Thanks for you kind words my dear friend, a good dress is always better worn by a beautiful body

And thank you Fifi and all of you for your support, our best boost.

Looking at your screen, I will a make a small update on the gun texture to make something more close to the body map grey shade.

Hello VonDos

I salute you, Stefan Timmer, Sphere, Japlance and your other gifted partners on your wonderful ship mods. They are truly amazing.

Can I mod these italian navy ships into NYGM without problems? Is there a technical reason why they arent already modded into nygm. It would make Mediterranean campaign so much more realistic.

Second question, can I remove some of the T01.tga T02.tga files from the data/Sea folder of the mod if I wanted a lighter install package? Is there a way to use the skins separately with say JSGME. How do the skins work?

My apologies if these questions have been answered in this or another thread.

Thanks again to you and all the great modders and contributors to this wonderful community!

They are already if you play my NYGM enhanced (but not 100% of them)
If you plan to add ships, the zones in zone.dat must correspond to the ones existing in zones.Cfg of NYGM !

As Fifi said. They're compatible with almost everithing out here, using their own library (they're always tested on Vanilla and GWX Gold, for reference), but some with some megamods you could need some small adaptations...
The technical reasion, btw, i can only guess, is related with use of memory. More ship you add, more memory you use, and, with a 32 bit program like SH3, you have to make some choices.

Yep, but you need to rename the remaining textures in order to have a new T01 etc. Game engine just read progressive numbers. If you've, for example, T01, T02, T04, T05 and T06, only T01 and T02 will be used!

With JSGME idk. With SH3 commander, using folder by time you can assign a specific skin to a specific time of the war. Another way, if you want, for example, a specific cruiser of a class, and you've only a generic member of the class with textures for every member, is clone the unit and assign him a specific roster name. But this will use memory and address.

Thank you for your quick response VonDos and Fifi. I haven't tried Fifi's NYGM enhanced because I am presently using an 11 year old laptop with integrated graphics and 5400rpm platter so I suspect some of those enhancements might strain the poor computer .. but it looks like its going to save me all this work I was about to get into. I appreciate your help!
