Post by: Bartolomeus on April 16, 2011, 21:19:33: I think the SSE needs more (and greater) naval vessels.

How about this ship? The USS Deyo DDG989.

Post by: Bartolomeus on April 22, 2011, 18:39:19: Hi Serkan, here is a link for the Finnstar thread (http://dvomarinedesign.forumphp3.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=79) at Dom's forum. Sry, my homepage is currently offline.
But here is the Digital-Meshes Facebook Page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Digital-Meshes/143642875679105?ref=ts). I will upload some new photos tonight.

Best Regards
Marko

Edit: I hope the advertising is okay? ???

Post by: serkan on April 22, 2011, 20:11:48: Thank you Marko for the links.

Very very nice work. I really would like to see it in shipsim.

Keep on the good work !...
Title: Re: My active Project's!
Post by: Thor2 on April 23, 2011, 09:45:21: Oh yes very nice work Marko :2thumbs:

Let us hope to see this nice Ropax Ferry in Shipsim soon. TravemÃ¼nde without the Finnstar is not TravemÃ¼nde.

Post by: Bartolomeus on April 29, 2011, 10:02:55: I think we need a british warship for the Dover/Calais map. How about a type 23 frigate? I love this class.

Here is the HMS Iron Duke F234.

do you use plans? and if so were do you get them from?
Title: Re: My active Project's!
Post by: Bartolomeus on April 29, 2011, 12:25:13: Thx. I've found a 3view image on Google. I have no real blueprint of the ship. Fortunately there are enough pictures of ships of this class. ;)
Title: Re: My active Project's!
Post by: Bartolomeus on May 19, 2011, 17:14:40: Here is the next ship in my shipyard. The Tico is the first project (which I will finish) after the Finnstar.

The USS Gettysburg CG 64.

Post by: DVOMarineDesign on May 20, 2011, 14:49:04: Nice job Marko.

Of course they're not seen from close view point in the above screenshots so we can't see the detail, but the Phalanx look really good as well.
Also, I like the SPY-1B fixed radar antena texture as well as the one used for superstructures. They're realistic.

Post by: Bartolomeus on May 21, 2011, 11:56:55: Thx Dom. The Phalanx System is from Jason Simpsons. But I will create a new Phalanx model for the Tico.
Currently i am working on the bump maps for the hull and the superstructures.

Post by: dexter7 on May 25, 2011, 02:25:09: are you planning to release these for VS or VSF?
Title: Re: My active Project's! (Finnstar completed, next ship: USS Gettysburg!)
Post by: Bartolomeus on May 25, 2011, 18:48:44: If VSTEP has no interest in the Tico, I will definitely make a VSF version. ;)

Post by: Bartolomeus on May 27, 2011, 11:33:43: New update from the Gettysburg. The superstructures are completed.

Absolutely VSTEP should be interested with this model !!
