Updated Gato class sub

[PSULLYKEYS]

Tango Romeo has come through and revised the VN Gato, which was not multi LOD. The new version now is, and should work fine.

Lord knows I pestered him enough to have a brood for my almost ready tender.

You can get it at Simviation in the new files:

There is a submerged version and some other files!

Thanks TR!:salute:

There's a very, very nice I-88 on SimV, CFS2, Misc, Page 5...very nice, indeed. And there is also a beautiful Type VII uboat.

Thanks, Nole! :salute::ernae:

Thanks for the heads-up, Sully! :ernae:

Many Thanks!

Man, when it rains, it pours. TR has two more subs up at SimV, a Balao and a Tench. The Balao has fantastic FPS, while the more detailed (best of the batch) Tench still sports very nice FPS.

The "Silent Service" has never looked so good in digits.

Just was over at Simviation and TR has just posted two new American subs. A Trench and a Balaro. He and Psulleykeys strike again! See them here; http://simviation.com/1/browse-CFS2+-3-0

This shot from the SimV forum makes it look like he's still 'tweaking'.

Wow, that reminds me of the good times with SH2 in the Pacific. They look terrific!:salute:

Haha - you mean SH1, right? 2 and 3 were U-Boats. I was going to post an SH4 screenshot! The CFS2 version compares very favorably!

Now there's SH4 (Pacific Fleet Boats) and SH5 (Back to U-Boats)

Well, not really. It was SH2.

Silent Hunter 2 was a bit like CFS2: you could turn it into whatever you wanted. There were full mods for the Pacific (US Silent Service) and for the Mediterranean (Italian and UK ships). You could even be a Soviet commander in the Black Sea, or Finnish in the Leningrad area.

Then came SH3-4-5, which were not meant for me. Those games started to become too complicated, with crew management and heavy CPU requirements. I sticked to SH2 until my new computer couldn't handle the graphics (just two or three years ago actually).

I still keep it in my computer and try it every time a new driver for my graphic card is released. Hopefully some day it will work again. It happened with Fighting Steel, another good oldie, so...

Why is one of them shooting at me. No problems with the Balao or the Trench as Ship or Infrastructure, but the Gato infastructure boat lights up red ( on tactical Display ) as an enemy and shoots at me.

Otherwise, the boats look great the the framerates are a big improvement.

You probably ought to ask TR over at the SimV forum, but: The nationality of the Gato in the MISC section of the DP is set to Japanese (4). Download the Alternate Files for the Gato at SimV(texture and DP) and replace the originals with the new ones and she will be a US sub again. OR you can just open the DP and change the nationality from 4 to 3. (Don't forget to delete the CDP after replacing or changing the DP.)

That seems easy. I'll advise TR and thanks for the spiffy responce.
