SHIV Balao Hi-Res RED FIN and REDFIN SHARK MOUTH ONLY weathered Submarine by FooFighters and Boris. Graphics by CAPTAIN COX

Did this as per request, all creds to FooFighters and Boris
as I had done the "LO-RES" RED FIN before this was more of a porting job.

Thanks for downloading our Balao RED FIN weathered skin.
if there are any problems please let me know.

Install ready for JSGME
or manual Installation
put the NSS_BalaoT01.DDS files in the submarine/Balao directory
The NSS_BalaoTowerT01.DDS files goes in the Data/Textures/Tnormal/Tex

Have fun..

As you can see the Bow-Planes are RED!, keep on reading and you will see why.


Tuned the hull color to a lighter gray and less weathering.





Lighter Gray and less weathering




As for the Bow-Planes....check this out!


Not bad hey! but hang on...check this :p



:( weird hu!...Don't know why, but the skin don't map mirrored, no idea as how to fix that!. So I did a compromise with the Red Bow-Planes,
I know its not 100% but believe me if i could I would have done it proper, hope that's OK.


This is a graphic skin mod for the GATO Class Submarine in SH4
Its based on photos of the SS-272 Redfin.

For reference see:
http://www.navsource.org/archives/08/08272.htm

This Mod contains 2 skins, one for the earlier version of the Gato 1942.
And one for the later version 1943-45


Install:
Simply use with JSGME

I like, great job.. need more skins from u talented skinners!

Sailor Steve 03-25-07 04:59 PM

Looks great! Though I see what you mean about the bow planes: "Redfin" indeed!:rock:

CaptainCox 03-25-07 05:05 PM

Yup :( I will look in the morn...time for bed here. But what beats me is that they used such a big area for the emblems and stuff...tha Japs must have been able to see that from miles!, but again all boats had to remove this stuff by end of 44-45.

Banquet 03-25-07 05:15 PM

Amazing! Those pics look like photos.. Brilliant art work you've done there! :)

Fercyful 03-25-07 06:18 PM

Hot damn, this looks evil! :) When I pick up SH4 this afternoon, this'll probably be one of the first things I'll download and use.

CaptainCox 03-26-07 09:44 AM

Updated the first post with the final release with 2 GATO " Redfin" skins. Enjoy!

OneTinSoldier 03-26-07 10:08 AM

Looks pretty hot CaptainCox, downloading! :up:

CaptainCox 03-26-07 10:12 AM

Just fixed something. Please Dl again in a min.

EDIT: OK fixed and uploaded! Not much but I thought the belly of the 42 version looked to light so I made it a bit darker.

FIREWALL 03-26-07 01:17 PM

Thx for another great mod,:up: Keep em cumin.:rock:

9th_cow 03-26-07 03:28 PM

damn thats cool.
if i can figure out how to get it running ill be forced to enable externals :)

9th_cow 03-26-07 03:31 PM

erm ok sorry to be the fool who has to ask.
i havent played SHIII for ages and im sure i didnt use this.

ok so i extract the rar to the mods folder then "activate it"
is it even looking in the right folder ? its not like it asked me where SHIV is
and can i switch the mod enabler of now or do i need to keep it running ?

:oops: i havent a clue :)

CaptainCox 03-26-07 03:53 PM

Best is to run the JGSME (install).exe from INSIDE the SH4 main folder. It should create a folder called "MODS"

(in my case it does not, maybe because of VISTA, had to create a folder manually and name it "MODS")

Then you simply dump what ever mod you want in that folder

( I will say this cause some ppl have not done this right...UNRAR!!! the mod 1st on the desktop or whatever)

Double check by clicking the Main Mod Folder in the mod and see if the next folder is called "DATA" then its OK, drag the Main Mod Folder to the "MODS" folder inside SH4 and activte with the JSGME.exe.

The rest is pretty self explanatory.
