Queen Elizabeth carriers
Could anyone make scenery for the QE class ships please as we now have all the RN helicopters and the F35 that they carry. FS9, FSX and P3D would ideal.

Re: Queen Elizabeth carriers
I had thought about that a few months back but decided against it after doing a bit of research. There was very little available in the way of detailed 3 view diagrams to import into Gmax to model from. If that's changed, and a quick trawl suggest it might not have, I might consider it again. At the moment though, I've just started the Merlin variants.

There is an FSX model over at Sim-Outhouse. You may be able to compile it as an FS9 scenery object using MCX and then position it where you need.

Re: Queen Elizabeth carriers
I tried that with a Russian warship but it failed ab the parts were in the wrong place after conversion.

Re: Queen Elizabeth carriers
The sketchup warehouse has a (few) Queen Elizabeth models that can be converted over to the sim of your choice. I know this doesn't really help the community add it to their sim but if someone wants it enough there is the option. I made one a while ago but it was pretty basic (again done in sketchup).

Re: Queen Elizabeth carriers
How do you harden the deck so that AI aircraft can operate on it?

Re: Queen Elizabeth carriers
During conversion to a flightsim object with MCX the auto-platform function allows creation of hard surfaces.
I've used the model as a static carrier with your F-35s and as an AI Boat landing on it with the Dino F35.

This one is better : https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model/ ... -Elizabeth
But you need (for all Sketchup models from Warehouse) to ask the author's authorisation before convert it and share it here for FS AI

Re: Queen Elizabeth carriers
I think I covered the usage of Sketchup models and sharing with the community in my previous post. It's also worth noting if you are going to convert and use some sketchup models that after converting with MCX and importing that they can still be quite hard on frame rates.TheFoufure wrote: ↑15 May 2021, 06:25

Re: Queen Elizabeth carriers
If they are when the models are placed out at sea, they must be pretty dire frame-rate-wise.

The one that 'Thefoufure' has pictured will be without a doubt trouble.
