Sounds like he has a pilot bail from a shotdown aircraft and maybe end up in a raft?:hmm: :rock:

LOL...no its not.

Isn't in truth anything new, just an old wish, a tribute for SH3, a bunch of well made SM campaign game where you will have the opportunity to see all SH3 goodies, will have more interaction, the dinamic campaign in the background, all them starting and ending in port, some with sequence, Enigma machine used and necessary in all missions, etc.

Now lets wait for the first beta release and them we can talk more about it.:up:

Anyway it´s making me nervous just to adjust the first SM:damn:

Ooh, that sounds a lot cooler than a swimming pilot. :hmm:

Since everyone likes to zoom in close for screenshots,
I'll be updateing the 3D Models with better details.

It took awhile to get the Biped built and working
properly for the newer model.

But here's an early PlayBlast of my Haunebu Pilot.
It will give you an idea of what's in the works.

Jeeze...demanding people :) I just loaded the mod and looks very cool. Two questions

1) I sank a Small Frieghter. Some debris came out (oil drums, crates, and I like the circular life preservers) and ONE boat. Do the number of lifeboats scale with the size of the ship sunk? (ie does a LARGE Cargo ship release 4 lifeboats?) or is it random.

EDIT: Nevermind...answered my own question after I sank a Large Merchant. Very cool how the Lifeboats and debris scale to the ship size!

2) I noticed an "Optional" folder. I saw the readme, but didnt quite understand what it said (sorry Rubini... if it means anything to you, your English is 100X better than my German or Spanish). What exactly do the files in there do, and how do you install them.

EDIT: Still not sure what these files do. I know one removes dead bodies and debris... but what about the other one? Something about the draft of the boats?

Thanks guys....

The other one has an animated crewman standing.

Excuse me my lack of support guys...I'm cooking a new project for Sh3...:ping:

Yes, you have 3 main options:
1- one file with less rowboat debris and no dead bodies
2- one file with lifeboat crew with that animated crewman standing like jimbuna said
3- a entire bunch of folders that adjust the draft and sail behaviour of the ships.

:up:

No problem Rubini.... Im enjoying just the "regular" install of RLB. Very good work indeed.

I do notice there are dead bodies with the regular install...but they are like just below the surface of the water so you cant see them unless you go under the water. Is this the way its supposed to be?

VERY VERY COOL!!! The radio operator position will finally be useful for something more than Bernards dirty laundry!!

Bodies should only float if wearing a Life jacket.

When a person drowns, they sink.
It's only when Gases created by the body's decomposition,
does a body float on it's own.

LOL...thanks for the forensic biology lesson :lol:

I think they are wearing life vests (Mae West style..yellow in color)

Some work I was doing on an older version of the mod. I hope to replace the low-detailed human figures with new ones derived from the SH3 dock worker figures.

I can send you a higher detailed model if you'd like to look at it.
It's the model I'll be useing.
New skins would have to be made but that's minor work.
And would give the Graphics guys more details to work with.
:up:

:p can some of you modders do something with the crews hands:hmm:

The newer model I have has better hands.
I did not want all the fingers as that raises the faces count way to high.
But they have a thumb, fore finger and the other 3 are one unit.
kind of like a shooting mitten.
