[REL]b25_ Hi-Res Conning Tower 4096

[brett25]

UPDATED: 03/21/10-Now includes moldy food-when you activate the mid or late patrol modules, your food will get nice and moldy, yummy!

UPDATE: 03/12/10 New Arctic Campaign Module

thanks and credit goes to Irish1958 for his excellent idea in suggesting this arctic version! Please note the arctic module contains an additional file to provide snow cover for the decks


This version will work with the Type VII C boats, download link below


Due to the enormous size of the full mod (768mb) I have decided to upload only the NSS_Uboat7c_coning.tga for each of the 3 patrol stages. This mod is compatible with any skin you are presently using and only the NSS_Uboat7c_coning.tga will be replace. There wont be the weathering on the tread plates, UZO, and Flak gun anymore, unfortunately


This mod will replace your conning tower textures with very hi resolution textures (4096 pixels). I figure we spend a lot of time on the deck, might as well put some work into it. This mod consists of 3 modules which you can enable depending on how long you've been at sea .

Just leaving port in your squeaky clean boat (activate Early module):








A week at sea and your crew has better things to do than swap the deck (activate (Mid module)











Your still alive and its been 2 months at sea? If your boat looks like this just imagine how your crew looks (and smells) (activate late module)







On the type VIIC:





New Arctic Campaign Module:

Heading North?








For when your really up there (module Arctic ICE LATE):








Moldy Food

Been a wile at sea? Yummy!











New Version v3 (includes moldy food):

Now that looks damn good, im curious if its compatible with my lil lightmaps mod, i think some shadows would be a great addition... who`d have thought 5 years ago sh3 would end up looking this good

[irish1958]

SH3CMDR can activate the mods for you at the appropriate time.
This mod looks very good; will you release the changes for the other boats?

No doubt FM!

thanks all for your good words. We should run a campaign called "welcome back to sh3" for our friends that strayed......

Flakmonkey, I was thinking this all along. I plan on testing this today. I think this has a potential to look really good. I would adjust the textures if needed to work well with your lightmaps, so they work together well

thanks seawolf, I will update my posts

SH3CMDR can activate the mods

Irish, this is brilliant, will look into it because then the possibilities for textures changing over time would be wide open!

DL'ing now but any chance of a version for a Type IX anytime soon?

yukonjack,


thats a good suggestion, if there is a demand I can make versions for type 2 and 9 since most of the hard work is done in my .psd files

Hello Irish !

Can you please explain how this works? In which SH3-Commander folder I must put the files ?

Thanks in forward,
Magic

[brett25]

Magic1111,
There are probably several ways to do it. The one I use is cumberson as I don't really understand how to use the config files of SH3CMDR.
The first thing to do is install JSGME in the CMDR folder. Then you make the files in the way you want, and install them into the CMDR mod file.
The file you introduce into the file structure of SH3CMDR is the date folder.
You select the date you want the files installed into SH3 and set the file structure for the SH3 data folder which you include in the CMDR date folder.
I have a mod called "War Radio" which uses this file structure. The best way to understand how this works is to download the mod and study it.

I am currently testing another major mod, and I don't have the time to make the files for doing this; perhaps I might in a while when the high resolution mod is finished, and release it as an addon.

[rik007]

Very nice. The second one is my taste. Gonna try it right away! Thanks!

Hi,

Fantastic mod thank you, I tried the first version and it was fine but the new download has CRC errors, I tried from both download links.

Best regards
