(REL) Warships retextured v 1.3 (for sh4 1.4)

[kriller2]

Please disable all other version of this mod before installing this mod.

Now includes new textures for 21 japanese warships and carriers!

This mod aims to visually improve the warships with new reworked textures, I made some new textures for all the guns in SH4 to match the new Yamato and all the other improved ships.

New textures: New bumpmaps, new wood textures, steel textures.
This mod can be added to your game anytime as it only modifies the textures and works with ROW,RFB,TM, RSRD.

Great timing, right for my new SHIV career :D
They look beautiful! Looking forward to seeing them in-game shortly...

Looks great, Kriller, but your file structure in the download is a little bit messed up for use with JSGME. ;)

I am uploading the mod again now with a better file-structure.
thanks for noticing, it gets a little late sometimes when you are modding ;)

Sweet! Don't forget about the carriers! ;)

One other thing: the doors on the Subtender still look look pitted and worn out and don't have much definition around their edges. Could you clean those up a bit?

Thanks!

[getmessedup]

Kriller, I can't see any of your work on the new ships in game, I am using the mod enabler....

He has an extra folder in the zip file. Cut and paste the Data folder for the mod and move it up one level.

Thanks Luke for the response, and Kriller for the retexture! Looks great!

Thanks Luke, I wont forget the carriers ;) , but as this mod is progressing I will try to update this mod regularly instead of releasing it all in one big pack. Will look at the sub-tender upto the next release.

[DrBeast]

Neat! The ships from RSRDC DESPERATELY need an overhaul too! Please include more of them if you can :up:

[ustahl]

I think this deserves to be made sticky, in view of all the visual improvments on ships and further yet to expect.:rock:
Unless there is a quota for stickies, and it's exhausted...:hmm:

[skwasjer]

We already have way to many stickies :nope:

[ustahl]

We already have way to many stickies :nope:
Actually, you're probably right - we might end up with a sticky inflation.:shifty:

But this could nevertheless be kept up high by other means.:smug:

[AVGWarhawk]

We already have way to many stickies :nope:

I'll be the judge of that. What is stickied are MAJOR modifications of the game. As you can see ROW swallowed up LBO that was subsequently removed from the sticky list. Eventually, RFB will be swallowed up by RFB for ROW/RSRD. TM will continue on course for Ducimus. This texture mod will end up on the sticky of the listed modifications of the game. Eventually I'm sure this new texture pack will become part of yet another larger mod package as Kriller2 allows others to use his work for the greater good of large mod packages. (God bless him!) IMO, the sticked threads are all major modifications of the game and need to remain at the top so the creaters/users can locate them easily to post praise or problems.

[kriller2]

See first page of this thread, I will add a rapidshare mirror, just a sec.

[Doolittle81]

For what it is worth, generally, it seems that Filefront is easier to use for downloads than rapidshare...

[black1]

I downloaded and ran this with the mod enabler jg??? but not sure if im seeing a difference, the post above me a few says there is an additional folder that needs to be moved? can someone explain this a little better so i can get this to work properly, thanks.

[ReallyDedPoet]

Just getting the new one, thanks kriller :up:


RDP

[getmessedup]

A sub retexture, maybe? More believeable skins? Foo did a great job with high res, but still a little to "clean" for me... When the sun hits it, you can barely see any difference from the weathered and clean...

[Vorkapitan]

Kriller...these are fantastic ..... must have taken quite awhile....can you tell us how lon it took... elapsed time?

Hi Black1
Inside the directory "Warships retextured 1.2" there is another directory called "Warships_install", you need to move the folder ""Warships_install" into your MODS directory and enable it in JSGME.

[black1]

Ok great thanks Kriller I appreciate it alot.

[STEED]

Very nice indeed :yep: DL as I type this post. :up:

Incredible work! :up: The re-texturing is absolutely first rate! :cool:

Will you eventually improve merchant textures, too? I hope you find time.:know:

[miner1436]

Just a suggestion, portholes look terrible in this game, how about correcting the size and postitons of them if yer up for the challenge.:up:

[kriller2]

Hi Miner,I have plenty of work to do on improving the textures for wood and steel and bumpmaps, liferafts and so on, so I will leave that issue for someone else to work on.

[rascal101]

Hi Kriller,
Just wanted to ask. If you look at the conning tower of a sugar boat there is a hatch on the side, if you line up the camera you can see through the hatch to the other side.

My question concerns the limber holes in most of the subs particularly those at the very front and around the dive planes. The limber holes were designed to let water in to aid in diving, at the front of the boat where it is at its narrowest I wonder if it is possible to mod the limber holes at the very front and around the dive planes so that these like the hatches on the side of the conning tower can be seen through

Its not a big deal but possibly might look a bit more real than just a black circle trying to look like a hole.

