That's right, there will be submarines in the campaign.

Thanks to Col. Gibbon's textures and a little 3dz fiddling by me we will include them in the campaign. You might fine them sneaking down "the Slot" over by Guadalcanal or stalking enemy fleets out in the wide ocean.



Along with the addition of the torpedo, carrier landing routines and Moggy's carriers this is turning out to be more like PAW II than a New Guinea upgrade.

OK Ray.

How did you fix the model?

Ah, well, I didn't.

I used your excellent textures and built a sub out of a tanker. Not quite as detailed as your model but plenty good enough for a target.

Finally, after years of flying up and down the Channel...searching
We learn that the EAW Sub was hiding in 'The Slot' of Guadalcanal all this time neaner

Hi Ray.

Just what is the point of me making a proper sub 3dz, which OK needed fixing from an RS point of view, just so you could bodge a sub out of my texture, and a ship model?

I was trying to move this community away from the old habits, but you are doing a masterful job of undermining that approach. banghead

Hmmmm. looks very simmilar as to the subs which were incorporated into PTIII 5 years ago.
A very nice model though, we now have two subs, smile
I think Moggy also had subs in Dunkirk, that would make it 3 subs.

VB,

Where could I get your sub without downloading the entire Pac Tide?

Maybe I could use it in NG.
