I see what you mean by refined now. Yet oxide does not equal rust. Rust is just a common term and is misleading.

My bet is on magnetite Fe3O4 (iron (II,III) oxide).

Conclusions
[...]Magnetite proved the best absorber of electromagnetic waves in the single frequency that was tested. Hematite* had some microwave absorbing properties but not as good as magnetite.

*Hematite is the red iron oxide.

I agree but we are getting in to that secret squirle, spy-vs-spy area and information on the subject fades away.
Heck, some recipe's for baking coockies are top secret.

NOTE: I changed my opinion on using Magnetite. Magnetite would self align but it would align to opposing magnetic poles, basically cancling itself out inhibiting the ability to polorize the layer pole alignment all in the same direction. Although, if the layer was exposed to a even stronger magnetic field during the curing process, it may be possible to get a fairly good +/+ -/- pole alignment. This would also force the magnetite to evenly distribute as apposing poles attrack to each other and same pole repulse each other. So I may not change my opinion after all but I just don't know enough on the sugject to really make a determination either way.

For a second, I thought I was back in chemistry class.

I see you removed some of the effects using the temples.

Where the Template I made of any use to you?
Do you think they would be useful for someone lerning how to edit /create new images?

thanks!

You're asking the wrong person because I'm by no means a modder.
I just wanted the rusty look and used the structure and conning files which you already had in the folder I downloaded. If I was to add the Template you speak of then you'd have to explain to me how to do it but no worries.. I love the rusted look.

I am currently working on a new fairly clean Alberich skin for the Type-VIIC/41
I am also documenting how to get a sensor upgrade from Uboat_Sensors.sim to list as a Upgrade Pack. Then to actually be displayed on the boat if the Upgrade Pack is installed on the boat. If you are interested, please see, read, use, add too my new [TEC]Adding Upgrade Packs post.

Yeah, I thought about editing the Upgade Packs file too, which is no big deal for me. A solution I didn't think about when I wrote that comment.

Thanks Beast!

Conning Tower only has sample texture on it. So not really started yet
The Deck needs some clean up.
Structure is almost done.
Saddle Tanks and lower Body still need some touchup work.
