle8]

But do you really think we'll see someday a large sail moving with the wind ? :huh:

Well, larger Clipper Ships, and such eventually got what I think is called a jig sail, or something like that that allowed to sail what ever way. The only thing was, it sailed slowly going against the wind and quickly with the wind, and about half when going perpendicular with the wind. I think. So, I don't think that would be a big deal.

[GerritJ9]

At least you're getting somewhere, Golden Eagle- I am trying to modify SH3's "C&D" class destroyer into a Dutch "Admiralen" class destroyer (they were both based on HMS "Ambuscade", but there are considerable detail differences), but am getting nowhere:cry:. I'm not even getting the model to open!

Use Pack3d to extract all the objects

http://files.filefront.com/P3dAllVersion7z/;6422266;;/fileinfo.html

Then you can view in Wings or 3ds max or whatever

Very nice
Your best bet may be to alter the hull of an existing ship
Import your new sails etc to replace deck objects of that existing model
Importing a complete new model is difficult at best

Yeah, that was Ref

[GerritJ9]

Bigboywooly- I already tried that- I get a nice folder labelled "3d" with lots of OBJ files when I extract the dat file with Pack3D, but neither 3DS Max 7 nor Wings3D will open them. Obviously I'm doing something wrong, but I haven't been able to figure out what.

[GerritJ9]

Thanks for the tip, bigboywooly- I can now open the flies. What programmes do I need to open the CFG, DSD, EQP, SIM, SNS, VAL and ZON files? I assume that these (or at least some of them) contain data that will need to be altered; the torpedo tube banks were triple rather than quadruple, the A.A. armament differed considerably etc etc.
Sorry for asking so many questions, but I will probably be asking a lot more before this project is finished- I am new at this stuff though I do have some experience with Autocad.

I use notepad to open the cfg\eqp and sns
And a hexeditor to open the others

Guns\Tubes etc will be in the eqp file
You can either look at other ships cfgs to get the link names to different weapons or open the Guns.dat ( pack3d ) in the Library folder and that will show all available weapons

[GerritJ9]

Thanks for the help/advice, bigboywooly. I have started to modify the CFG and EQP files. End date on the "C&D"class is 19451231 for much of the equipment, but since none of the "Admiralen" class survived beyond the fall of Java (i.e. 08/03/1942) I presume that I should use 19420308 rather than 19451231 for the relevant gear?
The SNS file seems to contain various asdic/radar versions, but as none of the "Admiralen" class had radar I presume these can be deleted.
The other files (DSD, SIM, VAL and ZON) are beyond me at the moment so I'll leave them alone for now.

The sole survivor (sort of) of the "Admiralen" was the "Banckert"- she was, like USS "Stewart", scuttled at Soerabaja in March 1942 and salvaged by the IJN, who intended to restore her to service. Unlike "Stewart", however, she was never used operationally by the Japanese and was found at Soerabaja after Japan's surrender. This drawing would seem to be what she would have looked like in IJN service: http://www.the-blueprints.com/modules/bpview/bpview.php?nr=8172
"Banckert"was finally expended as a target in Madoera Strait in 1949.

[bigboywooly]

Just NULL the entries you dont want used in the SNS
Yes you can end the eqp at that date
Remember to end the ship in the cfg on the same date also

Good luck :up:

We have seen so many Pictures of Iambecomelife´s nice Merchants but only the M35B was released !

Nice one but i think that´s not a skin, thats a 3D-Modell !

If you want realise this only by a skin, i think you need over 100 Hours to make this !

So where do we talking about ?

Hehe,

you are funny !

I think you want to integrate them into GWX1.04.

The Ships are good and normaly drivin, havent seen any Bug but they should have more destructions and explosions when you hit them with a Deckgun.
But this should not be a Problem for the GWX-Team ....... they always do a great job.
