I'm glad it's to your liking. Must say I'm a little honored, just because I could contribute something.

Really does give some nice contrast in the dark. But those frickin lines... I tend to agree they're rendered by the engine itself without calling any resources, but maybe there's an entry somewhere to control it non the less.

the left hand scale and the upper one don't bother me, it's the central green crosshairs that do..

Aye... you could at least control the color by drawing the lines yourself. Maybe black would be less obtrusive.

Default I-52 3d model



I-52, code-named Momi (樅, Japanese for "evergreen" or "fir tree")

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanes...-52_%281943%29



Miner1436
made a trade with James Dziadulewicz , the model builder who made it in 1999... and got us his I-52 3d model !

so we'll get yet another sub in campaign in a little while !

but it'll need some work : many separate pieces...

BRAVO MINER !!!!!!

Default I-52 model pictures


lots of pieces to weld




respective sizes : Sen Toku (122 m) and I-52 (108 m)


















This class of submarines was designed and built by Mitsubishi Corporation, between 1943 and 1944, as cargo carriers. They were quite long and carried a crew of up to 94. They also had a long cruising range at a speed of 12 knots (22 km/h). The Japanese constructed only three of these submarines during World War II (I-52, I-53 and I-55), although twenty were planned [1]. They were the largest submarines ever built at that time, and were known as the most advanced Japanese submarines of their time.
The keel of I-52 was laid on 18 March 1942, and she was commissioned on 28 December 1943 into the 11th submarine squadron. After training in Japan she was selected for a Yanagi (exchange) mission to Germany.

recording of the sinking of I-52 :

"bomb bay doors open ...

make sure your switch is on torpedo..

oh that's right that's not bomb now that's correct...

you hear that little croaking sound ?...

spring ? shaft or something ?...

we're ready now.. ok we're approacing ..

his rmp is about 58 times 4 .........

there he goes again...

-lots of pinging and wave noise thoughout-

okay let's throw it ..


ooh we got that son of a bitch !!

he's still going however that sounded like one hell of an explosion about one minute ago did you hear all that ?

yeah I'm positive that's what it was...

Very nice work, cant wait to give this mod a run.

Question/suggestion/comment


Any plans to incorporate and interior free cam, such as the one TMO uses? Would be cool to not be stuck in one position as in stock, just a humble suggestion.Keep up the great work.

Very good model of I-52.
Here is a website about I-52: http://www.operationrisingsun.com/

By the way, Wikipedia have a wrong photo of I-52: this is I-52 of Kaidai-2 type, which was renumbered as I-152 and used only as training ship.

Default US postwar report on inspection of IJN TDC

Not sure if you guys have this and I confess to not having read all 25 pages of this thread but I stumbled upon this a short while ago.

http://www.fischer-tropsch.org/prima...ort%20O-32.pdf

The Kuib mod on the ATO board got me thinking that someone might want to have a crack at reproducing the IJN fire control.

Hope this helps

I don't understand why the I-52 class is a C3 and not C2, I-52 was completed and commissioned before any of the C2's were.

PS: Keltos, did you get those messages about new sub info?
