The Flower class corvette was the most famous and common escort unit in convoys, so a good model is just a "must-have" ! But this 3D model seems to be extremly detailed, far too many polygons for SH3 in my opinion. Where does this model come from ?

Awesome model :rock: ! It seems a little bit different from the model of War Thunder (https://gamemodels3d.com/games/warthunder/vehicles/uk-flower-class).

Note : The armament (on your picture) is not correct for a standard convoy escort :

guns can be easily changed

Your answer is unclear. So, this is the model from War Thunder ? So why did you change the armament ? :06:

Basically, because it is his mod. As he says, the guns are easy enough to change with just a little tweak to an eqp file... The modder gets to make the choice. Whether he wants to do a mod to begin with, and then what he wants in the mod. He is using the WoW ship as the basis, the starting point.

The model is looking very good ! :yep:

Now, about the texture :

1. The texture is very dark (the whole model seems to be obscured compared to your picture taken from S3D, it's probably due to the ambient occlusion map which doesn't work the same way in SH3 than in more recent games like War Thunder or World Of Warships) and is very "flat" (lack of contrast).

2. Do you intend to create different camo skins for this ship (like the ones coming with the GWX supermod) ?

So, this is an "early-war" hull. Note that it was rebuilt during the war :

Top quality work ! :yeah: :rock:

I will re-install SH3 and try it as soon as possible ! :yep:

Well done and thank you for this beautiful add-on ! A detailed model was very missing for this emblematic ship of WWII british convoys. Too bad that there is only one skin.

Excellent job; one of the best initial ship releases for SH3! And i like that an older variant with the enclosed chart house is included - many of the Canadian Flower Corvettes had that configuration for a long time.

I have never converted ships for SH4. But I don't think there will be much difficulty.

I just putted the files in the SH4. And it seems to work. Although the crew doesin't appear and also there is no bow spray or ship wake any ideas why is that?

Which crew do you want to see? What have you done for this? Modified the .eqp file or are you using weapons without gunners?

i didn't modified anything I just downloaded the file and putted into JGSME SH4 and installed it. I am testing a possibility of adding new ships for my KSD II modpack. Crew on depth charge racks would be nice.

This will not work properly. You need to change the files manually in the same way as KSD-II.

I'm pretty sure I released the GWX tool to convert SH3 Units to SH4 Units program.
:hmmm:

Try to keep up!
Here's a link to the program.
https://www.mediafire.com/file/py9zqj9ychc9a2b/Sh3ToSh4.7z/file

It is not perfect but will save you hours of work!
This program was created by ref of the Grey Wolves when we were working on the SH4 version of GWX.

If you use it? Credit ref and the Grey Wolves!
It does leave a tracker only I can spot. so don't try to by pass credits!

User Guide.

Run the program on a unit and then use the files in the Converted folder.
Place those in SH4.
:har:

Now Units with more then 1 texture can show up Black. That is what I ment by not perfect!
There is a fix for that in the SH4 Mods work shop.
https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=239270&highlight=sh3tosh4

Also. SH3 Units do NOT have AO mappings unless the modder of a Unit did them.
Those would need hand adjusted if they exist.

Hi Alex,

first of all many thanks for the beautifull ships you´ve converted for SHIII!
What a great addition to the game , excellent work you have done!

Just a courius question; is there a chance to have the U-Boats of WoW converted into SHIII, too?

I have no idea how much work it takes to get them into the game; I guess it´s not an easy task!

Best regards and carry on your with your great work! :Kaleun_Cheers::Kaleun_Cheers:

That Western Approaches skin in post #19 looked really nice. A pity that it didn't make it into the final version.

An excellent job anyway :up:. Just added it to my SH4 Dark Waters install, with some bridge and quarterdeck crew and some changes in the armament (UK guns and lookouts by The_Frog and stock SH4 Oerlikons) to make it look more "alive".
