What a beauty. I've always hoped someone would clean up the PLAN submarines. The Han and Xia models in SCX looked great. Now the Song is looking excellent. Great work.

Hopefully at some point, we'll have 093 and 094 subs to play against.

:o My mouth is watering.

Damn you if you don't eventually release the model to us obsessed DW player.

Oh sick, please TLAM put your work into RA project so we can have this boat in DW :yeah:

Some times smaller is better, at least thats what they tell me...

You'll have to help me on this one... How exactly do I install these new beauties? :hmmm:

Simple. locate cmputil in your mod tools folder and copy it over to graphics.

open a text editor and add the line:
cmputil 3d filename.j3d

save as 'will install files.bat' and run it with all the graphic files in the graphics folder.

Now open the DB editor and open the 3d tab (it looks like a green cube). Find the model you want with the search function or add a new one and copy the file name in. To animate the prop dbl click on the list to the right.

Hope that Helps.

Next Up the North Korean P4 class Midget Submarine! :salute:

Well here to start wrapping up the new fleet of Midget Subs for DW, here is the Yugoslav 'Sava' class sub. Some sources call these midgets while others patrol subs, you decide...

The Iranian Nahong class midget sub. Not much is known about this boat so the weapon's outfit is conjectural; I've armed her with two 533mm fish in drop colliers (it's a safe assumption that mines also could be carried in those drop colliers as well.)

Next is the Russian Losos Project 865 'Piranya'. This big one has only two 400mm torpedoes or two PMT Mines.

Finally there is the Yugoslav Una class. Which is my first unarmed midget, its used for SOF missions incl. Deploying divers in a another even smaller 2 person midget called a 'Mala' to plant limpet mines. (and if you think that's bizarre just try typing 'Yugoslavian Midget' in to Google!)

Also I updated the DPRK P4 class boat. I added a control surface on the stern. Also I have copied the better looking torp drop colliers from the Nahong on to the Yugo. I've updated the old links for these two updated models.

Amazing work mate :yeah:

Keep 'em coming!!! :rock:

Wow TLAM. You are seriously cranking them out!

Hopefully we will see them in CSS one day as well!

hey TLAM,
I dont know if you saw this on the other forum but I remodeled the old Kilo we did all those years ago, here it is......

sorry I went OT here......
http://img33.picoodle.com/img/img33/...1m_85a3a84.jpg

That is very sharp looking there Spook!

Back OT: I don't have any screen shots but I did send copies of my 3d models of the Heroj class coastal sub and the Mala SDV to Molon Labe.

Currently I'm working on the Italian MG110 Midget sub which is used by Pakistan and South Korea.

Now I'm running out of midget subs to make! I plan on making the DPRK Sang-O and a Cuban midget that has cropped up in the form of a single tiny picture on the net. After that there is not many more midgets from the post WWII period. There is a few X Craft and the USS X-1 but those were both retired long before the 1st playable unit in DW was built so it doesn't make much sense to add them in. :hmm2: If someone knows of any feel free to post a message (images would be great)

This might be best split to another thread (do so if need be), but I was wondering if any late WWII era subs might be worthy of inclusion into DW. The idea or "precedent" for this, if you can call it that, was some stories years ago that drug cartels were interested in acquiring them. That also reminds me of the current narco subs (semi subs) that are being used right now. They are comparable to the midgets in size, and would be great in drug enforcement missions.

Finally, while it's been out for a while, the recent coverage of the M80 Stiletto had me dreaming of seeing it in DW too. It's also meant for use against the drug trade. Perhaps their behavior could be based on the stock hovercraft?

I do have models of the US Navy's Guppy class SS(K/G) which maybe included in the future.

Here is a photo of my full collection of subs I've made over the past month.

Anybody updating the Chinese surface and sub Fleet? New models that is of 093, 094, Type 052C, type 051, etc. So far the new Song model and Kilo models look great. You guys do excellent work.

That would be great! The conning towers are a bit higher than the WWII subs I was thinking of, but I suppose it's more reasonable to believe these could survive for use today. I hope you, or some of the other fine modelers here, consider the Stiletto and Littoral ships as well. They would be nice additions for the current pirate/drug era.
