I thought I still had that mod-but I guess not. FWIW from what I can see the stock surface vessels -even addon FOTR vessels rotate the wrong way. So it's not just the submarines.

From looking at the past posts on this issue there was some good attempts at fixing this problem and way too much drama in the release (whose download link no longer works). If somebody has the fix-and you can't post the file just explain what was done. It appears work was in the GATO dat file when it was originally fixed correctly. FWIW.

From the readme of Historical Prop Rotation (which I totally forgot I had :oops:):

Quote:
This mod does the following:

- Corrects propeller rotation for all US subs.

- Corrects blade orientation in relation to rotation for all US subs.

- Adds a new 4 bladed prop model to the Gato and Balao classes as per historical accuracy.
So it has the 4 blade props in it.

It has the 4 bladed props. Installed it JSGME and manually.

They still turn the wrong way. :haha:

I'm running SH4 Gold 1.5 and TMO 2.5

only one of the download links was broken but its hard to notice there were two separate links there so I fixed it and put space between the links

107 did finally work. I had to click on it several times and it finally loaded it right up. I hate when that happens.:up: did try it out and I also love this mod. its a small mod that makes a huge difference.:sunny::salute:

ok to let someone know. when this mod is applied the Gar class deckgun node is not placed right. I found this out by enabled and disabling different mods. when applied it sets the deck gun for the Gar Class inside the Conning tower. Can someone please fix this. I would but my computer doesn't have the power to handle 3d modeling.

thanks,
drakkhen20:salute:

Anyways, nice work on the model/texture, hope we can find a proper fix for this problem...

Oh and someone mentioned 5-blade props on some Balaos: The post-war Tench class and some Guppy converted Balaos had 5-bladers, not the wartime boats.
