I actually stood on top on the original sub when I was a teenager. It used to be on campus at J.F.K. High School in Paterson, NJ. Had my picture taken on it, though I don't know what happened to it over the years. Now, I think it's housed in some old museum in the downtown section. It's a pretty small sub. Smaller than a standard transit bus but, about the same girth, if my memory serves me right.:hmmm:

Did you let it run for like a day ? I looked away from the animation for 15 minutes and am only at 8000 right now :DL

I managed to get neutral boyancy about 5 - 10 feet off the sea floor. Once i saw it was perfect, i left it alone until i got bored and surfaced it. Nevermind I was at work at the time, and let it run in the background while i did my job. lol
The first part of your sentence is what I'm doing right now, but I have to turn off my computer soon. So no sense in trying to catch up with you ;)

lol ducimus on the SH 6 on release day thing.
I was thinking what a PITA yet fun it would be to play the diving officer on a fleetboat, trying to get the trim just right and level off at correct depth, esp during evasion of destroyer and charges.

Can you do an interior mod for the Holland Ducimus?
This is SH6: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=172467 better graphics, less features.
