The LCI was introduced 1943 shortly after the landings on Guadalcanal. It was primarily designed by the need to transport troops from England to the shores of Normandy. This first model was not fitted for longer ranges. Shortly after the first version the second version was developed for longer voyages in the pacific campaign. The two versions are distinguished by the upper structure. This model is the second version for the pacific campaign. There were many smaller sub-versions with some minor differences in details.
The preview pictures are made with Cinema4D.
USAGE:
Included is a detailed model with.
The model consists of 233729 polygons and 44 objects.
The model is included in Collada and OBJ format. Collada is supported by all modern rendering programs. In Collada all the groupings and turning axis are preserved on their places, so I recommend to use the Collada file if your program supports it. In OBJ format there are no groupings and all axis are in 0/0/0. In OBJ you have to put all the axis in the middle of the turning points by yourself. For OBJ there are two additional files for the ramps. One for the stowed ramps on deck and one for the ramps in place in a landing. I did it so because in Poser you can import the files separately. For all other user who import the Collada file, please switch on or off the desired parts.
There are some non-UV-map materials, for the black hole parts, glass and the mirror of the search lights. Please adjust the colors and parameters in your program. The deck is detached from the model, so you can apply a high res texture yourself for close ups.
