The pic above seems to hint that it was not black. Oh, and the texture is quite three-dimensional, so it will require extensive bump mapping to be accurate. |
I never found any article stating it was exclusively used on snorkles. Almost all the articles I read stated it was mainly used on snorkles.
As a side not. I managed to make the Imp Alberich, Tarnmatte and Imp Tarnmatte available as upgrade packs in port. I am running with the Imp Tarnmatte now and it appears to work. When using External View submerge and I get right next to the boat, I can not here the boat at Minimum or Slow Speed but when I go to Half Speed I start hearing the boat like I did before the upgrade when the boat was at Minimum Speed.
As for changing the Snorkle Texture, not sure if I can since the Tarnmatte also changes the shape.
