[REQ] TYPII camo paint scheme references

Hans Witteman · 02-03-11, 10:03 PM

Hi shipmates,

I have only 2 pictures of those camo paint scheme and they are pretty bad

Anybody here have good pic of them possibly both side could be from Black sea theater of operation??

I would love both side because my boot have a custom UVW template that allow me to texture both side differently.

Looking forward for your answer thank to everyone who help i will not forget you in the credits

Best regards Hans

Hi Hans,

There are many photos of type II, but unfortunately I have never seen color.
Here are just such pictures might come in handy ...
I hope I have correctly understood your request?

Hi Hans,

Sorry I'm not an expert on German submarines!
I served in the modern strategic nuclear submarines, that's about it I could tell you about.

In the meantime, here are two photos in color.
That's all that I found ...

Hi mate,

Yes i know this skin i already have play it in GWX superb works but again since the custom UVW template i did for my tYPIIA allow me to paint both side differently because i suspect the camo paint to be different from one side to the other.

Just hope i can find a reference if not will do a repetion of the pattern on both side

Best regards Hans

Several years ago a player calling himself 'Sean' did a skin for the AI Type IIb, which I love so much I converted it for the Player IIa. I don't think it's historical at all, but I like it so much I have to use it.

Hi mate,

I agree with you even if not historic it is still a good looking skin

I wish i could go back in 1939 with a camera and come back

Best regards Hans

Hi Hans just wondering if you can apply custom UVM template to all models? Would be great to get 2 sided dazzel textures for warships

.

Thats great hans

. Might look into texturing for Ships for SH3. Had attempted to do a reskin mod for SH5, but ended it due to the use of its GR2 file system. Would not allow random skins or full length hull texturing

.
Looking to do some high resolution skins if possible for sh3 poss 1024*1024 if it supports that size 512*512 if not.
Will do them for the stock ones first to get my feet wet

.

Is it easy enough to get the custom template working, I could do that for the ship models to save you time if you want. Pm me if ok

.
Cheers mate.
