For my two-penneth i'm with Reece.

I think a ship that size would look better slipping under the waves in one piece.

Perhaps you could release the ship VonDos, and include, or add later, an alternate zones file for those that want to increase the chances of her breaking up?

I know i won't be disappointed if she stays together.

If i ever see her in game i'll probably be too busy looking at her to get a decent salvo off

:hmm:

Face it people.
There is NOT one ship for the SH games that is perfect to the last detail!!
Show me the one you THINK is perfectly modeled?
I'll show you the faults in the model!!
As I said - just a suggestion, with no disrespect intended... I understand vondos must have worked hard on it, and I know firsthand how hard it is to design accurate shipping.

Oh I don't think anyone has taken your advise the wrong way! I for one am happy we have 2 great ship builders for this sim!
It's just that this is "the" ship that has probably had the biggest impact in history, so naturally everyone is puting in their 2 cents, you only have to look at how many pages to this thread, for a single ship, that's a lot of interest, and has a lot of people waiting for the launch!

Peace, mates ^_^
Advices and suggestions are always welcome
I've said and i will say always

Bow profile isn't so difficult to change, i've done something similar while converting from QM to QE; i'll try a small correction for a more historical correct ship

Voilà, reworked bow, and others textures improvements.



Bow wave is a little behind the right place, isn't it?

What do you think about this ship?

I think it's remarkable!! I'm sure you've got it right, so this is more a matter of my surprise, but I hadn't realised the funnels were quite so raked.

Oh, one other thing - re the 2nd picture: what is it with this ship and ice????

Absolutely gorgeous!

I await the release of her with excitement (and loaded forward tubes).

Brilliant!

Work of art!

One question, VonDos... do ships made for SH3 works in SH4?

In the latest version of Operation Monsun, 4 Von's ships have been converted, the Empress of Britain, the Queen Mary, Queen Elizabeth and the mighty Warspite Hope to see also that marvel
