@FLOWRIDER0 I've a bunch of these old vehicles too, but yknow what I'm thinking? there should actually be a place (maybe a discord server, or just an accessible google document) with links to all the old deleted builds so that it's all in one place. That'd be great
I can never understand why people decide to delete their profiles. Like, ok you wanna leave this community but come on, these profiles have dozens or hundreds of awesome builds that will be lost forever (unless some other users have them all saved down but I doubt that every single build that was ever lost would be saved).
Why can't people just announce they are leaving and then just leave, never come back to the site, but dont delete their profiles. Now new players won't be able to play around with those cool builds.
It's as if a painter would decide to burn all his paintings before he dies.. all that work lost
Also RIP Bogdan, he really was a great builder. (Btw could someone tell me why did he leave?)
I think your builds are the absolute best use of funky trees, I don't even know how can you make these very complicated inputs but you are absolutely amazing in it. Don't care about haters who say your stuff is bad just because it's anime. I personally actually like the anime characters you made, not because I like anime anyways but because of how well you build them, they actually look like they just stepled out of an anime and they look great, well built. But again, those who say your builds are bad just because of the exterior design are clearly haters and you shouldn't consider them as valid criticism, because those comments come from their personal hatred against anime and not against your build. Keep up with your work, many of us love what you do and always waiting to see what you create next, so ignore the haters. You are a great builder! Don't care about what haters say, build whatever you want :D
As for your question about the word weeb: it was initially created (it came from the word "weaboo" which means the same but "weeb" is shorter) to refer to people who are obsessed with japanese culture in a really disrespectful way. Note that weeb =/= anime fan. Many people like to confuse the two and refer to anime fans as weebs but that is wrong. There's nothing bad with liking manga and anime, there's also nothing wrong with liking japanese culture. The problem is when a person is so overly obsessed with japanese culture (without having any actualy knowledge about it) that they become annoying, weird and also become disrespectful towards it because they have no real knowledge about it. By definition, a japanese person can't even be a weeb because japanese usually have a general sense about their own culture and don't became ignorant idiots like the actual weebs in other countries.
So by basic, weeb is a negative word, and there's nothing bad with that as long as it is used correctly, on the people it should be used on: people who aren't just obsessed with japanese culture but are so crazy about it that they get annoyimg and disrespectul against japanese culture.
Also your question about the meaning of anime outside of japan. Well, from what I can tell, anime for people outside of japan usually either means those specific, japanese made, unique style (big "anime eyes", big heads etc.) animated motion pictures, but it also sometimes used to refer to the style itself (say if there's a video game that also has this specific design, we call it an "anime game"). Manga is usually differentiated from anime but there are people who often call mangas as "animes" because they don't know/care it has different name.
But in general, we refer to stuff as anime that are: made in japan, has this specific drawing style/design, has those usual clichés and character types/story elements (big robots, cat girls, story takes place in Japan etc.)
@WarHawk95 yeah that's what I meant by the second recommendation: "or if you do so and win, then give the code to someone who doesn't have SR2", that someone can be a friend of course. However, the reason I think that maybe you should't enter the giveaway is that what if you give the code that friend, and he/she doesn't like it that much, they will just leave it to collect dust in their steam library, meanwhile those who entered the giveaway truly wish for the game. But that's just my opinion, you are free to enter if you want of course
@WarHawk95 Ah yeah sorry about that, I deleted the comment myself because I didn't want to get disqualifed. My comment was that if you own the game, maybe you shouldn't enter the giveaway or if you do so and win, then give the code to someone who doesn't have SR2
Note: I accidentally wrote "quad AA guns" on the second thumbnail picture. The usable AA guns on the ship are NOT quad guns but single barrel ones. Sorry for this mistake.
@Tang0five they marked battleship divisions and individual battleships so that friendly planes can more easily identify them from the sky. The forward two turrets marked the battleship division (div. 1 was red, div. 2 was white div. 3 was blue, div. 4 was black, div. 5 was yellow) while turret number 4 marked the ship itself.
For Example, Arizona, Nevada and Oklahoma were part of Battleship Div. 1 and as such, their number 1 and 2 turrets were painted red (with each one of them having different colored number 4 turrets according to their sections: Arizona's No.4 turret was red as she was the division's lead ship, Nevada's No.4 turret was white, Oklahoma's No.4 turret was blue)
Similarly, ships of Battleship Div. 2-3-4-5 all had different colors on their No.1 and No.2 turrets (for example, USS Tennessee was the lead ship of Div. 2, so her forward turrets were white while her number 4 turret was red)

@MintLynx Yeah. When I built my USS Texas replica, I thought, why not have a walk on it (that's where the idea for that video came from), and boy did it feel so huge. When building these, it feels like I'm just playing with lego or something, but when I spawn on them with a human figure and start walking, that is when I really feel their size and it's amazing.
A little teaser for my new USS Arizona build, I hope you like it!
Sorry for the laggy parts but the total number of parts on the spawned builds (The Arizona itself, the scenery battleships, and the sailor) in the second part of the video is close to 3000 (or more) so my computer was struggling.
I tried spicing up the video a little bit with sound effects, I know they are a bit lame but I think they do the job.
@Warman1225 that is because you need to use the mouse joystick control (press the right mouse button to activate/deactivate it) and not the keyboard buttons. When you activate that control, youu hover your cursor on the screen and the guns will rotate accordingly. If you stop at a certain point, you wait until the gun comes to a halt too, and then you can turn off the AG and the gun will stay in place. :)
I see you are new so here's a little advice, don't forget to credit the original author if you use stuff from them. Also a list of controls would be useful too so that people don't have to figure them out themselves. Anyways, nice work, the hull looks quite good.
@MintLynx Most of the tank isn't made by him tho, check out the predecessors. He just improved on it which is great but the base was made by someone else. still nice work with the additional details
@AndrewGarrison Okay so, at this point it's clear that something is wrong with the nvidia graphics card so I just set the game to use my integrated one and suddenly it works again. I suspect that the latest driver update I installed causes the problem so I'm just gonna wait for the next update and hoping that that one will solve it, until then, I'll use the game with the integrated card.
Thank you for trying to help :)
@AndrewGarrison Well I updated my graphics card drivers through Nvidia's Geforce exprience app and the whole problem only started after that. I tried reinstalling the driver updates now, as well as manually looking for the latest driver updates on nvidia's website and installing that but none of those solved the problem. As for reinstalling DirectX, I have no idea how to do that, I tried looking for it on the internet but nothing worked, every directx installer I found says that I have the latest version of DirectX and there's no need for installation.
@AndrewGarrison There's none (since the game can't even properly start up it probably doesn't create one) the only log file that is created is the one in the second link (that one isn't created in the game the Steam game library in theSimplePlanes_Data folder, but instead in AppData/LocalLow/Jundroo/Simpleplanes/)
@AndrewGarrison I tried removing the mod folder completely (placing it outside of the game library) as well as doing a clean install but it didn't solve the problem
@volcanicus75 Actually quite a few ships had red paint on their turrets in Pearl Harbor. The ships' number 1, 2 and 4 turrets were all painted specific colors so that friendly aircraft can recognise them easier.
For Example, Arizona, Nevada and Oklahoma were part of Battleship Div. 1 and as such, their number 1 and 2 turrets were painted red (with each one of them having different colored number 4 turrets according to their sections: Arizona's No.4 turret was red as she was the division's lead ship, Nevada's No.4 turret was white, Oklahoma's No.4 turret was blue)
