From the FOTR sun thread, the AOTD crew has done this.

Here's a modern battle ensign

Yep , we have downsized the flag about 10% by using the flags.dat from SH3 with small changes. of some flag-designs.
They havent the same animation of the SH4-Flags but no one needs this ultimate animated flags from SH4 cause a flag should only help you to detect a ship´s nation.

Real animated Airbattles/Dogfights between planes are much more needed in SH4.
We did it with FOTRS :rotfl:

so is it something you remade using the sh3 files as a guide or did you just swap files out and they have the sh3 animation which is why they move different?

Here's a photo of the USS Thresher (SS-200) that my grandfather took at decommissioning time (late 1945). Thought this photo might help with judging the actual size of flags flown in WWII.

They move different cause they got the animation of SH3 flags.

so all you did was directly replace the files with a copy of the sh3 files then?

and if you wouldnt mind sharing the info, which files were needing to be swapped?

Hi Webster,

yes i directly replaced the flags.dat from SH4 with the one from SH3.
After this i had a testrun to have a look at it.
All works fine but some flags where showin in wrong colours.
I have reworked the tga´s and then its finished.

10% smaler Flags is the result.
