Take out the old skin from the texture folder as this will overide
the type VIIB skin.

Look in 'data\textures\tnormal\tex' folder

These files are overriding your VIIB camo scheme:

NSS_Uboat7c_hull.tga
NSS_Uboat7c_deck.tga


(1) Either temporarily move them to a new location, or (2) pack them into the correct .DAT files. Choose (1) if you want the easy and simple solution.


EDIT: fubar, you beat me to it...

Yea I was just checking the forum, I'm working at the moment,
well I should be working.
I must say theres some great mods that have been done and that
are In the pipeline well done everyone :up:

Have done so it overrides but aint working

Umm... I'm fresh out of ideas. Perhaps you are 'accidentally' installing the PLAIN version instead of the CAMO??

I dunno... Maybe fubar has an answer???

Just try using the mod installer.

Everybody should use the Mod Installer. lol

Have you sorted your problem with the skin?
hope so.

Nope . I think it has something to do witht the fact that i once downloader your fubar VIIC skin . The strange thing is that it show up on the VIIB to . I did not use your plain VIIB skin . I tried using the mod enabler but still i do not get the med skin .

Just to be sure on this you did go to 'data\textures\tnormal\tex' folder and take out the old skin files named NSS_Uboat7c_hull.tga
and NSS_Uboat7c_deck.tga and put them say on your desk top.
If you dont do this these files will overide your new camo skin.
I should really pack my old VIIC skin into the data files and upload
again so this would not happen.

That's lovely Fubar! I'm looking forward to getting that one working in SH3 Commander. It should be awesome.

That's great! Look forward to using it!

I finally got around to unpacking the VIIC skin. I browsed around looking at the TGAs. The Turm files included with the VIIC Med skin look like stock files. How can the conning towers be camo when I only see camo for the hull in the TGAs? I'm just confused. :-? :oops:

Type7 u-boats derive their conning skins from the hull template (the top half is the hull, the bottom half is conning). Nothing to worry about...

I just want to thank fubar for his great work. I love your med camo u-boat. I can't wait for the IXD! :)
