Hi Jaxon.
I saw it on a Model on the web so I just put them in.
You can paint over them if you like.
I done the same on the large pens,same can be painted.
Thanks for your comments they are welcomed.
I must say I really like all you work, keep it coming.

Subs for subpens

While I am making some subpens I would like to know what subs are being used, as the stock u boat dont seem to show damage

Thanks got it.
I am testing my subpens. Had to rescale brest subpen it was to high. The only sub I had was the default one, but the scale for that one seems to large now I have seen another one.
I scaled the subpens from 1:1 to 0.75 in the game, really it should be 0.5 well it looks to me I compromised 50.50.
lods kick in early when it ges busy but I think you have to worry about frame rates. tho lod 100 is quite high the 80 and 40 are low. I post some action shot tomorrow.

CFS 2 Scale

Thanks RJ. I'm looking forward to the sub pens and making some scenery with them. They ought to spruce up the Kriegsmarine ports and harbors nicely.

The stock MS CFS 2 library objects all seem to have slightly different scales from time to time. I know that more than a few add on planes were made slightly large to accomodate the larger than life stock weapons that came with CFS 2. Fortunately, most of the add ons now are of proper scale.

One of my most valued modifications to CFS 2 is a .bgl file that scales the stock bombs and rockets to that of the stock planes. If any of you would like to use it, it's attached below. I can't for the life of me remember who made it, but it's been most useful for the stock planes. Just drop it into your SCENEDB > Weapons > Scenery folder. Overwriight after saving your original weapons.bgl file.
 
Robert remember to try to get the roofs of the pens with that remarkable construction that deflected the bomb blasts that made the pens virtually impossible to damage with bombs of that era. Remarkable German engineering.

Good news to hear that the pens are happening..they were such a significant feature of that war. Finally they are possible to see in a sim with Silent Hunter V, you start from a very detailed pen on missoins with moving figures and wholey rendered interiors.
