VonBeerhofen Posted September 16, 2022 Posted September 16, 2022 Found this object in another addon where a failed attempt was made to get it working in EAW. It was a kind of wrecked Fleet Defender carrier but I managed to pull it back to live and reconstructed the model from scratch. It's now fully working and can be further improved, which is a lot easier once it's repaired. You heard it first on combatace.com VonBeerhofen
MarkEAW Posted September 16, 2022 Posted September 16, 2022 I don't know how you fixed all that mess, but it looks cool. You must have worked on it at a steady pace.
VonBeerhofen Posted September 16, 2022 Author Posted September 16, 2022 Had my doubts but once it began to take shape it went pretty quick, privilege of being a pensioner and being able to work 24/7 but I had to take a coffee break after 8 hours, :) VBH
VonBeerhofen Posted September 24, 2022 Author Posted September 24, 2022 Updated pictures above and this one! VBH
VonBeerhofen Posted October 6, 2022 Author Posted October 6, 2022 The final 100% product, hope it's good enough. I'll find a use for the 2 remaining nodes! VonBeerhofen
MarkEAW Posted October 7, 2022 Posted October 7, 2022 Wow, looks stunning. I bet it performs well to unlike the one crippled model I seen in UAW 1.60.
VonBeerhofen Posted October 7, 2022 Author Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) Yeah not much you can do with that old one from 2004 anymore, might as well get scuttled. Sorry C.G. hope you like what I did to it, I really tried to keep some nodes as is, so maybe that's some consolation! Shouldn't look too shabby in Midway either.

VonBeerhofen Posted October 20, 2022 Author Posted October 20, 2022 After a thorough cleanup 9 nodes were freed and put to good use, with still 5 to spare. Now fully rigged and weaponized with 6 anti aircraft guns: VonBeerhofen
MarkEAW Posted November 4, 2022 Posted November 4, 2022 (edited) Top notch work, as usual. What is that one gun in the center? It looks likes its on top of the roof of a little compartment? Is that were it suppose to go? EDIT: Oh wait its on the other side of the center compartment, it was hard to tell , but i looked at prevous screen shots to see where it would be placed.....

VonBeerhofen Posted November 9, 2022 Author Posted November 9, 2022 Yeah, 2D perspective can be a bit deceiving. Well perceived though, almost had me fooled me too lol. VBH
VonBeerhofen Posted April 18, 2023 Author Posted April 18, 2023 A miraculous transformation from the USS_HECTOR to the HMS_HERMES, as in use in various older addons. The bow section changed to the older carrier model and a bit of color was added to the life rafts to complement this version. Here it is in a quick adaptation of an off line shipping interdiction in EAWPRO. You heard it first on Combat Ace! VonBeerhofen
