What compression program have you used for zipping the files? On my computer 7zip can't open them. Either it doesn't regognize the compression format, or the pack is corrupted. I cleared the browser cache and re-downloaded the file, but got the same result...

winrar...

Okay, now it is a bit late, but I will try again tomorrow with WinRar :up:

Very nice. Waiting it....:Kaleun_Cheers:

@ Vecko

After downloading and installing winrar I could open your files, but I need the fraktur font you used for the TWoS logotype :)

rar format again...

Got it, thanks :up:

new loading screen
 

Hi vecko and gap!
I tried to make my own version that can be used for the loading screen. This is just my suggestion.
My initial idea was to make the "The Wolf of Steel" logo like a metal plate, but I could not find the program that I had and that made this effect.

Torpedo

Hmm, i think this was the best one, needed just some fixes.

Here's my own version:

...and, playing a bit with Torpedo's idea of the metal plate logo, I created a second version:

If you guys tell me which one you like more, and give me your suggestions on any further improvement that might come to your mind, I can provide either of them in dds format and 2048 x 1024 or 1024 x 512 resolution :salute:

Very nice Gap, perhaps a hint of rust to the top of the steel letters.

Les

Both look great Gap, really! :yep: Can't decide which one to use...:doh:

The image has to be in 1024x512 resolution , unfortunately.

Can we see maybe the version with slightly bigger "the wolves of steel" inscription with somewhat less spacing between words and letters? :hmm2:

I like both, red and metal.

BTW, I made my own passing to sepia and old photo effect with PS the original grey of TWoS.

One thing I don't like very much but I live with it is the 5 min. black screen message.

I have high (really high) resolution B/W photos of historical UBoats, digitalized. If you want to try some of them, I can post the images.

Regards.

Fitzcarraldo :salute:

Nice idea. That version might come in handy for use with the "Rusted Glory" mod lol :D

I will see what I can do :up:

Why? Isn't that image being scaled automatically to fit the screen resolution? :hmm2:

:up:

Yes Fitz, upload them please :yeah:

The two versions are very good gap! :D:up:

Uhh.. cant decide too, hmm maybe the silver one because i also like there the SH5 letter style. :hmmm:

Okay, since you are undecided here are two more versions to chose from:

As recommended by vdr1981, I reduced the font spacing making space for a slight increase of TWoS text size, according to fitzcarraldo (dis)liking I removed the shadowed box where the 5 min notice is supposed to be, and I have added a hint of rust to the metal version, as per LesBaker's suggestion.

Waiting for your new feedback now :salute:

It's even better now...:yep: But, I need that shaded area for "black screen" note. I don't like it very much either but it's very needed. I can not reply anymore to "why my game is not loading" noob's questions anymore...:doh:

No problem: I have all the items saved as layers in a psd file; restoring that box is just a click. If you send me the font you used for the notice, I will add it too :up:
