Man the Guns Ship Models Fix

This mod fixes the previously missing ship models from "Man the Guns Expansion" in the ship designer.


The fixed ship models:
=================


Generic:

- Converted aircraft carrier model


England:

- Nelson class - Early battleship model

- County class - Early heavy cruiser model


United States of America

- New mexico class - Early battleship model

- Pensacola class - Early heavy cruiser model


These models can be selected in the ship designer from the "Man the Guns" Expansion
===================================================================



The idea behind this mod:
====================


Previously you could select all of the ship models in the ship designer, these included the base game ship models and the "Man the Guns Expansion" ship models, but sadly either in the "No Step Back" or in the "By Blood Alone" update they messed it up so these models are no longer available in the ship designer.

A user had a mod recommendation in the comment section of my first Hearts of Iron IV mod so I thought why not.



For the advanced users:
===========================================================================


The base game AI by itself will never select the correct ship model for the correct ship class, so at the start of the game everything has to be set perfectly for the AI.

What you see about a specific ship class, the model wich appears on the map might differ from what you see in the ship designer.

In the ship designer if a 1936 carrier hull is set to the "Use best Match" option in the models tab it will show the "generic converted aircraft carrier model" wich is not historical since all of the 1936 hull CVs in the game were proper aircraft carriers by that time IRL, but on the map it will show the "generic aircraft carrier model" wich is a bit more historical.

For example:

The british "Queen Elizabeth class battleship" shows the bit more modern "King George the V class battleship" model in the designer when it is set to the default "Use Best Match" option, but on the map it will show the earlier "Nelson class battleship" model.

The japanese "Ryujo class aircraft carrier" shows the older "generic converted aircraft carrier" model in the designer when it is set to the default "Use Best Match" option, but on the map it will show the bit more modern "generic aircraft carrier" model.

===========================================================================


Works perfectly, no issues with animation/sound

Even if it says that the version of the mod is outdated, it should still work with no problems

Errors and Issues are unknown (please report them to me if you find any)

Mod compatibility is unknown but I think it should function with no issues
if you dont have any other mods enabled wich mess with ship models

Feel free to contact me if you have any ideas / questions, or if you want to modify it.



Enjoy!
