There's a surpising amount of people in a part of the SP community who don't hang around the site, more specifically on Discord, who feel that if things are to a painful amount of hyper-realistic detail, then what you've created is absolute trash and shouldn't even exist. I'd guess it would be ironic to say most of their own "superior" creations tend to fall either into the trappings of fictional designs they usually call out, or are just shameless copies of real equipment that just one way or another performs worse than what they copied.
Just an example, I was asked on Discord what type of ceramic I used for one of my vehicle's armor, I'm not even kidding with that...
Not hate towards the busy devs or the question in general, but it took something like a year just for them to increase the maximum size of fuselage blocks from 5 to 10, doubt they'd get around for something like tweaking the engines in a decent time, especially now.
What's with all the mods being in SPMC?
Like, I get its a place everyone knows each other already and know what to expect and blah blah, but kinda feel it might cause an echo chamber, like what happened with Official Discord Staff.
How somethimg that takes the appearance of very little work recieves so many upvotes and spotlights, things I've considered almost my entire time here as gestures of recognition from people that you made something they like and they appreciate your work, when some of your best stuff gets absolutely nothing, it's genuinely a disgrace.
I may not agree with everything said in the forum, but the sentiment of "upvote for meme value" on something that isn't even a meme is just bad.
Would definitely love to have this fixed, been having to deal with it since I first began playing, and it's genuinely the worst bug in SP's designer imo.
Wasn't CptJacobson banned from SP a few months back for actively stealing large chunks of peoples builds, just to pass them off as his own? not to mention, and this can be subjective, but me and a lot of others from my former SLRP find him a pretty bad RP'er
I'd put money on Halcyon for the sole reason the country has absurd amounts of equipment you'd expect from 10 years in the future (which I guess is expected from the RP since everyone likes to throw around "2030" and "2045" and etc in posts), yet has WMDs you'd expect from 100 years in the future with literally no explanation how, or any sort of infrastructure to even remotely support such a super weapon.
Not to mention they apparently have the most advanced transport, landing craft, and resource management systems because they can just manage to land massive armies on small hostile islands with no repercussions to supply, infrastructure, moral, or loss of allied life.
Though, CRV does have a really nice and well put together emblem/flag.
I found this quite a wonderful plane, it flew amazingly well and turned like nothing else.
The weapons too were pretty fun to use, petting me able to sink the USS Tiny while turning around to attack the Wright Convoy.
The only complaints I have over this aircraft is maybe seeing about moving the primary wing back a little bit so CoM wasn't right on top of CoL, which I think would help with difficulties I had taking off.
Its that, and maybe the cockpit should be a bit taller, but aside from those minor gripes, its a well made and detailed aircraft. I especially enjoyed the cockpit view.
cough cough the only thing not to scale would like be the dummy, the thing you said why "this is one massive vehicle"
So yeah, I'm pretty tired of hearing people from IDA just coming up and acting all superior with vehicles that can't drive straight in some cases, don't build in scale just to complain to others about scale, and cough cough uncalled for insults and threats
@KerlonceauxIndustries
Ah, yes, defaulting to the "not to scale" excuse, y'know, the one that might as well be "just because"?
.
Edit: isn't it also ironic for you to claim my to-scale Psuedo-MBT is giant, just for when the same claim is made your way just for you to say "it's not to scale"?
@KerlonceauxIndustries
I've stated this in another post on the same subject, its just theres a few people who absolutely refuse to use Discord (for various reasons I don't believe), and I'm pretty close to announcing SLRP move to Discord and anyone who can't will be left behind.
Yeah, I guess I can send some support your way.
I've got a cargo ship mostly filled with my expeditionary force in the Pacific that I can redirect to your islands.
That, and a ballistic missile submarine.
I've got an older nation which needs some info updated, the Ostpreußen Reich. Its got a flag and lore which needs to be added to the prior listed forum, capability to produce domestic vehicles, and I've been past gold longer than a fair few people on the site.
I would be interested in contributing to a new MBT since developing AFVs is what I've spent most my time focusing on the past few years.
Yeah, as long as credit is given, I'm well beyond fine.
And be aware, the cockpit is inside the optic on the top of the gun, just to make taking it off a bit easier.
@TheFantasticTyphoon
No disrespect to you getting into it, since its like practically the ciuntry club around here, though find it kinda odd there's so many Mods (and a Dev for a while too) in there.
@SupremeDorian
I've just built my tanks with actual spaced armor, it makes them pretty survivable against modeled shells, and works absolute wonders when all parts are set to DisconnectOnly
Add the XML attribute "maxSpeed" and add whatever number you want in its separate space, with Overload

+7Like, I get its a place everyone knows each other already and know what to expect and blah blah, but kinda feel it might cause an echo chamber, like what happened with Official Discord Staff.
I'm pretty much here with Aeromen, since CptJacobson had become very known to steal parts from people in the SLRP server after two users uploaded a whole host of evidence, and in some instances he did himself.
+7Overall, I know he had stolen a whole turret of a tank from Waemoth, then later inadvertently admitted to "taking inspiration" from Waemoth's turret despite it looking very obviously he had straight ripped it from Waemoth's tank.
Not to mention he has ripped an indeterminate amount of someone else's ship for his own that I believe hasn't been uploaded.
And overall, this one picture of a post he made on SP pretty much sums up his skills at running a country.
If the above links aren't showing my opinion on CptJacobson being a spotlight, then I'm not really sure what will...
Though, it's whoever's decision, being Jim1the1Squid's suggestion apparantly.

it's trying it's best, diets only do so much

Almost always depend on those when looking at stuff with custom thumbnails or custom designers.
+5Trees that got some groove
+5Would definitely love to have this fixed, been having to deal with it since I first began playing, and it's genuinely the worst bug in SP's designer imo.
+5Kinda feel like there could be more mods, might end up ending a fair few of the gripes people have.
+5love checking into SP just to get gatekeeped over a Sherman
+5Alright, everyone quit with this witch hunting nonsense.
+5Last thing we want is more shenanigans after yesterday.
The Luftwaffe is slowly building up a backlog of 109s to contest British airspace in the coming weeks

+4Can't wait to obtain this thing through such illegal means, that it loops back around into being legal.
+3Can it stand up to the Giga Char 2C though?
+3Devs used to quite a lot a few years ago, but by now its mostly just the mods occasionally upvoting.

Ah, such lovely choices of liveries;
+3-slighty grey white
-slightly dark white
-slightly greyer white
though 163rd Squadron I find the best grey
That's a weird looking hotdog.
+3I'm just curious, but how's this any different from the numerous ahistorical RPs already done of WW2?

was kinda thinking you went along with the joke at first, but, like...

There's SPMRP, but it's no longer on Discord. It got moved to an unlisted post from what I hear.
