Replacing the 'U Boat Add On' startup screen

peewee · 03-26-10, 04:42 PM

I have the Uboat add on installed because of the update also contained in it but I actually only play the US pacific campaign. I seem to recall a mod to revert the startup screen to an American sub but have so far been unable to locate it in the download section, can anyone point me in the right direction?

peewee; Either RFB or TMO replace the screen, links to the D/L's are in the Sticky up top. If you use RSRD along with either mod make sure you get the right version.

I ment the sticky up top in the Fleet Boat Workshop.

thank you sir. I'm currenty only running RSRD but that was from my old computer, I have better one now so may try one of those two mods

Or make your own little mini mod. This is a change I made to my SH4.
I saved the 1.0 - 1.4 Data files and had them at one time, so I took those two older style SH4 graphics from one of them and substituted them into 1.5 to:

\Data\Menu\Loading\

Intro_logo_bkg.dds
Intro_logo_elem.dds

If you didn't want the whole TMO maybe those 2 older style graphics are in there and you could just 'borrow' them? I ain't sailing no U-boat so why see one on the splash screen? ..... LMAO.

Happy Hunting!

I was wondering if there is a way to get a "bigger" interface, My computer can easily handle higher resolution, but all the controls are so small.

Edit: Never mind. I've become used to the smaller interface

I think the mod you are looking for was called "CaptainCox' Silent Service Graphics Mod 1.2b". It's still in the Downloads under Game Play a couple pages in

Was that intended for me or Peewee? Either way I can't find that mod in downloads.

That was for Peewee! The start up screen question.

Sorry I haven't responded sooner; No excuse just getting senile I expect...

The location in Downloads is under Game Play Mods, page 3. Look for Silent Service Graphics Mod 1.2b.
