Sorry, I don't mean to push it, but that's what I thought you guys had in mind... :roll:

I already offered my help, the files are there when needed :)

So why don't you just ask sergbuto to let you take care of?... I mean, since you are willing to do it, that makes sense, right?

It seems to me that Sergbuto has done his bit - all the boats now have his great reflections, with everything including snorkels and periscopes reflecting properly. Perhaps the Type IXs could do with a tweak in regard to the conning towers reflecting a little bit too far forward, but it's not essential. I think the next stage is for Flakwalker (if he's willing to do them all) to do cable fixes for all the boats. Once that's done, it's a matter of getting the necessary skins in (that's the easy bit). Where two boats with broken cables share the same file, the stand-alone 'boat model' (for lack of a better title) mod should probably fix cables for the most common types. Once we have a full set of fixed boats, I can get the alternate versions into SH3 Commander so that every boat in the game can have the correct reflection and the correct cable, and (if everyone agrees) a nice new Fubar skin. Plus, we'll probably have to think about CCIP's and Jungman's Sensors.dat file mod, which is a popular mod that many people are using, which is impacted by these changes.

So how about we set up a little mod team for this project?

Mod teams are always a great idea, in theory. They are damn hard to manage, though... Hats off to Beery if he can pull it off...

*wishes he was smart enough to be on mod team*

The SH3 Mod Team is 50 people strong. It's been chugging along for 6 months as a sort of leaderless affinity group, and in all that time we've never had any serious problems, and we published a bunch of very successful mods (including RUb, Ops, and a bunch of smaller stuff). So I think 4 to 6 people can manage themselves for a week or two. :-j

I hope Flakwalker feels like working with the new version 2 reflective files... it is a great idea.

We sometimes ask much from the more technical modders. :yep:

Flakwalker and Sergbuto, thank you much for the work you have already done. :yep: :yep:

I hope the cable fix and reflection mods will be joined. It is just a little farther to go.

:arrgh!:

And let's not forget the periscope and schnorkel relfection/wake bug

I think those are fixed in the Reflections Mod version 2 that Sergbuto just released and is what I am referring to. :yep:

I'll include the reflections fix 2.0 and flakwalkers fix into the next version of IuB anyway. Along with fubar's skins, of course.

Kewl!!!!! I didn't know you could hex-edit. :up: :up: :up:

It's fairly easy - my biggest problem is bloody shareware hex editors running out on me.

Anyway new version of IuB won't be for a couple of weeks I'd say. I need a break for a little bit...

oRGy, try this: http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delph...vi32/xvi32.htm
It's a freeware Hex Editor, no advanced stuff, just a free and small program.

OOOooh OOOooh!!! Wait!!! Please one last itty bitty fix pleeeeeeze???? :yep:
