Simply amazing new addon
« on: 30 Sep 2002, 08:02:02 »
i thought id clue everyone in here about a new addon coming from a guy called jafergon, its simply amazing:

"IÂ've almost finished my first Flashpoint addon. ItÂ's an an amphibious operations ship (Dock Landing Ship). ItÂ's based real ships like Whidbey Island class and Galicia/Rotterdam. You can walk around all 7 decks and up to two helicopters can land on the deck. You can also launch amphibious craft and vehicles from her dock (as you can see in the screenshots).

It will be abailable in two versions: static object and a fully operational ship. Helicopters can land on both versions, but only the static object version can be used with amphibious vehicles due to some problems with the OFP engine.

IÂ'm currently working on a rotating radar antenna and finishing up some details.

More screenshots tomorrow...

Jafegon"














release is hopefully next weekend

I think that USA has a similar ship called "LSD Withbey island", but the Jafaergon ship is identical to the Dutch/Spanish Rotterdamm/Galicia class.
This ship could operate up to 6 helis and carries a good pack of vehicles (mainly AAV7) that can be launched from a dock under the landing platform, usually has some kind of gun, in the case of the rotterdam and withbey a Phalanx, on the Galicia a Meroka.(usualyy high-velocity 30mm guns)
You have a good description of this impressive ship here
