Questions on Xiskio's u-boot skin mod- German speakers help!
 

Over at the Silent Hunter III German website. In the mod forums, there's a post by Xiskio with new u-boot skins.
Here: http://forums-de.ubi.com/groupee/for...2/m/6151091204
There's a part 1 and part 2 to download. What's the difference between them? Do I need both? They look like the same skin files. Also...can someone tell Xiskio that in the part two download, the NSSUboat9b.tga is blank. Can I copy the NSSUboat9b.tga from part 1 and put it in the part 2 to replace the blank one? Don't know why there's a part 1 and 2 if they are the same. :-?

I seems his download skin links are unuseable for now.

You sure? Just went to the site and looks like they are good-to-go.

Mast

yup downloaded both here

you gotta wait for the countdown timer at the bottom of the download page for each

Mmm...was hoping someone from Germany could help me here. Made a small edit to post.

Mast

Why?

Anyways, good luck finding a German here, this is an English forum :|\ :P

@Mast

You have to Download both files Part1 and Part 2

To Install simply use the Generic Mod Enabler (JSGME)

Hope that help´s

The RAR file the first set comes in appears to be dependant on the second part, so don't start installation until you have got both sets saved somewhere.

What Fangschuss said! :yep:

I knew my fellow sub mates from over the ocean would step up. :up:
Ok...done. Thanks Fangschuss!
I'm still a little concerned about the blank NSSUboat9b.tga file but will try it anyway.

Mast

No problem Buddy :up:

Ok...another question. Right now, I have in my mods folder a part 1 and part 2 folder of Xiskio's sub skins. Haven't tried it yet because I'm in the middle of a patrol. Was I suppose to put the part 2 inside the part 1 folder? I translated the readme and I'm still not clear on where exactly part 2 goes (separate folder or inside part 1). Guess I'll just experiment.

P.S.- Had dinner at a very good German restaurant last night. Love their weiner schnichel (sp) along with my Paulaner Octoberfest . They play the old music there and for some reason I thought of this game... :rotfl: I envisioned myself in my U-boot commander's uniform. My girlfriend gave me a weird look. After dinner, we went to the INXS concert. What a great show!

I saved the two files to destop, then, using WinRAR, I extracted the rirst one. The extraction automatically continues through the second part. One large folder is created, about 350 mb.

I'm 99% sure that skin mods not need to be installed when at a base.

Hehe, that skins looks good!
