Super Battleship Yamato

Description
1:1 scale rebuild of the Battleship Yamato

its just over 400,000 blocks, so needless to say it is going to lag an absolut ton.

the ship also features a serise of custom weaponry.

-3 tripple barreld main cannons
-2 tripple barreld secondary cannons
-6 dual barreld heavy flack cannons
-8 dual barreld light flack cannons
-and a large array of gattling turrets

the ship has no interior as i am currently at the limits of my computer.
and most of the interior space is used for all of its propulsion and gyroscopes.


the main control seat is located in the upper half of the superstructure.

to activate the turrets you need to activate its respective "designator" group, the groups are:
1-main cannons
2-secondary cannons
3-anti air cannon (AAC)
4-anti air flack (AAF)
5-Machine gun posts


i will eventually convert this to the Arpeggio of blue steel version. it just depends on how well my computer handels it.

Vanilla version :

I've been working on an Arpeggio Takao Battleship myself, 1:1, though I'm using mostly large blocks with small blocks as all the cable lines and detailed content. It's very tedious. This looks great!

That's a small grid?! Holy balls batman, that's crazy. Havn't had time to load it up, kinda obvious now that I look at it, didn't even occur to me that it could be small grid... Damn...

Yeah I don't think there's much to help with framerate then. (I tried building a scale model of one of my huge builds and only got a few thousand blocks in before I threw in the towel...) I mean, yeah the sun rotation could still help, and you might be able to save yourself a few thousand polygons with one of those mods that remove the block border things, might be worth it... Anyways, still a great build, more impressive considering it's size to be small grid...

Its not a station because:
A- small grids cannot be a station
B- i wanted to be able to fly it

And as the ship is vanilla, excluding the turrets, you cant use interior blocks as they are large grid only.

1. Fucking fantastic. Love the Yamato. :steamhappy:

2.Nice curve work on the hull especially, trying to do that stuff always kills me.

3. You may already know all this but, do you have it set as a "Station"? That helps enourmously with these over the top builds. As well as turning off sun rotation. And avoid "Interior wall" blocks like the plague, those things for some reason are actually rather resource heavy... And while it's really cool to use, turret ai and such is also kind of a hog...
