@ Sailor Steve:

1. Yes, the type II actually had only wheels to actuate the rudders and did not have electric actuators like the type VII.

2. Yes, the engine room will be included when Tomi_99 finished modelling it for SH4.

3. This interiour is mainly converted from Tomi_99's SH4 version, with some additions like the helmsman done by me. So for SH4, the original version of Tomi can be used when it's finished.

4. No, the version of the first page still is the Beta. The new crew members will be included in version 1.0 which hopefully will be released soon :)

Thanks for all the work MCHALO12! It looks really cool.

Is it possible to use the same technique to add a helmsman to the types VII and IX interiors?

Thanks for the answers. I look forward to the finished version.

Hi NewCaptain,

Yes of course, those crew members can be added to any type of submarine. And as you can see in this screenshot, more are to come in the torpedo room:

Important: All added crew members will be static objects without animation in Version 1.0! Creating animation, especially of human bodies is quite difficult, but the goal definitely is to have animations in later versions!

Best regards, MCHALO12.

Thank you for this mod, hopefully more to come !!

Looks pretty cool.
I like.

Hi Kaleuns,

I also did some minor fixes, so the crew members in the torpedo room finally got their playing cards:

I think now it's time to release version 1.0, it will be ready before Christmas.

Best regards, MCHALO12.

MCHALO12 I dont even care if this sounds queer but I love you for making this! Looks SUPERB! The Type II is my favorite boat and I had been wondering why no one had ever done this! You my friend are a god.
:salute:

Very nice http://www.psionguild.org/forums/ima...s/thumbsup.gif

I was never all that crazy on running a VII sardine can, but you mod might change my mind. Great work MCHALO12. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v64/GT182/Thumbup.gif http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...igpic336_1.gif

Thanks guys,

great that you like the torpedo room. But keep in mind that the torpedo room was modelled by Tomi_99 for SH4, I only converted it to SH3 and put in a few new object like the crew and a few things in the command room. So do not forget to thank Tomi as he has done the major part of the work! :)

I hope I will be able to also convert the engine room in near future, so you could walk through the whole type II. Besides I'm going to modell the battery room beneath the floor plates of the torpedo room for those that really want to explore every corner of the boat! :)

Best regards, MCHALO12.

your work will have me coming back to sh3 from sh5

Cant wait for the whole sub! Woot!

RELEASE Torpedo room Type II 1.0
