My pleasure mate!

It is called Mehr Traffic, Nationen und Schiffe and it contains quite a big selection of ships imported from stock SHIV as well as from some popular mega-mods for SHIII and IV. Unfortunately the mod lacked the popularity it deserved due to the fact that for some reason it crashed the game if enabled in conjunction with TDW's UI. Perhaps both mods are too "heavy" to be handled by the game or, who knows, some other type of conflict.

Yep, but I don't get quite follow you. Didn't you say that you had a problem with textures?

If you like, you can add one more ship to your total: it is the Nippon ("Kawasaki") type fleet oiler which I imported looong ago from SHIV and never released. It was my hope porting her, together with other units, to the GR2 format, but as usual my projects take way too long. The ship could make a good replacement for British Wave-class replenishment oiler.
If you don't have objections we can add her to TWoS while we wait for a general revamp of the dat units imported so far in game.

Here's a screenshot of the imported unit (GR2 armaments rendered black in game, later replaced with dat ones):

Ouch..I'm aware of that mod and I'm not so impressed with it...The mod contains bunch of ugly looking ships with stock textures and it will largely destabilize even stock game, not to mention game stability with OHII and NewUIs on board, it's CTD fest. Some ships are even duplicated (like T3 tanker ) .

Well, I'm satisfied with the look of two imported freighters but medium tanker looks kind a dull...I'll send you my work so you can revise it...

Yes, I'm aware of that thread (of course) and I have always wondered why we can see SV and Uekel's imported ships in OHII but not your tanker which looks quite OK ?
If everything is OK with it we can add it, why not...Did you make all necessary changes in sim, val, zon, and dat files?

PS
Stand by for new ships upload...

Yes indeed, MTNS isn't the most bug free mod, quite the opposite, but I guess converting all of the units it conatins within a reasonable time wasn't an easy task for one person

Which one? I have just downloaded your pack. The problem might be caused by a missing ambient occlusion map, wrong reflection map, or wrong material settings

When the dat unit conversion method was discovered, the focus was especially on small/medium size merchants, scarcely represented in stock game. The Japanese tanker was more a personal experiment than else.

I has been a long time since when I worked on that unit. I don't remember exactly which files I edited, but I think everything was okay. You can have a look by yourself:

You can start playing with that model while I clear up the mod, delete unneded files, and optimize it for inclusion in TWoS

Hi

Thank to You all. I've installed my old sh5 with WoS and it;s working, ohhh it is so goood!

But there is one thing, mouse is "jumping", it is not fluent (sory for my english). I can play with that but it is annoying - especcially in critical battle moments when you have to hurry
I am afraid it is my graphic card. I have got Intel(R) HD Graphic - is it a little bit to small? Should I get a better card?

Thanks and regards
Martin
