Once again- great work!!!!!!!

I REALLY like the idea of having the insignia and awards as an option. I know it made the mod require more work, but the "rivet counters" really appreciate it.

Thanks for the praise guys. We have spent a lot of time putting this MOD together. I was responsible for all the textures and tried (to my best knowledge) keep historical accuracy. If there are any questions/suggestions about ranks/awards you can either PM or contact me dirtectly at conus00@columbus.rr.com. I have spent COUNTLESS hours on the textures and I'd really like the mod to be as acurate as possible.
Enjoy!

You think wrong... The undershirt actually had the Reichsadler on the chest printed on not a patch. Here is the actual historical piece of the fabric:



Also as far as being "staunch nazi supporters" you are 100% right but I believe that these shirts were standard issues in the Kriegsmarine and had nothing to do with individual's ideology. But I might be wrong.... As I said earlier we strived for maximum historical accuracy and every small thing I have done with textures was (to certain extent) supported by historical documents.

Yep, that was bit complicated (I was myself getting lost in my own texture files and Photoshop layers :rotfl but worth it. Unfortunately that's why the download is about 80MB for low-res and (I think) over 300 MB for hires....

You might want to make another undershirt without the nazi symble on it for our German friends. I believe they can get in trouble if Im not mistaken, for having it in any form on there PC.

very nice work, thank you for this

my only :hmm: is the german crew member in picture #5, his under shirt with a nazi emblem looks like its printed on it rather than being a sewn on patch. i dont think they printed designs on soldiers uniforms or underwear like that during the war.

also it was my understanding that most sub crews were not staunch nazi supporters and didnt even like the nazi party much. for this reason, i believe they would be more inclined to favor a traditional cross style emblem over any nazi symbols. maybe others with more knowledge can confirm or dispute this.

i dont know if you were trying for realism or not and im not trying to be negative on your work, i still like it even with my doubts on one tiny little part of it.
