Shipbucket parts for the Ship Picture Generator

[hipper]

Hello,

I resized and changed several parts from pictures from the site www.shipbucket.com/ for use with the Ship Picture Generator. This should give the generated images the Shipbucket look in miniature. First Version is mainly intended for WW2-style Battleships. I recommend manually placing Turrets and Funnels.

Authors with their pictures are credited in a file in the downloaded folder. Should this project not be in conflict with the Creative-Commons License used by Shipbucket and be somewhat popular I will probably also eventually cover Carriers, Cruisers and older ships.

Preview attached.

Oh wow, very nice! Do they also work with the initial generation of the base hull?

[EDIT] Works like a charm! Thanks!


(Pic is slightly bugged, somehow when I switch part sets the "old" hull stays behind)

Incredibly well done!

This produces great results so far! I feel it might be more flexible if the big pieces were cut up into smaller ones, but that could be done incrementally.

Would it be possible to use a shipbucket parts sheet and then save those parts as a set. I.e using the following and saving say France as Set 5?

If this gets tweaked just a Weeee bit more I am using it with every ship. Looks fantastic.

Maybe it could be incorporated into a future patch

hmssophia is doing really fantastic work on making player designs in shipbucket

The Wargamer review said the game is fantastic but the visuals could be spruced up...

When I played RTW1 I always made a profile for every ship, even though the on-average 10-minute slow-down was a big speedbump to my play style. When I started testing RTW2 I stopped, simply because I needed to get through as much game as possible, though I found that with 6 draw lines instead of 4 that the top-down views were adequate to my mind. Shipbucket designs are pretty enough that I would be tempted to start making profiles again, what hmssophia is doing for tortugapower is worthy of wall art.

Why are there those placeholder turrets like TurretFwd and TurretAft?

I've been dabbling around with ship pictures myself a little lately. Here's my BB Kaga class, 1920 start. She was under construction when I started the game.

Woah nice garychildress, did you use a ship pack or base to make that awesome image??? This is my version of the Kongo and Fuso, using CCIP's sets with All parts ship sets. Fusou1.bmp (300.05 KB)Kongo I0.bmp (300.05 KB)
