You' re welcome, I seen it a while back, everybody is struggle-ing to do interiors why not try this. I'm ok with static interiors it would be better than nothing,,and would add something to the game and wouldn't be a drag on the pc..,, you are the captain you don't load torpedoes or turn wrenches on the engines,,,your job is to keep your men sharp and do the mission and get the boat home afterwards..

What a fantastic site. I highly recommend everyone bookmark this, and take the virtual tour; but clear some time....there is a lot to absorb here.

Speaking of Balao class interiors, how do you pronounce "Balao"?

dictionary.com (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/balao) says it's

buh-lou (emphasis on 1st syllable)

but I had always heard

bu-lahw

It's from Spanish, so the ao is a diphthong (pronounced together.)

Does the skin drop into SH4? It looks really sharp.

Yes, it's from Spanish, just like Gato. The men who sailed on her, however, pronounced it as Sledgehammer427 described, just as the other boat's crew pronounced it "Gay-toh".

Wow! It must have been really cool to have talked with all the guys from the Balao and Gato personally!

Thanks for the pronunciations, I really appreciate it.
Furthermore, my TMO has never looked better!
