Gimme 1h, I will give it my best.

The 4 blades will have to whait a bit...

But what about "TMAP" and texturing??? :rotfl:
Look on picture, reflection and other ...

(BTW..anyone know where the term "Pipe Down" comes from ?)

[CaptainCox]

To make four blades propeller ... it's simply ...
Correct rotation ... it's :hmm: ...

[CaptainCox]

Nor really, look at the blades! they now face inward, not outward.

I have a good setup by today's standards and I just upgraded my video card a couple of months ago. The props still spin backwards, and it's not a graphics issue because I can slow the sub down to a half a knot and they go around r-e-a-l-l-y s-l-o-w-l-y.

Hi, Berry.
If you can, please, publish propellers pictures of Balao (Gato) and S Class (S-18) or give link on these stuff ...

Example D-2 "Narodovoletz":

Picture of models to not offer.

Just look up "Gato propeller image" on Google. One's bound to show up. I did my research last week and at the time I didn't post pictures because they're readily available online and I didn't think anyone would care enough to require proof, LOL.

Osprey's US Submarines 1941-45 has a picture of a Gato class sub with a 4-blade propeller that shows that the starboard prop rotates clockwise - it's on page 36.

Here's an image of a Gato model that shows the detail pretty clearly:



Here's another model image:

Where are your hypocritical reasonings about ethics?
You are too self-confident...
You cannot know my ideas, therefore do not try to guess them ...
:rotfl:
Thanks.

Eh?

Look, the proof is out there. Find it or don't. I don't care. But don't accuse me of hypocrisy when you're posting a photo of a Russian sub's props as if that's evidence of an American sub's props. It isn't.

And I am not your errand boy. If you want to find out what a US sub's props look like, go and find out - do your own research. The problem is, you don't seem to want to. You want me to do it for you, and if I refuse to do it you call me names. I don't have time to be at your beckon call, surfing the internet for you, searching for a sub whose propellers turn the way you prefer them to, and I don't have the patience to sit here while you find ways to let me know that you don't llike me very much. Let's get one thing straight - I don't care if you like me or not - not at all. I'm not here to make friends or enemies - the social aspects of this forum are completely irrelevant to me. All I care about here is making (and finding) good mods so that my copy of SH4 is more realistic.

The Gato propellers turn the way they do because some designer made them that way. The fact that you don't like that fact is completely irrelevant, and it has nothing whatsoever to do with me.

Hell, I've said TWICE that your mod is a good fix for the physics issue. But the fact is, your mod doesn't fix the real problem, which is that the props revolve in the wrong direction. The fact that your mod doesn't fix that aspect of the props should not be my fault. It should not end in accusations of hypocrisy directed at me, and the fact that it apparently does says more about your character than it does about mine. If you can't take constructive criticism maybe you shouldn't be making mods in the first place.

Now this thread is called "The props spin in the wrong direction". Why is it that people seem to need to launch into character assassination whenever someone disagrees with them on TRULY inconsequential matters? These are matters that should be merely of academic interest, and hardly something to fight over. I mean what is wrong with some folks? Anyway, let's get back on topic, shall we?
