New unit preview: Iver Huitfeldt class frigate

[unmerged(255172)]

Here is a render of the pride of the Danish navy, the very new Iver Huitfeldt class frigate, which our AD Øyvind just completed modelling.



This is a render from the viewport of the modelling tool, not the game engine.

Thought you'd like to see it!

WOW nice.

OK and first ^^.

Actually im reading up on HOI3 for the intricacies of Naval combat involving planes. Funny that.

You did meantion we will mostly play in the top down overview (which prolly looks alot like HOI), but that ship is really juicy. Now i hope i dont get too cuaght up in the beauty of the fleet and forget the actual battle ^^.

The new images on the games Facebook page are quite nice, there's even a Udaloy for Nimitz98!

We'll be using that model in all the screenshots we do!

Pretty sleek. How large will these models appear in game though?
If it's just that small area on the bottom of the screen that will use the models they are extremely detailed. If they'd appear full-screen the big flat areas that seem unavoidable on those modern ships could use some detailed textures or something. Not sure how much you can do about ships designed to look stealthy though.

That will be very much up to the player. We're going to limit the zooming to where you'll clip into the model, which doesn't look good.

As default, the camera/3D view has a minor part of the screen layout, but a simple keypress will toggle between it and the main map being the main panel. So you'll get a pretty good look at the models!

Always handy so you can observe a satisfying kill

Or get a good view of the nail-biting action as your task force is defending a massive missile attack

Great model you have there, hope it will look just as good in-game.
(And can i hope for a sub model next)

 

[unmerged(255172)]

Oh it will look way better in-game.

We should have a new sub model upcoming in a few days!

 

[unmerged(315649)]

Sweet!

SIMPLY GREAT !!! Im impatient to have a close look at the Carriers heheheheheheh

 

[Evilfisher]

cute ship

a great model there, really captures the bsic features of the real thing. you planning on having some higher resolution textures, as textures can really really make stuff look even more amazing

I have to say I'm not particularly happy about the model. The overall design is good, but the details, especially in the weapons loadout lets it down.
The missile well amidship where the Mk 41, Mk 56 VLS and the Mk 141 Harpoon launchers go is missing completely and it's one of the defining features of the ship.
Similarly, the CIWS are 35mm Millenium guns and not 76mm OTO as shown
