Hey you don't rush great work there sonny.
Looking great there Fubar! :up:

It´s looks sooo nice :o
very nice screens
great work !! take your time
:up: :up:
Very nice!
Don't forget about the VIIC/41 skin, either! ;)
Also, if you would, please reconsider the texturing on the AA and deck guns. The breech as you painted it is grey, not to mention the sight ring and barrels are also painted grey. From the pictures I've seen, these were all a very dark grey or black color, not the light grey as seen in your texturing. The link you have for Topp's "Red Devil" boat is really helpful in this regard.
The same goes as well for the curved "shoulder padding" the sailors brace themselves against when firing the AA guns (should be a brownish color) and the deck gun (should be black/dark grey).
This is really the only thing I can say about I dislike about your work; everything else is really top-notch. If you'd give these another look that would be awesome. Thanks!
Wow...amazing work fubar. Just to let you know, I was interested more in the lighter grey/white color but I'll take the great detail you've done so far. :rock: You rock!

Great picture...I mentioned this before...notice the smoke from the real photo? I was wondering if theis could be done...to add a little smoke from the engines? I posted this before but some felt there is no smoke for various reasons/but the phot here is evidence that smoke would help in the visual depiction of theses subs.

Also, if you would, please reconsider the texturing on the AA and deck guns. The breech as you painted it is grey, not to mention the sight ring and barrels are also painted grey.
I don't think been coloring them grey intentionally. While experimenting, i disabled all skins excpet for his latest XXI skin, and when i went to look at a IXC boat, i noticed that barrels were all grey, but the breech was black, along with all other various parts, it looked really cool. I had thought fubar retouched his GUNS_SUB.dat file when he did the XXI skin. I then used this file and reactivated all his other sub skins im using and the guns were solid grey again.
So i think this is a function, side effect, or some mask of some sort that the game uses with the default skins, im not sure how its doing it.

01-31-06, 01:06 PM
Just a question, if anyone knows offhand.... if you swap a skin mid-patrol while SH3 is running, will the new skin appear on the boat?
The reason I ask, is that when boats were refitted between patrols, they were repainted, after a week or two at sea they would begin rusting again, and would prove weather beaten by the end of an 8 week patrol...
Im just wondering about the implications of simulating something like this within SH3....

01-31-06, 01:13 PM
If it's just graphics (TGA) files there shouldn't be any problem. If it involves changing any other files (except sound files), DON'T! You're only asking for trouble.
Skweetis
01-31-06, 01:24 PM
Hmmm... ill have to experiment with this at home tonight... if I can find a way to track time while SH3 is running, I can swap the tga.s and hopefully It will appear in game with the new ones.....
Ill chew on it for a while..... though, Im thinking its not possible... otherwise it would have been done by now....
Mmm...fubar been pretty quite. Must be hard at work. :)

Ah right, for a sec I thought it was a 2nd 105mm DG :/ Anyway, in what year does this become available? Because right now I've got a IXC in 1941 and I still can't put a 37mm on it. :

Excellent, excellent work, Fubar! I can see quite a few refinements in this skin, in comparision to your older type IX skins.
Oh, and thank you for re-working the flak and deck gun textures. They look really good now! :yep:

Outstanding as always, fubar :up:
I can't wait for your U-552 skin. I've got a picture of that boat hanging on the wall in front of me, in that exact same look, and I've always wished to have a skin that combined your VII template with just a little bit more weathering. And that one seems to be perfection for my taste.
Please make it soon :yep:
Good Lord!! :up: As always...outstanding work fubar.

Fubar, when I select the 1945 version of the IXC I get this funky mapping problem:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v258/LukeFF/SH3Img4-2-2006_11.jpg
What could be causing this?
Crop-Duster
02-04-06, 11:40 AM
Skin is for a IXB- disable the mod if you use the IXC
As crop duster said its not for the type IXC
but with that setup you can see what speed your boats doing :lol:
fubar, if you ever get time - I've always itched for a darker IX skin, especially since I saw this picture...
http://www.ww2incolor.com/gallery/german-navy/u_805?full=1
A non-worn-out version of that would make a great-looking boat I think :)
Anyway, the current selection of IX skins is getting better by the day!

What about an IXD2 skin? In the pipeline? Or has anyone already produced an excellent one?
EDIT: Fubar, I found your IXD skin file, dated Nov. 18. There was a reported problem with the in-game conning tower showing up (see this thread (http://www.subsim.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=45372)). Was that resolved?

I've been using it with the IXD2 and haven't had problems so far. I think it was, though you may want to have the corresponding IXB/C skin installed along with it to compliment the tower setup.

