~S~ all,

just thought I would share a trick we use to get control of big ships and their guns for our server. For example, we wanted to make Pearl harbors battleship row semi active to simulate gunners just getting going as the attack starts.

What we did was to put the ships asleep for the mission time, and tucked lvt amphibs in between the hulls. using this process you can add whatever caliber and amount you want. A little bit of static smoke and players can't even tell as they are zipping by. We also used smoke to hide freindly V-1's aimed right at the "arizona", 3 of them with a 15 minute delay to make sure it sunk when it was suppose to. It works out pretty good too, with a massive explosion like the magazine really blew!

I ended up in this thread because I'm trying to see if there is a way to place ships in mid-air..........why you ask? :lol: here is my current sig at our forums.

Before i say anything, I apology to everyone for going off subject for this once. I would love to see the vivid mod, if you, madcat2c, ever manage to make CV and fleet ship flying midair for pure fun and intense gameplay. And if that is the case and if you manage to success your goal, then you should start your own threads for vivid mods that give IL-2 a vivid, intense, purely fun gameplay. It could be called "Alternative reality mod or something like that.

However, BACK to subjects for orginial, realistic IL-2 shipmod, I look foward to see how this mod progress so far when the first public mod that enables driveable sea or ground veihcle for IL-2. I remembered the old time when Janes Fighter Anthology follow the simliar idea and it added a new dimension to the simulator itself during late 1990s. But now thsi time, with IL-2, I am certain that bring the abilities to operate sea and groudn veihcle will bring more dimensions to the IL-2 itself, in term of experiencing something virtually.
