I am working on the ixb_ai unit re-import from shIII (sorry, the hull from sh4 is a hull from ixd not ixb, and after extencive research - they are different). It's just a pain to allign everything nicely. With this one: I'll see what is going on with the draft. If someone could test and see how it looks in game - I would appreciate. The reason I'm asking, because the draft has been changed in sim file, the mass has been adjusted (though it has been causing me issues when I managed to put accidentally 1500t instead of 1.5t in the mass - the boat would just not render in game at all), but the waives vs size of the boat making it hard to predict what would be too much. |

primary: draft secondary: mass, surfaced/submerged displacement I'm hoping that it can be perfected with just fixing the draft. If I remember correctly (i'm at work atm) it is set to 0.4m at the moment. The problem that I am having with the game files is an annoyance, that I will see different values between cfg file and .sim file of many units - and I don't know how that affects exactly those units in the game. Same is happening with this particular unit: the cfg file has been updated with historical values. The actual weight of the boat from the historical page, which I'll post in about 2-3 hours (at work and can't seem to find it). |

Since you insist I will tell you in short: I have noticed that SH5 uses the same meshes as antenna of various radar warning receivers devices, which actually had the most various shapes. I was wondering if you could have replaced the old meshes with new, more accurate ones, if I provide you with pictures of the real antennas. That's all |

ooooooh!! This could be a very interesting work. I can promis that I will try. I'll explain why: I learn 3d modeling on my own, with no background. I bet that more experienced people would have done even the lifeboat better then I did. But I'm enjoying it and that is why I have released this mod: the more feedback I get, the better I will become in the future - which I am excited about. My next, very big and very very very SIDE project right now is to build IX b/c from scratch (as I mentioned before, the SH3/SH4 models I'm just not happy with, as they are not as nice as model of VII). So, if I have a chance to practice on making smaller detailed things - I will be very very happy! |
