A story of U-boat decks & uniforms

Nice Grenso. I'll compare my file sizes to yours once done.
As you know I'm working on some Tooling that may help with file sizes.

Do you mean the obj or the gr2 file?
At the moment I can't say when I'll finish. I currently have a lot to do in real life and usually only on weekends. I also have to see if the version for the VIIC also fits the VIIA, VIIB and VIIC41. I have already removed the existing structure for VIIC41F.

Depends on how your doing it.
I'm only interested in GR2 files.
I rip meshes with different Tools other then TDW's stuff.

Ah okay. You know that I use TDW's tool to export the 3D objects, edit the OBJ files in Blender and then import them again with the tool.
The only thing that bothers me is, as I told you, that Blender doesn't export the OBJ files in the right order and I always have to sort manually with Notepad++. 😡

[Jeff-Groves]

Send me one of your obj files exported from blender.
I may need a python file from your version also. That's what controls the export so might be able to fix the problem.

In principle, the base is good, the textures correct... you can always play around with the trap models and colors, etc...
We're waiting for the icing on Grenso's cake...

This version is practically perfect... only the plates on the front deck are not correct... at least for me... if you removed them it would be great...
Pascal thanks again for the "Taff"...



I will try version 5 VII B...

Salut Maximus! These plates are imposed by the game - and the difficulty lies in modifying the location of the grids (as far as possible) to avoid overlapping.
The only thing you can do is change their color in the “conning” or “structure” files, I believe.

I doubted it would be difficult...we'll make do with it...that said, your work really brings a plus...Know that I'm not an expert modder like you...I know how to do a bit of " DIY" ...modifying this game requires a lot of knowledge.. I would love to acquire it... but I don't have enough time.. I see the progress GrenSo has made.. it's getting good..
I'll see... but I'll have to find the time later...
we have great support thanks to D"jeef here... I thank him... making everyone benefit from this knowledge on the subject..

This ones are parts of the mashes and are in gr2 files.
