Flags on subs in SH4
Is there a mod for put US flags to subs in SH4? (I use SH4 plus TMO plus RSRDC). A mod similar to Flags and pennants for SH3 (activated by SHIFT/CTRL + F).
Many thanks and regards. Fitzcarraldo

No comments? Is it impossible put the flags in the boats of SH4? (as SH3)...
Regards. Fitzcarraldo

Let's ask the "jap-gang"!
Two questions: - where to find the flag node??? - can it be made to be enabled (show/hide) by a command? |

"Beast Below" had some Fleet Boats with flags not too long ago if i remember correctly. (If I'm mistaken on the author don't shoot me!)
Now the T-Class British boats have flags I'm sure of.

I did have a mod that added Hull Numbers, Ship Logo's, Diesel Smoke and Flags. I ended up removing the flags because I was not able to figure out how to Show/Hide on demand and many users didnt like it.

Hondo's Valor at Sea website has a nice (but small) graphic showing the US Flag mounted high on the aft AA deck in his header which looks similar to real B&W photo's I have seen. On his website banner the graphic is slightly larger:
http://www.valoratsea.com/main.htm I would like to see a mod that positions the Flag there instead but am perfectly happy without the Flag because I don't think they ran up the colors except upon returning to base, etc. I don't think they would be displayed while on patrol, nor were the large hull numbers. Happy Hunting! Art

Would like very much to simulate that, hence the request for a command key to raise the old rag... Check his FileFront-link in signature. |

I try every rare opportunity I can to use his method of night surface attack on a convoy. It is not so easy in SH4 as in the old SHCE where the escorts were at the four corners with maybe one leading and one trailing. Happy Hunting! - (and hopefully we'll see that mod ) Art

anything?
TheDarkWraith made this possible in sh5 @ this post: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=167037
I tried converting his Sub Flags over to sh4 by simply edit/changing his files from the VIIA -over to- VIIB however the only changes that actually showed up in game was his flagpole cylinder model part of the conning tower the flags themselves didn't show up at all probably because there is no submarine parts folder dir tree in sh4 that some file is referencing to.. owell i tried.. any rate hope someone figures this out as I would like this in sh4 as well.

I was looking at the possibility of adding flags to conning towers the other day. It seems like a simple operation of extracting the proper flag/model from the dat it currently resides in, cloning it, and importing it into the Conning tower dat file, and positioning it. After that, it'll need a visibility controller so its not visible underwater.
I might do it later, but not right now, i think its out of the scope of a "patch" (which is all I'm working on right now) and more in the realm of being part of a full update, given the number of conning tower objects and cumulative file size's involved. Besides that there's another item i was considering for conning towers, so if i do it, ill do both at once. Later....MUCH later. |
