Who says it's great to have Torplexed and Drebbel back?

I do! I am glad they are doing well, and it is great to see them on the forum. I know Torplexed and his witty art always make my day--he's a true treasure and a great guy. He helped create much of the website graphics that we still use toady (can't improve on perfection!). Drebbel has been around Subsim since Year 1, always a gentleman and his posts are thoughtful and clever. Subsim would not be what it is today without the Dutch Sea Lord.

We all have friends and family in real life, but I also value the great people I've met on the web over the last 15 years. Torpy, Drebbel, my life is richer from knowing you.

Now... I wonder where Letum is hiding.

Hmmm

The Third Man gets booted and Torpelexed comes back.

Coincidence?

Aww shucks Neal!

By the way I did finally get your Christmas card last year. Alas, the Postal Service misfiled it.

I, of course called them up in a huff and demanded that all my future mail be misfiled in this manner.

Of course it's great to have them back

Where is Drebbel btw? He did pop in a couple of times, but I haven't seen him posting regularly. Here's to hoping he IS back!

Welcome back, old comrades

NEW ANOUNCEMENT:

JOC-SH3-WW1-Project, Version 1.3 will be return on subsim soon, with new ww1-ships, like the IJN-Mikasa and HMS-King-Edward



This is the IJN-Mikasa


And now, the famous HMS-King-Edward, sunk at Jul. 1916


and a WW1-Freighter of a semi fictional Gwineth-Castle-Class


and a overhauled, new reworked one of my first masterprice: a small Dhau-Cutter wiht crew,... more about later...


and the other ships, like the SMS-Wittelsbach, HMS-Argus, Orion and the Pre-Wolverine-Destroyer in a overhauled version to bring more deeps in the game with working in the mission editor.

Whats also new:

animated crew, and a high-charge-crew, like the german Emperor and british monarchs


at first, german admiral Tirpitz, "Kaiser" Wilhelm II, Queen Elisabeth II, Admiral "Jacky" Fisher, aka "Dreatnaught-Fisher".

Admiral Jellycoe, Admiral Hipper, Admiral Scheer are in recruiting-process for the new release of JoC-Project 1.3

Oh...I forgot to introduce Admiral Togo


and now the default charges. Here are the arabian crew for the Dhau-Cutter:


The Prayer are my first expieriance of mesh-animation

and now the crew of the German-Kriegsmarine


the second from left, thats me. I was pressed to serve in the "Kriegsmarine" too.

at last my "Merchant-Crew" to man the cargo-ships



Ok, more details will follow soon.

Best Regards
Jo
