Please, search in the roster the list of boats, Class Balao for instance (if Drum is Balao, I think it isn´t) or the class of your sub, and delete all the boats except the Drum. Put the number one for the Drum, and you will have ever the Drum when select/promoted to Balao Class sub. This is my SS Balao config in TMO 21: [UnitClass] ClassName=SSBalao UnitType=200 AppearanceDate=19430101 DisappearanceDate=19750612 DisplayName=US Balao [Texture 1] TextureName=data/Submarine/NSS_Balao/NSS_Balao_T01.tga LightmapTextureName=data/Submarine/NSS_Balao/NSS_Balao_O01.tga StartDate=19380101 EndDate=19440504 Frequency=1 [Texture 2] TextureName=data/Submarine/NSS_Balao/NSS_Balao_T02.tga LightmapTextureName=data/Submarine/NSS_Balao/NSS_Balao_O01.tga StartDate=19440505 EndDate=19990711 Frequency=1 [Unit 1] Name=USS Pampanito (SS-383) DOC=19430101 DOD=19460820 ;************ The End ************ I have only Pampanito when play with Balao Class. The file is in your SH4 folder\data\roster\american\submarine\SSBalao.cfg Observe I put Unit 1 to the Pampanito, and I delete all the other subs names. Also, I changed the dates for availability.

Huh? No, the USS Drum was a Gato class sub. My initial question was if anyone knew of anything like this still running. I now have the USS Balao, lead ship of the Balao class. Would you happen to know how to place a battle flag on the sub itself? I cant for the life of me figure it out. Tbh, after spending about 5 hours trying to figure this out, I have no idea whats going on anymore lmao
Oh and the USS Drum is in the game.......I meant to say something else but my head hurts lmao |

I use GIMP (http://www.gimp.org/) to put battle flags and emblems on sub sides. You have to work with this image : NSS_BalaoTower_TO2A.dds. Found in Data-Textures-TNormal-tex. What you put on the Starboard side will mirror image on the Port side. Most numbers and letters there will be backward.

Then with Gimp I should be able to edit the sample image to add Kill Flags and numbers without a mirror effect. Is this right?

Hi, I place my own emblems/ killflags with Gimp using Data/Textures/Tnormal/tex/NSS_BoattypeTower_T01 & T02 dds files, convert to .tga, add markings, save as .dds, remembering to place in any corresponding paths of super-mods, i.e RFB, TMO, FOTRS. Of course using this method is slightly long winded and results in mirrored conflicts on the port side, ok if you don't place boat No. There is a mod: TheBeastBelow_Exhaust_DecalPak_SH4_v1.5
which overcomes that problem but is somewhat confusing in it's instructions, (well is for me anyway). Good luck and bring back Killflags mod someone. Regards, H.T. |

thanks everyone, I will try and see if I can attach the battle flag. So the only way the battle flag will work is with TMO? Oh and I made my battle flag using paint.net and images I found off google. Hope this helps anyone

"I used some time ago the BeastBelow mod, but the emblems reflected in the interior side of the bridge in TMO..." Have not used TMO only RFB, I believe TMO had its own utility for placing emblems/Killflags, see this tutorial : regards, H.T. |
