No problem...

but it won't let me...
i tried the skin last night and it still didnt work...i shall try again when i get home.

i COULD send you, keltos, the tower that i got set up, with the stuff i got set up, and hopefully you can find a way to get them in the game. because Pack3d (the only S3D like program that works) says it's not an object...

but my work shall continue!

I purposedly removed that range finder seen at the back of the tub.., as for the rest : a lot of 3d work to be done, one step at a time though, I'd rather first play the campaign than have all those details in, cause I haven't played in months !! just started the game to check on my changes...
(edit) forgot to say here that the hull is a sneak preview of sledgehammers' work !!!
keltos



So I should move the rod antenna seen here on the left to the back tube of the periscope stand, and move both periscopes forward. so the tower model actually lack a tube in the periscope stand... :hmm:

Interesting that it says that the Japanese submariners were among the elite. It's been said on subsim that the submariners were the bottom of the class. So, is it correct? Granted, the person who said the submariners were the bottom of the class probably didn't quote a source.

It does say 'the elite of the Japanese Navy' Maybe that's the catch phrase?

In a way they were the elite of the navy, sub service sailors were hand picked and had to go trough the sub Naval academy in Etajima, no exeptions, late in the way the training course was cut down, but still had to go to the academy, because of need of replacements fast, but before the war it was a long hard road for japanese sailors in sub school so im preaty sure they were the most educated sailors in the Imperial Japanese Navy

yeah yeah yeah, couldn't help but try it, didn't have time to fix the tower yet as you can see.. speaking of which : there's a hatch on deck that has a wood texture, I just noticed it cause your texture was perfect ! I never noticed it before, but we have to fix this, it's the only thing I see now...

keltos

ps : if you find a way to fix the tower as well we'd be more than happy !

I-25,

Do you have other pictures or drawing showing that camouflage scheme seen on picture of the conning tower of I-36 ?

and of the interior of japanese submarines ? those pictures are good but I would like you to scan them at 300 dpi and post them on filefront for me to download so we could finally start modifying the german interior into a more japanese one

It is also a good picture for the type 22 radar, although those underwater shots of the sunken I-52 are awesome !

Do you by any chance have any references as to the 3d model used in that book ? Anyone we could contact to get it ? it looks much more detailed than the current one we have i.e. the holes in the hangar covering.

I will try and make that rangefinder as well, unless Peabody needs another break ?

thanks

keltos

I also removed the bar thingies around the deck gun as I saw none around on I-25's schematics.
