New Textures for Stuart 277s USS Sangamon Class CVEs by UncleTgt
This comprises a set of new textures for depicting any of the Sangamon Class CVEs used in the Pacific during 1942-44.
Measure 14 was used by these vessels when in the SWPTO during early 1943. The ...44 folders represent the colours used from late 1943 until the end of 1944. I have provided both numbered & blank flight deck options.
Measure 21 - USS Suwannee
Measure 22 - USS Sangamon & USS Santee
Measure 33/10A - USS Chenango
Texture Installation: Simply copy the chosen textures into the texture folder of your Sangamon class CVE.
Creating more Sangamon class CVEs:
Copy the whole USS_SangamonClass1942_LOD ship. Rename this new ship folder to your chosen ship name, for example USS_Chenango44
With ships, you have to also open up the ship.cfg file and modify the following lines as the sim wants the folder name, the DP file and the sim name in the ship.cfg file to be the same.
[fltsim.0]
title=USS_SangamonClass1942_LOD - change to USS_Chenango44
sim=USS_SangamonClass1942_LOD - change to USS_Chenango44
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=
checklists=
Save your amended ship.cfg. Once done, rename to DP file to match the "sim=" name. In our example USS_SangamonClass1942_LOD.dp becomes USS_Chenango44.dp
Thanks to: Stuart277 for a great & ever-expanding collection of ship models, easy on frame rates but not at the expense of detail.
This is freeware and subject to the usual conditions.
