Mid-1960s TYPHON CGN from 1973 LONG BEACH: Looking for resources to update the visual model
Greetings,

I am working on a mod for a 1960s USN TYPHON missile cruiser based upon BuShips Scheme 59H CGN.

59H was based upon a LONG BEACH with the following updates:

* Length is about 12 meters longer
* Carries AN/SPG-59 Multi-function PESA radar
* Carries RIM-50A Typhon LR and RIM-55A Typon MR
* Carries Mk 10 GMLS (80 Typhon LR forward, 40 Typhon LR aft)
* Carries Mk 13 GMLS (40 Typhon MR, one forward, one aft, two amidship port and starboard)
* AN/SQS-26 instead of -23

I have been using https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3369747503 as a guide to work through the process of modifying the existing LONG BEACH 1973 vessel into a new ship. I have successfully removed the unnecessary FCR, Mk 7 GMLS aft, Mk 30 5" mounts and associated FCR. I also moved the Mk 10 "superfiring" mount aft.

However, the visual model has some issues; there are some portions of the mounts I removed still showing on the model, while some of the parts I'd like to move don't seem to show in the vessel.ini file for me to move.

Given what other modders have been able to accomplish creating "kit bashing", I feel like I am missing something with regard to updating the visual model. Are there any resources which describe how I can update the visual models?

Thank you,
Chris
