just hope someone finishes this someday or starts a new one, with SH 5 looking so shabby, I have feeling a fully modeled fleetboat interior for mods like TMO RFB would be a big hit.

At least the crew don't glow in SH4 !!

I am in full agreement. With all the great work that has been done up to this point, it would be a shame for this WIP not to finish.

@Captain America
looks like Tomi_099 had a similar problem with
baking lightmaps and importing, to make it short
it seems they have found a solution to this:

the eyes have an animation node that is seperate, and it also has its own 3d

The lightmap problem was a show stopper for the project. Also, at that time sh5 was just over the horizon so it wasn't too hard to say goodbye to the old and hello to the new.

Unfortunately, instead of the birth a new sim, we got an abortion (IMO). Sadly, unless some miracles happen, I may never own sh5. I've also read statements/speculation of no further continuation with the series. This makes sh4 more important than ever now.

I would like to report that the lightmap issues are now solved!!!! :woot:

Thank you vickers03! I was browsing this thread a couple of days ago and saw your post. If you had not posted that link I would have never starting tinkering again.

A big thanks to Nisgeis for his words of wisdom posted in that link. It ended up being a smoothing issue. Apparently, the game does not like multiple smoothing groups within a single element. I had most of my geometry welded together so that was corrupting the lightmap. Instead I had to detach parts of the model according to smoothing group into separate elements.

The project lives!

I will continue work on this project. I don't envision dropping the project again but as insurance I will turn over my work to the community if that happens. There are plenty of talented individuals here that could pick up the torch and complete it.

The next couple of days I will be putting the pieces back together. I have to clean the dust off and get by bearings again. I am in the process of going over my existing work and cleaning it up and improving it further.

I'll be posting some updated pics soon. Thanks again to all for your help and interest in the project.

You're so right about that. SH5 IS a total letdown. Also with the DRM, It just sucks.

Allright!!! I was just hoping for that to happen. Keep concentrating your efforts on this project!

The more great mods like this that come out for SH4, the less I find myself playing SH5.
Strange, somehow.......................:hmmm:
GREAT work, Capt. America!

Amen to that! SH5 has core issues that are beyond repair by even the most talented modders, if only they released a SDK but that's very unlikely.

Thank you for all your work Captain America!:rock: Hopefully you'll stick with the Silent Service for a long time. :salute: There's so much that can still be done to improve the SH4 experience, this mod is an example.

I have been hanging with SH5 since I receive my Pre-Ordered (big Mistake) copy of SH5. Because of all the issue's, I get so frustrated playing that GAME. It will be refreshing to return to a SIM.

You just made my Sunday!!!

:yeah::salute: so happy to hear this project is back on, can't wait to be able to roam other parts of fleetboats one of these days! welcoem back Capt America:woot:

Ditto - this is GREAT news.... Today couldn't get much better!

Happy Hunting!
