Sailor Steve, I'm very happy to know the info I provided was such a big help and has gotten you started on modeling.
Maybe you can create a VIID U-boat model and privateer could add the nodes and whatnot to make it a playable boat complete with working mine launchers.
privateer, do you know of anything, up to and including blackmail, that we could use to have Thunder post tutorials?
Your own modeling work on that helicopter was very well done, IMHO.
I still wouldn't mind seeing a few "How-To" threads from your impressive mental library of modding knowledge.
I think I'll paste the info from my above post into the sticky for the Mods and Utilities, in hopes that it will make the big list.
