Hi Rysyonok all art file's when opened can be flipped, so that the ship will be facing in the opposite direction,I use paint.net and it's free to download from the web,it has an option at the top of the program to flip the art or rotate the art,and resize whatever you want,it's all there.Regarding the Italian Liner Conte Verde,if I can get a good photo of her or line drawing then I can add her to the Japanese fleet if you want ?[;)]

Here be the SS CONTE VERDE as requested, I will tidy up the image before she goes public,still abit rough round the edges[:D]

kirk23_MatrixForum · Post by **kirk23_MatrixForum** » Fri Dec 11, 2009 8:07 am

SS CONTE VERDE how she will look in game[;)]

kirk23_MatrixForum · Post by **kirk23_MatrixForum** » Fri Dec 11, 2009 8:40 am

Aces8 the easiest way to add the ship art is this,if you do not want to delete an original art file,and replace it with your new one,what I do is this,if I number my new art that I want to add say JnSide0500 a high number that you know is not in use,place this into the JapShip_Back file in game,remember to repeat the process for the Shil file,as you need both before the ship will appear in game,place the JnShil0500 into the JapShipsShill_transp file found within the games art file.

Now open the editor,and when you look up the ship you want to add the new art for,input the number 0500 into the bit map section of the editor,then if you click on the ship name you are editing,the new art should appear,hope this helps![;)]

The Japanese 9th Division has been spotted landing near Manila. A much needed supply convoy has arrived at Manila bringing 32,500 tons of supply. The supply situation there was beginning to get low but my convoy ran the blockade.

Hellfirejet,
 
thank you

Ace8,
 
One of the weakest points of IJN is its destroyers - there are barely a hundred. How many have been sunk to date?
