(REL) Gato Class Camouflage

[rebel5555]

I now present to one and all "Gato Camo v1.0". I've spent about 12 hours working on this and I hope you all will enjoy it.

There are two versions of the skin, there's a Generic Version and there's a SS228 USS Drum Version.
The links for download are at the bottom of the post.

UPDATE: M. Sarsfield requested the skin with a Grey Conning Tower. So, I've added two Modules that will add a Grey Skinned Conning Tower.
Make sure you download the appropriate modules for what skin you are going to be using. Again, the links are at the bottom of the post. WIP Threadhttp://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=133021

I do like that camo pattern. Is it all hand done? If it was, then I hope you have a graphics tablet, as that would have driven me nuts doing all that with a mouse.

Very nice!

[DrBeast]

Nice work there, rebel. Extra kudos for managing to make the hull number show correctly on both sides! :up: Might give this a go, since I too am the skipper of a USS Drum ;)

[Digital_Trucker]

Nice work, Rebel:up:

I used the Sponge filter in PhotoShop to do the Camo. The biggest problem was taking the original skin and putting it back into layers.

Digital_Trucker and DrBeast thanks, I'm glad you like it.

[M. Sarsfield]

Should the bridge structure be a lighter gray? Right now it make s a pretty nice silhouette.

[Nisgeis]

For late war period, yes, hull light grey with dark grey stern with optional mid grey divider, sail light grey.

I just noticed Rebel, you need to get Anti Aliasing turned on!

I see what you mean. I like the black tower, but I can create an optional module with grey conning towers for the people who want to use them.

What do you mean turn Anti-Aliasing on? I don't see the option for it in the options menu in SH4.

It's in your video card settings.

[rebel5555]

It's in your video card settings.
Thanks LukeFF! Good news everyone, M. Sarsfield requested a grey Conning Tower for my skin. So, I've uploaded two seperate modules one for the Generic Version and one for the USS Drum version. Please enjoy!

[sqk7744]

Nicely done Rebel! :up::up::up:

[rebel5555]

UPDATE: I've added additional download links because some users have been having problems using MegaFileUpload. Alternate download links are at the bottom of the first post.

On another note does anyone want me to do Camo for any other boats?

Hi Rebel,

Nice work! I wanted to download your GATO Camo but all the download sites for filefront.com are no longer posted. I also tried to use megafileupload.com but to no avail. I registered (for free) two days ago and still have not had my account validated. Obviously, they want me to use the 'fee service'. I will not if your downloads are no longer posted on this site either. Please help.

Thanks.

Navelintel :hmmm:

Very well done:salute:. Must have been alot of work. Thank you for the skins:up::up::up:

Hi Captgeo,

Have you been able to download these skins recently? If so, from where? Or maybe you could send me the downloaded files that you have. Please let me know so I can enjoy them as well.

Thanks.

Navelintel :)

[Webster]

bump

[Lt commander lare]

hi the links are not working for me either i have tried all of them maybe rebel can upload his mod to the subsim downloads and we can download the files there on filefront it just goes to game downloads with ads


lt commander lare

[Highbury]

This thread was was over a year dead before Navelintel bumped it Lt cmdr dare. Rebel5555 has not posted at Subsim for over a year. Unless someone else still has this skin it is lost to the community (or unless Rebel comes back).

[Lt commander lare]

ok thanks highbury well it did look cool anyway

lt commander lare

[captgeo]

I still have a copy of this file (skin) if players really want it. Send me a PM with youre email and I will send it when I can.

[TG626]

Now some years on, anyone got this? I happen to be assigned the Drum and I'd like to use something better then the all black rust bucket skin :D

OTOH, I don't really want the cartoonish type which I already found either... There should be *some* weathering...

[captgeo]

did you just want the weathered version of the Gato class?, not the one with the spotted blue ?

Am I the only one who gets a strange pop-up window asking for a password and authentication when I come into this thread?

I don't

yes you are, because I did not :hmmm:

[TG626]

On my PC using Firefox, yes I get it. On my tablet with chrome, no I don't.:hmmm:

[aanker]

I'm using Firefox on a PC and there is no pop up.

No, you're not. The cause is a link to an image in sqk7744's signature, which is missing an image called "http://www.compuglobalhypermeganet.tv/images/sh4/pride%20runs%20deeeep.jpg (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/view-source:http://www.compuglobalhypermeganet.tv/images/sh4/pride%20runs%20deeeep.jpg)", which is prompting for a username and password.

[Bonden]

I'm getting the pop-up with firefox..

[aanker]

My Firefox is configured to not permit pop-ups, or targeted advertising, or tracking. My cache is set to 0.

I have an extension named, "DoNotTrackMe Online Privacy Protection 3.1.1038" made by Abine Inc.

I wasn't getting any pop up........... until, after refreshing this a few times in another tab the pop up appeared!!!! ....... I X'd it to close.

Weird.

I remember a few years ago that same pop-up appeared - but I haven't seen it until just now while writing this post.

[TorpX]

No, you're not. The cause is a link to an image in sqk7744's signature, which is missing an image called "http://www.compuglobalhypermeganet.tv/images/sh4/pride%20runs%20deeeep.jpg (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/view-source:http://www.compuglobalhypermeganet.tv/images/sh4/pride%20runs%20deeeep.jpg)", which is prompting for a username and password.

Good, I was worried it was something for me to be concerned about.

I'm not getting it now.
