I was lucky in that i work with animation everyday, on films and the like,and the
chance to add to a game thats given alot,came up. I'm looking foreward to it too

For those who want a sneak preview of the animations

BTW,The avis are xvid and don't stream

Great addition, Thunder!!!!!!

Privateer/Thunder,are you guys doing animation only for the men sitting in the lifeboats? Or are you going to make some men "swimming" in the water and maybe waving occasionally for help?

The Animations for Sub crew work just a bit differently.
With abit of work they could be changed now.
Or new animations for Sub crew added.

Quite a funky Mod... Adds so much raw feeling to the game....

CptGrayWolf · 04-30-08, 02:25 AM

I'm sorry, so what is new with the latest version? Are the survivors animated now?

Not released yet.

How rude of me; I d/l the latest version a few days ago without thanking those involved in making it possible. Well done Rubini et al for a mod that is now gracing both my GWX 2.1 and S-Boot installs. Much appreciated.

Murr44 · 04-30-08, 06:33 AM

It's a very well done mod & thank you for releasing it.

It was kind of creepy trying it out for the first time. Fortunately SH3 is only a game, otherwise I'd feel pretty guilty about leaving those men to die out there...

Correct.
We have not released them yet because they must be tested to insure
no CTDs.
Animation work and importing new animations to SH3 is not a given.
If we just dumped the first animations without testing?
And people hit CTD's?
I'd never hear the end of it.
You get them when I say they are good to go.

Thanks Jaesen and also thanks to all you guys...sorry for my absence...between some RL duties...I´m cooking some goodies...

The last news?

Well, now the lifeboats really appears from few to several minutes before the ship sink (depends on ship damage...). Some minutes ago my LBoats appeared 17 min before the ship go down and all worked very well without any flaw, any premature LB release, etc. Very good!
I guess that this new more realistic way to LB appears and some others goodies will be ready in some few days ahead!!

Reece · 04-30-08, 08:51 PM

I wait in anticipation, the mod so far is excellent, many thanks.

Hartmann · 04-30-08, 09:33 PM

Great work !!

i´m waiting for the animated version

i torpedoed one ship of a small convoy of two ships and the destroyer ignores the lifeboats because was too busy in a depth charge attack

, i had to use the camera to see the lifeboats

Great news Rubini....looking forward to it

I wonder......would an escort steam through a group of lifeboats to press the attack ?
