Yes I know thats why I have tried to add a rapidshare mirror, but I have been having some serious problems getting into this forum the last 2 days, maybe it has something to do with the release of GWX2?

Now there is a new download mirror for rapidshare try that if you are still having problems downloading.

:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
:o I'm sure her better looks are not the result of your modding. There must be limits even to your skill, Krill.:-j:rock:
LOL! Modding your wife! A bit of 'Nip/Tuck'? :lol: :hmm: :hulk:

Thanks! Dunno how I missed that. :roll:

A couple of observations:
  • The Taiho should not have that much rust, as it was in service for only three months. It should also have more of an overall gray scheme (see below)
  • The gun tub (for the AA guns) on the sub tender still looks icky (I think it's the default texture). Would be nice to get that looking better.
  • The Japanese destroyers (other than the Akizukis) still have too much rust, IMO.
  • The Kongo is still showing too much rust around its superstructure, IMO.
Color artwork of Taiho:

Keep up the good work!

Hi Luke, I can't see the picture? - but if you are right about your observations I will see what I can do to make it more realistic. It's not an dificult task to remove some rust, because i have it on a seperate layer in photoshop, just need to be 100% positive before doing it ;)

Kriller, here's the image I was talking about. It comes from combinedfleet.com (a great reference site for Japanese Navy info):

Some other ideas:

I have the "Warships_retextured_v1_3" folder in my SH4\MODS folder. It contains a "Data" Folder which contains a "sea" folder and a "textures" folder. The "sea" Folder cotnains sub-Folders for each ship.

When I enable the "Warships_retextured_v1_3" Mod in JSGME, I also do not get any report about replacing previous ship files (*.dds). Am I doing something wrong? Are all the new textures being implemented in spite of JSGME not reporting any overwrites of *.dds files during the enabling process?

Hi Doolittle,

See post #71 about this issue.

Yes, I checked that out... I still remain curious as to why there are no *.dds re-writes/over-writes announced when one enables your Warship..etc..Mod.

I guess I can stop worrying about it, as long as I definitely see the new skins... Could I possibly see a screencap of your current/latest Yamato skin compared to the stock/default Yamato? ...I'd like to confirm that I have the new texture/skin working. Thanks.

ustahl 12-13-07 03:20 PM

@Doolittle: The retextured Yamato looks like the picture in posting No. 57, smaller portholes higher up in the hull front section. The originals were lower down, huge & ugly.

You had obviously made the same mistake as I had done:
[quote]Yes, I moved the "warships_retextured_v1_3" to the MODS folder and enabled it - to no effect, really.:nope:
Being in a hurry to see the new beauties in action, I did not look inside and pick the "Warships retextured_install1_3" instead.:oops:[unquote]

Question about two ship files in this mod...
nd_kuma
&
nd_naka

those ships do not correspond to anything in the stock files....
but they come close to the stock files of:
NCL_Kuma and NCL_Naka


does it matter?

u.Prestige 12-22-07 05:55 AM

Excellent!
Any new textures for merchants?:up:

Have you downloaded ver. 1.3 of this mod? there is no ships with those names in the mod :hmm: maybe a left over from another mod?
Cheers!

I have to admit that I do change the Labeling of the files in your mod to an exact match of the game files to advoid possable problem as somtimes there can be a letter case sensitive issue.

nbb_fuso in your mod vs NBB_Fuso in the game file.

Other wise I like the new texture work so far Kriller thanks for it!

Dave

HI Doolittle,
Yes if you look at page #1 of this thread there are two pictures of the Yamato, stock and modded, but I had to remove the chrysanthemum due to some texture-problems.

Yes, most recent version. The two ships you show as nd_kuma & nd_naka do not exist in the stock SH4 directory. Their closest relatives could be... NCL_Kuma and NCL_Naka

Show here...

Hi ATR-42.

I have downloaded my mod to see if how it looks from the first page of this thread and here is a screenshot of the directory in the "Warships retextured_install1_3\data\sea" folder after I unpacked it:
http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/7...tured13cp5.jpg

I don't know why you are getting those directories? But the important thing is that you have the "ncl_naka" and the "ncl_kuma" in the "sea/" directory.

ATR-42 12-23-07 03:42 PM

you know what.... 10 bucks says im just retarded...
i bet because its lower case, and i was doing the work on my laptop which has a small screen and fine resolution, that NCL looked like nd becuase it was lower case. i feel like such a jackass.... :doh:
