My bad, readme:

If you don't have GIEP, or prefer to manually install the picture, extract the files, choose the one you want, rename it to "picture.tga" then copy/move it to the Data\CaptainPicture folder. Before changing the picture, you may wish to copy the original someplace so you can restore it.

Thats all ya need to do.

Perhaps a small mod that accepts a photo?

The guts of what I'm asking are probably right here, just need to know how to do it. Can anyone offer any help / tips / point in the right direction?

Many thanks!

Just take the image and resize it to 512x626. If doesn't go down, or up, to that exact size, you will either have to crop the excess or add padding to it to get to those diminsions. Then save it as a TGA file called "picture.tga" and put it in the CaptainPicture folder of your SH4 install.

Wow! Those are good photos, not my type of thing but great work anyways.

The thumbnails are now available for viewing before you download the file. My ISP gives me 100MB of space for my personal web site, and since I haven't even used a tenth of it I decided to put the thumbnails there instead of using one of those image hosting sites. So now you can see what you'll be getting without having to download the file first.

remind me again, which section has the baywatch girls

keep up the good work fred, sh5 is supposed to be a very simular file structure so its very likely we'll be able to adapt most non AI related sh4 mods for uboats in sh5

I started to say none, since silicone wasn't in use back then. But then I remembered my Shannan Leigh set.

Won't matter to me if it's U-boats only, as I'll never play it. Now if some kind of Pacific Aces deal comes along though...

I never had a Catherine Bell set. After the first three sets, I limited myself to wartime actresses and artists. Only exception was the Bettie Page set, which was sort of by popular demand as well a tribute following her death.

As for the women in uniform, that's a great idea. I almost picked one of the two Mynra Loy pics with her in a uniform for the thumbnail here. But I just liked the one I ended up using too much.

Not even a WAVE...

And to top it all off, he's not even an officer!!

My question to UBI is, "What's up with that???"

Really though, I thought it might make a nice change of pace. And also allow some "hero worship" as it were.

Well a relative? Brother, cousin, nephew?

A special "friend"

(Against regs mind you "don't ask don't tell")

Anyway this looks awesome! Will download when I get home, and thanks for your radio mods as well, downloaded a few managed to install Radio Tokyo good stuff man! Adds so much immersion!
