Visual damage
Is it possible somehow to add visual damage to Iambecomelifes ships coming with OMEGU ?
Which files are responsible for that ?

They are SH3 conversions that do not have the "damaged ship" interior textures that were first introduced in SH4.
Technically it is possible, but I honestly could never do conversions for all 45-50 of my current models in a reasonable timeframe.

One of the Tools I'm working on will allow you to select a damage model
from a generic list and place it in a converted dat. So say you build an internal damage model for one ship. Several ships could use this model right? (they don't need to fit perfectly) On conversion, you select the Damage model you want and it's planted automagically. |

I have questions!
I gather OMEGU adds new ships without visual damage modeling... Does OM (without OMEGU) add new ships? If so, do they have correct damage modeling? Also, privateer, don't take this wrong mate but are you being helpful or taunting an old rival? I'm unfamiliar with the history of SH4 modder wars, sorry, but is there any chance you might share this tool of yours with lurker? Assuming he's interested... |

OM adds loads of new ships, most of them conversions of IABL's Merchant Fleet Mod. They look real pretty.
They have correct damage modeling, in that they take damage and sink correctly (using OM's slower sinking model). But visually no. Hit it with a torpedo and you won't see a hole in it. The damage is there, but you won't see any visual confirmation of it. |

Aside from the hole (which I likely wouldn't see anyway, as I don't use external camera) does everything else still work (explosions, ships breaking apart, debris)? |

Not taunting mate. As soon as the tool is completed it will be available for everyone. It will only plant the 3D damage models in the dats. All the uv mapping and such will still need to be done as normal. |
