At the moment Karle and I are working on making her career playable, she has a few problems that need to be addressed. hopefully she will be up for download in just a day or two. Depending on what we find during the initial in game testing, it might be a day longer but hopefully she'll be good to go. The problems we're looking into at the moment are they radar and sonar, she also has problems with surfacing and she's easily found by sub chasers.

I've tried to take some screens of her in game but when I go to find them, their not where their meant to be. So it might take a while.

Alright, people, i started work on your astute this morning and frankly the mod is a mess. this is what i made so far: correcting the UPC`s.
adding torpedo-tubes and-flaps to the model.
corrected the backplane( there are a stabalizer AND a plane!). assigning of the correct id`s.
new conning -tower file.
deleting of nonsense-entries in the dat`s,zon`s and sim`s. reworking the campaing-files and flottilas. renaming of the file-tree.

still to do: proper armament in the US torpedo library
adjusting the conning tower nodes, instruments etc.

assigning sonar and radar and editing the sensor database ( do NEVER add new sensors otherwise, extra files wont work properly!)

new Sail Bridge model( maybe) and cutoffs for the extensibles.

besides, it`s a fine ship,but the model needs some corrections to the smoothing.
ill keep u posted!

I gave the Astute a try this morning. I have to say that I really enjoyed it ! The model is quite detailed and its combat performances are good. Now I can't wait to have the sonar/hydrophone working.

I noted that she makes bubbles while at periscope depth. There is also some kind of a weird line appearing behind the sail and linking it to the main body of the sub.

Yeah, the line or wire as I think of it as, came as part of the model, everytime it tried to remove it, the model wouldn't go into s3d.
