Wow, it's gorgeous! :up:

These are great news! Your XB looks fantastic!
Another type of U-Boat to fill the raster in SH III!
I am looking forward to the release!
Muito obrigado!

Nice one :cool:

:oops:
Sorry those who have downloaded the file, I discovered that the ship was not working as an AI ship. And the crew on conning towers were not working too. I already fixed it and update the file. I just update the link.
One more time sorry by the inconvenient.
I hope that you enjoy it. Now I am just finishing the work in a playable Type XB, to be released soon.

Fsaconi on your first three posts since joining! a long silent running indeed!:Kaleun_Salute: nice shots of the XB!

Do you mean we choose your XB as a playable U-Boat and we can lay mines?

That would be fantastic!:up:

Looking forward to the release!

[Karl Heinrich]

My word, this is incredible. Absolutely stunning work, cannot wait to use this

[fsaconi]

Unfortunately no, there are two things that I cannot make it work properly, deploy mines and have the correct amount of torpedoes on the rear tubes. I read in some posts that only on the SH4 is possible to deploy mines. Even there I did not found how to do it. In another SUBSIM post, I learned that is possible to do a torpedo works more less like a mine, but to do that I need to rework the model to back the front tubes to launch these kind of torpedoes. About the amount of rear torpedoes, I can add the correct 15 torpedoes but then the game start to be unstable and most of the time it is crash. Works properly only with 8 rear torpedoes.
For now I will release the model like it is, as mine knowledge is not good enough to solve these issues and maybe with luck someone that known how to do it, can modify it to do that or help me to do the necessary changes.

Hello all,

Hello banryu79,

I would like to implement this feature in this mod, but unfortunately I do not find a way to do that, may be because I am not a really expert on mods. I found a Uboat made for Monsum Operation in SH4 (I think) and atthis moment I am working with a similar idea, deploy a mine like a sonar decoy. But I am not sure that will work in SH3.I probably will test it on this week end.

If someone has the knowledge to do that and would like to help, I am open to receive any help or ideas.

Hi Kurfürst,

For the AI mod, I created new conning towers modifing the stock SH3 type IX. I just added the crew and the MG34.
And for the playable version, I used the current stock SH3 conning towers.
For my undertanding any type IX conning tower should work with these mods.

Hello Archer7seven,

I tested on single missions, but I did the model with the ideia to use it in the carrer too, then I hope that works. I did not changed the Uboat name in the game. On the drop down menu you should select the type IXD2.

I use the stock snorkel at the moment, and without the tubes.
I checked pictures of XB and realized they didn´t have snorkel tubes like IX C or IX C/40. I moved the snorkel to the side of the tower and not in front, see picture of U-234:

http://www.coastguardchannel.com/spclFeatures/cghistory/events/argo_u234/4_U234Schnorkel.jpg

https://encrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSnhVv-t8TrEhKTqHIhuDN_qz530rT1sL6qgXalfr_oauCzevVzUw

The stock snorkel is not very nice, combined to Wises and Kovalls snorkel of IX C, but the only one coming close to the one of U-234.

The AI version of this mod functions very well as an occasional replacement for the Type XIV U-tanker in NYGM. (That is, both can serve as milk cows for refuelling, as in real life.) Doubtless it will work equally well with GWX and the other super-mods. It is a beautifully modelled U-boat - congratulations to fsaconi!

During a test patrol in early 1944, just after refuelling, both U-boats (the XB and my U-boat) were attacked suddenly by Avengers. It was quite fascinating to see both U-boats firing their flak guns at the aircraft.

However, this suggests an improvement: could you (fsaconi) provide some crew-members for the bridge of the AI-XB boat?
The talented SquareSteelBar provided such crew-members for the NYGM XIV U-tankers. SSB is still active in this forum, perhaps you could ask him, if you cannot do the job yourself?

Hello Stiebler,

Thanks, is nice to know there are Subsims using the model and like it.

About to use it in super-mods, I quickly tested in the GWX3 and no problems.

Now about the crew-members on the bridge, the latest model released has them. On the first time that I released, the crew were there but was not well done. Now is fixed, the only thing is that they are not the same used on Type XIV.

