Sweet skin mate. I installed it and it has the number on my hull. How do I get the skin without the number?

Congrats! Great skin.

First ever? You have a natural talent! Another fine skinner to add to the talent pool here at Subsim!

Thanks mate.

just rename the NSS.GATOT02.DDS and NSSGOTOTowerT02.DDS files to NSS.GATOT01.DDS and NSSGOTOTowerT01.DDS.
The numbers will be gone..

no other numbers can be done yet because of mirror images

You can use 181

That's the number of USS Pompano, Perch class, and it is with that sub and number how the "Pacific Aces" mod for SH2 started already a long time ago

In SH2 we also had the same "mirroing" problem and were initially limited also to the only two US sub models in SH2/DC, Perch and Tambor. Given the hull numbers available, Pompano was obviously spot on.

Oh, and I almost forgot: Boats were painted light grey only in late war. But your skin is very nice!

LOL.. I am now making a skin for Balao. And I wanted to add 181 to that sub until other numbers can be used.

About the light grey. Those are the only color pictures I can find as example for the boat..

I someone has a nice picture or drawing in color, I can try changing the skin color.

Great job, downloading now.

As for the hull numbers, I guess I wasn't the only one hoping and praying that we'd get the correct hull number automatically printed on the boat like in Destroyer Command. Oh well, perhaps someday...

That is what I am going to work on next.. In SHIII there was a posibility to add decal on your boat. I am going to try to use those decals in SHIV for numbers.
I won't be automatic. But it would be glad if we can use more than 101 and 181.

After that the Purpoise class is next.
