@natemomog there is no use, look at all the people who have been asking for an update for about a year now. MisterT probably turned off notifications and just doesn't give a damn about it. It would be great if he at least made a pinned to comment to explain why he won't update it (I'd even be okay with it if he said that he just doesn't want to bother with it or if there is some technical limitation, just say something, anything) but nope, not even that.
@TheOfficalMarylander the website already has a system in place that stops accounts below a specific point number (30 points iirc) from upvoting posts (to prevent upvote farming) so I guess they could tweak that system to get it the way that you described. Im definitely in favour of it.
Posting teasers as builds is mostly problematic because in this case, it's violating the "misleading thumbnail" rule as you are just uploading a cockpit part but have a full plane on your thumbnail.
As others have already suggested here, posting teasers as forums or videos would be better.
@126 I'm not planning to build too many of these as cars don't interest me that much, but this project was very refreshing after building so many ships (and it only took like a week to finish) so there will probably be a few more cars from time to time:)
The ship looks absolutely magnificent. The immaculate detail work immediately stands out. The ship handles well on the ocean mod an the weaponry is very easy to use
- Design/Accuracy (15/15):
I didn't find any notable inaccuracies compared to the real ship.
- Details (14/15):
The ship is extremely well detailed, down to the inclusion of a fully built bow crest as well as full rigging. It even hase casemate doors that can open and close. The fuselage art naval flag on the stern was beautifully made as well.
The only thing I missed was the addition of railings.
- Features (18/20):
The build has all weaponry of the vessel being usable, including all calibers of guns as well as the torpedo tubes. The guns are auto-aimed and very accurate. I also liked that they get disabled when the target is out of their firing arc.
I really liked the added feature of some of the casemate guns being retractable, with the bow mounted ones even having doors that close on them
There is also a small bridge interior with the steering wheel as well as an open platform with the EOT. Unfortunately, neither are usable but they are nice details.
- Build Quality (10/10):
The build is clearly made with very high effort, the hull is perfectly smooth and well built. The builer used tons of creative, part saving solutions, I was amazed at how genius some of them were.
- Performance (20/20):
The ship handles very well, even on the ocean mod. The use of custom propellers and rudder based steering was very appreciated. The handling of the ship feels realistic (with an accurate maximum speed) but still fun to use.
The auto-aimed weaponry is very easy to use and does the job perfectly.
- Description and Information (15/15):
The description is just perfect. The length of it great, it features a lot of information but not too much to become boring. Thereare also a lot of images, including diagrams of the firing arcs, as well as a custom artwork of the ship being presented as a shipgirl
Additional Points (-0, +3):
+3 for the effort of building a Borodino-class from scratch just for the sake of a screenshot in the distance
The ship has a rather unique design and appears to be based on the real life Brandenburg-class pre-dreadnoughts with some creative liberties taken and a fictional lore being built around it.
The turning was just unusably slow and I was saddened to see that the builder forgot to enable smoothing, which made an otherwise very well built tumblehome hull a bit less appealing. I also noticed some uncredited parts used.
- Design/Accuracy (13/15):
As mentioned, the ship is based on the Brandenburg-class with some changes and is overall very authentic.
The only problem is that the borrowed anchors are a bit too large.
- Details (12/15):
The build has okay detailing, nothing too fancy tho there are some great parts such as the finely built bow crest or the well detailed falgs. The decks have good detail work, the rigging is pretty minimal but it's there, the railings only on the upper decks and are completely absent from the main deck and there is an almost empty bridge interior.
The funnel smoke and the flags waving where also nice details as well as the crane hooks swinging on actual winches.
- Features (10/20):
The ship has all weapons usable, including the main and secondary cannons as well as the torpedo tubes.
The build features a system that allows the turrets to be trained to either side and then manually adjusted once they are there, which I think was a celver solution without having to use a complicated FT syncing system.
There is an almost empty bridge interior with a ship's wheel that isn't even correctly set up as the ship turns to the opposite direction than which the wheel was turned to.
- Build Quality (7/10):
The builder did try to use some good part saving solutions including slicing for the railings or labels used for the portholes and ladders.
The builder forgot to enable smoothing on the hull which was a real shame because the tumblehome looks great but seeing the individual segments ruins the illusion a bit. this also applies to the vertical fuselages at the bow and stern which would have looked much better with smoothing.
Upon checking the flags, I noticed that the creator was rather wasteful with parts on them, they could have been solved much more efficiently.
- Performance (12/20):
The ship needs a bit of time to speed up but it's really on the edge between too slow and acceptable so I'll put it to acceptable. The steering however is unusably slow, I'd have to sail around the entire vanilla map just to make a 360 turn.
The guns' traverse rate was okay, a good balance between realistic and usable, but the reload time was once again way too slow to be enjoyable, even if it was done for realism.
It handles okay on the ocean mod but only at low waves as higher waves disable the propellers so it's hard to gain any speed.