Hi Stiebler,

You have the correct file. You just need to select the loadout that you want, when you are adding the Uboat using the Sh3MissionEditor.
http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/d823/m375k41k5115vw74g.jpg

When you choose the Basic loadout, you will have a Uboat like this:

http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/f650/pktz66hsmdsakos4g.jpg
To use when the Uboat is docked for example.

Or you can choose the loadout Crew on Deck and then you have this one:
http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/7d72/mbf9io41dwkm51e4g.jpg
To use it in a patrol area for example.

There is another possibility, but the model is not prepared for it, is this one:

http://www.mediafire.com/convkey/f83c/4dq1mtcz63wcmti4g.jpg
But it is simple to do a small change, to have this option.
You just need to use a text editor and modify the file NSS_Uboat10b.eqp, as show below:

[Stiebler]

Hallo fsaconi again,

I tried your suggestion with Mission Editor, but the U-boat failed to appear at all on screen next to my human-controlled IXC U-boat, and it caused CTDs with my NYGM set-up.
I noticed that there was no Loadout option offered at all with the NYGM XIV and a stock IXC U-boat.

Also I added the 'Loadout=Crew On Deck' line to the XB lines in my campaign_scr.mis. After the first rendezvous with the XB boat, the crew was still not visible on the XB boat, and saving and reloading caused the XB boat to disappear from the visual (F4) screen again.

[EDIT: I've checked a second time again, and now everything works properly in Single Missions. My computer system must have become corrupted somehow. I hope I haven't wasted your time. Sorry about that - Stiebler.]


[EDIT: Not applicable: You say you tested with GWX. Could it be that the 'Crew on Deck' line is something specific to GWX? What file does the 'Crew on Deck' command call?]

Also these lines:

Hello all,one question:is it possible to use the snorkel and snorkel pipes from the type IX from Wise and Kovall?
I use the stock snorkel at the moment, and without the tubes.
SSS
I established GWX on the desktop computer and on the laptop. I hope the identical. But in one case there are tubes,

Hallo fsaconi again,

I tried your suggestion with Mission Editor, but the U-boat failed to appear at all on screen next to my human-controlled IXC U-boat, and it caused CTDs with my NYGM set-up.
I noticed that there was no Loadout option offered at all with the NYGM XIV and a stock IXC U-boat.

Also I added the 'Loadout=Crew On Deck' line to the XB lines in my campaign_scr.mis. After the first rendezvous with the XB boat, the crew was still not visible on the XB boat, and saving and reloading caused the XB boat to disappear from the visual (F4) screen again.

[EDIT: I've checked a second time again, and now everything works properly in Single Missions. My computer system must have become corrupted somehow. I hope I haven't wasted your time. Sorry about that - Stiebler.]


[EDIT: Not applicable: You say you tested with GWX. Could it be that the 'Crew on Deck' line is something specific to GWX? What file does the 'Crew on Deck' command call?]

Hi Stiebler,

At this moment I do not have a NYGM mod installed on my computer to test. But the Uboat Type XIV exist on GWX3 too and it has the loadout option.
My tests are made on the stock SH3 and I just did a quickly test on a single mission in GWX3.
I believe that this feature loadout should exist in all mods as it exist on Stock SH3.
Don' t worry about " I'm wasting my time", it is not true, you are help me to test the model on NYGM. And at the end we are learning together how to fix a possible issue.

About to change the line:

The change is really minimum, you just need to change the Turm for one that has the crew on bridge. The only difference between them is a letter c after the last number in the name of it.

The original line:
LinkName=data/objects/Turm9c_1_hd

The proposal new line:
LinkName=data/objects/Turm9c_1c_hd

Greeting,
fsaconi

@fsaconi,

Many thanks for the clarification.

It's a great new U-boat!

[Edit:
Everything works properly now, in Career patrols and single missions.
Interesting use of 'Loadout=Crew on Deck'; I had not seen that before. Not one of NYGM's other U-boats made use of this function, hence option 'Loadout' greyed out for all NYGM U-boats in Mission Editor. 'Crew on Deck' is defined in menu_1024_768.ini and en_menu.txt.]

Stiebler.
