Default Painting your sub black

Is there any way to paint your sub matte black? If so can I have the file name/names I need to change?
thanks in advance
Koon

Beautiful skin. Does it also (like all the other skins I've tried so far) affect my boat's maximum speed ?

No, I'm not. Every time I tried to install a skin, the speed performances of all my uboots decreased dramatically. VIIB was making 4 knots submerged at flank. It's cfg was allright though...

Your not using SH3 Commander 2.6 by any chance? It has Randomised Events - murky scope screen, flank speed cut to half, etc.,

...? Well, if Bernard painted the sub, i'll guess it would increase the drag a bit.....

I have tried every fubar-skin I could get my hands on, and I have had no speed problems. (Vanilla nor GW)


Edit: This thread made me think about the amazing Rolling Stones song "Paint it black"!

Really don;t know what to say...it has happened lots of times to me though. I installed this dark skin however, and it works like a charm. No problems anymore.

You are looking for a black Type XXI??

If so I belive Type941 did a solid black XXI awhile ago that is for download on Terrapins site I think.

Is this what you are looking for?
