Editing DDS files - battleflags

[Akula4745]

Many thanks, tei!!

The early war - late war difference had me looking in the wrong place... and I knew something wasn't right because my (early war) hull is dark - not the lighter grey I was seeing in the DDS file. Now I know! Had a couple of sizing issues at first... but I am always open to feedback... too big, too small, too far front/back?

Thanks tei. I already knew about the meaning of the T and lr but always wondered about those 01/02 suffixes.

Akula4745, nice emblem! May be I would have "flip horizontal" a picture, but this is just "imho". Really like it.

ichso, glad to help.

About date period:
For example - Balao (\Data\Roster\American\Submarine\Balao.cfg)

[Texture 1]
TextureName=data/Submarine/NSS_Balao/NSS_Balao_T01.tga
LightmapTextureName=data/Submarine/NSS_Balao/NSS_Balao_O01.tga
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19440504
Frequency=1

[Texture 2]
TextureName=data/Submarine/NSS_Balao/NSS_Balao_T02.tga
LightmapTextureName=data/Submarine/NSS_Balao/NSS_Balao_O01.tga
StartDate=19440505
EndDate=19990711
Frequency=1

I have never changed these settings, but may be it's useful for you.

Cheers!

Thanks again, tei.... I set it up that way and did not notice the game had flipped it. Even my small merchant pennants were pointing in the wrong direction. Thanks for pointing it out.
