first - http://www.hmshood.com/history/construct/repair42.htm

that is the refit that was cancelled due to the declorartion of war on germany and some other countries.

second - http://www.hmshood.com/ship/index.htm

this gives you the statistics for the armorment and related systems such as radar
anti- aircraft
torpedoes
deck guns and more

Thanks these will really help me to make a refit for the Hood.

I got permission by Lurker to make the Hood compatible with Subron 50.

Do anyone recognise this ship?

It`s a refit of the Hood based on the KGV.

The HMS Renown and HMS Repulse are one class of battlecruiser. The HMS Hood is an Admiral class battlecruiser. Only the Hood was built. The superstructure is pretty much the same on the Queen Elizabeth, HMS Renown and the KGV.

well im hitting the sack, so ill see you tomorrow morning, about 5 mins ago i emailed a friend of mine, he's going to send me a few things about hoods cruise around the world. maybe we could implement this a none hostile war patrol or quick mission.

also i have found this. maybe we could try using some of the colours around the guns as these areas are always quite plane and also some of the more minor details. colours etc.

I once saw a model "what-if" version of "Hood" showing her after a refit circa 1943-1944; it was very convincing. The model did in fact look like other heavily modified WWI ships, like "Renown" & "Warspite", with a very big forward superstructure. It's really incredible how certain old warships changed over the years, like the "USS California", "Warspite", and "Furious".

is it possible to concert google sketchup's to sh4 at all, because i have uss hornet an aircraft carrier. i have been working on putting color on it for at least and hour or two.

i have sent an email to ask permission to use the model and have recieved an email, saying 'not my model, but if you add, or change something then it becomes your work'

but i dont know how to convert or how to add weapons or torpedo tubes, also it needs propellers. i do not know how to make it playable either.

iowa101 04-05-10 07:03 AM

these are the statistics for the uss hornet. the torpedoes are main weapon due to it being a carrier it has no deck guns

83 ft. 3 in.

Flightdeck Width:
127 ft.

Draft:
21 ft. 8 in.

if anyone could help get this ship into game with the option to play it througout the whole campaign. that would be brilliant
if anyone will help do this i can send the model to you for you to convert and get started on. also if it is possilbe add forward and aft torpedoe tubes
each.

forward: 2 tubes, with 30 reservers
aft: 2 tubes, with 30 reservers
