OLZS - RMS Lusitania and U-20 - TWoS



RMS Lusitania was an ocean liner that was launched by the Cunard Line in 1906 and held the Blue Riband appellation for the fastest Atlantic crossing in 1908.
It was briefly the world's largest passenger ship until the completion of the Mauretania three months later.
She was sunk on her 202nd trans-Atlantic crossing, on 7 May 1915, by a U-20 11 miles (18 km) off the Old Head of Kinsale, Ireland, killing 1,199 passengers and crew.
51°39'46.56"N, 8°11'51.30"W

SM U-20 was a German Type U-boat built for service in the Imperial German Navy.
She was launched on 18 December 1912, and commissioned on 5 August 1913.
During World War I, she took part in operations around the British Isles.
U-20 became infamous following her sinking of the British ocean liner RMS Lusitania on 7 May 1915, an act that dramatically reshaped the course of World War I.
On 4 November 1916, U-20 grounded on the Danish coast south of Vrist, a little north of Thorsminde after suffering damage to its engines.

[Dönitz78]

Bien, bien Monte d'un niveau avec nous...

Good job, you are not alone, SH5 we are many Russian, French (me) hard work...

I have test all, it's good, not perfect some error but good, (many hours), very good, but it's normal you forget many things. We are enjoy you post your work it's really nice and you are diversity, normally it's a specialist it's for one environnement.

Things get tough in the constricted 30-knot winds Carquinez Strait just off WW II's famed Mare Island submarine Base at Vallejo as this tanker shot proves and this WWII Victory ship:Red Oak Victoty (now a Museum ship in Richmond where it was actually built ) both shot on-the-fly with my ancient Verizon flipphone as my 'eel's arming distance was under 300 yards anyway And if you ever get around to modding a burning Liberty class ship, the warehouse fire at San Francisco' s Fisherman's Wharf directly behind the hastily-rescued D-Day survivor: & museum ship: SS Jeremiah O'Brian should prove illuminating(play on words intended)

Hello, I don't know, but has anyone ever made a real storm in the weather like in SH3?

It can be arranged. I'm currently setting up and testing stormy weather.

Hi OLZS,

because you wrote, we can add "Here you can post your improvements, additions and fixes for this legendary modification.", I will add my own mods for and bases on TWoS.
All my other mods can be used with and without TWoS.





Visible Date of Awards v1.2 for TWoS

This is just a simple mod to make the dates of the award from medals visible in TWoS v2.x.x again and removes yellow border when clicking on the awards.
Very subtle but I missed the date in TWoS.

U-51 + historically correct U-69 for TWoS

With this mod I merged my mods of the tower emblem "Atje and Bambo" from U-51 (Type VIIB) and the historically correct Tower Emblem of U-69* for TWoS.

The tower skin of U-51 is added as a separate skin for type VIIB and the tower skin of U-69 is just a correction of the colors of the 3 flags on both side of the tower. It is also possible to use "Atje and Bambo" from U-51 just as tower emblem.

Why I changed the flag colors of U-69?
The three flags on both sides of U-69 where based on a quote from Götz von Berlichingen and stand for the letters L M A
and is a short form of the German sentence "Leck mich am Arsch". This flag alphabet** was used by the German navy in shipping to exchange messages between ships by means of signal flags
and was not the same flags like the international Code of Signals (INTERCO)**.

*The original texture from U-69 was created by Nozaurio.
**See Documentation folder in download/mod

GSE (GrenSo's Submarine Environment)

This mod was inspired by photos, site visits of submarine, movies and many other existing mods. If you want, you can also see GSE as a kind of small megamod.
This mod was created under using TWoS 2.2.25. GSE is just for TWoS v2.2.25 and above and I cannot guarantee that GSE will work or have no problems and with the stock version of SH5.

Many thanks! All works very well in my TWoS, and with SilentMichal interior enhanced by you, but I have the ethernal problem with "cameras out of sector" in external view. I´m living with it, but I like GSE with SilentMichal...

Best regards.

Yes, that's an annoying bug/error, but unfortunately it came years ago with the first changes to the interior from SteelViking and the original SilentMichal. I haven't found a solution yet.

I have the intuition the problem is in the salamis haging in the CR. Could you delete the salamis and leave all the rest of SilentMichal for test? I´m trying it but I´m not very good with the Goblin Editor...

Many thanks!

Recently, I accidentally came across a map of the cemetery of German U-Boats.
I tried to add boats to the bottom and I succeeded. What do you think: is it worth continuing this work and will it be interesting for the community in principle?
