Now thats a great idea :hmm:

For some reason all my officers are wearing the Ensign 'butterbars'...

Awesome mod regardless...are you planning on putting in Petty Officer collar insignia?

[IRONxMortlock]

I guess I'm retarded but I'm damned if I can get the hat and ranks working at the same time.

The file I downloded has two folders. Ranks with hat and ranks alone. If I enable hat with ranks I only get the hat. If I then go and try to enable the ranks alone mod it tells me there's conflict with the ranks and hat mod.

Perhaps I don't have the right file?

I don't know if it's possible, but I hope that CC will try to remove the hats.

[CaptainCox]

Wow, hard one. I think its not possible as its sort a random. There is no specified head to a specified hat in the script. It looks like this

CrewMemberBodyPart1= Normal, Headgear, sapca_o#Head, 1, NULL

As you see the # only indicates "any number" so to have to hats off down below is a bit of a hard one to crack I think.

That is weird indeed. You should have
Only these installed
HAT STANDALONE+INSIGNIA,RANKS (ONLY)
http://files.filefront.com/US_OFFICER_HAT_MOD_10rar/;7632419;/fileinfo.html
http://files.filefront.com/LOWER_OFFICER_RANK_13rar/;7521411;/fileinfo.html
or
HAT/RANKS (ONLY)
http://files.filefront.com/HAT_RANK_.../fileinfo.html
or
HAT/RANKS/SWEAT (ONLY)
http://files.filefront.com/SWEATY_CREWrar/;7666287;/fileinfo.html

Don't mix these or you will have conflicts.

Sweaty crew, missed that one, I'll have to give it a try!

So I download the sweaty crew mod. I'm hoping to have the hat, rank insignia, and sweaty crew. Inside the archive I have two separate mods. I have a folder called "SWEATY CREW" and a folder called "SWEATY LOWER OFFICER RANKS INSIGNIA v1.2". So that I get all the goodness of sweat, hat and ranks, which of these do I install?

Thank you,

M

cheers

However once again they have hats but no rank insignia. I've disabled all other rank/hat mods etc and just enabled this one. I can't tell if they are sweating or not.

[CaptainCox]

May I ask, do you run the game with hi-res off?
If you do, then yes there could be a problem as these mods only use the TNormal textures, not the Lo-res ones. See this post, I think its the same problem

Ah yes, this could be the problem. I'll give it a try with high res textures.

Thanks, M

I've redownloaded the mod folder (hats+insignia) and my Lieutenants and Lieutenant (J.G.)'s are wearing their nice hats, but still have the Ensign golden bar insignia on all of their collars.

I'm running the game with the graphic settings maxed out, and in some cases driver override on the AA and AntiS filters.

[Fearless]

I'm having no luck whatever I do with graphics setting. What resolution should the game be running at for the changes to show up?

[vindex]

I just noticed that when I look at the sub from outside, the tiny officer figure is wearing the new hat! I didn't know they were driven off the same 3D models as the internal/bridge close-up views. Cool!

My grattude goes out to CC and all the other modders in this forum, whoever you may be. You have taught me a few things and made SH4 at least half-way playble for me.
