[REL] Algerine Class minesweepers
Hello!
Tired of big ships, I did the late-war escort minesweepers (or fleet minesweepers) of the Algerine class, of which 110 were built. I tried trading size for level of detail and that's the result: Based on their characteristics, I classified them as corvettes (unit type 1). So, they happily will attack submarines. DL: http://www.mediafire.com/file/lmrgrw...lgerine_mod.7z EDIT: I updated the archive file; the Ship_names_MS_Algerine.cfg file has been corrected for typing errors Here's a direct link to that file: http://www.mediafire.com/file/akgadg...MSAlgerine.cfg Also, the model is my tribute to JuJuGrotjans artwork done during the intial phases of SH3 modding. I used parts of his textures when doing those of the Algerine. Good hunting -- the Frog Last edited by the_frog; 06-29-12 at 01:35 PM. |

Without having a look into the campaign files of GWX, I assume there are generic entries calling for British and Canadian corvettes. That given, there's a fair chance that they show up from '42 on.

Thanks Frog.Kinda puzzled that people are not praising your work when other threads show just a blue print and a plan and get two pages.So here is two more thumbs up and a thanks for your work.

LemonA, what is the idea behind presenting a picture of HMS Hussar (J82), a Halcyon class minesweeper?
Are you hoping that to be built next? |

Have you considered applying to the HAHD team? They are in need of a good hand with 3d modelling, and have videos to improve your skills (IAW their thread). I am a cut-and-paste modeller, so I have not applied myself...

By the way, I'm really tired of the big long warships! Finally, a long-awaited minesweeper!

A small point: regarding brightness the Algerine picture does not fit to the rest of the recognition manual. It is too bright.

@LemonA:
Brightness of recognition manual image is that of stock SH3; some big mods (such as GWX) have darkened pictures. So, to make it fit, just use your favourite image manipulation software. The picture you showed is a digitally colourised (and horizontally flipped - whaler on wrong side, pennant number mirrored) b/w, right? It matches nicely texture T03 [= HMS Mutine (J227)]. @the rest: Thanks for the kind words |

Looks great! Installed now... and the new 4in mounting looks good too.
