looks very good, tankeriv!

does it have any side effect on the landscape textures as well?
I`ve read some of the ocean floor textures are shared with the landscape ones...

maybe you´d like to upload it on Rapidshare:
http://rapidshare.de/

and of course at the sh3 all-in-one store ;)
http://u-boot.realsimulation.com/

[CWorth]

:o :o :o

Those are awsome looking screenshots..I want this mod.

And as for hosting the mod..upload it here to the Wal Mart of Silent Hunter III mods.

It is shared with some land scapes as well yes.
But it rather looks like rocks with foliage.

So no big deal. :)

[tankeriv]

Whom should I contact for http://u-boot.realsimulation.com/?

Thanks in advance. :)

[Gammel]

Just click on mod uploads on the side and upload it.
The side is owned by Terrapin, he has hosted all known mods
for SH3 so far. :up:

[tankeriv]

starting upload now.

I hope you like the mod. :)

[rulle34]

Very great mod :up: This adds more reality and immersion to the game!
Good work!

[vils]

thumbs up! :up:

[Syxx_Killer]

I look forward to this one! I've been waiting for a believable sea floor for a while. :cool:

[oRGy]

Looks great! :up:

Mind if I include it in the improved u-boat mod?

[Rubini]

Looks great! :up:

Has someone here already really saw the effects on landscape?

Rubini.

[CousinHubert]

Tank,

You should realy be workin on TLD final patch uuuh ??? :rotfl: :rotfl:

[tankeriv]

Tank,

That one's done already. :D:D

Waiting at X1 to be translated :)
Dunno when actually. :huh:

[tankeriv]

Looks great! :up:

Mind if I include it in the improved u-boat mod?

No not at all.

Would be really cool even :D

Send me a PM. :)

I got much more mods to include if you wish.

At the moment I created :

* weapon mod
* seafloor mod
* torpedo mod
* high quality near photo lighthouse mod

Let me know if you want to include it. :)

As long as it doesn't go to a "Seawolf" mod ;) :-j :-j

[terrapin]

The file is up now, I've repackaged it for use with JSGME and compressed it with 7z (~8 MB smaller than the original)

[Col7777]

That looks very good, so if anyone has installed the murky water mod they won't see your fine work Tankeriv. :)

I'm sure I'm going to see fish darting in and out of those rocks. :-j

Ghehe, well I even included a Stingray on the sand terrain :lol:

BTW tried it?

[Pharaoh49]

Say oRGy, where can I find your improved u-boat mod?

Filename?


And Tankeriv, have you uploaded that torpedo mod anywhere. Would love to have it?

It's possible to have a normal .RAR version of this mod?
Thanks :D

[terrapin]

Thanks :D

7z just uncompresses fine with rar.

[Axlwolf]

:huh:
Ops,sorry,my bad.
Maybe y should explain...
I have 2 computer
On this(the oldest) i have only Winzip(an old version)
On the other(New) i have Winrar
It's seems that winzip dont support 7z
I will try on the other
Thanks :D

Thanks :D

rgr...I and others prefer 7z, because it compresses most filetypes much better than other compressors - and that's important if you host hundreds of files consuming monthly bandwidth in the terabyte range. In fact, I'd appreciate all files uploaded to my server to be in 7z format...I don't have the time to convert them all.

[Sturm]

Axlwolf: Try this one http://www.7-zip.org/.

[Axlwolf]

It doesn't work with winrar :shifty:
@Sturm:I'll try your link,thanks

[The Avon Lady]

It doesn't work with winrar
Yes it does. Download and install the most recent WinRAR version (http://www.rarlabs.com/). It automatically handles 7Z type files.

I use WinRAR to handle everything - ZIP's, 7Zs and RARs, of course!

[Axlwolf]

It work now,thanks
Very good mod :rock:

[Type941]

wohoo! One less mod for me to think about! Looks superb! Now I can bottom the boat and take some cool screenshots. The previous sea floor was horrendous. :up:

[Marhkimov]

I second that... awesome! :up:

[raumden]

stunning!
great work! thx!

[ming]

Sweet mod...only issue is that while I was trying to un-do the crude oil type water in another mod, I tinkered with the cfg file in the env folder. Could someone simply post the two numbers in the file behind "seatypeimagedimX" and "seatypeimagedimY". I hate to ask, but I really want to see this mod from ALL sides! I have learned my lesson on backing up files! :stare:

[FLB sale U-999]

Hi!


