Cv-6 uss enterprise released

GypsyBaron said:
... On the aicarriers note...has anyone else noticed that a fleet will NOT move if you locate it "1 NM ahead"? I struggled for some time yesterday thinking I had a system problem until I
chose "5 NM" or even "At user location". Not a big problem but it did cause me to dig around a bit. ...

How do you place a fleet “1 NM ahead”? Ahead of what? Is it with those two numbers at the end of the unit.x=USS_Ship, 0 , 0 line in the aicarriers.cfg file? After playing around with them, I think they are displacement (x and y) from the center of the formation, but I don’t know what the units are. I assume from the results, that it’s yards. I haven’t seen my formation not move, exactly. But your statement here reminds me of the problem I am having, that the Enterprise will not move. Actually it does move, she jumps up and down like a ship possessed by demons, and spins around as it at anchor in a stiff wind. However, my Yorktown, which is nothing more than a copy of Enterprise renamed, moves fine. Very strange.
 
Paul:

When you are flying your carrier bird of choice, hit the module selections at the top and select the ships menu. If it does not have a position menu, ie, 1 NM or 5 NM ahead etc, hit delete, then select CV6, then the positioning menu will show up.

Cheers: Tom
 
Modules? What modules? Are we still talking about AICarriers2? I'm confuesder now! This is what I see...
 
Paul:

Yes, select Enterprise or Yorky, then the next page that comes up should have the object placement menu. Mine has 1 NM, 5 NM and several other choices. Helps if you are over water....

-SNIP-

EDIT: Seems the message I replied to may have been in response to the
other 'Paul' here :)

Referencing my previous post concerning repaints of the
Fletcher DD. I went a bit further than I had originally intended
and wound up creating 9 seperate paints:
----- DesRon 52 - DesDiv 103 -----
USS Miller DD-535
USS Owen DD-536
USS The Sullivans DD-537
USS Stephen Potter DD-538
USS Tingey DD-539

----- DesRon 21 - DesDiv 42 ----
USS Fletcher DD-445
USS Radford DD-446
USS Jenkins DD-447
USS La Vallette DD-448

Each one is 'customized' beyond just the hull numbers
so they won't be cookie cutter clones :)

A couple of screenshots on one of the DD's are attached.

Wow nice carriers .... cant wait to land on one of those bad boys :ernae:
 
Is this the CV-6 the one that (I thought) was going to be released as scenery for the FS9 crowd?

I don't go to this forum much, so I could have missed an announcement.

As good an end to an arrested landing as I can do.... Carrier Qual trials, F4U-1A, Off Midway, 1944. Attol barely visible astern.

Michael Davies beautiful Essex ships seem to be on perma hold for some reason. Too bad.

Sadly real life is a bear right now coupled with a complete burn out from FS, hence this much delayed reply ( 17 days ), so much so that all aircraft projects are stored until further notice, probably forever if I'm a realist.

The good news is that the carriers, Essex ( several variants ) and Reagan will pick some labour up in the next few weeks hopefully, with the aircraft factory closed, work on the carriers will / should progress much better.

One of the first things will be a need to re read this thread and try to remember all I've forgotten over the last months LOL, some good stuff going on in here and these carriers are looking rather excellent in FSx it has to be said !.

Best

Michael
 
Michael:

Good luck personally and professionally. For those that have not seen his Essex ships in progress, they are indeed works of creative genius.

Cheers: Tom
 
Michael,

Keep up the good fight! Finish the CV's when time permits. What you have thus far is magic & way to many hours invested to just be dropped.

Tom,

When are you gonna stop taunting us with that Hog & release it??? :redfire: :redfire: :redfire:
 
Not mine to release, I just make it fly....

However various others are making good progress on pulling it together and are hoping for a beta test (what was that ESSS word I was looking for?).

Glad to see the sucess of both new vendors and the release of some of the classic Naval Aircraft, done with the advances that FSX can bring forth. Some very tallented people out there!

Cheers: T.
