Default U-Boat Emblems

Howdy,

Do any of you know of ways to import your own emblems and insignia for your U-Boat?

If you have some emblems already made, such as CapZap1970's Emblem Pack, just copy them to the subemblems folder, usually located at:

C:\Program Files\Ubisoft\SilentHunterIII\data\Emblems\Subembl ems

The next time you start SH3, the added emblems will be listed under Special in the U-Boat Upgrades screen.

If you want to make your own emblems, they must be saved as 256x256, 24-bit color, uncompressed Targa (.tga) files. Use an alpha-channel mask to make the background of your emblem transparent if you wish for the u-boat's paint to show through.

Hope this helps!

If you want to create your own emblems all you need is a square .TGA format image. Doesn't matter what size it is as the game will size it automatically to the object on the turm file. It's best is the background is transparent so it looks like its painted onto your sub.

I've got several of my emblem packs as well as individual emblems at my filefront page see my sig below for a link.

Honestly don't know mate. I've thought about picking it back up but TBH RL hasn't allowed me the time I'd like to spend on it.

Hello RobGysae,
creating new emblems isn't very hard. Didn't want to open a new thread, but I've made a few last time / took some historic (U94 & U203). If someone is interested, visit the FF-Page.
