Kriegsmarine - Bismarck battleship - 2022 edition
Hi everyone,
i'm glad to release this new mod: Bismarck class battleship : D\L link:https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/dow...o=file&id=6257 This is the sixth of a serie of units for Kriegsmarine, reworked in collaboration with flush deck. Based on GWX Development Team's Bismarck battleship, 3d model updated using SHV parts and a lot of details (oblos, stairs, cables, lifeboats, glass windows\interiors, turning radars\rangefinders...). If you've also LBSArado in your Data\German\Air\Roster, you can add scout planes to this battleship adding those lines: [AirGroup 1] StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19410527 Squadron1Class=LBSArado Squadron1No=1 to NBB_Bismark.cfg; Library new version with reworked and improved textures, this will improve also other Vd Kriegsmarine ships' gun. ----------------------------------- CREDITS For this 2022 version: Thanks to GWX Development Team for original Bismarck battleship and for permission to use their great work. Thanks to Stefan Thimme for help me with library! Special thanks to flush deck for new fantastic textures, for ship and library also! Thanks to Sphere, who give me permissions to include and modify his searchlights mod (please read original readme included). Thanks also to Anvar1061 for some suggestions about those searchlights and about optimize .eqp files. Thanks to Fifi for suggestions related with guns' reflections. NOTE: In the library new version, there's a couple of reworked weapons based on another library where in the "author info" i can read the name "isinchievici"; i was unable to contact him. He has full credit for his work. If you, who are reading, are the author, please contact me if you want me to remove these guns, or if you want me to modify this disclaimer. I can only say thank you, for now. ----------------------------------- This mod replace all previous versions =) Best regards, Vd

There is one caveat. Stock SH3 contains a different deck texture. This should be taken into account.

About different deck tga with same name, yes, i've it too in the textures subfolder. Well, it doesn't seem to create any problem. Maybe the fastest idea is just delete the "stock" file? Or is it needed for something? Best regards, Vd

The problem is that these textures replace the existing ones with a certain algorithm.
It is best to place the new ones in the appropriate replacement folders without deleting the original ones.

In order to save memory, what if i just rename NBB_BismarkC into the dat, for example, as NBB_BismarkD ? Shouldn't this broke the bond? Best regards, Vd

This will not make the "big" texture smaller, but it can be removed from the .dat file.

LSH3 Bismarck Model is very odd.
Hey there VonDos just wanted to let you know about other super mods your bismarck model is not the same as Onealex model. Just to let you know.

Yes, my model is 0% related with Onealex's one. Just a question: what is the ship in the picture? Maybe my model installed over Onealex's one? EDIT: Maybe your previous Bismarck model included NBB_Bismark_T02.tga and\or NBB_Bismark_T03.tga files? My version only need NBB_Bismark_T01.tga. If you've T02 or T03 too, please remove them. Best regards, Vd

You're welcome!
Well, i guess a lot of modders in the years manage to create their own version of Bismarck, every one with own textures, details, skins and parts. She's a very iconic, legendary warship Best regards, Vd

It looks fantastic! Thank you so much for doing my favorite ship and then so well with such a quality.
But shouldnt there are the flag/swastika on the deck? or can you do a version with it? Greetings and Regards!

Hi! Thank you so much for your words According to Bismarck's War Diary, 13:07 hours on 22 May 1941: "Alarm beendet. Anschliessend auf Befehl Flotte Fliegersichtzeichen auf den Türmen und Hoheitszeichen auf Back und Schanz übermalt. (trad Alarm ended. Subsequently, by the order of Fleet the aircraft identification insignias on the turrets and the national emblems [swastikas] on the forecastle and poop deck are painted over." When Bismark sank, the swastika was removed \ painted over, so the absence of the svastika is historically accurate. Also, some countries have problems with the use of this emblem. I know, this is an historical fact, and, also, the emblem was used centuries ago by others people, cultures and religions. Best regards, Vd
