Signing off as functional, and ready for sea.

This is by no means the last version of the mod

I still want to change/improve :

- the periscope view : a view through a WWII french periscope would be tops, one through a later (1950s) would be ok

- I still need to make the turret change texture at the same time (July 1, 1942) as the hull and tower

- I need to change the torpedo picture in the loadout screen : the smaller torp is ok for the v24 but the v26 should be a long thin torpedo

- I need to make a TMO patch for her too

Any and all constructive criticism is welcome, people just venting off are not



this mod would not have been possible without :



the sponsoring of Hautpoul on the forum mille sabords who payed for the Surcouf 3d model on Turbosquid


the unrelenting help of my dear friend Peabody, who selflessly made the twin 8 inch gun and helped me tweak the various versions
