Re: Fleetboat Interior: Officers Quarters...
 

Just to be clear, your saying the plate for the Capt.'s quarters, changes to the name you go by when you start a career & are assigned to a Gato class sub...

If that is the case, then....

Sweeeeettttt.... :Kaleun_Thumbs_Up:

Will see of downloading & adding this to my SH4-UBM FotRS-U-EN mod line up... :Kaleun_Salute:



:Kaleun_Cheers:

Edit: Downloaded...

no.. you have to edit the .dds texture manually

Ahr-teest! Ahr-teest! Bravo! Excellente! etc etc etc. Wow! and a drop-in for FotRSU! We will have to do a link for this in the FotRSU release thread, of course! :salute:

This is fantastic! Excellent work!

Sigh.
Now it looks like I might have to finally move on from my customized TMO install. (Learning a new control layout is going to be a pain...)





This is looking great! Thanks for putting in the effort!
:salute:

Absolutely fantastic! I remember seeing a similar mod years ago that went dead; great to see this accomplishment!

Years waiting this....Awesome! :Kaleun_Cheers:

Downloading now....

Many thanks for the great job and congrats, Vickers, old master! :Kaleun_Applaud:

Best regards.

Re: Fleetboat Interior: Officers Quarters...
 

Ahh... ok, thanks for clarifying that... was thinking it was something that was auto done, but still... sweeettt... a nice lil' personal touch to see in game none the less...

:Kaleun_Thumbs_Up: :Kaleun_Applaud: :Kaleun_Cheers:

This is absolutely fantastic, BZ!

Re: Fleetboat Interior: Officers Quarters... further clarifcation please...
 

Just to clarify, is that the .dds texture or is that meant to be the .dsd texture file.?

Looked for .dds & did not see any, yet noticed .dsd

Again, just wish to make sure am looking at the right file to look at modifying...


:Kaleun_Thumbs_Up:

Edit: After doing some more digging through the folders, found it... only question now is... what to use to edit the name plate..???

:k_confused:

Gimp.

Balao added.

Nice work. Still surprised to see this after all these years.


Are you planning on doing releases for TMO by any chance, or just FOTRSU?
And based on the name, do you plan on doing the S-boat, as well?

shhh!!!! don't interrupt! He still has more subs to do for FotRSU!!!... :har:

Yes, of course!

Lol!

Does anyone have performance problems with this mod?

I do see a rather large performance hit, though I still do not go below about 45fps on my destop, which is an nVidia 560Ti inside an old DuoCore E8350 quad-core with 8 gig of RAM. My thinking is that with the camera coming from the original CR "pivot point", that a person down by the officer's kitchen is thrown about from floot to ceiling, but I don't know if that affects the lower end of the fps or not. I think it does rather well, for all of the info you've had to add. Is it possible to add like a "NSS_Gato_FR" folder and set of files instead of attaching it to the CR files? Or does that ruin the open hatch? My guess is that the game does not have an "attachment" point for inside the sub, if done separately? :salute:

I have 30 FPS fixed via Nvidia Inspector and no change in FPS with the interiors. Mi PC is powerful but not a top notch.

Regards.
