[WIP] More Turms Your Way! [Archive] - SUBSIM Radio Room Forums

I never did finish the rest of the Turms for a very dumb reason.
I tried to rush something and for whatever reason?
:hmmm:
I brain locked and could not figure out why nothing was working right!
:damn:

I was asked by PM to add the Turms Your Way to a private setup for a member here.

So I did.
That's when the problem hit me again!
The background for the Emblems would not be rendered clear!
:nope:

After WAY to many hours trying everything I could think of it still did not work!
Then the "DUHH!!" hit me!
I had started adding reflections of the emblems to the Dats!
Once I removed those?
The basic Mod worked as before.
:doh:

A perfect example of "Modder Screw Up" by rushing things!
Do one step at a time.
ALWAYS!
Even if you THINK you know what your doing!
:haha:

So stand by for some more Turms Your Way!!
Starting with the Type IIA.

Hi privateer !

That sounds very good :up:, BUT: I think this is not compatible with LSH / WAC, right ? :wah:

Best regards,

i'm not 100% familiar with terms in modding such as turms (i just loled), what does this mod do exactly?

Great job Jeff! I've never used it, mainly because I'm a luddite and afraid to try anything that involves more than just pasting it in. But with a Type II? Looks like this old dog is going to have to learn a new trick.

Turm is the German term for Turret, which is their word for the Conning Tower. This mod lets you add new and better emblems to the Tower, including those that go on the front rather than the sides, and it lets you make your own emblems, so you can have anything on your boat that you like!

This is the area you can use for your Custom Emblems.

As for LSH and WAC or other Mods?
I can make the base 3D parts needed,
and instructions on how to do it, available if someone wants them.

Frequently when a kaleun was awarded a RK the crew would paint a maltese cross on the front of the tower. When he got the leaves they would add several large leaves on both sides. Some ships would also put their tonnage on the tower too if it was over 100,000. I've got a photo of a type I that on its tower its got the open sharks mouth with all the teeth. Some crews got very creative in decorating the tower.

Really dig the Order of the Black Eagle on the side. Very WWI'sh but still appropriate. If I wanted to put an image on the front of tower that rapped around to the sides, can I use a 2d image and will the editor place it on there following its natural progression, or would I need to render it in 3d?

Jim, how did you get the mod to work with a type VII, or are the VIIb's compatible with existing mod?

How very observant of you :DL

There are two separate Turm Mods, one for the VIIB and the other for VIIC.

Here is a link to them both combined and JSGME enabable:

Your welcome....I forgot to mention there are a few of TarJaks emblems included also.

01-13-11, 08:09 PM

*raises hand*

I haz a question.

I want to make sure I have the right files enabled so I can use my custom emblems no matter what type boat I'm in at any given moment (just in case I get a wild hair and decide not to play a VIIB :haha:).

I know I need to make different emblems for each type using the different templates, but am I safe to enable all the different .dat files at the same time, and then just add new ones as they become available for the different turms? It doesn't look like they overwrite each other, just the files that are already in the game, so one wouldn't have to be taken out just to enable custom turms for a different type turm. So right now I could have one combined version of the mod that has all the available .dat files in it, and just enable that?

Madox58

01-13-11, 08:18 PM

Each Turm dat is a different file.
So yes you could enable them all 'Just incase'.
OR they could be placed in SH3 Commander folders which would allow it to handle the swap.
(If you always launch from Commander that is)

Have a Cookie and sit down.
:haha:

While on the subject of Turms,
What all Turms have I released?
I have a Type 9 sitting here that I'm not sure was ever released.
:hmmm:

frau kaleun

01-13-11, 08:57 PM

I think I have everything ever released, which AFAIK is the 7b_1, 7b_2, 7c_1, 7c_8, and whatever is in the IIA version I just downloaded from upthread.

I don't remember anything for the IXs but then I've never gotten close to playing a IX, so I might have let it slip by and not paid much attention at the time.

But I bet Jimbuna knows if there's a Type IX version out there. I bet you double he knows if there isn't. ;) :O:

Edit: for use in Commander, I'd just put all the 7c .dats in the VIIC folder, and the 7b .dats in the VIIB folder, and so on? I mean, each version of the turms for each type can go with that type u-boat? I guess I was confused about there being different turms for the same u-boat, I've never upgraded a turm either. :haha:

Jimbuna

01-14-11, 03:12 PM

But I bet Jimbuna knows if there's a Type IX version out there. I bet you double he knows if there isn't. ;) :O:

...and you'd win that bet because it was archived on one of my externals almost a year ago and never released publicly (Privateers work) :03:

Where is this mod for the type IXC u-boat for example.

Can someone do a 'Turm IX Your Way' mod please?

Jimbuna,

Getting the 404 file not found when I click on the download button. It goes to the your download should start in a few moments screen then goes to the 404 page. I think that is what the other guys are getting too.

Yeah I see that now....hopefully the FF server will sort itself out shortly but tbh I'm sick of that site....not only did they lose everything last year but a few weeks ago wiped out the stats of thousands of downloads without any prior notice or warning :nope:

They have support and it's pretty good tbh but I'm simply no longer enthused by the hassle.
