Thanks a million Bruce, now I can replace that stock cruiser I have anchored where the Missouri is today in Pearl Harbor.

There is no end to your talent of creation. Boy am I glad of that. :rapture:

The real Pearl Harbor

Thanks to Bruce, Pearl Harbor looks considerably better.

Much appreciated Bruce, Tom

May I please Req a Hull #64 texture pretty please. Need to park at Nauticus, Norfolk NS.
 
I've been by the real USS New Jersey a few times sitting tied up in the Delaware River across from Philadelphia's Penns landing. She looks great N332DW, and a great addition to FSX too.

How can she be place in the Delaware River where she's tied up now, if possible?

Google is showing her as BB-62. N332DW, is BB-63 correct?
 
BB-63 (Missouri) is in Pearl Harbor. BB-62 (New Jersey) is at Camden, NJ. They are both Iowa class battlewagons, and so they look the same (more or less.)
 
I toured the Big J about a year ago. They've done a heck of a job with her upkeep. Heck, I got married a few months back just across the river in plain sight of her. She's quite impressive even today.

:ernae:
 
the 63 in the thread title was a fat finger - it's BB-62 NJ , she has a different tripod and mast structure from the Missouri --- and repainting a 64 in place of the 62 on the texture map should be an easy do it yourself project

-- and i thought there was already a fletcher that would work over at FS-shipyards


and has anyone fired the guns yet? i was kinda happy with the way that came out
 
Well I have a Battleship row at MUGM NAS. MUGM NAS was a known location for all US BB's for midshipmen cruise and training. Still going over 50 years of port records.