Great Mod!


Please upload it once in a ZIP or RAR on Rapidshare.de!


A lot of people are nerved of the clicking-through on u-boot.realsimulation.com..... (sry for that small critic, it is still a great Site, your u-boot.realsimulation.com...) ;)


Just one Version for hectic people on rapidshare, please :D


Thank`s a lot Sale :)

[kriller2]

excelent mod! that was the last detail in the game that needed to be moded :up:, I have changed the water to default SH3-water just to see the effect! and it works good with my terrain-mod.

[Rubini]

Yes, I also don't notice nothing important with the landscape texture! :up:

But I notice a drop in my FPS in some harbours (with HT mod). Someone have notice this too?

Rubini.

[kriller2]

yes I allso noticed that. I think it's because of the file is big (4096 x 4096 px..). But it's only in the begining of the game after that the texture is cached on the harddisk.

[Rubini]

Thanks Kriller2,

I will try it again. But I don't remember to see my FPS better again just a few minutes after the game start...

(and thanks for you great terrain mod!)


Rubini.

[oRGy]

As the texture is 4096*4096, most video cards will struggle unless they have 256mb of memory.

[Rubini]

Yes, I have a old Ati 9700 128MB...

Mein lieber Sale,

Du bist der erste, der sich angenervt äußert....mal abgesehen von den netten Leuten im deutschen SH3-Forum, die auf Ihren 'eigenen' Seiten Files von meinen oder SubSim's Servern hotlinken.

you are the first telling me being nerved...nt to mention those nice folks in the german SH3 forum hotlinking on their 'own' sites to files on SubSim's or my servers.

[CWorth]

But I notice a drop in my FPS in some harbours (with HT mod). Someone have notice this too?

Rubini.

I also noticed a good drop in frame rates...My game suddenly started to jump pretty good in harbors and even out in the open ocean.

I had to open the files in Photoshop and resize them to 2048x2048...4096x4096 is simply way to big and a bit of overkill.

How about uploading a file package with smaller textures to my site?

[tankeriv]

I think you should have about three sizes.

1 4096x4096 for 256Mb cards
2 2048 x 2048 for 128Mb cards
3 1024 x 1024 for 64Mb cards

[CWorth]

I'll make a second zip with the 1024x1024 texture sizes as well.

[Rubini]

Oh, great, great! :sunny:

Where I download them?


Rubini.

[CWorth]

The files are uploading to terrapins site now.

I dont know if you can fix a slight error in one of the readme files terrapin.

When I created the zip for the 1024x1024 textures I forgot to redo the readme to state they are 1024x1024.The readme still reads 2048x2048.Thanks.

Will do...btw...the original version even causes a FPS drop on my R 800 pro... :o ...

[Rubini]

Thanks guys,

Downlaod now. :up:



terrapin,

It's in time...thanks to host the new HT mod! ;)

Rubini.

Huh? it isn't online yet...

[terrapin]

ok, the 1024x1024 version is now online...after a quick test I'd recommend this one as standard - looks good and doesn't put too much stress on the system.

[Rubini]

I'm very hurried today! :lol:


Thanks again,


Rubini.

[FLB sale U-999]

Hi Terrapin!


War ja auch nicht böse gemeint!

Eure Seite ist ja wunderbar!

nur manchmal eben etwas nervig zum durchklicken....dann bin ich eben der Bösewicht der es auch mal auspricht....


Aber bitte, bitte versteh mich doch nicht falsch!
Habe schon viele Sachen von eurer Seite geladen und finde diese auch klasse gemacht! :)


Nur mag ich eben diese Schnellverlinkungen wie bei rapid.

Würde mich freuen wenns einer bei Rapid postet (Habs da eben am liebsten)...


Kann man bei euch auch direkte links zu dem Download posten, so dass wenn einer draufklickt, er sofort den Download rausgepopt bekommt, und nur noch ,,Speichern unter" machen muss....!?

Das wäre optimal! :D



Wollte neimanden verärgern hier und böse Luft schüren... :rotfl:

In diesem Sinne, nichts für ungut Terrapin.

MfG Sale

Perhaps the Ati cards don't manage these big textures very well!? :hmm:

But I still notice some FPS down (even with 1024x1024 size), mainly when the interface (Dials, messages and officestations) are on. When I disable it with the numpad DEL my FPS ups again... Any idea?

