[WIP] Regia Nave Aquila (Italian Aircraft Carrier) V2.0

VonDos · 04-14-16, 02:54 PM

Hi everyone!
Days ago i've found on the web a copy of one of my oldest (and worst) mod: RM Aquila!
I've tryed her for fun; i know there were a lot of bugs (a static propeller, guns shots into the ship..) and i've found others also.

Just for use freetime, i've reworked the carrier a little, with more proportioned hull and redesigned bridge, larger white\red stripes on bow, 4 working propellers, and others 3d detail. I'm working on guns data now.

And 05/29/2016 status:

This is an image of the ship after initial works :

this was the original one, just for see the differences:

Is someone interested in an eventually release? I'll be honest, i'm not trying to solve ALL the bugs (some shining textures, for example, i don't know today how to solve this!), Btw, for sure i think she'll be improved a lot ^__^

Beautiful ! I hope you will be able to fix all the bugs !

Hi!

In order to solve major model bugs, i've scrapped the old hull, cutting the bridge and other reutilizable parts.
Stern of Aquila was really strange, just because this unit was a conversion from a big ocean liner (SS Roma).
So, i choose to base this new hull on a ocean liner hull (the Gradisca one, modified, adapted in dimensions and with deleted superstructures, as in the history;

This is a wip pic:

The original stern:

This will be occasion for others minor improvements in hull design.. but will require tons of time..

Regards,
Vd

Update:

What do you think about this?

ivanov.ruslan · 04-20-16, 01:58 PM

The second option is even better

VonDos · 04-26-16, 03:39 PM

Voilà, the new hull ingame (island still wip)
