[REL] new ordnance look

castorp345 · 03-07-08, 12:00 PM

here's a new US_shells.dds bitmap to replace the stock one ==> http://rapidshare.com/files/97770130/US_shells.dds.html

i was browsing through my 1940 copy of the bluejacket manual, came across a nice color [!] illustration of the various naval ordnance designation markings, and realized that the stock image(s) is/are pretty inaccurate... so hopefully this will remedy the situation somewhat.

NB that:
- AP has a black projectile body with yellow tip
- HE has a grey (slate) projectile body with yellow and grey (slate) tip
- illuminating "starshells" have a blue projectile body with a white star emblem (

)

make sure to back-up your original in case you want to revert.

also, here's a 20mm version by Nauticalwolf ==> http://files.filefront.com/US+shells.../fileinfo.html

and preview:

cheers