You mean there's something in the IXB/C skin mod that fixes the tower error in the IXD mod?
You're referring to the stock game tower texture showing up on fubar's IXD2, right?
I think it's because he didn't initially include the Turm_9c files, which are shared by all IX boats. Should be fine now.
Hi.

The guy above is using the same screenshot from page 2

I dont want do other screen. If you want i can do a new screen but what for ????
Ther is an error in Turm9c_2_hd.dat. There is used TGA with is only for Turm9c_1_hd.dat. Now i try to correct this but this is not easy.
Fubar, does the snorkel texture file allow for more detail to be added? If possible, it'd be cool to see details like those seen on this page (for the Type VII):

Ther is an error in Turm9c_2_hd.dat. There is used TGA with is only for Turm9c_1_hd.dat. Now i try to correct this but this is not easy.
The issue is that the IXB and the IXCs both use that particular DAT file. If you want the texture to show up correctly you have to load the DAT file for the boat you want to use. SH3 Commander, btw, makes this process really easy.

Yes. All's OK ingame with the tower after installing just the IXD Mod files. :up:
oki but where is this mod ??? :cool:
This is a TGA file witch correct a texture for U-boot IX B with 2, 3 tower type.
Unpack this file to \SilentHunterIII\data\Textures\TNormal\tex\

The typ VIIC skin looks awesome... any news on when its ready?
SORRY GUYS my net was down
This splinter type camo is for the type IXB, are you all haveing
this deck issue?
On my setup this skin works fine but if you want I can upload
the files so they are not inside there DAT files.
Also when I have done the type VIIC which won't be to much longer
do you want me to put the tga files in there DAT files or leave them
as tga's.
LukeFF the snorkel texture I will have a look at to see if we can add
more detail.
I prefer Tgas myself. Easier to quickly change skins that way, and easy access for editing...

I installed the splinter camo skin and work perfectly, looks very well :up: :up: after two months at sea , my rusty Ix-b, now i have a fresh and thick layer of paint in my sub :|\ :up: :lol:
And despite isn´t modelled in the game, the sub is less visible in storm weather.
i love this cleans skins, in 28 days in port there are enough time to paint a new layer of paint in the sub, and prevent hull corrosion.
Extract the skin files of the dat and import again is easy with the DatTexExtract utility :88)

I beleive so. The deck issue isnt present in the IX/1 tower.
But the instant you have an IX/2 or IX/3 tower you get the deck problems.
I've uploaded the type VIIC U552 skin at
http://u-boot.realsimulation.com/
http://hosted.filefront.com/fubar45
as Terrapin is back in action, the files are tga files so if you want to
put them in there DAT files you will need Chessmaster 10 Dat textures extractor in this forum List of modifs. / mod tools / mod tips (UPDATED 08/11/2005)
But you can just use the tga's if you wish but this means this skin will then be used for the type VIIB also anyway I hope you all like it

Just make your own .dat, its dead easy:
just open the dat file with the dattexextact.exe tool and open the files that will replace the old ones. Backup your old dat of course, and stick the new one in a mod folder for JSGME, with all the necessary sub-directories.
here's a link to the tool:

Loved the U552 Skin. I have all your skins and my entire UBoat fleet comprises of your skins now.
I am so happy with the the timing of the new U552 skin release as I am using VIIC in my current campaign. It proved very lucky on its first mission. I sunk three King George V BBs in a single patrol (yes I know unbelievable, but I dont play at 100% realism, 54% is my sweetspot) and totalled 143k+ tonnage (thanks in part to my Deck Gun crew). I say lucky because I met with a task force with two King George V BBs in it and managed to sink them both (December 21, 1940) and then went into Scapa Flow and Sunk the parked King Gearge V BB (December 23, 1940).
Keep up the good work Fubar.

OMG: A disgrace for German cleanliness!!
One thing's for sure, you know how to paint man!
I especially like the weathering on the tower.
Personally I would have preferred the color to be a bit more greenish and without the light areas on the hull - Might be wrong but I think the light areas on the photo are nothing but reflections. I think weathering might be somewhat overdone too.
But this is going to be my new IXC late war skin, for sure. Thanks! Fantastic job!!

Trenken you can use the type VIIC U552 skin for the type VIIB but
it doesn't have the type VIIB conning tower deck I made also the
detail around the conning tower on the main deck will not be quite
wright.

Trenken you can use the type VIIC U552 skin for the type VIIB but
it doesn't have the type VIIB conning tower deck I made also the
detail around the conning tower on the main deck will not be quite
wright.
Ok I've uploaded the IXC LATE WAR skin It can be found at this link
http://files.filefront.com/FUBARS_IXC_late_warrar/;4785100;;/fileinfo.html
Thanks Fubar. I tried it out and it looks good to me.
But the IXC skin can't be used on the VIIB right?

