Default Ships silhouettes for NYGM?

Hi, this days using s3ditor and paint.net, i made for myself new ships_sil.tga.
My installation is NYGM3_6C + IABLShipsforNYGM_New2 + TMT mod (NYGM version).
This ship silhouettes are from this installation, and contain all merchant ships, but not military, and they are black. Look like this:






I will give this to people, if someone need them. But, have a question: i need to know to whom is this file: Base_sil_tga_files.rar
This are blank sil background files.

Simply, don't remember from where i take this file. Probably from Plissken server but whose folder, would be too exhausting to search them all.

And, are i need permission for them?

I've been looking for an easy way to add the merchant ships of NYGM+IABL+TMT as pulldown charts. These silhouettes look like something I could work on So I'm very interested in downloading these.

Tycho was kind enough to send the pics to me: you can download them from here:

http://www.2shared.com/fadmin/537893...ouetes.7z.html

I have modded most of the pics into my Charts Addon as a Beta version. If you want the tga's you can dl the beta version from here:

Unfortunately we don't know who made the .sils originally so we can't give proper credit to him/her.

The trouble is there's that many ships to scroll through in the rec manual now, it's a pain. The rec manual needs replacing by a better system.
I've been pondering how to do it. Been looking into how the torpedo selection works and there might be a way to use those commands in making a new rec manual. Searching would be easier if we could split up the ships into classes, like Tanker, 2 Funnel etc. Then put 6 sils per page. Would mean having new sils for each ship and I don't know what this will entail in memory usage.

Your idea is a nice one and it could be done. Here is what it could look like:



It would take a lot menu_1072_768.ini editing and some thinking on how to make a version that would work with the most popular GUI's and add-on ship packs like MFM and WB's ship pack.

Tycho, could you upload your mod containing new recon manual silhuettes? It looks good and, the most important, it's full pack of ships from MFM and TMT with stock GWX. Did you try to do it with all warships?

If you want, I'll show you how i do mine, and you will make it yourself for your installation? Well, it will be difficult, because english is not my force, and this night i am too tired, but maybe tomorrow!

I tried, but S3ditor displayed the ships without gun turrets.
