Based on GWX Development Team's M1935 class minesweeper (original author was Sergbuto, on a model by Greg Law), 3d updated using SHV model and parts and a lot of details (portholes, stairs, cables, lifeboats, glass windows\interiors, turning radars\rangefinders and torpedo launchers...).

Another beautiful ship! Excellent!

Once again great work Vd. I do have one question that I'm sure someone ITT will be familiar with. How does one specify which skin is used, when placing these boats in the mission editor? They all look great but some would clearly make more sense in the Fjords of Norway than in Biscay. On the K class and L class cruisers, which skin was used seemed to be tied to version year, but looking through the files I don't think it works the same for these vessels.

Thank you mate!
If someone can reply to this, he'll be welcome :salute:

Best regards,
Vd

In SH4, you can control the texture used by date.
Don't think SH3 can handle that if I recall correctly?
:hmmm:

The first (and only) way in my mind is, using an external program, via SH3 Commander, with all the textures named T01, and every file overwriting the previous by date...

Best regards,
Vd

SH3 commander probably would be the most straightforward approach, at least if we aren't doing a transit patrol from one theater to another, thanks. That being said, I do think the date seems to play some role. With the K-class, if I spawn one in that exists from the unit's DOB to its DOD, it will always use Königsberg's skin. But if I spawn one in with a "unit version date" later than the date-of-death for Königsberg and Karlsruhe, it will correctly use Köln's skin.

I suppose that may not be relevant for the M1935 as there are a lot more than just three vessels.