Do you think this could be possible. I would try it my self except I dont know what program to use to view the textures in the game files

Regards
R

Hi Rascal
I think it's possible but I wont work with new skins for subs, because foofighter has allready done a great job on that. The reason i am working with the ships textures is because nobody else have done such a mod and the stock ships textures and bumpmaps could use a little more detail, sorry it took so long to answer this, but Crysis is taking my time at the moment :cool: that's allso the reason why the new carriers are not released yet! Will look into it SOON (tm) ;)

[LukeFF]

kriller, have you given any thought to re-doing some of the camo schemes for the ships? Here's a great reference for American ships, if you're interested:

Got to ask, what's the difference between the older 1.3 version and new 1.4? I haven't patched yet, but general concensus is that texture files aren't affected by the new patch. Can I use any of your forthcoming work with 1.3?

I have removed the dat-files which modified how high the caustics are reflected on a ship,so now it's only textures so it should work with both patches.

Kriller, your work never ceases to amaze me. :yep:

Can I ask you a favor for the Yamato model? Could you please add the chrysanthemum to the bow?

[miner1436]

You can get an idea of the chrysanthemum from the Kuma.

[kriller2]

You can get an idea of the chrysanthemum from the Kuma.

Thanks Miner, I now which part you want me to add, but I can't find the frontplate of the Yamato in the textures :damn: maybe thats the reason the devs didn't add the chrysanthemum.

EDIT:
I think i found the place to look :), will try something now and test if it works.

[Hawk_345]

amazing work Kriller, keep it up.

[kriller2]

This new version is up! :cool:

[miner1436]

The yamato is all messed up.

[kriller2]

Sorry. New download coming up the texture with the chrysanthemum repeated itself onto the ship (how could I miss that!! :p ) BTW Miner please be more specific when you report a bug!

EDIT: new download is up with the fix for the Yamato.

ps, you may want to change the header in the thread to show 1.3 is up!

[LukeFF]

Excellent!

Just an FYI, you ommitted the Akitsu Maru. I know, it's technically an aircraft ferry, but the game lists it as an escort carrier.

(I know...I always have to nag about something... ;)).

I just downloaded and installed vs 1.3 after first unloading vs. 1.2 with JSGME, then loaded for testing th single Battle off Samar. Unfortunately Yamato did not show the new reduced & replaced portholes (nor Chrysanthemum).:cry:

I'm a bit confused. Were the porthole changes withdrawn, awaiting some further fix, or could there be a conflict with the Trigger_Maru_GFX_PAK_2_2? :roll:

Did you just install the file as you DL it or did you extract the individual folders for each ship. In the earlier releases you had to do this for the files to work in JSGME. I've not unpacked the latest release yet, so I don't know if its any different.

Did you move the "warships_retextured_v1_3" to the MOD folder and enable it? - try look inside the folders there should be a readme beside the correct directory.

I will uploade a new version without doubledirectories, don't know why this happens in WinRAR...

Sometimes it's not how it's compressed, but how it's decompressed. If you select "extract here" you get the correct folder layout, but if you just choose "extract" and let it name the location, you end up with an additional folder layer.

Thanks Ustahl.
Im glad you sorted out, just remember that allthough the targets are better looking they are still very lethal! ;) ( why does that reminds me of my wife? :hmm: )

[LukeFF]

Thanks Luke :up: The Akitsu is in the pack, but I forgot to put it on the list.

Thanks! Dunno how I missed that. :roll:

A couple of observations:
The Taiho should not have that much rust, as it was in service for only three months. It should also have more of an overall gray scheme (see below)
The gun tub (for the AA guns) on the sub tender still looks icky (I think it's the default texture). Would be nice to get that looking better.
The Japanese destroyers (other than the Akizukis) still have too much rust, IMO.
The Kongo is still showing too much rust around its superstructure, IMO.Color artwork of Taiho:

Yes I know thats why I have tried to add a rapidshare mirror, but I have been having some serious problems getting into this forum the last 2 days, maybe it has something to do with the release of GWX2?

Now there is a new download mirror for rapidshare try that if you are still having problems downloading.

Hi Luke, I can't see the picture? - but if you are right about your observations I will see what I can do to make it more realistic. It's not an dificult task to remove some rust, because i have it on a seperate layer in photoshop, just need to be 100% positive before doing it ;)

Warships_retextured_v1_3 is installed last, and JSGME did not report any file replacement related to any other mod during installation.:hmm:

I have the "Warships_retextured_v1_3" folder in my SH4\MODS folder. It contains a "Data" Folder which contains a "sea" folder and a "textures" folder. The "sea" Folder cotnains sub-Folders for each ship.

