ah, that's right! I was just looking at a website with russian submarines of WW2 and seeing this conning tower with very soviet look i thought i've seen it somewhere before - but wasn't sure if it was the website or some thread..

Looking forward to it btw. lights looking nice too.

So is this some new mod comming out?? We get an option to become russian submariners attacking german uboots and merchants??

enemy ships have lights i was wondering if subs of all types can have some sort of lights (i.e).to check out enemy targets up at close range

I doubt, i think you just can attack allied shipping as a soviet boat. A renegade?

it's very nice to simply have an alternative boat to use..do we need both downloads--the conning tower and the type 9_bis files? it certainly looks well done!!

it looks suffienciently different from the german stockers to be usable for british italian free french/vichy even Japanese stuff (no slight on the original intentions here ) with a bit of imagination on the part of the player that is..

Green to starboard is fine but red is the light for port. A stern light should be white. International Rules of the Road at Sea.

That sub only needs a small star on the conning tower.

This is the type I think that sunk the Gustloff.

(not C, but S type). C type would be in russian letters.

You should DL only an IX-bis file.
But this beta-version has many problems.

Genius Comrades, Genius!

now this is an awesome looking WW2 boat! those Uboats look decidedl boring compared to soviet boats, already back then they had that cool conning tower seen later on more modern boats.

Thisis an awesome resource btw, as I saw some blueprints scanned from exact same ones as I had when I was a kid! Totally nostalgic seeing those drawings again after so many years! Even more I used to own those magazines, with beautiful drawings and I used read those stories as a kid totally into it. Glad someone got this thing online.

The best object for creation of light is Light_House_flare (dummy-object).
It is necessary to change its Color, Size and OverLife only.
Light can be placed in any place of any object above water.
It is possible to change the size, color, brightness of a luminescence,
a cycle of a luminescence.
It is possible to make blinking light. Light is reflected in water.
Unique lack as well as at all light sources in game:
it is visible through the majority of models having not a specific material.
Moders forward!

I have used that before but decided it is not very suitable because the light shines/can be seen through the solid objects. Therefore, I have settled for a solution like here http://www.subsim.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=49308
