Spain (flag needed)

Bubblehead1980 · 12-17-21, 02:40 AM

Adding Spain as a neutral nation, with some units that may be hostile towards player sub, as part of the SubRon 50 mod in the TMO Update. Need a flag for the vessels, have not found one in other mods.

GWX 3 has a couple

Ahoy...

Did some... poking about, into SH3, with 1Alex's, Anvart1061's & Toyo's GWX sets... as well as 4's We dive at Dawn, (which is based off of hmmmm...

stock/original Op. Monsun, original TMO..???

know is 1 of those... at any rate.

) Subron 50 (original release version, by lurker... which is side based off of Op. Monsun (original) mod...

) then both of the Uboat 4 mod sets... (KSD II: Ace edition & OM: DW's v6)

in conclusion, noted that all of these, have in data\roster folder, Spain listed in them. What I did NOT see, was any references in a .cfg for any warships... what was there, was just merchie traffic.

Sooo... IF, I am NOT mistaken... I believe during that time frame, that we know of... as WW2... Spain's flag, was just 1. No delineation between their warships or their merchie fleet... & IF I am correct... then grabbing just the flag from there (from any 1 of those sources (though if from 3, would think that a bit of rework may be required to have it useable in 4... by the way

but would be far simpler, to do a snatch & grab from a 4 source, instead...

), should suffice to serve as the base for flag.dat for any ship that is of "spanish" lineage... be it warship or merchie blooded...

Hope this info helps...

Thanks for that info, Jeff... as it is... I don't "have" just the regular GWX3 set installed... Soo... wasn't able to dip into it & check it, just those that were reworked by 1Alex, Anvart1061 & Toyo... oh yah... sorry... Toyota86's... mod set work... & almost forgot... LSH3-2020... which I didn't check that but figure it.... too, likely has "Spain" in the data\roster as well.

Appreciate that bit of info.

Warmest regards,

M. M.

Oh, & just only checked the data\Roster owing to NOT knowing what Spain's warships might have been named back then...

something to add to My "brush up on WW2 history" list...

Have narrowed it down to 1 SH4 mod set... that has both Spanish flags in them... civvie & Military... no need to do any rework to get them to work in SH4...

that mod set is... KSD II : Ace edition... & likely in the original that : Ace, is based from.

flags are located in the data\Texture\Tnormal\tex folders therein...

And the Flags are DIRECTLY from GWX!

Why try to beat around the Burning bush when there is not a thing from GWX I can't track down?
flag2.dat is a direct steal from GWX! They didn't even change ID numbers!

Yeah... GWX, has them, since 1Alex's work (as is Anvart1061's GWR is & Toyo's Enhanced 86 Arb & MaGui sets, are...) is off of that with other mods & such added into it. That's not in dispute Jeff... never was. What I did, here... was to locate a SH4 mod set that already had them in there... already, so would be simple to just copy /paste... & done.

Last I know of, unless this has changed & if My of that last known of info is wrong... then I have no issues with learning that it has changed & will file it away, for future reference... but, anything from 3, had to be reworked, BEFORE it could be used in either 4 or... even 5. & vise versa... anything from 4 or 5, to 3... would also have to undergo rework, in order for it to work in 3.

If such is NOT the case with the flags... then by all means, I stand corrected.

Flags from 3 will work directly in 4
Only changes to the GWX file was the addition of 75 more frames in the animations to match the stock SH4 frames.

Now it's funny that not a SINGLE person has figured out you only need 1 animation to run ALL the flags!
Talk about wanting to cut files sizes!

And for Christ sake! If you want to take my Air Raid Sirens? Do it right!
