I'm more than willing to help in any way I can. I'm no graphics artist but maybe i can help with the editing of the Turms, Placement etc. Send me the TGA'S if you want and i'll create the emblems. As you said any help we can give Tarjak should lighten his load a bit.

Steve.

Hey I'm happy if the load gets shared around a bit. My main source of pain is colouring the raw black and white images. I've got a few hundred scans out of the 1000 or so emblems and am still scanning them in hi res so that editing is easier. PM me if you want to help out.

Here's a silly request: I'd like to see the original numbers for the early boats. You know, nothing but the numbers?

Should be relatively easy to do. as all it requires is a number to be typed on either side of the Turm. Just need the Type II turms as most of these boats were II's. The VIIB and VIIC I'll take a look at when I get some spare time.

Just a dumb question: Is it possible to make the turm emblems appear in the reflections without major surgery?

This is a nice pic but something is missing...

Fantastic work guys, my hats off to you as usual, Privateer superb mod m8. I had some great fun with my new sub emblems last night.

I have a little question to ask, would either yourself or Recerboy mind if I experimented merging the dat files of this mod and RB's Flags and Pennants mod?, that's assuming that it's not impossible. If I am successfull then I'll post here and someone could release it as a combined mod after suitable testing with full credit given of course to both of your work. Hopefully this combined mod would include at least 7b and 7c Turms.

Cheers

Aces

Looking at the commissioning dates for the subs there were only 8 Type VIIB's commissioned pre Sept 1939 (U-45 through U-53 except U-50). I'll do the VIIA's as well as they looked similar enough. When the Type II and IX turms are ready I'll take a look at the boats that were in commission pre-war.

I should be able to release a VIIB pack of pre-war numbered turms this weekend if I get time. I won;t do any VIIC's (U-69 and up),as none were in commission at the outbreak of hositilities and therefore would not have carried a number on the tower between their launch and commissioning, unless I can find some photos that prove otherwise. From what I can tell these would have only had their DAK emblems which were the ID painted on after launch by the manufacturer and worn until commissioning.
