I would think only loading times would be affected.
Say you have 100 ships with 10 SHD-objects.
That's 1000 things that need checked and then ignored?
What if they are not ignored but loaded into memory?
And what about those 1000 ID's?
Take a Unit and copy that ID for one of it's SHD- node and use it elsewhere.
Does it crash?

I kind of recall some posts about it.
Using a modded torp to recreate the mines?
Moving the launch points of torps is quite easy with S3D now days.

yes this sounds like it. I do believe the other issues were working it into actually having missions where you would go lay mines and such as they did back then. but as I stated before. if your interested in making it that would be cool. if not its cool too. I was just wondering.

Spent a long 2 weeks out on the road working.
Today I'm getting the last parts imported and placed.
Rear inner torpedo door is in place and the animation corrected.
Rear Outer door is in process now.

Here's an early shot with all but the front torpedo doors adjusted. The rear door animations are done.


There's some UV work to do and all the Nodes for where torpedo's/bubbles/sounds/wakes/blah blah blah spawn not to mention the Turm yet.


All the holes in the hull are real so if someone wants to add the water effects stuff feel free as I'd never get around to it myself.

Once I get a few more things adjusted I'll put up an early version you can check out.

It'll have a lot of things out of place and such but you still get to fire the neat rear tube.


Fraps video of rear torpedo doors going up to YouTube now.

Video Uploaded.



Here's an early test version you can Download.

https://www.mediafire.com/?lk79guewcukiddq

Front outer Torpedo doors not imported nor adjusted.

Also a lot of stuff to do yet but it's enuff to see the potential.
I've only tested in a single mission with the 1939 VIIB, Airship Escort.
