The gun texture is pretty on the spot though the stock looks a bit short, only aspect that's wrong is the mounting position of the gun w/respect to the tower. Found an image of a conning tower with one attached, "Mid-war addiotions found on many U-boats were up to four MG34's, one of whic can be seen here." This is from a book of mine used as (primary) source material for plastic model painting (hobby of mine) called U-Boats in action(yeah, cheesy name) by squadron/signal publications. Might be able to find it in a model/hobby shop though think it's now out of print.

Since my scanner is out of commission and need to go to a friends tomorrow will bring it along to scan the photo, its of the tower of U-552 out at sea on watch. Main change is that the mounts were recessed which allowed the guns to rest into slots in the tower so that their angle at rest was more like 75 degrees instead of 45 like the prototype image.

Since it wasn't until mid-later in the war that the strict no prisioneer policy was put into place there wouldn't have really been any need for such mounts, unless you were trying to nail a fast moving torpedo boat or something where a 360 degree of fire was needed the flak gun was quite capable of euthanizing a liferaft full of people.

I think that disgusting is a bit of strong a term my friend. Maybe that got lost in the translation.

As promised, here's the photo of U-552 with one of the guns mounted, you can see how they were designed to almost stand upright in order to keep mobility around an already cramped space.

Your mod factory is chuggin' out smoke all day it seems.

Glad to see this mod going strong.

I love the new additions.

I've got the MG 34 nearly done.
Don't ask me how or why it happened but the UV mapping was screwy.
So had to do alot of flipping of the UV's.
Not the faces, the damned UV's!

Finishing the Magazines now.

@Aces,

Here's the MG 34 in S3D.

I'll be putting this gun in a new dat.
I suggest placeing nodes on the Turms to assign this gun through the eqp file in the Submarine folder as it will come with a zon file so it can be destroyed.
Plus you can assign them by date that way if you wish.

BUKER · 08-23-10, 02:09 AM

Aces · 08-23-10, 02:46 AM

Fantastic mate, absolutely fantastic, can't wait to get my grubby mitts on it

Thanks mate,

Aces

Edit:

@Fubar:

Hi mate, this will be solely a Super Turms version and should be installed after the multi-mod compat fix release v1.3.

cheers
