[WIP] Playable Type II for SH5 by silentmichal
 

silentmichal and I are currently working on a mod to make the Type II uboat playable in Silent Hunter 5. I'm working on the CFG files and localization, while silentmichal is working on the interior and crew stations.

From what I can tell, this mod will result in at least one of the playable submarines being replaced by the Type II, so use JSGME to install.

More news coming soon.

Also, any help on this would be appreciated.

My work on this has started!

I wish you good luck, guys :up:

hello and :yeah:

can you post some pictures soon?

PM me guys on what can I help you with. My time restraints are great during the week, but its still too interesting to do, so I make some time (working on smth myself right now, almost done tho).

Good luck

There are a lot of VII boats so it´s nice replace one or two of them to make a II type and a IX in the future :D

We haven't even got to the point where we have pics to show!

I can't lie to you about your chances, but … you have my sympathies.

:salute:

Hiya! I've done short-work on a full interior for type II in SH3!

I recently tried to get a granny editor to work on my rig (to no avail) so I can't help you with that part, but if you're handy with painting and shading, I've got most of a type II posted here and on bit.ly. Feel free to use what you can, I'm still trying to get through this semester, but I can point you to sites I used for references.

Thinking on, I gotta check my own threads!

PM me if you need something specific, and I'll try to remember to check in here later!

A mod for a type II in SH5? say word.

Wonderful, now we have submarines both playable and Ai in the making, this is just getting better and better!:D

Actually, I gave up on this ages ago. It seems that we'll have to screw around with the actual engine before we can have new playable subs.

I was on the SHIII mods page and came across the U-BOOT HAHD mod by Schwieger. There he has a beautifully done Type II boat modeled with great attention to detail. Not sure if asking to use his model would be appropriate for this project. Just a suggestion, it really is well done, here is the link to the thread http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...79694&page=215

Check out the videos and see what else they have done to SHIII in the HAHD mod, made me want to install SHIII again just to see it.
