Thanks Dan, shows how long I've been out of the picture!

Well I am a purist myself when playing say some mod pack like NYGM.

at first I was with the naysayers,, but then I considered more about it.

I think it is a masterful idea, and a very interesting possible alternate to the SHIII premise.

I have worked oit out on a seperte disk of a "what if" the Germans , brits and USA were against Japan (yep, added all the japanese craft available.)
Quite fun,

Ahoy to all.
I hope that you have good ball/party for these holidays. I have “life without computers” and been with my family and girlfriend… Now I back to the study and continue work on IGM. Today I make a better rank insignias for IGM and make small ADD-ON for it.

I'm upload it on moddb and wait for authorization.
I will upload it to the filefront tomorrow.


Now I will begin reskining the subs. I hope to finish first sub very soon.

I recommended usage of this mod with GWX EXPANSION and IGM but it also works with any other mod or original SH3. (maybe you only must change a background of rank picture because it is moded specially for usage with IGM...)

[Wolf359]

If you went or if you can help me to make IGM better you are welcome. Separately I need help with strange shadows/lighting bug on my uniforms in command room.

When final version of IGM be done I planed upload it in 3 different version for most groups of SH3 players:
1. with my custom Imperial emblems and without swastikas
2. without my custom Imperial emblems and without swastikas
3. without my custom Imperial emblems and with swastikas (for people who went to use it)
Ahoy

I m sorry for lateness in IGM subs skinning progress, but I been very busy with preparation/studding for exams and I don’t work on my mod.


Yesterday I try extract TGA textures of sub hulls from .dat files “data\Submarine and from data\Objects” with tool Pack3D but this tool always show me THIS “java.lang. Negative.Array.SizeException” error when I try open .dat files in “data\Submarine” folder and most .dat files in data\Objects folders.
See picture:

I only can open some .dat files in “data\Objects” folder such as “Turm2A_1_hd.dat” or “Turm9c_1_hd.dat” in these files I find some sub hull textures but only texture from Type II subs is maybe valid for reskinning, for I Type IX don’t find proper hull texture in this .dat files, Type VII sub “Turm7b_1_hd.dat” can’t open and Type XXI sub .dat I don’t find in “\data\Objects”.


With which tool I can extract .TGA textures from .dat files?


Thanks for help.
