However, the floor of the conning tower interior remains unchanged.

Believe it or not, it really is the same texture as the rest of the interior deck plating. Try out the colored floors mod and pick green or blue, the floor in the conning tower ends up a really dark shade of whatever the rest of the boat is.

For found the texture name of elements, i use Granny viewer -> choose the mesh element -> view in detail -> material binding

Wow, I think you are right. Sorry for not believing you before man. That is really odd, I bet if I take a look at the shadow mapping for that room, the floor will be darkened out.....

[Capt Jack Harkness]

Haha no problem, it is pretty hard to believe...

[SteelViking]

Capt Jack Harkness, you have helped me out once again! It sure was the shadow map for that room that was making the floor look totally different. And, after I looked at it for a while, I realized that the shadow mapping in that room was crap anyway, so I am working on redoing it right now. Thanks for telling me it was the same texture, I would have gone crazy looking for it if you had not.

On a side note everyone, if you see any shadows inside the sub(especially on the floor) that look weird or out of place, give me a screen shot, let me know how you think it should look, and I will redo them. Shadow maps are not easy to work with, but I have messed around with shadows enough to do almost anything with them now.

First off SteelViking, this is a great great mod. I was looking to combine your interior mod, environmental mod, and CaptHelms Exterior lighting mod, and started comparing Lights.cfg files for differences. When I compared your Lights.cfg to Env2.3 Lights.cfg there are only a couple differences and they are in the [HDR Interior Submarine] section and all is good. But upon comparing your Lights.cfg to the Lights.cfg of Env2.5 there are a 3 lines that are different and they are in the [HDR Exterior] section. Granted, they aren't huge differences in values but I wanted to let you know just in case. Not even sure if these make a difference in the Environmental mod or not. Just an FYI. Once again - Great mod. Keep up the good work. By the way; you say you're East Coast? Me too, Virginia.

Hey, thanks for catching that! I must have synced my light.cfg up with an older version of Env(I have all of the versions hanging around). It will not make a big impact on the environmental mod, but I will of course change it to be completely compatible in my next version. I think I will be releasing v1.1 in about a day or two, finally. Thanks for the compliment, and thanks again for finding that problem, I believe that compatibility between mods is really important.

Not a problem! As you can see I have all the old copies of Env mod archived too. Can not wait for your V1.1, great mod. I went ahead and combined CaptHelm's sound mod in with yours (mod soup spring cleaning), and man my boat looks and sounds great. Keep it up, I check back everyday for your newest update.

Actually, I have been wanting some other people's input on the sound. You see, I have actually gone through Capthelm's audio mod with a sound editor and cleaned a few things up, for instance, some of the sounds end very abruptly so I fixed stuff like that. Also, as you mentioned, it would help thin out some people's mod soup. I would just include it without a second thought, but I do not want to put it in if the majority of people prefer another sound mod.

So, to anyone and everyone, what is your opinion on this?

I look forward to hearing your changes to the sounds if you release them SteelViking. I'm actually using a mixture of sounds from CaptHelm's Sounds, Paco's Sounds, and DBSM now. Did a little mix-n-match mod for the sounds that I like the best. Can't wait for V1.1 so get BigReds butt in gear.

Every day that I delay for BIGREG to finish his end of things, I just keep improving more stuff. I think I might include just the sounds that I fixed up.

Oh, no worries, I don't mind waiting, it just means that our mods are going to be all the better.

That sucks, I am sorry to hear about that.

I am disgusted for only 0.1 mg too next time I would drink more so that it is really justified
