2 questions about crew uniforms

rob89 · 07-11-08, 09:26 PM

Hello again. I have 2 questions for you mates to help me out with if you are willing.

Firstly, could anyone point me in the direction of a specific crew skin mod. I cannot remember either the name or the developer but it contains alot of skins for customising your officers and men with clothing such as check shirts and braces etc. If I remember correctly it also contained a skin for white caps for the officers and the ability to have them sitting further back on the head of the officer.
It looked fantastic but unfortunatly I lost my file along time ago.

Secondly, is there anyway that the rainclothes for the watch crew can be modded so that they are worn 24/7 instead of just during wet weather.
As you are all aware, in Das Boot the watch crew wears leather jackets while on watch in all weathers and it always seemed a little odd to me that the crew would be manning their watch positions dressed in just shirts and trousers with no other kind of protection from the atlantic weather.

Thankyou for any assistance.
Rob.

You're thinking of the 'Das Boot Clothes Mod'.

Check my sig.

Thankyou very much mate!
I dont suppose you have any screenshots you could upload do you?
I'd like to see what they are like before I install them.
Cheers!

CCIP's screenshot from the original link is still up:

I don't currently have it installed, as I'm playing with different mods right now. here is the .tga for the suspenders:

One thing you can do is download it, then look at the individual files; or install it with JSGME and see how it looks in action. My chief has the black trousers and vest, my 1WO is in uniform, my navigator wears the correspondent's white sweater and the POs all have randomized plaid shirts.

The white caps mod was a different one - I don't remember which; nor do I have it as only the captain wore a white hat.

I think there is a possibility for a big mod regarding clothes.
Using the functions of SH3Commander crews could have variations of clothes for seasons and climates i.e. lighter clothes in warm and sweaters etc in cold climates. Even a mixture of uniform and casual or perhaps a personal atire for an officer. I have had it were my crew grew beards in mid patrol. All is possible, even with the limitations of SH3.

BTW, IIRC (I'm not sure about this at all) crew hands were a bit out of wack with the Das Boot clothes mod (so they seem to me anyway having just put it on recently) and there was a Better Hands mod which fixed it.

They look fantastic. Massive improvement on the current GWX ones (no offence

)
However, the hands look a little...well...odd.
Could anyone point me in the direction of the Better Hands mod?
