A little request for asheshouse about IJN ships

Not really. After all I've only done one ship so far.

I'm quite tempted by some of the Italian Navy warships though.

It is a great pity that the game does not have any USN nor IJN battleships.
Pacific Fighters was a huge disappointment due to the limited choice of warships.

Dear mate!

I'm a profane in modding so I apologize for my ignorance and for bother you wiyh my topic!

Reading your post at goshikisen I have got an idea to couple with the two things: your interest in a new carrier for RN and the desire for new IJN ships!

In the realization of new carrier for RN that you think to realize in the future you need to do anyway some experiments with them so , if in the meantime of the experimetation , you'll do other 4 new slot for ship you can do 4 great needed ship for IJN and Pacific Theatre lovers and for a 'what if' scenarios between IJN and RN too:

(first new ship) - The change of the side from starbord to port of the island of the Akagi allow to realize the Kaga frankenship;

(second new ship) - The same change of the side from starbord to port of the island of the IJN Generic Carrier allow to realize the Hiryu frankenships;

(third new ship) - If you delete the island of the USN CVL , this allow to realize the IJN CVL GENERIC like the Shoho , Zuiho , Chioda and Chitose frankenships;

(fourth new ship) - If you delete the island of the USN CVE , this allow to realize the IJN CVE GENERIC like the Taiyo , Chuyo , Unyo and other similar frankenships that at the moment I don't remember.

Yes , those new ships will be the stock ones with really little modification but they are badly needed in the game!

I make a pool for this topic to allow people to add their opinion (positive or negative) at my thought!

Hope you can feel this usefull!!

But remember, with only the change or elimination of the "island/command bridge, funnel structure" what you will obtain will still be a "lookalike" Kaga or Hiryu or whatever carrier you want, will still not be the real thing. But of course, better than nothing...

Carry on!

I made Hiryu, Kaga and Soryu for the HSFX 4.0 pack. They are merely hacks, Hiryu being a reskinned Akagi and Kaga/Soryu being reskinned IJN Carrier Generic. Each has its own slot in the game; they are better than nothing but real new models would be the ideal. Lot of work though Sad and not for me as skinning is stretching things for my abilities.

we could use some japanese transport ships for the up coming New guinea map or the exsisting Slot map.

Well the Pacific and fitting ships, that is a desert with a few water holes!
If there is interest in making Japanese ships, I could offer a large amount of picture material.
Here a few examples:

Would it be possible to import ships from Silent hunter 3 or 4? Maybe someone could contact the modders on subsim.com if they are interested to share models?

Just a shot in the dark Smile

Dear mates!

1) Like writed from asheshouse in his Tribal & Dido treads , importing ships from SH isn't so simple because the engine that manage them is different and the graphic is also not so compatible!

2) In my request I have tried to match two things between them because in the future project of asheshouse there is too a new carrier for RN for Mediterranean Theatre and , since I have thought that he must to make some experiments with the carrier itself , I have so suggested to make the 4 'new' IJN carriers in my first post like such training exercize!

3) Other ship than the carrier (even if really badly needed!!!!!) isn't compatible with his project and can't couple with it!

I'm really sorry to bother someone , I apologize for this , but please keep the tread in line with it's/mine purpose!

cheers

Well in your post it was not so clear that the talk would be only about carriers.
As you mentioned yourself new IJN ships and the thread titel sudjests that too.

If it is only carriers, well at least they should be done properly and not just a bit munched around.
As that is a solution that on the long run will make no one really happy.

Sorry for posting then non useful material.

In the realization of new carrier for RN that you think to realize in the future you need to do anyway some experiments with them so , if in the meantime of the experimetation , you'll do other 4 new slot for ship you can do 4 great needed ship for IJN and Pacific Theatre lovers and for a 'what if' scenarios between IJN and RN too:

(first new ship) - The change of the side from starbord to port of the island of the Akagi allow to realize the Kaga frankenship;

(second new ship) - The same change of the side from starbord to port of the island of the IJN Generic Carrier allow to realize the Hiryu frankenships;

(third new ship) - If you delete the island of the USN CVL , this allow to realize the IJN CVL GENERIC like the Shoho , Zuiho , Chioda and Chitose frankenships;

(fourth new ship) - If you delete the island of the USN CVE , this allow to realize the IJN CVE GENERIC like the Taiyo , Chuyo , Unyo and other similar frankenships that at the moment I don't remember.

Yes , those new ships will be the stock ones with really little modification but they are badly needed in the game!

There is definitely a need for more ships for the Pacific theatre. If I had not decided to focus on the Med then my next choice would probably be the IJN. You have posted a long list, too long for me to spend time on. Maybe I could look at one of the projects if you could post some plans or images of Kaga to compare with Akagi to see if a frankenship is feasible. I would not want to do it unless the appearance could be made reasonably authentic. Were the hulls similar in length?

I do want to experiment with flight deck features so may as well use the Akagi to do it.

To answer another post. I don't think it would be easy to change the damage models. These are defined in the core programme not in the individual ship models.

Thanks mate for the reply!

I have writed to you because I think that even a carrier that are only similar at the original one can be better than nothing!

What I have in mind were only some simple change that could be done without much work and time losses by you (mainly a simple island cancellation and/or side changes) to get a first step to fill the gap and fly from or against them!

As second step the new slot ships can be improved looking more similar to the original one!

I think that this simple modification can be done because at the moment many mission that in history have the Hiryu or the Kaga here use the IJN GEVERIC CV ar the AKAGI anyway!

We can't do many other action because we haven't IJN CVL (like Shoho in Coral Sea Battle) or CVE to take off with B5N and escort a convoy against some US subs and so on!

Those are the main difference between them:

IJN Shokaku-Zuikaku-Generic vs Hiryu

Displacements: 25675 / 20250 tons
Dimension: 844'10" x 85'4" x 29'1" / 745'11" x 73'3" x 25'9"
Speed: 34 / 34


IJN Akagi vs Kaga

Displacements: 41300 / 42541 tons

I think that the difference between them can be not so great to avoid such modification!

And those lay the foundation for future improvements!!!!

Dear mate!

Your post is true , I have quoted a portion for reference at asheshouse and so doing , maybe , I am been unclear with the others!

My greatest apologize!!!

I don't think that your post isn't useful , you have a great database and I'm sure that many guys 'll keep your nickname for future references request!

I know that what I'm asking can delude someone but I think that something is better than nothing anyway , allow a future improvements and (perhaps) don't subtract much time to asheshouse projects too!

At soon mate!!

@ walter_solito,

I understand what you are trying to do, misunderstandings can happen, is o.k.
Ship modifications I guess are still better than nothing.
If wished for I can post pictures of those mentioned carriers, but only if they are wished for.

Otherwise when the time comes, and people would like detailed material I will gladly post it then.
