Now fix the periscope's heads. They have weird grills instead of lenses.

I’ll try doing more than periscope heads for next update... :03:
This is typical texture mismatching i’m Fighting with, in numerous OM glitches.

It seems my Update 2 isn’t compatible with save game, because of campaign fixes by FOTRSU team.
So best is starting new career to avoid CTD :yep:

Post #1 updated :salute:

All periscopes head and body have been changed for better ones.
Now we see the lenses.
Will be available for next update :up:

I may include the Volumetric Clouds mods to next update...IF i can adjust some undesirable effects with OMEGU :yep:

That's really nice, but clouds give too much light reflexion on some U-Boats (not this one as you see)

I check this thread everyday to see what improvments you make. :Kaleun_Cheers:

Thanks my friend :)

My skills reach limits very quickly sometimes, and it takes me numerous hours to try things for OM enhancement :oops:
Ie whole afternoon importing stuff from other mods, just to realize either it’s not good, either it brings lots of others problems...
That’s life :timeout:

Anyway, after all the periscopes :D, i’m currently enhancing types II.
The type IIC has a brand new turm (almost finished) from WAC5, and i’m quite satisfied with it. It’s night and day now :yeah:
After that i’ll work on type IIB and D...if i didn’t brake my PC in the mean time :haha:

All right, first type II done!

As usual, before/after sequence:

Pretty good :Kaleun_Cheers:

OMG!!
I thought the VIID was the harder to be re-worked, but just checked the IXC 1940...and what a bad surprise :timeout:
Incredible :o
He has 4 periscopes whose 2 are horizontals under water :doh: and textures are all messed up everywhere...

I think i’ll Have bad time to rebuild everything there...and probably restart from scratch :wah:

Next update should take more time than expected, sorry :k_confused:

Okay, i am done with the IXC 1940...
Had to import almost all from WAC. The rendering is just stunning!
I'm in love with this baby :)
Everything is now corrected, and no more visual glitches...with plenty eye candy :yep:

Had to figure out plenty things, whose the hardest one was the ambiant occlusion...for my poor skills :oops: But result is not bad i think.

Love it so much, i might import others full subs...but it's huge work :D

Nicely done, young feller! :salute:

Fiifi
Looks stunning, :Kaleun_Applaud:I wonder if that will now sort out the problem with the missing winter garden in the IX in Flotilla 2?
Peter

Thanks both of you!

I’m not aware of the missing winter garden...have to say i don’t have time to test all U-Boats in career mode for the moment :oops:
I will count on you for this matter :yep:
But my guess is more a campaign file issue for flotilla 2 than a graphic problem...we will see later on what’s going on.

Importing whole subs is very time consuming, and my plans are to import first, and test after.
I’m just testing rendering for each sub with the war patrol mission actually.

I'm thinking that the wintergarden would be associated with the turms. Myself, I've not done enough noodling in OM, nor am I familiar enough with all of the Uboat variations, so which version are you referring to there THEBERBSTER, the IXC? Are there guns on the one you are referring to, but it's just an inappropriate flak decking configuration for the boat? I had always referred to "wintergarden" as the "porches", fore and aft, for the mounting of flak guns, but I know some refer specifically to the Type VII U-flak boat version as "wintergarden"... :salute:

Wow wow wow :Kaleun_Applaud:

I'm going to return to SH4.

I already noticed a type IX (maybe the IXB?) has second rear flak directly on deck, like the front deck gun...and no rear winter garden.
Maybe it’s the one Peter is referring to?

When i will come to this one for importation, i’ll See if it is normal or not.
Maybe it’s normal though...

OM has so many different turms and hulls, it’s driving me mad sometimes.
Not that easy to find out my way through all this!
