The small British merchant is the only one tested ingame so far. However, this is good news for all ships b/c it proves that very high resolution skins & scratch-built hulls are possible.
I'm not entirely satisfied with many of the older models, so they will be redone.

Keltos & Sledgehammer, let me know which medium boats you are working on apart from U-1. Once the models are finished we can begin to make some minor interior modifications, work on sub paint schemes, and really get the ball rolling with this thing.

Wish I could help........ but my modding skills are dreadful, I couldn't even get my "Clemson to IJN PB102" and "C&D (i.e. Admiralen) to IJN PB106" projects to work properly
All I can contribute is finding and scanning info....

A great thread like this can live wherever it wants.Awesome! This alone shows why the drink coaster business model for simulations makes no sense whatever. By traditional computer game conception, SH4 is an ancient, obsolete drink coaster.
IABL, this project alone shows that SH4 is maybe an adolescent. It hasn't realized 30% of its potential, except for the fact that Ubi has to cut it off at the knees in order to make any more money in the submarine simulation genre. Wonder if they did that for chess or poker? They've been playing baseball for a few years, why not just replace it with something new? It's old technology! Oh, you mean they actually have a sustainable business model? That makes no sense whatever! Nobody would pay to watch a baseball game and then have to just go home. Next time they want to watch they just have to pay again. What sense does that make? This is a great project and will live on my hard drive right beside TMO and RFB installations. You, keltos and peabody and the whole family of modders reveal the underlying hidden greatness in Silent Hunter 4. Salute!

I can get you the specifics if it helps. I don't know how that stuff works in the game.

Excellent. Do you have any more?
As for battlecruisers, I would have hated to have sailed on one of the British ones. The loss of "HMS Hood" proved that not even late-model British BC's were properly protected. Aesthetically, however, they are among my favorite ships. As of this month I have collected lots of screenshots & diagrams for creating models of the "Lion" class and "Queen Mary" variant.

Well done for tackling this one, guys.
SH4 is a splendid graphics platform. IMHO you have wisely concentrated on the subs, which is what SH4 was designed for. The models you have showcased are mouth watering. As a great fan of WW1, I will be following this one with great excitement and wish you every success.
