Alfa SSN (no TA yet--is this correct?)
Charlie-I and -II SSGN (no TA yet--is this correct?)

AFAIK yes :hmm: same as you I have never seen a source saying they had one.

Looking forward to seeing those beauties in the game :up:

Thanks Hitman. I'd rep you, but.... Neal?

Hummm just installed the 3.08 fix, and after reading the changelog it says that the Sierra II has been added (With the Akula I model provisionally) yet I fail to find it in the USNI reference :-?

One more request: Could you also add a better 3D model for the Akulas in the 3.09 version? Ain't it available from SCX?

Thanks

Any model work involving playables I have to defer to TLAM. There are details involved, at the minimum involving moving masts around, that I'm not all that familiar with so I'm not touching it.

?? :-?

I have the file: 3[1].08 hotfix.zip

and inside it is a Database folder which contains a changelog.txt file with following inside:

All i have to say is OOPS!

I'm not sure how that got there, but it's not accurate. sorry.

Just curious if you found a way to handle the problem of ships in a formation all crashing into each other upon reformation after breaking formation.

I've also seen ships from two different convoys plow into each other with no evation whatsoever by either side. It's as if formations can't see each other even with Collision Avoidence turned on for each ship.

I now no longer use formations at all in my missions because of this issue.
Is this a stock bug or something that can be fixed in the doctrine ?

Just a quick update

the 3.09 DB now includes:

Delta III
Gotland
Hotel
Le Triomphant
Mike
SS-N-21
Ming model
November
Romeo
Rubis model

Request Yankee 1 boat please, has anyone thought about making a exercise torpedo that would have like a 2 lbs warhead so you know that you hit it but to where it would cripple the target platform just a though.
You guys do great work and I think you:up:

Requests for platforms aren't really going to work. If we have the model, we'll make the platform, if we don't, then we won't.

You can see what models we have by refering to the SCX documentation; we have the DeepSix and Xabba models.

I don't see much point to the exercise torpedo since it could only be loaded on AI platforms. It would seem to me this would be best used as a playable platform's weapon, which as you probably know cannot be done without sacrificing an existing weapon.

I thought I seen a model for the Yankee some where just don't remember where. That was dumb about the exercise torpedo I wasn't thinking clearly sorry. :damn: It was Alfa tau with the coming Yankee sorry

Another update:

Swiftsure
Ula
Vastergotland
Virginia
Tigerfish model
Spearfish model
UGST model
SST4 model
SAET-60 model
TEST-71 model
Yu-4 model

Shipwreck model
Sea Eagle skin
GWS_26, 27 models
SA-N-3 Goblet, loaded on Kara DDG
Hauk PTG

Adding the Hauk was fun. It's pretty heavily armed for a little guy.... 6 Penguins, 2 HWT's, a gun, and mistral SAMs. =) Something's wrong with the prop animation though, so I had to disable it. :damn:

This may have already been posted, but how about the USS Freedom?

If you can provide a model, I can do the DB work for the MIW module. Get us a Fire Scout model and I can do an ASUW module. The ASW module may be a bit more complicated, but if it can be done it would also require a USV model.

If you don't have a model to give us for a platform you'd like to have added and we don't already have a model to use, please don't ask.
