[REL] what color is your torpedo?
i got to wondering about historic torpedo appearance and found many images of the various USN types, but none from the WWII time period showed the sort of coloration that is currently used in the game's torpedo information display (or did someone mod the torps to those colors? 'can't remember what stock looked like... also, i'd except from this the Mk. 16). so i decided to redo the US_torpedoes512 bitmap to more accruately [?] reflect what seems to have been the actual 'coloration' of the torpedos in use for this era. i left the Mk. 16 alone in the original bmp i have on my hd (whether it's someone else's mod work or stock), but adjusted all the others. there was certainly some conjecture in the scheme i've opted for, so if anyone has better information then i'm all ears!
additionaly, this is the dds from 1.4, so if you're running 1.5 (which i'm not yet) then you'll have to cut&paste these into the expanded 1.5 file. d/l link ==> http://rapidshare.com/files/98190719...es512.dds.html and preview ==> http://home.comcast.net/%7Edpolan/US_torpedoes512.jpg as always, make sure to backup your original. cheers, hc |
is that dinky one used in game??

Im grabbing it, thanks, looks sweet.
You got 1.5 ? I know dem textures for torps in 1.4 that you see in water are Torpedo14.dds and Torpedo14_01.dds for MK14 etc in "tex" folders but does anyone have idea what file(s) the german torps use in 1.5? This is what the german looks like: http://www.imagehosting.com/out.php/...orpinwater.JPG and I'd like to skin that pig fo to something like: http://www.imagehosting.com/out.php/...orpinwater.JPG or this: http://www.imagehosting.com/out.php/...orpinwater.JPG or maybe like this: http://www.imagehosting.com/out.php/...orpinwater.JPG and that blueish: http://www.imagehosting.com/out.php/...orpinwater.JPG Did some heavy colors tho, but was just testing stuff... I think Ducimus did some nice touches in TMO for torp colors. And those files shoulda work in 1.4 just allrite. :arrgh!: |

Yeah...and then you want them, just like I do.http://www.61shap.com/pilots/Paajtor/Drool.gif
I loved the Zaunkönigs, in SH3. Did you ever follow such a fish on cam, along it's searching path? When target comes closer, you can see it jinking from L to R, constantly adjusting course. If it misses, and zipps past the stern, it makes a fast narrow turn, and comes in from the other side!:o....and it won't miss, this time. |
I admit confusion...How do I install this mod (or the new ordnance mod) in 1.4?
I can't find the files to be replaced. |
Sort of a personal question, isn't it?
|
....um?
I have default install path and all... I don't know how to install the mods, is all. |

hey Penta in your SH4 install folder, just drop my replacement bitmap into data/menu/gui/layout make sure to backup you original file, just in case! alternatively, you could install the RFB package as it uses this mod. cheers hc |
