As an ocean liner lover, i must say this model is AMAZING
I can imagine to walk into promenades inside glass windows.
Details are breathtaking. And FPS are good too!

Damn, sorry for my cheap and badly setted graphic card's effects, but i think your work deserves al least a screenshot!



Respect for your work!

I don't know if you're interested on create other great ocean liners \ troopers like Aquitania, New Amsterdam, Rex etc, but... keep up the extremely good work!

Best regards,

Hi VonDos.
Thank you for warm words.
About another great liners - those ships are too beautiful ad too complicated - my wishes are limited by lack of enough information and time. Mauretania has consumed almost three years of efforts - a little more than construction of real liner.
I'm in consideration of next big model - could be Pasteur, but I still hasnt found layouts or drawings of her. Will see.

Another issue - from my pont of view all those great liners (20000+ GRT) should be gathered in their own group of UnitType, not as now - in 103. Its quite weird meet Queen Mary in slow random convoy, majestically crawling among small tramps at 8 knots.
At least we have separate unit group 10 only for battlecruisers - for three ships only.

You're welcome, and, again, thanks for your dedication in your mods!
I understand, with a similar detail level, there's a huge need of time and blueprints\schemes\photos etc.
As said, you're free to mod everything you want, if you want
I well remember images of Pasteur. A big liner with a single funnel... but, what a funnel!!



About UnitType 103, i agree. If we can have a class for Hood, Repulse and Renown, we should have another, and larger, class for big, high speed, zigzag course, alone or lightly escorted ocean liners! They deserve this

Best regards,
