Default [WIP] Sub Exterior Lightmaps...

A small eye candy mod that pretty much does what it says on the tin by adding ambient occlusion lightmaps to the external parts of the sub.
This is the same method used in the subs interiors to add shadows. See the images below for the difference...
This is also the method sh4 and 5 use to add ambient shadowing to sub exteriors.

BEFORE:


AFTER:



Still have to go through all the dats and add to the hull and the rest of the conning tower models.

A great addition IMHO. The lack of shadows in SHIII/IV was always a bugger for me.

Keep it up

WOW amazing

I hope you find time to also add it to the crew?

I have the feeling that we will soon have enough material to justify a semi-official GWX3 patch with all these new beauties coming out...while the GWX team will not reunite again, I suppose that just two or three of them could put together all this existing mods and release it as semi-official GWX3.1
