IGM Mod: New Uniform and subs skin mod for GWX or SH3...

Hi to all seawolfs on forum,

I created Imperial Germany Dress Uniforms Mod (IGM) for GWX which add dress unforms to the crew in SH3 for Officers and Petty Officers removes swastikas from all textures and user interfaces in game (GWX), add Imperial (Deutsches Kaiserreich) emblems and flags to the all German units in game.

I got idea for this mod when I playing naval arcade/simulation game ENIGMA: RISING TIDE (ERT) http://www.warfleet.net/index2.htm


Maybe somebody can create mod for SH3 In where is Germany is Kaiserreich and can WIN the WAR if players been very successful…


When my mod will pass authorisation on ModDB site http://www.moddb.com/I give you download link (I wait for it...)

Look pictures and please keep in mind that this pictures are not taken from final version of IGM Mod .


















Ahoy

Wolf, while I applaud your creativity, I question why you would use the Imperial Germany insignia for a WWII simulation? It's not accurate...and that's what's important, accuracy.

But, in fairness, I'll send Herr Lehman a request to repaint all the German subs in Mary Kay pink...

Hi!

One reason to use Imperial (or Weimar Republic) markings may be because displaying the swastika is illegal in some countries, and this mod takes out those swastikas.

I have to agree with SliverGhost about historical accuracy, no real german U-Boat crew went to sea wearing dress uniforms. I've seen an old photo of a U-Boat crew returning to port wearing bowler derby hats, but never dress uniforms. Now if you made a mod that has the right mix of normal uniforms and civy outfits. Now thats a mod that I would download.

Pablo is right Some countries are picky about hitler and Swastikas. Personally its a bummer that they don't want you to remember history. How are we suppose to learn? Its almost like the government wants to forget the past.:hmm: I think that is a great mistake. But I'm one man... what do I know right? Wolf great work. I know there are players who will appreciate it. For me I don't have to worry about those details. Back to sinkin ships!

Wolfehunter:
In Germany that's exactly what the law is NOT about. The law prohibits displaying the swastika, because they want to prevent right-wing organisations to glorify or deny the past. In fact openly glorifying the Nazi regime or denying the holocaust in Germany is an offence punishable by law.
The German government probably is one of the most open aware (and often very self conscious) about it's countries past - even to the outside world. If I'd think mor often or other countries which tend to bury their past and even present crimes I'd be sick to my stomach ...
However, this law is sometimes a bit exaggerated. Computer games are a good example. So with any WW2 simulation where German military is featured, displaying the swastika is not allowed, even if you cannot play on the German side.
However if you got a movie featuring swastikas in historical functions is not forbidden. The only reason for that I can think of is because you can participate in a game, while you cannot in movie.

In next IGM mod version I planed:

1. Try to fix some minor graphical problems in Campaign screen “office” and fix minor graphical problems with "sailors" ranks and my emblems.
2. Fix ships flag bug (my Imperial Germany flags don’t replace Nazi flags in GWX but in original game without GWX works normally)
3. Add add new color scheme for all U-Boats Types in game (Lower Hull in red, black line and upper hull in gray with/without camo - selectable) see pictures/concept art in this links:
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...k-graysub1.jpg
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...k-graysub2.jpg
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...k-graysub3.jpg
http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...k-graysub4.jpg
4. Add anchors in some GUI interfaces under eagles ensigns.
AHOY

my appologies wolf, but i dont realy like it...

i have never actualy seen Keizerliche Marine insignes or even high command insignes on regular U-boat men... also i dont realy like the fact you used the dress over the battledress for patrol... there's no boat where this has been...
and even if some country's dont allow swastica's, you should make a option then so that ppl can choose between swastica's (at own risk) or no swastica's.

Everyone has a right to its think.

Everyone has a right to its think.


MY IGM MOD IS NOT FOR PEAPOLE WHO WENT 100% REALISAM IN ALL SH3 GAME ASPECTS! IF YOU BELONG TO THIS GRUP OF SH3 GAMERS, FORGET IGM MOD!.


IF YOU DON’T APPEAL/DON’T LIKE MY MOD (I don’t know better words for translate this word from my language) you can easy restore your original SH3 files if you make backup of it before install IGM Mod (I warned you in READ ME TO MAKE BACKUP of your original SH3 files!!!)
