Kpt.Strelow,

I will be withdrawing all uniforms to replace the shirt eagle. If members are raising constructive criticism about the uniform/s, then the end result is that they are; in my eyes not elite.

And with all my mods I strive for perfection. I thank you all for your constructive feedback. This is what modding is all about. Back to the drawing board.

Venatore, I just checked both the black and brown uniform shirt eagles and the swastika is correct on them so no need to fix them. As you can see by the party button in my sig, Kpt.Strelow is mistaken about which way the arms go.

[Venatore]

Yes; you are both right......I think. :hmm:

What seems to be happening is on the Tga file the German swastika contained within the circle; somehow flips the other way; once it is in the game. To correct this I have to mirror the swastika on the Tga file so it comes out the right way. There were some really good comments about the colour of the swastika as well (about it being the same colour). I merged an eagle that was two tone with the swastika being silver and the rest of the eagle being gold. I thought it looked good to begin with, but as members raised comments, that it wasn't really realistic I started to agree, I was being lazy and hoping it would go away, but as additional comments were made, I knew the uniform was faulty.

So to that end the uniforms have been returned to the manufacture to be altered. I apologise for this as I know allot of you are on dial-up & downloading these mods can be a pain in the arse, and for that I'm truly sorry for stuffing everyone around.

Another strange thing that I have noticed is some eagle heads face out & other heads face in. I’ve mentioned this before, that I have over time download approximately 130 German eagles & it seem to be half & half.

I’ve opted for the head facing in, my reasoning for this is the eagle is facing your heart, you have given your heart & soul to the Kriegsmarine U-boat Service…well that’s my story & I’m sticking to it.

Once again I am deeply sorry for stuffing everyone around with regards to getting this right the first time & having the complete Elite U-boat Uniform (Black, Blue, Brown, Green & Red) delivered in a timely manner & having it correct the first time.

Dear Venatore,
It is true that with a dial up it takes some time to D/L mods, but your creations are really worth spending the time to do it and after all it is just a matter of patience..isn't it?
I want to say that I do admire your will for making things as perfect as possible and I thank you for that!
So here we go again....a liitle D/L session

:hmm: No wonder some of the workers lose their nerve and put some thing the the wrong way round.....& I suppose they are not all volunteers, which expalins the presence of those officers in black standing in the shadow like a Damocles sword.....

Good luck
