S7: 36knots - 37 with MB501 upgrade (MB511 is only for late war boats with the armored bridge)

S14: same speed, I leave it that way because the MAN engine boats did about 35/36. In game the model is identical to the S7 but with 2 extra torpedoes so the same speed sounds about ok.

S26: 39.5 knots - 40 with MB501 upgrade

S38: 41.5 knots, it has the MB501 from the get go and no upgrade available

S38b: 39.5 knots, 41 with the late war MB511 engines (available Nov 1944)

S100: 42 knots, 43 with MB511

S700: 43 knots, 44 knots with MB511

Hopefully the last problems with some boats are sorted out, I just sent the files to Marko, we'll see.

A few more info:

-there's indeed no exhaust smoke as they were underwater though I'm not sure if it's true for the S7/S14 class boats.

-the smoke screen is back but it's only eye candy, no effect on AI

-emblems are back too, finally. 1 big on the stern and 1 medium on each side of the boat, + 1 small on two panels for the boats with the armored bridge (same emblem for both panels but not mirrored so you can used letters). I haven't created any though so you'll have to make your own from the template. Oh and the side emblems won't work so well with the tiger stripe texture of the S38 since it has an embedded emblem. Still looking for someone talented to do some nice camo patterns for these boats

-new 20mm guns created by Testpilot: http://forums-de.ubi.com/eve/forums/...2/m/5311060627
Now sound just perfect...How about remodelling the 3.7 single shot flak as a Bofors 40mm? A lot of S-38 boats mounted it...but I don't know if player-operated guns could be remodeled so radically
