awesome thread.
as ive mentioned several times earlier [but never illustrated so well], the panelling at the foot of the captains bunk, i'd like to see my shore uniform tunic hanging on a coat hanger there.

the uniform tunic would dynamically display my current rank insignia and medals awarded, all ready for next in port.

i think this is a much better way to display your achievements, and during the hours of depth charging you can ponder your knights cross.

A few suggestions, if i may.

As far as i know there was no shower on a type VII or IX. They only had a retractable sink. The shower and a freezer room to store food were some of the big features of the type XXI, together with the hydraulic torpedo loading system and other touches of awesomeness all over the place. I'd give just about anything to see a type XXI modeled in this game.

Also, i doubt they made moonshine on u-boats. Maybe i'm wrong but it sounds like all kinds of stupid to get drunk in one of those things :D Instead of a still, maybe they can have a toolbox there, or they could be running maintenance on a battery power cell pulled from beneath the floor. There's also no sign as far as i can remember of the internally stored reserve torpedo, nor are there any loading animations back there, so that might be something to add as well.

2c.

Conus' Graphics Mod 1.1

Wow.. I ran across this mod just now and it does a lot of nice fix ups and improvements all over the ship. This is exactly the type of stuff I was hoping for... some day would love to figure out how to do myself. :)

Look how he jazzed up the gauges. :) There are high quality upgrades all over the boat.

If I read correctly they write "Gegnerfahr" under the ampere gauge. I guess it belongs on the Torpedo "computer" and not into the electrical engine room. Perhaps this can be fixed by a modder?

My Very First Mod !
Well, not really a mod.. but sort of.

I downloaded Gimp 2.6 and installed it.. fumbled around feeling horridly lost, read a few tutorials that I still felt lost on.... but plodded forward haphazardly and modified the pinups.dds file in SH5.

This is the result

Angelina Jolie drawing is in my sub!!
