Guest matt31896 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Would it be possible to make a coast guard cutter that has the capabilities to launch a dolphin, mako/stingray, sea king, pelican, or jayhawk and have artillery?USCG Cutter: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick the greek Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 And what about scripts? It will need tons of new scripts animations and I don't know what else in order to make it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest matt31896 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I'm getting the animations and scripting to be done by helpers(if I can find any this time that is )! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mrpolice1996 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 What would you use the artillery for on EM4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomperson139 Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 What would you use the artillery for on EM4?They can be watercannons like on the big fire boat...... I don't know...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MGC|Uthog Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Just for looks i think, but where you want to use this boat? i think it has more use ifyou make a sub mod with USCG station and this boat as object next to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppah Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Cannons like these on a boat ship like that are probably impossible or it would require nearly impossible scripting knowledge to realize that. It's not something I am going to try to create. The other features mentioned in the first post might be possible though. On what map do you want the use the ship anyway? The new LA Mod map does not have alot of water nor does any of the freeplaymaps do. The only map suitable for a ship of that size would be the map of the oilrig mission. The real ship looks awesome though. I love aircraft carriers.Hoppah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Wulf Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Better just if you skin the cannons, but let them be only as good-looking dummies, doing nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest matt31896 Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 1) The artilery will be a dummy, doing nothing but having good looks.2) I might make a new mission, a boat is sinking, like the on in the riot at the harbor mission in Em3, but in the middle of nowhere, in the Pacific Ocean, in shark-infested waters if the game allows so.3) Should I make this a USCG submod, IDK?EDIT: Yes, I'm aware that Hoppah is making the HG-65 in the additinal units submod before anybody says anything about it.

Xplorer4x4 Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I agree with Hoppah. I really see no reason for it. Hell in freeplay the coast guard chopper serves no use really, much less a ship of this size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest matt31896 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 It's not like I can't make new missions and tweak freeplay some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Taylor Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 The only use I can see for it is a base for the USCG helicopter and when the new units mod comes out, the other stuff. Then it'll launch or something from that. Have the heli land on that ,and all that jazz. However, it'd require a crapload of scripting, and it would be like the police station. In other words, it's just sit there looking pretty in the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest matt31896 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I have ideas for this thing, BTW it can also launch inflatable boats like the ones in the Additional Units submod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CptThade Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 What we have here is a United States Coast Guard High Endurance Cutter (WHEC) more specifically of the Hamilton Class of cutters. Their primary missions are High seas search and rescue, and the enforcement of laws and treaties, meaning these ships are usually deployed away from land and support bases for extended amount of times, they are equipped with a 3 inch main deck gun, as well as several RHI (Rigid Hull Inflatable Boats) and these class cutters have a flight deck that can accommodate a MH-65 Dolphin. The current USCG helo in game is a HH-60J "Jayhawk", and these are not able to land on the WHECs, so that's a no go right there. Also to be noted the USCG Defenders that are going to be coming out in the additional units sub-mod are not carried aboard this type of vessel, and are generally launched from the shore as a port security and mid range search and rescue craft. Sorry if I went on a bit of an information deluge but hey, someone has to straiten out the facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
