Silent Hunter
|
Great job. Is there any chance of seeing "HMS Sydney" and her sister ships? Or the "Exeter"? One of my favorite things about Silent Hunter II was that nearly all of the famous Allied cruiser classes were eventually completed by modders. The more cruisers, the merrier.

Yes I'am also a big cruiser fan, and despite they are not found very often when you patrol in your boat, I love their looks in the WW2 time frame. Everybody loves the battleships and the big guns, but I consider cruisers much sexier. With regard to the Leanders and Mod-Leanders, the frog did an excellent set for SH3, and I think that someone converted them to SH4. Right now I'm finishing a number of ships I had already modeled in 3D but needed that last push that I couldn't understand, and unfortunately the Exeter was not one of them. The Belfast needs tweaking in (I guess) the .zon file. A single torpedo will now sink it, which is a bit weird for a +10000 cruiser. I have to check it. I still need to test Abdiel's durability, but having used the Tribal as a base I think it will behave more realistically to damage. Hopefully someday I will be happy enough with the results to release them |

Apologies, I didn't know you had to register to download files. Here is a different link in another server:

@iambecomelife:
The modified Leander (Perth) class I did was modelled along the lines of HMAS Perth but has textures representing HMAS Sydney. HMAS Sydney differed from her sisters in that not being refitted and still carrying 4'' single AA guns. That can be fixed by adding a loadout with the appropriate guns, which are in the guns_UK.dat that came with the Algerine Class minesweepers. @JapLance: Did you use the *.zon file of the Fiji Class for the Belfast? The Baltimore.zon might give soemwhat better results. |

Belfast test:
The main guns (6in _Triple_turret_UK) are not in the stock version (1.4)! Where did you get it? More testing coming soon .... |

In the readme it states that you need SH4 updated to 1.5. |

Does anybody have comments to make about the Belfast? Any bugs?
In the meantime I've been busy: I'm particularly happy with this one, because I did the hull myself instead of reusing one of the stock ones. It took me some extra time, but to compensate I kept using some Fiji parts (masts, radars, cranes, funnels) . Still far from finished, but it looks good. |

Thank you Volta, I appreciate that.
Another WIP, this time useful for the Mediterranean Campaign: I had done an early attempt when creating the campaign, but I was not really satisfied with the results. This one looks much better. |
