Custom flag?
I'm running TWOS 2.2.25.
I see there is a german flag and a skull flag flying on my uboat. Can the skull flag be customized? What is its significance? Thanks, Steve |

Not in game perhaps but you can always edit the texture. As for significance, it's weird - I tried to Google it but besides U-189 which used pirate flag as their conning tower emblem they don't seem to have been used by U-boats? They were a common symbol for Royal Navy submarines (mocking derogatory comments by senior naval officers towards first submarines as being ungentelmanly weapon whose crews should be hanged as pirates).

Can't check at the moment which file was that but I'll find it when I get back home and to my own pc.

Is there a way to remove the lower flag completely?, looking at photos from several books shows not one boat flying a flag under the kreigsmarine flag.
Edit I found it, it was in the eqp file found in the submarine folder. I edited the nss_Uboat7b.eqp, just went to turm mount sub flags and set deck 3 flg startdate to 1945 like it said in file. Last edited by Chronus; 02-17-23 at 01:46 AM. |