- Description and Information (12/15):
The description is very informative with a full lore and history written for the ship, however I feel like it's too long, it's almost a wikipedia page worth of information which I believe would have worked better if the creator put all the history part into a document and given a link for it while the description itself would have only included a brief summary of it.
The screenshots are great.
Additional Points (-3, +0):
-3 for not giving credit for the ship's wheel and the anchors
The ship has every element to look like a proper pre-dreadnought, but I feel like the builder went a bit overboard with the chubbyness. The build is soo wide and short that it feels more like a toy or an eggship than an actual vessel.
Other than that, the ship looks pretty okay, adequate detailing and the controls are clear and easy to use as well.
- Design/Accuracy (11/15):
As mentioned, the ship's thickness is a bit too much, however, other features such as the tumblehome hull, weapon placement, the look of the superstructure and so on seem to well representing the design of pre-dreadnoughts.
My only other criticims would be the slanted funnel tops as that was not really a thing in this era of warships
I also couldn't find any real life examples of 4 screw pre-dreadnoughts but I found some with 3 screws so I'm willing to accept this as reasonable.
- Details (9/15):
The ship has pretty minimal details overall, tho there are a few nice things such as the individually modeled chain pieces (albeit the chains themselves make no sense as they don't lead to any hawse hole or anchor, they seem to bge just connecting a few capstans)
The builder also included some portholes too, as well as windows on the superstructure and even flags on the masts.
- Features (7/20):
There are usable main, secondary and tertiary guns on the vessel and nothing else.
Propulsion is solved with jet engines and steering with a gyro, not very great.
- Build Quality (4/10):
The build is not very efficient with parts. I was very suprised to see vtol nozzles still being used for port holes, it being a very old and outdated techniqe. The hull's parts dont flow into each other smoothly either.
There is not much else to say about it.
- Performance (13/20):
The vessel is easy to handle, I found no problem with any of controls, they are easy to understand and use. Speed and turning are good as well, they are not too fast or too slow.
Unfortunately, the ship couldn't handle the ocean mod well, it was rather bouncy
- Description and Information (15/15):
The description was pretty great. It features a lot of informaton such as a history section, controls and a ton of screenshots, inlcuding ones that are edited to look like old photographs. The length of it was pretty good as well and some formatting was done too to make it more easily readable.
Additional Points (-0, +3):
+3 for the effort of building the ironclad ship after which this one was named
@DatFiat126Fan19 It's a very unkown ship (I mean, the only reason I know about it is because of wows too) and it seems my teaser post wasn't enough to get people interested before the post
@theNoobCountry2withM1911 this has been said a million times before, nobody got hacked. One user deleted their account, and a few others got theirs banned around the same time, then a bunch of clueless users started spreading this misinformation about hacking, but it's not what happened.
If it's supposed to be Hungarian, why did you make it with Bulgarian markings? (the flag on the tail and the roundels on the fuselage and wings are Bulgarian)
I'd like to ask for the same permission as Ayanon. I'm not certain if I'd make any public builds with it, but I'd definitely like to build a few ships using these codes for personal use or maybe for teaser videos, is that okay? I'd give credit to you on any public post of course
@BrieCheese Did you use the cockpit from this post? If not, no problem, I'll just ask a moderator to make it a successor to this post. Also no need to tag me there, just drop a comment here when you are finished uploading and I'll check out your profile to find it
@BrieCheese It's bit complex Funky Tree system. It would be a bit long to explain it here
Do you have discord account perhaps? in the Port SP server I have a detailed guide to it. (invite link)
@Mousewithamachinegun122 Yup, a lot has happened since then, but I'm quite proud of my first year (as I am of most of the years of my SP work), I reached a lot of achievements
As far as I know there is no way. Best you can do is go through who upvoted your builds and check on their profiles one by one but ofc that's very tedious and time consuming
@Hoawdie Well, it's preferred to build the ship entirely by yourself, but you can use assets from others (with proper credit of course), although expect some score deduction for it (the more borrowed parts you use, the more points would be deducted from your final score)
@KSB24 Glad I could help with a big info then. That user has a history of using taken builds as challenge entries (or just uploading taken builds or parts without credit in general) so if you are planning another challenge in the future, I recommend checking entries extra carefully
Also if you got two other random pings, those were me too, I tried to tell you this info under his post but he deleted my comments both times and blocked me, showing that he is trying to hide the truth about the build's origins
I'd say my biggest recent disappointment was my Olympic and Titanic. They both got over 50 upvotes but for the amount of work I put into them, I expected at least about 80-ish upvotes, but unfortunately I screwed up by making them be too many parts so most players couldn't even try them out.
Hey there! your ships are awesome, really well made. I figured I'd let you know that there is a discord server dedicated to ship building in SP, where we share our building progress, help each other, have some events and so on. If you are interested, I'll leave an invite link here, I hope you dont mind: >>clicky<<
@PapaKernels Yea, device limitation is a pain (hence why I put the 2500 limit in the beginning, to give low-end users a chance)
Still, it's not a bad entry and you can be very proud of yourself for being able to do this much even with your device limitations.