When I enable the "Warships_retextured_v1_3" Mod in JSGME, I also do not get any report about replacing previous ship files (*.dds). Am I doing something wrong? Are all the new textures being implemented in spite of JSGME not reporting any overwrites of *.dds files during the enabling process?

Hi Doolittle,

See post #71 about this issue.

[Doolittle81]

Hi Doolittle,

See post #71 about this issue.

Yes, I checked that out... I still remain curious as to why there are no *.dds re-writes/over-writes announced when one enables your Warship..etc..Mod.

I guess I can stop worrying about it, as long as I definitely see the new skins... Could I possibly see a screencap of your current/latest Yamato skin compared to the stock/default Yamato? ...I'd like to confirm that I have the new texture/skin working. Thanks.

@Doolittle: The retextured Yamato looks like the picture in posting No. 57, smaller portholes higher up in the hull front section. The originals were lower down, huge & ugly.

You had obviously made the same mistake as I had done:
[quote]Yes, I moved the "warships_retextured_v1_3" to the MODS folder and enabled it - to no effect, really.:nope:
Being in a hurry to see the new beauties in action, I did not look inside and pick the "Warships retextured_install1_3" instead.:oops:[unquote]

Question about two ship files in this mod...
nd_kuma
&
nd_naka

those ships do not correspond to anything in the stock files....
but they come close to the stock files of:
NCL_Kuma and NCL_Naka


does it matter?

[u.Prestige]

Excellent!
Any new textures for merchants?:up:

Have you downloaded ver. 1.3 of this mod? there is no ships with those names in the mod :hmm: maybe a left over from another mod?
Cheers!

I have to admit that I do change the Labeling of the files in your mod to an exact match of the game files to advoid possable problem as somtimes there can be a letter case sensitive issue.

nbb_fuso in your mod vs NBB_Fuso in the game file.

Other wise I like the new texture work so far Kriller thanks for it!

Hi Doolittle,

See post #71 about this issue.

Yes, I checked that out... I still remain curious as to why there are no *.dds re-writes/over-writes announced when one enables your Warship..etc..Mod.

I guess I can stop worrying about it, as long as I definitely see the new skins... Could I possibly see a screencap of your current/latest Yamato skin compared to the stock/default Yamato? ...I'd like to confirm that I have the new texture/skin working. Thanks.

HI Doolittle,
Yes if you look at page #1 of this thread there are two pictures of the Yamato, stock and modded, but I had to remove the chrysanthemum due to some texture-problems.

Yes, most recent version. The two ships you show as nd_kuma & nd_naka do not exist in the stock SH4 directory. Their closest relatives could be... NCL_Kuma and NCL_Naka

Show here...

Hi ATR-42.

I have downloaded my mod to see if how it looks from the first page of this thread and here is a screenshot of the directory in the "Warships retextured_install1_3\data\sea" folder after I unpacked it:
http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/7100/warshipsretextured13cp5.jpg

I don't know why you are getting those directories? But the important thing is that you have the "ncl_naka" and the "ncl_kuma" in the "sea/" directory.

[ATR-42]

you know what.... 10 bucks says im just retarded...
i bet because its lower case, and i was doing the work on my laptop which has a small screen and fine resolution, that NCL looked like nd becuase it was lower case. i feel like such a jackass.... :doh:

[kriller2]

that is so weird!!
Yes I know :hmm: so I will try to download from the rapidshare link allso to see if I made a mistake if thats the case I will buy you a christmas beer!:up:

EDIT: I eaxamined the rapidshare DL and there is no such directory.

[ATR-42]

beat me to the punch, see above post...

[miner1436]

This should be a stickie.

[M. Sarsfield]

Is anyone using this with the new TM?

It's just a graphics mod...

First I'd like to say that you really doing some amazing work, kriller. :up:

I have a request to make of you. I can think of a ship that needs a face lift real bad and that is the Hiyo. Below is a picture of the Hiyo from TM 1.7.5.

The Hiyo is from RSRDC and it was "green"

Retextured without the camo?

[cdrsubron7]

Boy, so what you guys are telling me, is that that is the way she is asupposed to look. Do I feel left out in left field. Sorry for making a stupid comment.

[miner1436]

Does anyone want me to do the Taiho? Kriller is busy updating ROW and has allowed me to continue this.

Sounds like a plan top me, miner. :up:

[Extra Ketchup]

I just installed these - they look really good. I like what you did with the American planes!

When you do these - do you test with post-processing on or off?

Anyway, thanks for the hard work!

[Capt Jack Harkness]

Hey Kriller, excellent work. :up: If you're not too busy, do you think you might be able to lend a hand to my fledgeling Cold War team???
