[WIP] Playable South Dakota & Montana
 
I am making both the South Dakota and Montana. Both are career playable. I know that the Montana has been made a couple of times before, but I have always wanted a Montana that looked more like how the Montana was supposed to look like.

If there`s any questions, just ask.

South Dakota Class:

Maybe you won`t have to wait very long couse the Montana is pretty much finished.

Fire Control System
 
I wish someone could build a realistic battleship fire control system interface for use in SH4. It would be great to have a real battleship simulator with these gorgeous SH4 graphics/textures.....

These ships are ready for download in post #1.

Karle94 06-06-10 04:49 PM
Corrected a texture bug. I would advice those that already have downloaded this mod to download the new version.

kiwi_2005 06-06-10 09:37 PM
Downloading now, thanks! :yeah:

When folks make ships such as these, do they have interiors at all?

rein1705 06-07-10 11:46 PM
nope, too much work. Just fleet boat interiors.

( the ' is a turret over the . which is another turret 1 stage lower ) and if im not mistaken you set 5 turret this way '. '.-

so let me quote from wikipedia as in the secondary armement ( the dual 5" im talking about ) :
Because South Dakota was built as a fleet flagship, the extra command and control space needed for these duties necessitated that the secondary battery be limited to sixteen 5-in (127 mm) 38 caliber Mark 12 guns in eight Mark 28 Mod 0 dual mounts, four on either side of the superstructure.

Its was the USS massachusetts, USS Alabama and USS indiana which had 5 turret, but those where late version, the USS South Dakota was basicly made for Flagship operation so needed space for their control that why only 4 turret :) but correct me if im wrong :) no personnal harm intend :P

or if you want to keep 5 turret youll have to compact them a bit :P
here 1 linik to picture of the USS massachusetts secondary armement :
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...28BB-59%29.jpg
and one of the indiana:
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...28BB-58%29.jpg

but if you cant make them more compact its nto a big deal, i dotn want too look like a nerd knowing everything, and i dont know how to mod, its was onyl some fact i was saying there :)

Actually, the entire ship is modelled after the Massachusets.

Do you have any mods that will change the textures of the stock 16 inch guns? if so run them before this mod.

rada660 06-11-10 06:01 PM
here in order the mod i normally use right now :
TMO 1.9
Poul-sound ( for better sound )
EAX ( patch to poul-sound )
new ship + yamato AA fix
Shell splash mod ( bigger splash for bigger shell )
South dakota ( or what ever the ship mod i use )

yet its not only happen to the south dakota, its was happening to Iowa and north carolina and then samethnig for your other ship the montana
