LPD-29: San Antonio Class
Version 2.0 First Public Release (7/31/11)
By M.Phillips aka Absolution
Features: -Flight Deck capable of handling multiple helicopters/VTOLs -3 storage decks appropriate for vehicles and personnel -Flooded Well Deck for boats and amphibious vehicles
Description: I am a member of the 15thMEU(SOC) realism unit and I developed this addon to facilitate amphibious operations. For about a year this has been available to the 15thMEU as a private addon but I think it's time to share it with the community. This is my first addon effort and there will be a number of amateur quirks but through testing I have determined it to be sufficient for its intended purpose.
Enjoy!
Known Bugs: -The LPD MUST be placed in the editor with an orientation of 0 degrees (nose pointing East) or 180 degrees (nose pointing West). The script used to place the ship is broken. -many of the shadows for the forward 2/3 of the ship are broken due to a variety of issues. As long as you do not scrutinize them too closely they should not be noticeable. -Ocean disappears when looking out of the observation deck's window. It's due to how I textured the "glass". This only occurs when looking through the window. -When a player spawns on the LPD in the middle of a mission they are prone to instant death/injury. A clever mission maker may be able to resolve that on their end. -"wet feet" sounds after getting out the water and into the LPD. This will go away once you walk on solid ground (example: dirt). |
