[REL] Playable S-Boot ( Final )

[Boris]

Here's a couple more shots of the new "Tiger stripe" scheme. It's a semi-historical scheme, in that it's from a photo of an S-38 type boat.



Detail shot, I've updated the bridge rivets on each of the older skins too.

Great cammo job Boris! .


S!

I wonder what the S-Boat operations in 1939 actually were...there's no way in heck you're getting from Kiel to the N. Sea and back with the fuel tank you've got in the S-Boat.

Nope, that's why we need new ports in the English Channel.

Some of the new menu screens :





Plus many more, and even some new sounds (you're gonna love the flak gun !)

@Dutchie : I tryed various ways to have the 37 act like a deck gun but so far none worked, I'm thinking it may be because I used the typeII as a base, maybe there's some limitation out there regarding the use of deck gun for this boat. I'm sure that if it was based on a type VII it would already be working
As a cheap consolation, the new GUI will have 3 buttons for direct access to each flak gun.

Please give us quick a new version with all of your new great stuff, especialy the new flag position behind the bridge and please use the new gui from latemail. In my mind it is very S-Boat like and very playable.
Kind regards.

Two years ago I did some preliminary work for an idea I had for the game. GWX has gone beyond that with the Dunkirk scenarios, but what I have in information on Seebruge changing hands and the German coastal convoys from Seebruge to Wilhelmshaven. These were escorted by Flakleiters, with S-boats along for the ride, and were regularly attacked by British Vospers. I will gladly share what little work I've done, and any advice you think might come in handy.

Hello Mate, in 1939 till june 1940 S-boote operated in the Ostzee along the coast
of Germany and Danmark till the occupation of The Netherlands, Begie and France it was possible to operated in the Nordsee becaus they can use ports in those country`s

Hopes it help, Dutchie-one

Very nice paint job.

I understand you did this over the high res to keep the rivet details.

Might I ask how you did this??

I am using paint shop pro 7.

[Antenor]

@Mikhayl

I need guns big guns real big guns.

The English Channel is a beast, swarming with the RAF, fat man Goring's fly boys are so wet. I saw four of them heading to-wards a Destroyer which fired back at them and then they naffed off back to France.

And that's why I need bigger guns.

PS: This is one hell of a slam bang cool mod.
