i really shouldn't be showing this right now, but seeing it's been a while since my last bit of news... here's two ingame test shots of the interior of the Gato/Balao sub...
they're work in progress shots... still a bit to do, but i'm gonna show em anyways...
this looks like it's gonna be it... and though there are a few minor changes (the aux helm instruments for example) and additions (the echo sounder in the center of the con) to be made, this is close to what the first one is gonna look like...
bumpmapping and some of the more exotic graphic stuff is gonna be left out of the first one... to much for me to do, and too much for some machines to handle comfortably...
hey, it's not perfect... but it comes close enough to the interior of a real WWII and Post War era sub, to make you feel right at home at 200 feet... besides, it's as close as i can come right now without spending another 6 months tweaking it...
oh, and don't pay too much attention to the floor... that texture in there is a place holder from one of my favorite games
more news soon...
