Argentinian carrier

[+Gepard 11,213]

I played a little bit with the argentinian carrier 25 de Mayo and found a strange little problem when i tried to make the guns working.

With Yaw entry in the data.ini the gun moves perfectly as it should in circle.

But with Pitch entry the gun does not move up an d down, but is rotating along the gun axis.

I have marked the movement of the gun at the screenshot. The gun is rotating left and right, but not up and down. I think there are two axis in the ship model wrong

Has someone an idea how to fix it? Is there a command to move the gun in the third axis? Or can it be only fixed by moding the LOD file?

We were never interested in making the weapons work so I think that the pivot must be extended and this is solved only with the max of the model

If you can wait a little bit. I'm planing to release the "Argentinian Fleet" in near future. But first i must ask the makers of the 25 de Mayo, wheter they allow me to use this carrier in my mod.

Somebody will. Likely somebody that does no modding of any stripe.

Hell, my packs this summer had a guy posting about the Block 10 F-16s ( aka the TW model) needing new models. On several packages with NO Block 10s included.

Big part is are you happy with it and is it too noticeable in game. If the answers are yes and no in order,  it's all good.
