Laqueesha 474 Posted April 26, 2017 The carrier's nice. I like that they even painted on the "Battle E" markings on the island's bridge wings. Only things that stood out to me was the lack of the hangar bay (or working elevators), but that's not a big problem for me. Also, one of the signs inside said "stairs" when stairs on a ship are always referred to as ladders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trent 14 Posted April 28, 2017 Minor bug report: the Praetorian CIWS models are the wrong way round from their real-life counterparts with the sensors on the right side instead of left. http://www.imfdb.org/images/thumb/f/f1/A3ciws.jpg/600px-A3ciws.jpg vs https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/40/HMS_Daring_(D32)_Phalanx_CIWS.jpg/220px-HMS_Daring_(D32)_Phalanx_CIWS.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

POLPOX 778 Posted April 29, 2017 Nice addition... but I feel little disappointed about UH-80. If they can fold their rotors, I can little more happy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HazardousJay 83 Posted April 30, 2017 anyone know how to make the USS Freedom attachable to an object? wanna make a ghetto SHIELD Heli-carrier lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mankyle 418 Posted April 30, 2017 unfortunately when you attachto objects with PHYSx the interaction between the attachedto objects and other PHYSx objects cease to function properly. The trick would be to merge the PHYSx LODs of all component of the carrier and attach the GEO , RLODs etc... using attachto. Until BIS doesn't solve the limits it is the only way to do it. There would be two problems -Planex objects don't move along with moving objects so they would move and fall off the carrier -Man class objects don't interact with PHYSx lods so it would happen the same. For the moment it is not worth the effort. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hnchmc 125 Posted April 30, 2017 Perhaps I'm an idiot (Turns out I am!), but is the arresting cables broken for anyone else? It seems that no matter how I land, I can't snag any wires. I do believe this to be a bug, as deploying the tail hook returns an error in game from the script animating it. The error occurs when the sound is attempted to be played. someone forgot an ";" somewhere... After this error occurs, the tail hook does not deploy. If I call the action again fast enough, while the error message is still on screen, the hook does deploy. Attached is a screenshot. Occurs both in SP and MP. On another note, I have managed to find spots where clipping occurs. found this in MP, both my friend and I fell through the deck just forward of the wire closest to the bow. Spoiler Any help is kindly appreciated **EDIT** Just saw on the Jet's DLC feedback that it is mentioned in the patch note that the carrier lacks hook support... Ignore that now. I suppose that's what I get for not paying attention to the patch notes. Sorry about that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emperor_of_Krieg 0 Posted May 2, 2017 Will the interior be getting fleshed out? Would really improve immersion and be great to have the lower areas fleshed out just like in the USS Nimitz mod. Access to the bridge would also be great. A board and clear mission as CSAT would be very cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agree, even if it isn't on release having a interior for at least one floor of the command tower would be great. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ceolnariazz 39 Posted May 7, 2017 well a hangar bay and some more stuff " down below " would be nice - like a launch bay for amphibous vehivcles and speed boats etc - same goes for the sub which is just a prop unfortunately 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They do not however, as joostidy was likely trying to say, have a well deck, AKA launching bay for boats and amphibious vehicles. Yes, if BO1 is willing to work on it, the ability to launch and retrieve RHIB's would be nice, although it would likely have to be incredibly script heavy as it would involve lifting said small watercraft out of the water via winch/hoist/whatever it's called. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would be nice, but the primary value of the ships is being able to use them as bases, for which those features are superfluous. If we had an OPFOR carrier, then maybe, otherwise it seems kind of pointless. Yep, and even if we did have movable carriers, then we'd have to have things like winds and wake and point the carrier in the right direction for takeoff and landing operations.

AV8R_Six 110 Posted May 9, 2017 FLTREP - 5/9/2017 Tested the carrier with the F/A-181 Black Wasp II today and all catapults are working great. The wire trap field and hook are doing fine as well. I only noted one error when hooking up to the catapult, the plane is about 2 meters too far forward of the CAT Hook where the launch bar engages the CAT Shuttle Trolley. The engagement point should be farther back. Watch the external view at the end of this video. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GuyWithaJeep 82 Posted May 12, 2017 The Freedom doesn't have any audio interaction with rain, standing on the flight deck away from any vehicles leaves you in complete silence. The Black Wasp II also doesn't seem to have any audio for being out in the rain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
