The White stripes were for ID, so that friendly aircraft would not attack them (makes no sense unless they stuck around homewaters

) and the boxed in triangle i think was a marker for the fleet flagship (I-9, I-10 I-11 were sub fleet flagships) so only the Jyunsen A had them not the B

I made a new texture for the tower using 2048x2048 resolution for the imbedded tga file, so the new .dat is a bit heavy but I hope it will be worth it ingame, I got tired of the blurry texture.

Just download the new tower.dat, slip it into the object directory of the version 2.8 mod, and voilà !

ingame picture will be posted tonight.

something like :

Nice, but i think it should be a bit shorter

also can the range finder be brought a bit down? in the pic the base of the rangefinder is about level with the height of the walls of the tub

keltos01 · 10-21-08, 12:47 PM

tha's because it's lowered ! otherwise the range finder sticks out more, like in the model.

I'll move the storage stuff a bit more down then, but I don't know when I'll redo the iv map for the tower :

I'd like help to be able to add a node containing the storage locker's 3d model and its texture, so as to to have to remake the whole UV map of the tower everytime I add or modify something, cause that last one took me a whole day's worth !

Here goes the latest version of the tower with the 2048 x 2048 texture (much better btw !) :

The sub :

the tower :

the driver :

the tub looking towards the stern :

the tower from the starn to starboard :

the ship from the stern to starboard :

2048 is the way to go !

now all we need is the hull done at the same resolution !

btw I also changed the ships names they now range from I-25 to I-33, no more U-whatever !

link to the tower (to be installed in the Object directory of the Jyunsen B version 2.8 mod, full 2.8 will be uploaded in a few minutes) :

check if the red hull goes high enough on your skin : it should go to the water level, and feel free to post pictures of your WIP and the textures you found, maybe post a .rar with those.

btw I just ordered I-boat captain

keltos01 · 10-22-08, 09:22 AM

I'm making a new UV map for the hull... with folded and bigger parts so as to increase details, will post later tonight. You'll just need to fill it with beautiful textures Sledgehammer427 !

keltos01 · 10-22-08, 09:59 AM

New Hull UV map for Jyunsen B :

t01.dds to be redone

off course for this picture I didn't change the .dds file from the last one, it still has to be redone

your gonna keep on reading it over and over... like me haha

remember now the Jyunsen B were from the I-15 to the I-36

keltos01 · 10-22-08, 02:45 PM

I'm still waiting for a better job than this from Sledgehammer427, this is considered basic texture only

under :

stern :

tower :

top stern :

I think the textures are a bit dark, and that the tower's outside needs retexturing with the same texture as the upper hull so as to make it whole ?

I will now make a new occlusion map for the hull.

here it goes :

and yes I think I'll read I-boat Captain a few times when I do get it !

Keltos

keltos01 · 10-22-08, 03:45 PM

there it goes, took long enough cooking by 3ds !

and from the bow :

I'll upload the latest version now. Now it's up to Sledgehammer427 to improve the textures !

I edited the first post with new info and pictures.
