Your latest ship, TB-1924, is a little too 'smooth', not beat up, not realistically 'worn' for my taste. Nice vessel, but too 'pretty' to look real. The bigger ships look OK, but they are more complicated and will be seen from a greater distance so 'smoothness' is not apparent.

That has to do with the skin, not so much the model.

I wonder, are there any skinning tutorials for SH3 laying about? I do paintschemes and such for Il-2 and several other games, and I'm always looking for something to do with Photoshop. :hmm:

Sorry to go off topic there, lovely ships U-47!

Chinese U-47, you have a PM about the emblem that you asked for.

I have some requests too.

Thanks.

Weiß Pinguin: Yes, the smoothness is a product of the skin. I've been asking in several quarters for direction to some graphics tutorials for doing some modifications but haven't gotten any real guidance...maybe just asking in the wrong places. I hate to really bother folks with requests but IMHO the more people working on mods the better.

I notice that IABL gives his example in Wings, maybe that's what Chinese U-47 is working in. Question is what are the 3-D interior files that one opens to to use with either Wings or GMAX? That is, beyond the files that one opens with S3D or DatTexExtract that seem to be flat files integrated into a 3 dimensional world only by reference.

What a great job you done! I'm very happy that you did this work so quickly I tried your wings3d I suppose you have know what happened
I'm sorry I'm in my aunt's home for the Spring Festival,which is so important to Chinese as Christmas to the west.Though it maybe not so important to me,but I get no restaurant open on this time,so I have no choose but live in my aunt's home(you may know,I split up with my parents).
I hope you don't mind about my complaints.
I'll get back at about 3 or 4 days later.when I get back,I'll post things you need as soon as possible.
Merry Spring Festival to you.

I always think about to make a mod which like DC2,as in China,it seems most of players like type 34 DD better than battleships,that's why in my next plan there are more DD/TB but not cruiser or battleship.
Someone told me,they like DD because it's much nimble and danger than invincible battleship.

You know my 3d skin is very poor

Thank you,Weiß Pinguin.You have answered this question.
I use 3DMAX sometimes,but very poor skin.

If someone could point me in the right direction, I think I could provide some sort-of less basic skins, at least until someone else can get going with proper ones. :hmm:

I'm sorry I can't help you on this,in fact,my girlfriend may know this,but her English is even poor than my 3D skin
I suppose iambecomelife maybe the one who know:hmm:

Do you have a .DAT file for the ship you could upload? If so we could work on the surfaces to make them less "smooth".
