[REL] Free French Submarine Surcouf mod
 

http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/9770/surcouf2.jpg



This is by no means the last version of the mod ;)

I still want to change/improve :

- the periscope view : a view through a WWII french periscope would be tops, one through a later (1950s) would be ok

- I still need to make the turret change texture at the same time (July 1, 1942) as the hull and tower

- I need to change the torpedo picture in the loadout screen : the smaller torp is ok for the v24 but the v26 should be a long thin torpedo

- I need to make a TMO patch for her too

Any and all constructive criticism is welcome, people just venting off are not ;)



this mod would not have been possible without :



the sponsoring of Hautpoul on the forum mille sabords who payed for the Surcouf 3d model on Turbosquid


the unrelenting help of my dear friend Peabody, who selflessly made the twin 8 inch gun and helped me tweak the various versions

Congratulations on the release of this mod Keltos!

After watching this Mod and the Modern Subs page extensively for the last few weeks it's made me wish I didn't buy a Mac for school :(

Anyways, hopefully I can find a cheap CPU to run Sh4 which is still alive and kicking with these great Mods!

you can always install a second os on a mac :yep: reverse is not true on a pc !

virtua PC or something like that, I got both a mac and a pc at home

I can always run a second OS, the problem is getting said OS. On a student budget, paying 200+ for Windows 7 is quite pricey.

sure is.. I use win XP

Hmm.. maybe I can get one as an X-mas gift :hmmm:

She's alive! :rock:

Big congratulations!

No, that would certainly be very hard to imagine... :shifty: http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z...es/biggrin.gif

Oh yes! Please do! :up:


Why not? I happens to have some floating around... PM me if you want one.

Perhaps I'll send you a PM, I'm able to find time to game again, I may have to hold off :D

Wow, what beast this boat is! :rock:

Like how you did the dive planes. I took her out on a couple of long patrols and had no problems with her at all. She seems to be working just fine so far.

The pleasure is mine as well sir, working with a shipwright as gifted and visionary as yourself is truly a pleasure to warm the heart of any seafarer. Call on me for trials any time.:salute:

What a monster sub. It's ugly/beautiful/awesome, like the German Gotha bombers of WWI. In real life, just about as successful (not!), but that sub has more character than a fleet of U-Boats and US submarines combined. Take a bow Keltos, it's a masterpiece!:D
