Is this a CV?

Also, is there a way to make a new model and stick it in game? wut i mean is can i sumhow make a BB and stick it in there? I know you probably won't be able to use it, but I don't want to be able to move it around maybe just use sum of the AA guns on it like 2-4 20mm's or is there a way i can supersize our cruiser's so they are as big as BBs?

AND, can i disable sum of the guns on the destroyers/cruisers/carriers, i on;y want the 20mm's able to be used, cuz...

5" gunz + zeros = great pain and/or suffering

i'd like to keep sum sort of balance, not have 1 or 2 guys on the 5" pwning any and all things that come into range, especially the poor low and slow torpedo planes:cry

No, that's tire marks or a shadow of the tower.

The Great Americain cover up! There wernt ment to be any Carriers in Pearl Harbour! Also Yoshi, youve gotta put a small ship to be used as a mini sub! Been proven that there were German Minisubs used in the attack on Pearl Harbour

Macleod, that's a custom object, and you don't know how long it takes to make those! Took me 3 months to finish a bridge!:rofl

You can make a custom object, have a fun time coding it so it will even move. But I gurantee you that you won't be making any gunner positions where you can fire torpedos!:aok

Bogie, could you elaborate on this, please?

Unless i'm wrong, (and I propably am, cause you can propably connect them to a CV so they can move)you have to code the custom object so it has properties that attach to the game that get it moving. Plus, you can't just slap on a gunner position that fires torpedos.

I thought you knew this one Dux. :)

Any object attached to a cv group will move with the group. Place any object with the CV Group , make it owned by the same field number as the CV (IE CV is field 4, make the object owned by 4), assign it an object type of Ship and an ID one higher than the last object in the group (usually 6 would be next).

And any object can be assigned as a CV. Just make sure it's ID is 0. It will move(with a wake and all) by the waypoints you give it.

If you're wondering....Yes, custom ships can move! :)

Yeah, I knew that one, NHawk... the kicker is that it only works offline or H2H; it does NOT work on HTC's servers. Believe me, it's been tried.

I was just making sure Bogie hadn't found something new... it sounded like he was talking about animated objects, not just ships. Sounded promising. :)

kewl,

so, if one wanted too, and had the time and patience to do it, you could, say, make a big ole battleship, although you can't make it shoot, or atleast, no one has figured out how to get it to shoot:D

Okay, well I didn't know that. No I did not find something new. Plus I wouldn't be able to make the object, cause I can't import any existing AC3D files from the Aces High II editor into my blender, for some reason it just won't work. Otherwise I might try this one out sometime.

LMFAO! is the KEWL from Cartman from the cartoon southpark cuz that freaking hilarious, and yes that  looks like a flat top. If that flat top would have been there Dec. 7,1941 that would have been a major blow for the americans when those japs stormed the harbor!

First off, it was a Flat Top, the Bridge is on the the edge but thats just glare/tire marks/shadow. The CVs were sent out to midway and other islands a couple days before the actual raid

Krypto, you don't need to say the Carriers were sent out of PH a couple of days before the attack, we all know none of the American Carriers were sunk in the attack, and i'm pretty darn sure if they had been there, they would've been drinking salt water the same as the rest of those ships.
