[WIP] Complete RL Emblem Pack

TarJak · 08-18-07, 02:06 AM

As mentioned elsewhere on these threads CapZap1970 and I have commenced work on the complete Real Life U-boat Emblem Pack.

The plan is to create high res emblems matching all the real life U-boat emblems we can identify. Where a boat carried more than one emblem we plan to create the main emblem that was carried for that year. e.g. a file U20 1940-41.TGA will be the emblem that we can identify as being carried for the bulk of that period. Where more than one emblem was carried in a year we will do what we can to accommodate as many of these as possible.

Where more than one emblem was carried at the same time, (Some subs carried one emblem on starboard and another on port side of tower), we will do both emblems in separate files but obviously only one can be chosen by the player at a time.

We are not planning to make any modifications to the tower configurations so emblem size and position on all towers will remain as per stock. The emblem files however will be created in high res and the result will be scaled to provide a very good quality image without making them ridiculously large files to load, so the quality will be as good as we can make them.

There are several hundred emblems to create so this will be a labour intensive and quite lengthy piece of work so we will use this thread to give updates on progress.

We will advise release when we are ready and not before.

In the mean time Gute Jagd!
