Liberty Ship-Liberty Maru.dp's ACM v.1.1

[Blue Devil]

This is a beta offering of the ACM end of the Liberty_Maru project.

Included are .cfg's and .dp's for US and JN cargo ships.

Models used:
Hog_Islander_a
Hog_Islander_b
Liberty_ship
Merchant_Tanker_T2
SS_Adventure

Eighteen(18) different ships. (including two(2) port ships)

Merchants are lightly armed, ...AK/AP/AO's heavily, ...as per spec.

Textures include Oldweat's new "fx_3.bmp", ...so don't forget to D/L the original here at the 'Outhouse. (thanks Ye'ol' clever dickie)

fx_flak's are ACM w/ a 15-30ft radius (stock=225ft), ...and a reduced magnitude (0.05 of stock) so that near misses/hits give you a "bump", ...but don't destroy the A/C with an over-g-limit "bump" if you use RealityX.

Use'm (or don't) and let me know how they work.

I will eventually U/L a complete package based on the feedback.

PS. This does NOT include .mdl's, ...or ship textures.

Thanks, ...and enjoy.

Hey Ettico ...



... consider using these for the merchantmen in your large DCG campaign instead of the VN_ships.

I'm playing with some repaints & even in a largish group they don't seem so hard on framerates ...

I'm working on the JAPs in grey/ early war dazzle/ late war green grey

... sorry not able to upload screenshots (yet).

Kudos to GC, Wolfi et al for the base models

Even tried Wolfi's Prinz Heinrich in overall grey as a coaster (WIP)
