I have a career going on with U-93. I've checked with all the emblem mods and they don't have a U-93 emblem. I guess this is one of the unknown emblems. :cry: Does anybody have a book with it's emblem in it? Thought I'd check here. I will go check Uboat.net after this.

Just checked Uboat.net and there was an emblem for U-93 but there seems to be no picture of it. :down: Bummer...

Not sure if this applies to U-93 but, some u-boats only used the flottilla emblem and never had their own personal emblem.

Yes, if it was a late-war boat (which I doubt considering it's numbered 93) it most likely would of just had a flotilla emblem (to make it harder for enemies to track movements of each boat).

Glad you got, it. I was busy with work couldn't get to the scanning.

Ok,

After hearing from lafeeverted that the devil was red, I used photoshop and made the devil red. Took about a half hour but not too bad. Here's a pic of U-93 getting ready to depart. :)

There are already hi-res U-boat and flotilla emblem packs available. Just search The Community Manual (http://www.communitymanuals.com/shiii/) for "emblems".

Why work when it's already been done? :roll:

Because of satisfaction of doing something myself ;)

U93's emblem may not be included in that pack, it is not in the hi-res pack I have installed.

As noted already, they may have used the flotilla's laughing swordfish emblem.

The emblem he wanted was not in either download. And why not? :-j

If he wanted the flotilla emblem, then he could have used it. It was pretty clear through the progression of the topic that this is not what was wanted. I am not trying to be offensive however, sometimes the often used answer "read the FAQ" or "use the search function" or a friendly " look at the Community manual " is helpful. Sometimes it is a little condescending as it seemed to me to be the case here ( ie: ending your post with :roll: )

Whatever.

I had the U-93 a few careers ago and I could not find at the time any information on the web that the U-93 had a unique emblem. Would have been nice to know at the time.

Where did you get the U-93 emblem info from?

U-Boat emblems of World war 2
by George Hoegel

ISBN 0-7643-0724-X

Good listing of each boat with drawings of the emblems as well as other information

Also look at the link provided to the emblem, this seems to have a lot of the same information about U93 and may provide a lot of the same info as the book.

ooops, nevermind,I guess the link was just an upload of the image and not online information of all emblems.

So these three images were the logos for U-93?

Would you like me to see if I can make these emblems for SH3?

I got it through Amazon as well. Amazing what you can find, especially trying to track down some of the older out of print books using Amazon and Barnes and Noble. My wish list keeps growing and as does the urge to click and buy!

Sure...that would be great. I'm sure you could do a better job than me. Will you make it high res? I tried to make a smile but it came out wrong, so I just removed it. Happy with what I did. Thanks Crash Dive for the compliment!
