So, this can be done with Britisch and American PT boats too, right? I can imagine a US PTboat campaing in the Pacific?

As you saw in my model,, the torpedo is made,, just have to get them into OBJ and texture there
Actually the model already exist, I exported the torpedo model from torpedos.dat, and merged it with the hull model of the s-boot, just like I did with the old ones. The problem is that I don't know how to "merge" the .MTL of the torpedo (separated from the other torps)



with the .MTL of the hull



to have all the textures displayed properly in game

The .mtl import in 3dsmax, I tried to merge them, it show ok in deep exploration but not in game as you see on the above screenshot. Actually I don't know how these things work, just trying
We need someone to re-uv map the model. There's plenty of guys around who can do it... anyone? :hmm:

Maybe I could make them destructible
Maybe this is too much, but perhaps this will be good to make small explosion-zone around. So explosion of spare torpedo can damage S-boat. I don't think the spare torpedos could detonate from bullets, but from shells.. maybe. Some explosives detonates only from electricy, but I am not very good in german WII explosives science. Just knew the equivalents for TNT.

PS: Now S-boote looks much better. Wasn't spare torpedoes covered in any way? It's not good to leave pistols and screws exposed to salt water, waves and wind...

It may look silly but it was on the actual boats... no idea what it's supposed to be though.

I read in the S-Boot section at PrinzEugen that no S-100 armored bridge boat (which is the kind we currently have in SH3) had any sort of camouflage. However, I don't want to discourage our texture friends, so I'll leave it up to whoever to do whatever.

Why the heck did I even post this?

:hmm:

i bet the torps are pretty inert when they are sitting there but i may be wrong. If they were so dangerous, they would keep them in armored boxes or somthing..

whats the E.T.A of the 1.0 release or next update??

Well I bet if the warhead got hit with a 37mm shell the result would not be pretty. However, if you hit it dead center with the same 37mm shell it'd probably just break in two and be a real pain to clean up after (if you survive the encounter, of course)

By the way...Gehwer...do you own a K-98 or the original Gehwer from before the 20's??

ok back on topic...

yeah well we could make a very small explosive zone, but we sould make sure it takes a good whallop to kill it because i think it would be too easy for one little stray shell to kill you! but one does wonder how safe they actually were, did the Kriegsmarine have any procedure or armored covers for making safe the warheads??

I have a '43 dated K98 (can't remember if it's a bnz or a byf...I think it's a byf)

But anyways: Yeah, it needs to be sufficiently difficult to hit to where it's always in the back of your head but not compelling you to break off an engagement cause you're too worried about a stray shell causing torpi-kiri.

Haha, and I just spent hours camouflaging a boat... it doesn't say that no "armoured bridge boat" had camouflage though, just that there's no photos around.

"Photographic evidence of armored bridge S-Boats painted in camouflage patterns is scarce with only one "splotch" pattern identified to date. It was a temporary measure used for a risky daylight transfer of boats to a different operational area."
