Default NEW TYPE 2 SKINS

Hi all
This type 2a skin is based on U3.
I have used anumber of refernces for this skin, books pics uboat.net ect,
I took a colour sample (Hellgrau 50) from a site at uboat.net.
Hellgrau 50 was another common colour used on uboats,
heres 2 pics of the type 2a


again this type 2D skin also has Hellgrau 50 as the main colour
heres a few pics


these skins should soon be up at http://U-Boot.RealSimulation.com

Awesome!

Do we need to install Seg.'s reflections fix for these or do they already come with it?

Thx for the skins, Fubar!

Now does anyone know what file contains the texture for the red and white hatch? For such a beautifully painted u-boat, the hatch makes it look dumb...

Marhkimov, I believe that it isn't a hatch... but an emergency location device/ buoy sir.

Oh, whoops, my bad...


Was it also red/white in real life?

And in either case, that 'thing' sure does make the sub look stupid...

Yes sir. It needed to be highly visible... visual S.O.S. for downed sub.

I wondered the same thing when I first saw one. They are still used on modern subs in one form or another.
