Very nice!
How do I actually rotate the turret after selecting one with the AUX2 key?

Well you need to use turrets rotaton keys. In the control/vehicle option,  you can set keys for turrets rotation .

Very well! I am glad very much that they make what new and interesting for the OT-Community together. If they wanted, I could help for them with the Texturing. In addition I need only the UVW-Mapps...of course if they wanted it themselves... ;)

I thought for a moment to do uvw map for the bismark. Would be nice to have the ship fully textured but it take so much time to make them especially with a ship this complex.  :'(

... it isnt complex - its just being importing unfriendly.  --- Damned anarchy modellers ...   ;D  ;D  ;D (lot of the model things had to be joined, duplicate-verts deleted, faces inverted, re-split and renamed and re-checked in OT a lot - i tryed the Kyev aircraft carier from the site the bismark was, did let it fall after two days wasted returning to mine works. Some of such models seeem to be faster re-modeled from scratch as to be salvaged from their states. - Maybe that why they are free to use in softwares(on many of such 3D modell sites), cause there is a lot consistency work needed to it.)

Hello M7, sorry for replying to an old post but I would like to know the frame rates you are getting with the Bismark model in the simulation.

Thanks DD

I'm getting around 30 fps with the bismark and 50+ without. Ao dont seems have much impact on framerate but Shade on the model looks much better now.

Thanks M7
  That's awesome, I have a lot of LOD models specifically designed for simulation (careful and methodical polygon placement) that I want to test in Outerra.  It looks like an exceptional test platform for what is coming in the future.

Do you have any fresh screen shots?

Looking forward to see your models. Always nice to see pros bring in their toys ;D

I took this pic with AO at medium. AO really help with this kind of model, when there's lots of shapes of the same color and no baked AO.

Thanks! The shadow quality is excellent. Are the textures yours and what is their resolution? I have a suggestion if you want it on crisping up your border shadows.  Also do you have a screen shot or two of the wire frame? I'm betting the original modeler wasn't is a simulation state of mind when he built the model. You can probably reduce the poly count by 50 + % if you want. But it's a great model...

What level of desire, capability do we have here for naval warfare ?

I have the complete kreigsmarine fleet, all varients, sub's n even aircraft carrier for a flight sim ie  low poly..on my hard drive somewhere.. Some are textured, others not but if there's anyone looking to work on 'targets' for a torpedo run in a swordfish... Which we can also lay our hands on...

I could give you a leg up.

I did the textures but it's very basic. It's all tile textures no UV so there are not very big. I 'm sure the model was never meant to end up in a game engine. It's just an outer shell, not intended for a sim.
