Very nice, good job :yeah:

Cool beans! :up:

I'd like to publish it, but first I need to get my desired playable Gearing-Class done. Keeps crashing all the time :/\\!!

Here is some progress on her, issue:

want to add the imperial seel at her bow, but the texture remains black ingame :/\\!! what can I do? AO texture has been tried, but didn't work either...

Timefor an Update...
 

Hey folks,
after releasing my FletherII-Mod, I turned back to this "special" Version of the Takao/Maya for german career. Well let's say, I've had some sort of a "flow" here...:doh:

please excuse the crapps pics. I stll cannot produce real screenshots (black with print and white with ctrl F11), so I have to use my cellphone :oops:

The ship is supposed to have a carmouflage (brown and green based on a blueish grey)

:subsim:

Update
 

Tested it on my new PC(win10), here I can make proper Screenies

so here is another update with lots of new details:

Skipped making a carmo texture, it just looked crappy :/ but added a new (proper) fire control diractor on top of the superstructure

:D

did you get the ship to air rockets from madmax ? I was lloking for them too as the IJN carriers had them in late 1944..

Do they blow up at some height like AA ?

regards

keltos

and : it looks really good ! though I'm more of a sub guy myself ;)

I defined them as AA-Ammunition, but if they blow up they do it ouf visiual range. There are still some sound and effect issues, I couldn't solve so far.

one question, where can I download this mod?

Still work in progress...
