Modern Hospital Ship (Wilhelm Gustloff)
Hi everyone!
I'm glad to release a new unit: a ww2 modern design hospital ship based on german cruise ships "Wilhelm Gustloff" \ "Robert Ley": This is a reworked version of original "Wilhelm Gustloff" by AOTD_MadMax (2007), reproportioned, with light effects, 3d details, 3d stairs and railings, reworked textures, correct number of lifeboats, new cranes, working searchlights, reworked .zon and .sil files... This is not a 100% correct Wilhelm Gustloff model. This is intended to act as a generic modern ocean liner \ cruise ship (single funnel, 2 masts) converted to hospital ship during ww2. That's why i've added also 3d red crosses on ship's side and other details. d\l link: http://s000.tinyupload.com/?file_id=...57409134244404 Best regards, Vd

@ VonDos
Out of curiosity: why do you call your unit "generic"? As far as I can judge from a quick visual comparison with pictures of the real Wilhelm Gustloff, if not 100% accurate, your and AOTD_MadMax's model resembles the German hospital ship quite closely. ...and since you reward this unit as a 'generic modern ocean liner', why didn't you provide it with a generic war-grey texture together with the hospital ship texture? |

How do you imagine this ship in the neutral part and the opposite side of the AXIS?

Well, if you assign a unit to "Red Cross" roster, this ship will be spawned in all hospital ship's route. Red Cross units will not serve as a Allied or Axis unit, so this can create a paradox like a soviet Wilhelm Gustloff, or a british one. Quote:
Do you know how much time will this require to me, for create a realistic troop transport\floating barrack unit with a semi historically accurate A\A with supports, a gray skin, to add rafts and extra lifeboats... (Image taken from web, just a reference) Just kidding. Not more than one hour using modular parts taken from previous units Best regards, Vd

Thank you!
While waiting, just a question for you. Do you think this ship should be considered a "civil" unit (Type103=Troop Transport) or a military unit (Type13=Auxiliary Cruiser, or something different?)? Best regards, Vd ps Thank you so much!

Only a perfectionist like VonDos could remind us that his model is not 100% accurate. How many SH units are btw? Quote:
I was half-kidding but the last pictures you have posted here show me that, depite your irony, you took my speculations pretty seriously lol |
