How do the flag markings get placed on the hull? I've tried to get some civilian japanese ships in SH4 marked up like that, but I lack the skill it seems. I end up with bits of meatball all over the ship, lol.

These are really excellent... I think we should seriously try and recruit this fellow for the SH4 "add ships" project! Fame, glory and all the Japanese shipping you care to model... :up:

I would really like to hear about your pipeline and workflow if you care to share some insights. :cool: I'm sure I could learn something!

I have question for iambecomelife:

As I right understand you can made ships from foto. So I have question - can you made 1 soviet cargo ship from 1 foto? It's 1 from 5 NKVD cargo ships and it's ship was not in navy or merchant fleet USSR.
Ship name - Sovetskaya Latvia.

I usually add a single flag to the hull and it appears in three places on each side of the ship when I load it. If I want only one or two flags on each side then I use the section of the hull that holds the text (actually a very heavily modified liberty ship deckhouse). The SH3 ships seem to be easier to skin than the ones for SH4. I have heard a couple of complaints about SH4 models having repetitive textures.

Do you have a photograph of this ship? I just checked a merchant recognition manual and I could not find it.

I think you should wait to release until your work is all finished. What you have here looks stunning, but what would be more, is a huge change in the way we see the enemy all at once.

IMHO

That's been my opinion too. I want people who are used to sinking the same 12-15 different merchants over and over again to experience some major diversity in shipping. Hopefully when you see that dot on the horizon you will be eager to discover exactly what type of craft it's going to be this time. Plus, the number of paint schemes coming with the mod should make it possible never to see the same ship twice in a single career.

denis_469, check your PM please

denis_469 10-09-07 01:05 AM

iambecomelife - you have e-mail and PM.

Thank you. That's a very attractive design. I don't know if it can go in the original release which is very nearly closed but maybe in the expansion pack.

Well. I would wait it ship. And search more data about 4 other NKVD ships. Now I know ship names it ships and all be foreign made. 3 ex-british ships and 1 ex-dutch ship.

If I find info can I send it you?
