Readme:

Greetings,

This mod combines entries from three mods into one so that you can have Flakmonkey's Twisty Periscope, Privateer's Turm emblems Your Way and Anvart's Flag and Pennants and DF Antenna all at the same time as well as Tarjak's Historic Emblem Pack and a big bonus courtsey of Flakmonkey who has very kindly produced new Type 7c1 Exterior Lightmaps.

When enabled the Type 7b1, 7b2, 7c1 and 7c8 Turms (conning towers) will display the above. Please see the enclosed documentation for the Turm Emblems Your Way mod for more details of how to customise your own emblems.

IMPORTANT: The mod should be enabled in JSGME after Anvart's Flag and Pennants and DF Antenna (LSH3-5_DFa-Flag&Penns_2010.7z) which is required for the mod to work correctly.

--------------------------

Version 4 changelog for type 7c1/7 turms:

Added and lightmapped new bridge objects: cigarette packets, binoculars, ammo crates, mg34 and helmets.

Added and lightmapped Testpilot's Lifebelt and coiled ropes on the deck.

Added and lightmapped Tommi's 20cm ammo container and flagpoles.

Added new up/down radio antenna controlled with the SHIFT+A/CTRL+A keys.

All bridge objects and the UZO will dissapear underwater and the radio antenna will automatically retract on diving etc.

Added two otional folders (Aces' Super Turms v4 FM's Turm 7c2 Lightmaps add on) and (Ace's Super Turms v4 FM's Turm 7c4 Lightmaps add on), activate one or the other not both after the Super Turms mod.

Tomi for his permission to include his flagpoles and ammo container models.

The author of the MBFL mod which saved me many hours in testing.

SKWas for his fantastic S3ditor program without which this mod wouldn't have been possible.

Aces, great work!

I use the FM Interior in LSH3 V5. Is it compatible with the mod?

In my installation of SH3 GWX 3.0, I use your compatibility fix for use of the Turms with interior.

Many thanks and regards.

Hello Aces !

First let me say that I can understand you more than you know, that you have not Fun to modding for LSH ! Aces, I wish I can talk to you in my Mother-Language.....I could better express that I'll help you with test, etc.

Okay, I will try to explain slowly:

First I have a question: Have you this MOD from Anvart for LSH on your HD?: http://174.123.69.202/~subsimc/radioroom/showthread.php?t=166331

If not, so can you download you this MOD please ?

If you have this MOD, please open with S3D the File Turm7b_1_hd.dat and navigate to Node 6: Embedded Image and klick on it and then go on the right site to ....extract. Then you will see the name of the .tga File for Typ VIIB with first Turm, it´s called: NSS_Uboat7B_hull.tga ! Please note: 7B in the Name !!!!!!!!!!! That´s one of the change by the LSH Team !! That´s ONE Example for this Turm !!!! All Names for the Type VIIB are NSS_Uboat7b_xx and so on....

This Comparison must you do please with your MOD and see what the Names of the .tga Files are in your MOD and for LSH !

Now in your MOD when I open the same File (Turm7b_1_hd.dat) and when I navigate to Node 6: Embedded Image the Name of the tga File (AND all other Names in this File) called NSS_Uboat7c_hull.tga (PLEASE NOTE: 7C!!!) and see above for LSH: 7B !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And this is one example for the Turm7B_1_hd.dat !!!

With the other Turm Files from your MOD you must do the same, open your File and this from Anvarts MOD at the same time and compare the Names IN THE FILE !!!!!!

And then you can look into the Manual, that I have uploaded for you. Here you find for each Sub Typ the Description for the Names of the Skins !

Okay, do you have understand this and my written words, my Friend ???

Puuuh, is hard for me this explain in english words.....

---------------------------------------------------------------------

But another Thing: Anvart has released this MOD for LSH too: His FuMO30 MOD, see here: http://174.123.69.202/~subsimc/radioroom/showthread.php?t=166392

Can you do a second Version of your Turm MOD, who based on the FuMo30 MOD too ?

I mean, then we have for LSH two Versions of your MOD:

1.) Version is based on Anvarts Flag & Penns MOD and

2.) Version is based in FuMo 30 MOD

And believe me, that´s the last wish from me to you !!!!!!!!

I say thank you for all what you doing for us and for your Reply !

Best regards,
Magic


P.S. Your Inbox is full, please delete any PM´s !!!!!!

My pleasure mate,

The last couple of weeks I've been feeling VERY tired, maybe it's the time of year or maybe I need a break from work, all work that is :)

I think that, all being well, I should have it sorted out this weekend.

I do wish that I could enjoy the many games that I have bought over the years but I just cannot get into gaming, I get very bored very quickly. I have been playing Steel fury a little of late and I expect that I'll buy Red Orchestra Heroes of Stalingrad (if the single player is any good) and Storm of War if and when it finally comes out but I have so many sims/games LIKE t34 VS tiger, battlestations midway, il2-sturmovik, SH4, Wings of Prey etc. . that never ever get played, I've lost interest after a few minutes and I suspect the SH5 will go the same way.

Best Regards
