[REL] MetalHud and Stowa Kriegsmarine deck watch

[jaketoox]

Hi for everyone!

Well,folks...finally i have been able to finish what i started some two months ago..there was a bit of working with the seafoam for the ROW and it took most of my time in last weeks...but now when foam is finished, i had time to finish my other work...

First i have to say that this community has given me so much, so it's my turn to give something back...that's how it works best...right???

So here you are: Stowa Kriegsmarine deck watch,(three different flavours, two of them in pictures below), and Metal Hud with dials....Both are SH4 v. 1.4 compatible......take a look first:

-1-


-2-


-3-


-GRAYBARS-


[EDIT] GRAYBARS added..another change in here is a bit darker dialrings too.

...so that's how they look...interested..???....

...ok now...the installation part:

-1- download
-2- extract to a folder
-3- browse the extracted folder, and when you see the readme-file: according to Stowa Kriegsmarine,copy one of the folders to your JSGME mods folder, and enable it with JSGME....same procedure goes with Metal Hud,but there's only one folder to choose, copy it to JSGME mods folder and enable it...now just enjoy

Thanks to leovampire for testing these mods, and thanks to Ubisoft for making modder-friendly game like this..

Legal stuff can be found on readmes included on these mods

Suggestios and opinions are more than welcome, and i will answer the questions(if there's any) every now and then,....you know, i would like to actually PLAY THE GAME too...at least some times...:rotfl::rotfl:

[EDIT]
__________________________________________________ ____
I was thinking a bit (happens here too, but rarely...:rotfl and just thought that you may have some wishes about appearance of MetalHud....for example what would brushed steel look like for the bars, maybe in two different versions, dark and light...would that be cool??...any kind of combinations are possible...

Also i thought that i can make separate downloads available for DIALS and HUD, so you can make your own mixture of them...original versions will stay as they are now.

So i only need some feedback, and i'll see what i can do.

NEW!!!


COMPASS HEADING INDICATOR FOR METALHUD AND DIALRINGS REPLACEMENT MOD.


Compass heading indicator is an addon for your existing MetalHud installation.

Dialrings replacement is a mod which replaces any existing rings around gauges on your hud, and adds heading indicator for the compass.So now you can have exactly the same dialrings, like in the MetalHud.

Both mods are included in the same package and they come in two flavours,bright and dark...just select one of them to enable with JSGME.

[EDIT]

Before you proceed, you need to download and install jimimadrid's great tool, called JTxE. With that tool you don't need to modificate your menu_1024_768.ini by yourself. Link to the thread is HERE