That's what I think.

Every card has its strong and its weak points. :)

[Rubini]

It's possible, terrapin said that his X800 don't run the big texture well too...It's a shame. :(

[Syxx_Killer]

I've got a RX-700 Pro PCI EX 256MB video card. I didn't notice any drop in FPS... :-?

Hey, I don't think it's a big problem, as we have now 3 different versions available....I'm running the small textures, but if you don't have any problems with the big ones there's no reason to worry about anything...IMHO :)

[Hunterbear]

Great job tankeriv

Now I look forward to diving deep, hehe!

Thanks to all the guys who scaled this puppy down too.

:arrgh!:

[HanSolo78]

What about installation without JaneSoft?
Simply put those files in "Data/Terrain/Textures" and overwwrite?

right

[The Avon Lady]

Terrapin, I see you placed these files in th Skins section. This is confusing as you have plenty of terrain mods in the General mods section.

The server holding the /skins section handles the extremely high demand for these files better.

[Kpt. Lehmann]

Great work! TankerIV!

[Der Kaizer]

I can't find any of tankeriv's mods. Neither here, nor on uboot.realsimulation.

Can someone please post a link or give directions.

Just do a search for 'tanker' at my site. It will find numerous references.

[Jace11]

Also terrapin, I'm having problems downloading anything big from your site. Dial up can take a while to download anything, but after a while your site disconnects me during a download. Not a problem downloading from rapidshare or elsewhere..

[terrapin]

I'm sorry, but I really can't please everyone...no offense meant, but the situation (and my site...) is like it is...

[Achtung Englander]

Hi - I tried to find this on mod on Subsim but failed

what is uit called ? - thanks

[Zinmar]

I also tried to find it but can't seem to locate it.

[Zinmar]

Ok, I found the seafloor, but what about the new torp skins?

[Achtung Englander]

...so..er...what's it called ?

[Soviet_Warlord]

TankerIV, as far as I can tell, has disappeared from the community. After releasing his sea floor mod and announcing his (beautiful looking) torpedo mod, he... disappeared! He hasn't posted since. I sent him two PM's, both unanswered.

I hope TankerIV is alright..... :(

[Excalibur Bane]

I would sure love to get my hands on those torpedo textures. They are ten times better then anything else out there. I love the metallic coloring in that one shot with the black/gold.

Anyone find them or did he never release them? :(

[HW3]

He never released them. His Sea Floor Mod can be found at Terrapin's site in the skins section. Tankeriv disappeared after a somewhat heated discusion with another member here, so I doubt we will ever see his torpedo textures.

What heated discussion?

[Excalibur Bane]

Well, somebody could use that one screenshot for a model to go on with the black/gold metallic torpedos. Not exactly like it's stealing, if he's not going to make anymore torpedo mods. Anyone?

I don't have the skills for it, or I'd do it myself, sadly. :(

[Zinmar]

I agree, what heated discussion. I would really like to get that torp mod he mentioned!! I'm not swift enough to do it myself :88) that is why I so appreciate what all the modders do here!!!

[Vasquez]

Great job!!! But can't find where to download this mod. Have you post it in dowload section? May be I can dowload it from other source? It whould be great to have HI res. textures.... Thank you.

[Soviet_Warlord]

Most mods for SHIII are downloadable from the downloads section of this website: http://u-boot.realsimulation.com/

[GT182]

I have 3 sets of torpedo mods. Not sure if 2 of them are from Tanker or not... there's no name in the readme. One has sikkboy tho.

If I remember right I had Tanker's torp mod that showed copper, green, red and maybe black textures. Is that the one? I can't find it yet.. but I'll keep looking. It is possible tho I deleted the zipfile by mistake.

And if I remember right, I got his from rapidshare. If it's possible to go thru their files somehow they might be found.... again.

TankerIV never released his torpedo skins publicly, but if you PM him you may be able to see them. Thats the only way to get them at the moment.

[GT182]

W-L, right now I don't remember. I thought he'd given them out. Must be the 2 unnamed ones I have are from someone else's then. Possibly Marhkimov's torps.

[trenken]

Uh... no link to the mod?

[Soviet_Warlord]

The seafloor mod should be available at http://u-boot.realsimulation.com/ under the skins & gfx section.
