Thank you very much! I will test it tonight. I know about mods and how to enable them. I'll let you know...

Can a Tower Emblem be Normalized "CustomEmblem_N.dds" to give it a 3d FX?

The image below would look amazing if it can be done.

Normalize to give it a 3D effect? Are we thinking about the same kind of normalization?

Ah right, guess you mean normal mapping. I don't know if the engine allows it on those textures, but I don't see why not. Think it requires additional work though, can't say I'm familiar with the technique.

I'd love to try, but I am in "Mare Nostrum" and I cannot find the damn Group H nor the Aircraft Carrier anywhere. I have been searching for weeks and not a single cargo ship, hundreds of destroyers but none of them is Group H. Can't anyone just mod something in so that you can see the targets on the map? I am really tired of searching like a monkey

I am telling this because I need to be in port to change the tower emblem...

Just make a unique save and load one of the auto-saves in port. Give it a test, and continue your patrol. At least you know it's waiting for you at the start of the next.

(if it works as intended of course)

Hi!

I did that. It works very well and the wolf looks good, although it would be much better if the inner areas would be black instead of transparent. I am trying to make a sreenshot...
