A note on weapons,,found this out in sh3 s-boote after a armed trawler handed me my butt and killed my watch officer, I was quite fond of him, and turned my boat into swiss cheese, but anyway to get to the point what are you going to use as deckguns to fire on ships,, On pt yubba 109 there is the 40's as deck guns, they can light up a jap destroyer,,but I chose a twin 40 in the aft postion to rid the 40 on the bow.

I'm thinking, mod the 40mm to do the 37 mm.:hmmm:

We still need the twin .50 cal guns though for the gun tubs.

Just a little post to remind everyone that I didn't forget this project. It has some cool potential. And therefore it would be really too bad not to bring it to completion. :up:
Hey Jeff, now THAT is some great news ! :salute:
Looks like the real work is about to start soon. http://imageshack.us/a/img853/6779/29796004.gif

Are we there yet, any work being done on the campaign, is there away to get the elco boat that has been already built into the campaign the pt yubba 109 is ready but I have no clue how to make work in a campaign I'm afraid that it is beyond me, how about the interior,, I mention static pictures that where in the virtual tours that gave a 360 degree look any way to incorperate that into the game. yubba only idea man now.:nope: or only grasping for staws

I haven't forgotten nor given up on this project!
Real life has had me travelling more then I expected and taken all of my time!
:nope:

It's great that business is good after years of toughing it out. I needed that in a very bad way!
I'm only now getting to a point where I can start working on things again.
It's slow, I admit. But then again? It's not like we have a large Team doing anything.

Heck! We almost don't have a small Team doing anything!
(Does 2 people count as a small Team?)
:hmmm:

:salute: Your job comes first, yubba go sit in tree stand wait for stupid deer, but first yubba go mess with Sailor Steves head..

I looked out my back door and saw 12 Deer in the back yard less then 150 feet away.
:D

I don't need no tree stands. But then again I don't eat Deer.
(Yet!)

Matter of fact had a deer trip the side lights a little doe in the distance, I was pulling the rifle out of the back seat of the car,,lucky for her I wasn't hungry,,,learned a new way to cook deer no matter what cut or roast put it a cast iron kettle and steam the piss out of it the longer you cook it the tender it gets and it makes a tastey stew. years back I had 4 deer standing by my car the first day of deer season I had to shew them away so I could go deer hunting.

Where I live? Deer are as common as mice!
I counted over 150 in fields just a half mile from my home one day!
That was 2 herds.
Turkey also run in huge groups here also!

...small team plus a manager:haha::shifty::dead:.

On a side note, there is an interest in this project higher up on the PT-boat foodchain. I just wish I had the money to fly you (privateer) out here to show me everything you know about modding the files. Not the graphic stuff, the technical side. And you could spend some quality time "on the boat":D (although right now is a bad time, because we're out of the water atm)

I do have a crazy, hair-brained idea how to make that happen, but I'd have to sell that idea, which I don't think will happen.

So that's 3 plus interested persons.
:D

I have bid several jobs out your way hopeing to combine makeing money with a visit.
:03:

Much like visiting the U-505.
I made money on a job and was close enuff to visit at low cost to myself.
:haha:

I do have all the latest 3D files I've done plus Alex's work.
I work a bit differently then Alex, and look at the files from a 'lest verts' point of view.
So I need to adjust between his work and mine.
That's the delay aside from actual real time right now.

I'd be interested in your idea.
I have an idea of my own and perhaps we could combine them to come up with one that has less chance of failure.
:har:

PM me on that subject.

One area I have little (O.K. NO) knowledge of is the UPC stuff.
That's what I've been watching to see if someone would step in with assistance offers.
I check everything by Ducimus myself.
But for some reason? I'm lost right off the freaking bat!
Some of us are good at one thing but REALLY bad at the other. (Well, I am anyway!)

Is there any way to get the elco boat pt 109 that is already built playable in a campaign, I tried everything it is beyond my my ablilities, and my spelling. I did make some ambush missions in mission builder but they went down with the box when it crashed into the blue screen of death.sorry that I can't be of anymore help.

A campaign would be really cool, but I don't know how to do it. I need to jar my memory on building missions. There has to be a good tutorial on mission building out there.:hmm2:

Well if you get a dozen or so missions built to go with the down load of the boat, it would be a start, I think we got a enough talent in the subsim community that some folk could come up with some pretty interesting and entertaining missions, this was a contest to start with maybe the best missions submitted could get in the e- nish- ial down load with their name tacked to it.

Mmmmmmm ... PT B:arrgh!:oat!

Has a working PT Boat happened yet? just re found this thread and hope to see some progress. thanks lads.

There is an elco Pt 109 in the download section, I'm sorry that I don't have the link at the moment, I gave privateer the files I had on it to make it fully functional, may be when we clear some polictical hurdles, about modding it should be in here for down load, but as it stands it is a nice mod it just needs a little work. If I got it too work you shouldn't have any trouble at the moment I can't remember what I did.

OK i got that one, thanks , the Alpha, i will work on it and see what i can do. thanks a lot.
