There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

That's Laz's USS-Valley Forge, right? I'm curious about
1) the deck statics - have I missed those? I thought Hooky was working on, but had not yet released, a "straight-through traffic" deck static set - or did I miss something?
2) the deck textures - look much nicer than mine - is there an update somewhere?
cheers,
Thanks DL.
The deck statics are the one's that come with Hooky's original package, except I thinned them down so only a few are on the sides so I can get straight through traffic (have to slew to get through the invisible crash barrier that causes a building crash).
Re the deck textures, I could see from the out take shots from 'Toko Ri' that the Oriskany deck back then had more of a caramel color. Collin's deck has a greenish color which I also like but wanted to try an alternative that might be more accurate historically, so I did some "exterior decorating" and selected and pasted bit by bit (using MS Paint and DXTbmp) the deck textures from Collin's USS Sicily (also here) but its not the greatest fit and the white has lines are still a bit out of alignment and the color could perhaps be a bit darker. If Helldiver is around he'd be a good judge as he was on the Leyte in the late 40's and early 50's.
