Show me some skin, baby!

Hi everyone,

I've had this game since it came out, and thanks to all the wonderful mods, I have just started exploring the external camera. I have always been avoiding it for "realism" sake.

So, I was wondering, could some players comment on particular skins that they like and why?

Screenshots are appreciated as well.

Thanx in advance.

Hi !

Sometimes screenshots are included in the ReadMe of each Skin !

For Sub-Skins please note my MediaFire Page (click on my Sig), I´ve sorted by Sub-Type (Silent Hunter III MODs > go to Page 2 > Folder "U-Boot-Skins" and look at the > Subfolder sorted by Type) !

Best regards,
Magic

Not sure what Magic1111 has but you'll find everything from Fubar plus a few others on my FF page (link above my sig).

I like Wolfehunters skins. A really nice mix of artistry and realism!

Uiiii , I don´t like the skin, looks like the sub has Measles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measles)....

But everything is a matter of taste !

Best regards,
Magic

NO!...WAIT!!

I've dropped a clanger. The link I have sent you is Schaffer4's iced skin but you will need to put the data folder into another folder named 'Schaffer4's Iced TypeVII' before enabling it with JSGME.

I was playing around with some modding ideas when I broke up the file structure for reasons I don't recall now.

The picture in my previous post is of Fubars Type VIIC Winter link below:

http://www.gamefront.com/files/20542...INTER+skin.rar

Basically, Schaffers skin is that of Fubars with additional ice added.

Apologies for the confusion.
