Damned Iambecomelife ! Release it ! :D

Good! ^_^

Those skins are very classy http://www.psionguild.org/forums/ima...s/thumbsup.gif

You sir are my hero!!! I can't wait to convert them into SH4 for TSWSM!!!

Actually Sansal and Skwasjer should be your heroes. It's hard to overstate how important their software has been to me. I have very little experience with writing software - they took care of the hard part. I cringe when I remember what things were like back in 2006, when it took over a day just to complete the cloning process for each individual model. With Pack3d and S3ditor, the process literally takes about 5 seconds. For me, that means more time conducting research and modeling - hence, much more variety in ship types is possible.

Privateer, Der Teddy Bar, Racerboy, and many others have also been extremely helpful. :ping:

Another benefit of using Skwasjer's software: I can now make Ship ID images that are a lot neater than the ones cropped from ingame screenshots. I will create one set of profiles optimized for the ingame ID book and another set for the Merchant Fleet Mod PDF.

Excellent work, sir! :up:

One of the last vessels modeled for the initial release - a medium, old-fashioned tanker. It will be assigned to the USA and Britain:

Cool

Now
As that unit has a country specific skin
How are you going to get around that by adding it to 2 rosters ?

It's going to be a cloned vessel in the initial, full version. However, many of the other ships are unique to one major country, and do not need to be duplicated.

Guessed as much

So when I asked the total the other day and you said 40 to 50
Is that total ships or clones too ??


And a merry xmas Iam mate

To you too. With clones the full version comes to about 60 units, give or take.

Most are cloned for nationality reasons; at least one clone will be a Q-ship.
