ok , i got it now!
when the draught=0 at .sims then all you have to do is to measure the mast height with a node attached to hull and no need to measure the keel (i couldn't get it becuase i was using a node attached to the mast).
for the other ships ....just a thought for you Lurker .when we see at a ship ,for example, draught=9 does the sh4's engine is putting the hull of ship 9m into water or the box of ship ?

As far as your "moving" ship test, your basically using an old surveyor's trick of moving the "level rod" back and forth as he looks through the "level", When the level rod reaches its lowest point that will be the "height" above the ground.

you don't understant my method and certainly has nothing to do with what you described but thats ok,no need to discuss it further(i didn't post it as a better method but.... just for sharing)
if the mast values you are getting via s3d are acurrate then everything is ok (and for sure you are saving a lot of time),it was about time to be made some fixes to ship's dimensions for sh4
the irony is that all these good things for sh4 (and was exactly some of the things that kept me away from sh4-ubm) are happening one day before sh5
ubi must understant one day that the priority is the gameplay and not only the graphics
anyway, i would for sure use this mod (i have allready said that this is the best mod ever made for sh4) when and if ever play the sh4
