bobnice · 03-15-10, 02:30 PM

I just bought the gold edition from steam and i guess im supposed to have new skins for my sub shown here http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/news/53...tion-Announced only this is I cant figure out how to use them, I went to the guy who sells upgrades for my sub inside where im docked. ive only completed the training and the second mission after that though, maybe i need to complete more of the game to get them.

I think they show up on the AI only.

They aren't "skins", Ubisoft was silly when they called them that.

It's just 3 AI subs and 4 AI ships you might run across. You can't paint your sub with them.

You probably overlooked this line:

I think those skins are in the game even on the normal version, just not used. I checked some of the conning tower skins in the textures/tnormal/tex folder and some surely looked the same as those renders.

EDIT: Found the U552 conning tower skin too, not sure tho if that is one of the "historical U-boats" in the gold edition.

I tried assigning U-99 to a player sub and my game crashed to desktop. :/
