[VEHICLE][WIP]USS Nathan James DDG-151 (US Navy Destroyer)
-
@nathanjamesddg151 We just didn't do it
I started with it when I was bored but never finished it. I even modded in a Tomahawk model.
-
@Oskar Oh yeah... I think I remember you posting about that. I think we were all bummed we couldn't get the gun working fully and we just kinda gave up.
-
@nathanjamesddg151 But yeah, this update could be a game changer for the mod if we could get the gun fully working.
-
@Oskar It would be. It would allow us to do so much more and make it work so much better, and hopefully make it run so much smoother.
-
@Oskar it also occurs to me that we should check the handling file for the boat. That’ll give us more insight
-
@Oskar @SkylineGTRFreak I think I managed to find the weapons data in the handling file. It's been years since I looked at handling data, but this seems a bit more advanced than what I remember. Take a look and tell me your thoughts.

@Oskar The guided missile function for the submarine is kinda cool. You don’t select a coordinate on the map but rather you actually steer the missile like a drone. There are also homing missiles you can control when the sub is moving. This might give us native homing missiles on boats, which would be nice.
-
@nathanjamesddg151 Yeah, like I thought. The guided missile isn't a native weapon.
I bought a submarine in GTA Online today (was too poor for sonar and the guided missiles). It's still hella fun roaming around the map and sinking other subs with torpedo attacks.
-
@Oskar Lol yeah. It would still be pretty cool to add those missiles to the James if possible. I was watching a vid of the submarine and saw that they have a lot of interior details that could be added, like a galley/mess deck (cafeteria), sleeping quarters, engine room, and so on
-
@Oskar there’s also a weaponized dingy, I’ll try and find the handling data for that as well.

@Oskar I heard from @SkylineGTRFreak. Apparently (previously) Rockstar had actively blocked weapons from the boat class (for whatever reason). he's waiting for the scripthook update so he can test it, but if it works, then I think we'll be in business.
-
@nathanjamesddg151 Great!
-
@Oskar Yeah. Apparently another user found out about Rockstar actively blocking weapons on the boat class and he created a script to counteract it, although it was somewhat buggy. Hopefully, with this update, we won't need a script to make the weapons work.
-
@Oskar The missile launch animation from the submarine looks dope. Do you think we can use it for the James? Also, I'm not sure, but I think they did some updates to the water, particularly the wake around the boats.
EDIT: Scripthook has been updated, so we should find out soon enough if this will work.
-
Does anyone know if the submarine is classified as a boat or is it a separate class?
-
@nathanjamesddg151 I doubt we'll be able to use GTA Online scripts but I actually never tried so maybe. At least it should be possible to recreate it.
-
@Oskar that’s good. Like I mentioned in the above post, I think they updated the water interaction or something. It looks somewhat different. I’m not sure if this will affect anything but it’s worth noting. I guess what I’m getting at is that I remember the James having rough handling, and since the sub is by far the largest water vehicle, it’s possible they updated how the water interacts with boats.
-
@nathanjamesddg151 Did you hear anything new from Skyline yet?
-
@Oskar not yet. He was waiting for the script hook update, which only came out yesterday, so I think he may be working on it. We’ll find out soon enough though. I’ll contact him after Christmas if we don’t hear anything.
-
@Oskar do you know if we can do custom animations yet? It’s been a while and I’m not sure what has changed with zmodeler or openiv. It would be cool if we could animate a torpedo coming out of the torpedo tubes.
-
@nathanjamesddg151 Uhh I really don't know, haven't been into GTA modding for a long time :P
Another thing, as far as I can remember the last version of the James already had a really good handling but we could maybe make use of the submarine as it handles pretty well in the water (well it's the first bigger naval vehicle in GTA).
-
@Oskar hmm... I also haven’t played gta in a while. Maybe my memory of the handling is a bit fuzzy. As for the animations, I guess we’ll find out soon enough.
As for the sub handling, I guess we could, although I’m not entirely sure if the sub is classified as a boat or is it’s own class of vehicle.