Hi fubar,
Just found this over at the SHIII German website in the mods forum. Foobar made a map skin called the skinner's nightmare. Good lord! :huh:

Download mirror: Fubar's IXD Skin (http://www.filefront.com/?filepath=/theofpfaq/sh3/SH3_Mod_FubarsIXDSkin.rar).
I'm currently using it for my IXD2 as well. :yep:
Just make your own .dat, its dead easy:
just open the dat file with the dattexextact.exe tool and open the files that will replace the old ones. Backup your old dat of course, and stick the new one in a mod folder for JSGME, with all the necessary sub-directories.
Which skins should I put in the .DAT file? All skin .tga's or only NSS_Uboat7c_hull.tga and NSS_Uboat7c_deck.tga?
Edit: Never mind, I've tried to put all the files in the .dat file and it's not even possible... Didn't know that. Still how can I prevent the type VIIB to make use of the VIIC flakgun textures?
H all
Emcon I use the chessmaster DAT extractor you can get it here
ftp://ftp.ubi.com/us/games/chessmaster10/misc/DatTexExtract.zip
if you tell me which tga files you wish to put in there DAT files I should be able to tell you where to find them.
As regards to you useing the VIIC flakgun textures you could put
the UFlak_High.tga file in the texture folder in your game, find your
Ubisoft folder on your system and open it then open silenthunterIII
folder then open data folder then open Textures folder then open
the TNormal folder then place the UFlak_High.tga file in the tex folder then your done. However by putting this file in the Tex folder
it means this flak file will be used for all flak guns and deck guns
on all uboats I hope this helps you.
Ok guys you asked if I could make a skin like this type VII41
http://www.modellversium.de/galerie/artikel.php?id=1689
I've had afew problems with the conning tower because of the
texture repeat problem on these conning towers so I had to make
some compromises with the layout, I've still got alot to do on this skin I want to make a new main deck like in the pics of the model
and a new con deck anyway heres afew pics of what I've done at
this point

Thank you, Fubar! Now I will finally have a unique skin for the VIIC/41. :up:

THX, Fubar :sunny:
I'm allready using the chessmaster DAT extractor. So far it worked, I only wondered if I could put the UFlak_high.tga (and some other files) in a DAT file. Because I don't want the VIIB to make use of this file. But I guess there is nothing that can prevent that, right? So each time you want to change boats you have to install/uninstall the skin mods if I'm not mistaking.
This are the files I would like in a DAT file (however not possible, I guess):
Turm7c_3_deck.tga
UFlak_High.tga
conning_stuff.tga
mask_type7.tga
NSS_Uboat7c_coning.tga
Turm7c_1_deck.tga
Turm7c_2_deck.tga
And ofcourse the Deck and Hull tga's, but I did manage to put them in a DAT file.

Your skins just keep getting better and better. I am sure looking forward to your latest skin. :yep: There are so many good looking skins being produced as of late, it is quite hard to decide which one to use. :88)
I was wondering, would you be able to do a Type IXC skin that looks like U-534 in it's present state? I've been thinking for quite a while that it would be cool to prowl the seas in a sunken sub. Maybe the large dings in the rear starboard side of the sub could be skinned somehow? Here's a link to U-boat.net's page about U-534 if that would help.

I would like that as well. Just the grey part without anything else.
Jonz the crew skins are part of the RUB MOD so you can find them in that mod
Emcon your right about the UFlak_high.tga file it will be used for all
the aa guns and deck guns of all the uboat types, its the way the
devs hard coded the game sorry. Do you still wish me to tell you which tga's in your list go in what DAT files if you do I'L check for you.
Syxx killer your joking right?
Venatore and Jonz yea that should be possible I'l give it a go.
Do you still wish me to tell you which tga's in your list go in what DAT files if you do I'L check for you.
I know about the NSS_Uboat7c.dat (only the deck and hull tga go in this file) if there are more .DAT-files, yes tell me.
The hull tga is 32bit this time so it doesn't fit in the .DAT file.
Anyways great mod, it's even better than your U552-mod. I keep hitting F12 :D

Hi all
I had these skins on my system and I thought some of you may want them.
I need to finish them but should have something ready for downloading by

The first skin is based on the film DAS BOOT, I tried to match colour and detail.
It also has a knew main deck.

