KILL FLAGS FAQS:
1) The game assigns you a boat (or you assign yourself one by making changes to some game files)


If you have any more questions, just keep asking 'till we get it answered.

Thanks DT!

================================================== ===========

The following Hi-Res FooSkin Templates are ready in the 'Download a Boat' section:
Fleet Roster List:


Here's how it works:

1. Select a Boat Class from http://battleflags.us 'Download a Boat'
2. Modify the tower file (T01.dds or T02) you are using and create a .zip
3. Left-click or right-click on your update and save to a temp folder.
4. Extract and copy & paste into your SH4\MODS folder.
5. Run JSGME. This will overwrite just the new dds files (Conning Tower Kill Flags files), but keep the original skin you installed as this will save on download sizes.
6. Run SH4
7. ENJOY YOUR HARD EARNED KILLS!

---------------------------------------------
[New Boat Installation 'Destructions']

2. Choose your boat and Right click on the zip file
3. Extract to a temp location
4. Copy and Paste into your SH4\Mods Folder
5. Drag over via JSGME
*note: you can only use one 'Kill Flags' boat class at a time via JSGME -otherwise the texture will overwrite

Additional MOD Instructions:

================================================== ================

Q: Since this is a graphics-based mod I shouldn't have to be in port before applying changes, correct?

A: Yes, it's just a texture mod, easy on/off via JSGME...now having said that...no Promises and use at own risk if installing out of Port and/or during a Patrol, starting a career, on Leap Year, under a full moon, etc.

Permissions:
- No images, materials, absolutely nothing, within The Kill Flags Mod may be used for any commercial product of any size, shape or form.

- The Kill Flags Mod is freeware, made by the SH4 modding community. All permissions of individual mods are subject to their author's permissions.

Cheers,


Many thanks to Captain Cox and FooFighters for their great skins!

And if you have been living on the Moon for several years, you need to see Captain Cox's MODs:

************************************************** ************
************************************************** ***********
Q: WHAT DO ALL THOSE SYMBOLS MEAN ANYWAYS?
A: Good question, you came to the right place Mate

* Capital ships were also marked over the IJN flag eg: BB, CV, CVE
From what we have researched, the Battle Flags themselves we're all homemade and not to any real template:
( We would love to hear more from a RL expert/boat veteran )

Default SCOPE SPOTTED 090º 10 Yards!!!

Ahoy Capn's!!!

Some poacher has the BattleFlags.net site held hostage in DryDock.

So I have re-upped the site with ALL the original files on Battleflags.US

Enjoy!
