Default REQ - Permission for use a guns library

Hi everyone!
While finally testing RM Aquila new carrier, i've readed original project's specifications about guns:

MAIN --> 8 × 135 mm (5.3 in)/45 cal guns
SECONDARY --> 12 × 65 mm (2.56 in)/64 cal guns
A\A --> 132 × 20 mm (0.79 in)/65 cal

At moment ingame model use as secondary guns 4.0 in. single from standard guns library. Powerfull. Too powerfull in place of a 65mm cannon.

I've searched into my library folder a more "historical" or similar gun, i've found "76mmRSingle" from gunsVaa_Liliput.dat, i think from "Vaa_Liliput"
I've searched this member but i can find he, for ask permission to use his guns in final release. Does anyone know how to contact him for ask?
Naturally if ok for him, i'll give credits

I can't find an user by that name or any name close to it. Where did you get the file from?

@ VonDos

Bitts and railings on the lower deck are black rather than metal-gray. Did you make them like this on purpose or what is going on with their texture?

135 mm/45 (5.3") Models 1937 and 1938
65 mm/64 (2.56") Model 1939
20 mm/65 Models 1935, 1939 and 1940 (Breda)

The 20mm guns were in a uncommon sextuple-mount configuration. I would be curious to see how they looked like

Thanks everyone! PM sent to Denis_469, waiting for..

@gap, yes, i've painted them black in this "detailed" pic they looks bad, but if you see the entire unit from a "normal" distance the effect is really good

I think sextuple-mount configuration was just a project version, never realized (ingame i've used a quadruple more generic a\a)

British Illustrious class carriers had 16 x 4.5" guns, 48 x 2pdr and 40 x 20mm.

American Essex class carriers carried 12 x 5" guns, 72 x 40mm and 52 , 20mm.

They had a bit of protection.
