First off, proper valve timing. In stock it looks like all cylinders are synchronized, whereas in reality each cylinder needs to have the valve timing shifted 120* from the one before it. Basically, if cylinder No. 1 is at Top Dead Center then No. 2 should be a third of a revolution before TDC, and No. 3 should be at two thirds before TDC, and Nos. 4-6 are a mirror-image of of 1-3.



The second idea is to seperate the animations for the left and right engines so that when one is charging the batteries it can be animated at full speed, while the engine driving the ship is still animated at telegraph speed (preferably with independent sountracks for each engine, too, but that might be harder to implement).

A smaller problem is that in stock the port-side shaft is stalled when charging batteries, but the starboard engine indicates full speed in the engine room, control room and conning tower. Either the shaft or the gauges need to be swapped...

Some interesting suggestions there, although work finished on this mod quite a few months back, but feel free to implement any changes/tweaks/alterations on your own install + you have my full permission to use/alter the mod as you see fit and share any changes you might make with the community

Update on me progress..

got the mod all in place and working swell..

until i turn the engines on that is... i get blue screen of death.

has anyone else had this? i know this is usualy associated with drivers etc. but all my drivers have recently been a ok.

Do you have to install all folders in the file? Ive only installed the FM_NewInterior_V1.0 folder.

all im using is GWX.3.0

Congratulation to this enormous job FM, it's absolutly great.
I've installed yesterday and I search again how can I walk in the engine room(camera is attached as in the F2 basic vue) but even like it it's really perfect.

Si je ne me trompe, Shift+F2 est le raccourci qui te permet de parcourir tout l'intérieur disponible à ce jour, d'un bout à l'autre. Clique F2, tu arrives dans la salle des commandes, et clique sur Shift+F2, ainsi tu accèdes à la caméra libre dans cette même salle, qui te permet d'obtenir n'importe quel point de vue sur tout et n'importe quoi, dans tout les compartiments disponibles.

Rough translation:

Shift+F2 is a shortcut that allows you to move inside the whole submarine. You click F2, you are in the command room. You click Shift+F2 and you are in free camera mod for all the compartments.

Hey Alex! I thought this thread was in english?

Oh !
In french dans le texte !
Merci Alex.


I must try again but I had read "the fck*** manual"(copyright FM lol) before the test, I did F2 and Shift F2 but no free move. Perhaps another mod interferes. I tested this mod with a type VII and then I returned to my campaign on a type IX. And I could see that in the type IX, the free camera is active too. It's very fun.
I'll try again.

Thanks a lot mates.


EDIT

Ok, it works fine !
But here, the solution is:
Shift + E and right after Shift + F2.
If only Shift + F2, I still fully blocked by the watertight doors(? "portes étanches") although I have the OH mod installed.

Mates...it's ENORMOUS to walk in the engine room !
E-NOR-MOUS !

Eternal thanks to FlackMonkey for this wonderful mode.



PS: you can watch some pics on my forum, it's not a commercial message, it's a tribute to FlackMonkey.

Chisum is from Anvers. Not from Antwerpen. Therefore we've got the same native language, making it easier to me to explain him how it all works. It's as simple as that.

@ Chisum : Ctrl+H and Shift+H are used to open and close that door - still in the current version of FM's interiors, if I remember correctly. Same as in DD's interiors.
