I.Love.This.Mod.

I had a thrilling escape from the East Coast of England last night, watching the sub getting rocked by depth charges from inside the control room, as the crew held grimly to their posts... something about that extend view through to the other compartment just transported me so much further into the scene.

Is it realistic to expect the other hatch being opened sometime? I wish we were allowed to give you some donation for your time to make it more worthwhile. Can we? Would this help?

For now, please accept the profound thanks of another reinvigorated SH3 fan.

No comment about other hatches at this time.
BTW, I wouldn´t accept any donations. I´m just glad that the mod calls this much of attention and so many like it.



now that I have lowered the typeII obs periscope I´m not sure about how low it should be.
  • obs periscope handles have been rotated (pic#1)
  • obs periscope has been lowered
#1

#2 #3

Which position do you prefer?

Regards,
DD

I love the 3 positions. I vote for a release of a open hatch pack for all subs, that could let us choose the position of the obs periscope. Amazing job one more time, DD....................................

I'd say that #1 looks best, although #2 is probably most realistic.

My vote is either #2 or #3 - As stated, a lowered periscope is more realistic.

I' ll take the opportunity to say many thanks for all the hard (unpaid) work.

Like Alex I would love to have the choice of all three.

However, if this is not a realistic option, I would go with either 2 ( more realistic) or 3 ( prettier).

Have a slight preference for 3 but will be happy to accept whatever you decide to do.

Great stuff DD ( as is everything you produce for us!! )

#2 looks the most convincing IMO.

Nobody likes the first one ?
Even if it does not look realistic, I just want to say that #1 is PURE EYE CANDY. AND I DEFINITELY LOVE IT ! :p

Slightly OT: this is what using the periscope looked like in a type II. At least I think that this is a type II. Looks very similar to me, small diameter and all that. But I'm open for corrections!
Caption on backside says 'Fifth anniversary of the U-Boat arm 1940'. In German, of course. Although the photo was probably taken before, when having to guess from the jacket.

Sorry for the bad quality, had to take a photo of it as I don't have a scanner.

Cheers

Kai
