DSabre 2332 Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) This is a thing I started a few weeks ago and it is fun to play with. It will include the patrol boat and a matching RHIB. Perhaps some generic uniforms and helmets. No plans beyond. Edited August 4, 2020 by DSabre 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brave Sir Charge 122 Posted August 3, 2020 Probably totally not inspired by the Sea Patrol series with the Australian Armidale Class Patrol Boat? 😄 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSabre 2332 Posted August 3, 2020 Err can`t confirm or deny... wait... didn`t you want to say Altis Navy Armadale Class : ) ? Undecided on the ships name though. Open for suggestions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brave Sir Charge 122 Posted August 3, 2020 Probably something along the lines of *Hammerfly* 😂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chairborne 2594 Posted August 4, 2020 nice, what weaponry does it have? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSabre 2332 Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) The real thing carries a stabilised turret with a 25mm cannon and two HMG mounts next to the wheel house. Not sure if I will add the HMGs though. It feels a bit too much actually from testing. I might replace those with person turrets instead. Also found a new working name for the boat: Migaloo (aboriginal word for Ghost or spirit. Also, the nickname for albino humpback whale). Edited August 4, 2020 by DSabre 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PTV-Jobo 820 Posted August 5, 2020 That vessel is undoubtedly a beaut' for sure. Very nice, DSabre! 🙂 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSabre 2332 Posted August 7, 2020 (edited) Ship moves and turrets are operational. Basically it is feature complete. Starting uv unwrap and basic textures. Probably going to add the .50 cals after all. Interior and deck lights can be switched on and off together with position lights. Search light is slaved to the commander turret. RHIBs use ViV to deploy and return. Currently using a modified A2 RHIB. Plan to make my own version eventually as I had to change so much I might as well start from scratch. Bridge displays are static textures and probably will stay that way. It's too bad we can not project the custom info radar onto a screen.

We can, I mean those guys - devs of the Rafale - can, at least. As I read somewhere, it might be a solution that Reyhard had invented.

DSabre 2332 Posted February 29 Bit of a slow reply but that radar tech is super impressive! I have decided blank screens and static textures are good enough. Everything is rather simple to minimize the issues of addon theft, illegal monetisation, 3d model ripping, selling and whatnot. I will probably still regret releasing this big time. v0.010 - first release 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
