Hi Verte,

Yes i always hate that screen either that why i want to make if possible a small dramatic cinematic showing the horror of war depicting the dead crew in flooded control room with camera focus on on 1 men hand holding tight to a picture of his girlfriend. I know it is quite an intense scene but war was not pretty and i want the player to feel that intensity.

If i cannot manage to integrate a cinematic at least just a picture of the 3d rendered scene will do it to.

One step at the time i will try my best to improve what i think will make a very intense and dramatic improvement on the original version.

I am like a squid lol right now i'm working on almost 5 different mods one major and minor one but with nice addition to immersion like the loading screen i have model my self in 3d and put myself at the periscope like that famous close shot picture of Erich Topp and instead of having the red loading bar i have put a Papenburg gauge with a blue loading bar.

Other one is instead of having red crew members to represent dead crew i have render human body wrap in the German flag look more appropriate to honor the dead crew members loyal services.

And also many other misc interface screen i am only beginning

When my mods will be released everybody will be allowed full access to all my work without any restrictions so they can freely integrated to their own mod the only thing i ask is to be kind enough to put me in the credits.

But right now i am swearing like i never did in my entire life because everything was going perfectly well all 3d additions import in game flawlessly and the new uvw layout work perfectly textures are simply gorgeous but i just cannot yet pin point the problem with my lightmap they show in sh3 but in game i see nothing the complete conning tower is totally invisible.

Make me feel angry cause i am so close to release the first video in game maybe if lucky tonight if not then when i figured out the nasty problem.

If it was not that the geometry of my sub is completely redone i would have ask permission to Flakmonkey to integrated is beautiful lightmap to my mod but geometry has to be identical for lightmap to work.

Wish me luck today and maybe tonight i will upload a video in a new WIP thread title : U-BOOTTYPIIA_HAHD.

Thank to all for your fantastic support without some of you i would have quit!

Regards Hans,

Don't even think about it, such positively possessed and perfectionist persons are the best I also hope, that other great modders will help you.
