Huh, well I will give it another shot. Lets see what happens.

The reason is to give the opportunity to the community and other moders to create separate skin packs for these ships. Is why I suggest that these ships to have stock/default sh5 skin, nothing custom or any fancy stuff.

I had this idea when I was working on the texture for the first imported unit, the Elco boat and Sober already did a custom skin. Hope you understand what Im suggesting here.

I have seen at least Akita and Kasagisan change skins. I'm not exactly sure how the game switches them (it seems to like some skins more), but I have seen it work, at least in single missions. You can see this also in museum, when checking the same ship, but with different nations.

No, I can't stop modding. Actually I don't leave until Saturday morning. But, I plan to mod up until I have to drive to the airport.

i see some problems on the horizon, i knew that the SH5 dev team had many problems fitting all the content into 512mb grafic card memory... with all that new different ships and skins it could easy lead to ctd`s and performance problems... so my question would be, if it would be possible creating also a DXT5 high compression version of the ship package.

Darn, Stormfly, I actually meant to go ahead and compress all the textures. I will do that for the next version. I am usually opposed to compressing textures, because it does damage them slightly, but since we don't really get that close to the ships, you can't tell.

Thank you for reminding me.

Preformance should not be affected by the number of Ships, or skins...
Just look at Sh 3 and 4, they have MANY more ships and skins than 5 does.

Its the Model, and skin.
If you use Hi-Def stuff.... preformance drops.

Just Sayin..........

Yes, good point. But, some of the stuff we are using here are high def textures.

performance is much more important than eye candy...

V1.1 released, see first post for details.

@Zedi, if you wish to release a new version of the campaign mod while I am gone(for 9days) feel free to take this latest version of the imported ship mod and use it. It has all my latest work. However, there are still some cleanup procedures that need done before we finalize anything. Such as texture compression and the like.

Cheers mate

Many thanks for everything you did!

Bon voyage
