Default Type 7A for SH3?

Has anyone done this?

Yes, Wreford-Brown did. It doesn't look like a VIIa though, it just acts like one.

SH3 version: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=1871

Commander version, which changes automatically to a VIIb on March 11, 1940.

So there's no 3D modeled version then?
I would have suspected that would have been converted from SH5's models.

Nope. Not that I've seen, anyway.

Rowi converted the SH5 model, as an AI boat:

It's included in the newer versions of Rowi's CCoM mod.

Ah, thanks. I'll contact him about doing a player version.
I'd suspect he'd have no problem with me useing his files.

@ Jeff-Groves

That would be great ... Typ VIIA, ... "Olé" for you (as we say in Spain). It would be wonderful to see a playable version. SH3 is alive more than ever

GWX had a VII-A for SH4 but there's a problem built into SH4.
SH4 does not 'launch' torps like SH3 does. They fell through the sub if the tube was above the water line.


In SH3 they'll launch as they should as proven with the Schnell Boot Mod.


I may need to re-install SH5 just to get all the parts needed for a nice player version. Extracting what I want is not a problem.

I sent a PM to rowi asking permission to use his files if needed.
Of course I'll credit him even if I don't use his files.
Pardon me if I don't credit privateer.

My good friend Rowi is OK with using his work if needed.


I've still got some programs to re-install before the real work starts.
I need a project to take my mind off of recent events.

I seem to remember Someone else attempted this back when SH5 was first on the table But in that day he was told it would be bad form to convert anything over from SH5 and it may also breach copyrights but it should be OK now shouldn't it

(it was the interior of the sub files I think as well)
