That seemed to work. Finally! :lol: Thanks! :yep: Not sure why the hull would affect the conning tower, but it did. :dead:

The Type IIB, however, is still dead in the water. I renamed the tga Typ_2b_Hull and NSS_Uboat2B and placed them in the Texture folder. Neither one worked. :damn: :damn:

As I said try to import textures to the IIB and Turm files.

Any textures will have to be same byte size as the originals to be repacked, remember.

This means to have the .tga's the same colour depth, size etc. I believe Photoshop handles this better than paint shop pro, not sure about irfanview.

Well, I think it finally works! I used timetraveller's SH3 Unpacker to unpack the IIA TGA, then used the DatTexExtract tool to repack the tga into the original IIB DAT. The game no longer crashes when it loads the IIB DAT. I guess just renaming the DAT and then the tga inside with hex edit isn't enough. I think there are other hex strings involved. :doh:

Anyway, thanks for all the help! :yep: :up: :up:

Could you upload your file to Terrapins site or rapidshare, so I could download it? :) I allso think it's a shame the AI boats are so rusty, but it's awesome that they have crew onboard in the new harbourtrafic-mod! I believe it's Sergbutos work? :up:

Ok, I uploaded it to Rapidshare. If terrapin sees this and wants to add it to his site, he can. I used the 7Zip format. It took the file size down from 213MB to only 27MB! You will need the latest version of WinRar or the 7Zip program to unzip it. In time I will probably convert more skins for use with AI subs, but for now these will do. Enjoy. :cool:

Maybe I should start another thread? :hmm:
