When I played SH2 I would alter the subs conning tower art just to give my boat that personal touch however you couldn't get in close enough to really see it all that well.
With E.R.T. it would be awesome if we could each have our own graphics and boat numbers.
This would allow us to be able to identify exactly who we're sinkingor by some strange turn of events, who sunk us!
It would be neat to keep a spreadsheet of past battles and the outcome between yourself and other skippers.
Depending on how anal you wanted to get you could even include specific tendencies of a specific Capt.
The surface ships would each have their own bow numbers until I put a hole in'em.
If this is at all possible I think it would add a totally new aspect to the game.
If so, this is what I'd like my boat to have:
FEAR THE HAMMER
Just a thought.
They are actually working on the concept
OK OK you wait I'll think of something that hasn't been though of yet!
Damn, I can see this game is about to become a way of life for me... heh, I guess it already has, and I don't even have the full version yet.
Have you looked down inside your player directory where you installed Enigma? Thar be mission logs there.
We may do a feature patch for the singleplayer that allows you to do those types of things. The Christmas edition will definitely do it. Multiplayer will also.
Hmmm.
All I see there East is the reults of my past missions.
I'm not sure as to how this pertains to this question.
I've tried to muck around with the models and texture filesbut I can see that the EZV file extensions must be the most closely guarded trade secret of the gaming universe!
And rightly so.
I've been to Alluminum Cloud's page and studied his method of skinning and find it absolutely addictive.
Between PhotoShop & PhotoImpact I've created skins mainly used in European Air War but I gotta tell ya the first time I saw a PBY fly over my sub in ERT I felt a rush come over me that rivaled great sex!!
The detail even at a high speed fly over showed me that this was going to be the future of skinning.
The skinning you see on the PBY is Howard's own design. You'll find it even more gratifying than Aluminum Cloud - which is fantastic.