Beautiful skins as always Fubar.... you do very fine work. :up:
Is there a chance you could do the IX/D2 in all Dunkelgrau 52? It seems there aren't too many skins that have been done for this U-boat. I thought I liked the VIIs and IX/B and C but the D2 is one awesome boat in her own right and needs an awesome skin that only you can do. ;) The one you've shown above is good but all one color would be nice.
As a dedicated fubar-skin follower, I demand that you release them as soon as possible! Great stuff! :yep:

Vonklausevitz I've mad a type IXB but as yet no VII splinter camo sorry.
William516 great fun skin, now you can bite enemy ships as well as sinking them with torp's.
here's a pic of the next skin which is finished

Hi mates!
One question... is it possible to do the .dat files of u-boats multiple skins ready like with other ships? wouldn´t it be great to start with "different subs"?

Quite a good question would be great if this come true.:up: :up:
Would be a great idea! :D
Another beauty of a skin fubar. ;)
Your skins are great as alway Fubar. I just wish FileFront would work, all I get is a blank page. Any chance of uploading them to UBRS someday?

Folks,
as I had most of the day no internet access (cable failure, now going on since 16 hrs) it will take some time until these files are transferred to the d/l location.
Well, seems we have a 'Admin-On-Dialup' nostalgic fest this weekend....:damn:
That is super nice Fubar. :up:
Terrapin, sorry to hear that.... it's always a pain to have to use dialup. Make em pay you for the loss of using your broadband. We can do that here our State.... if you lose access to our broadband they will deduct that time you were without it from your cable bill. ;) But you have to say something to your provider to get it done.

Hah, I sent more than one torpedo through the phone line today!
LMAO.... I bet you did too. ;) I'd be doing the same too...and have on several occasions. LOL
I'll get Fubars IX/D2 cammo when you're all fixed up again. I can wait a bit.... It's not yer fault mate. Just blame it on Bernard. :yep:
Aaaah...no biggie Terrapin, we all hate when that happens. :damn:

Fubar, your incredible artistic talent is only surpassed by your generosity. Thank you very much for taking the time to make these beautiful skins and most of all, for sharing them with us! :up:
If I had a fraction of your abilities, I'd pursue my own silly idea for a skin: A bright yellow submarine with the Beatles as the watch crew. :88)

strange...I just entered 'Schlickgrau' as UBRS DLC query and the system found it in 0.02 seconds...took me 2.5 seconds:damn:

This skin has the later war scheme as used on U805
http://img133.imageshack.us/img133/5889/ixcnz0.jpg
I was wondering, where does one find out what paint schemes that existed on uboats? I dont recall ever being able to find a reference on any of them, so im really curious as to what other paint schemes existed. If theres an orginal photograph of this paintscheme id love to see it. Im not questioning the authenticity, i just love looking at the old photo's.

Not too many pictures, but nicely describes the paint schemes used. It's a pretty exhaustive paper.

Ohh thanks, this is good stuff.
That's a great find JScones. BTW does anybody know if the Type XXI U-Boats had different camo (done be the crew) or were they all the same camo pattern straight from the ship yards?

Ok im at my wits end.
Apparently some of the TGA's are "RGB-Alpha, 2 layers". Theres some transparency in the background and i cant figure out how to get rid of it. As long as the TGAs are in this state, you cant import them into a dat. I ilke my skins packed in their dats to save on memory, so im kinda annoyed that i cant figure out how to convert this damn file into "RGB, 1 layer".
Using the Gimp. If anyone can tell me how, id appreciate it cause im really ticked off with it right now.
Great skins, everybody! Is it possible to make a skin looking like i.e the Bismarc or the scharnhors skins? Black in bow and stern, with camo in the middle?

Oh, and I finally got into your FileFront Download page. Now clicking on "continue to filefront " is working again.
I've now got 4 dvds of mods saved with still more to do. :yep: :D And that's not every mod out..... only the ones I wanted. Anyone got a spare terabyte HDD they can lend me? LOL {just kidding}
:o
I finished shoveling my driveway this afternoon and I'm damn tired. We got hit with a blizzard here in Denver. Seeing that last U-Boat gives me the chills.

Thats probably as close as you will get without running into the repeating texture problems of the Uboats.So you will never get a 100% accurate skin.

Thanks for all the nice comments
pierreandre, CWorth has given you your answer it is because of the bloody texture repeat problem on the conning towers
Kpt. Lehmann it was an honour to play a small part in GWX, thanks to you and Boris
for the invite to help:up:
I'l get these done soon.
Merry Christmas Kpt. Lehmann and to all at SUBSIM.

Mast, you had to dig out too. Yeah it drifted bad out here by 6th and Buckley. Especially since there's an open field to the north of the block, and I'm the 3rd house from the corner.
