Well they are named but I can't unzip them to the file because they don't have the proper file names such as JnSide0098 etc. renaming them all to the proper ship name would be easier [8D]

Hi Aces8 the Japanese Merchantships are named as a ship type,and not individual class by type,ie AK,AV,AR,AP etc,to transfer the art file to the game,all you do is copy and paste from the download to inside the JapShip_back art file,then if you right click on the new art work,you get an option to rename it to what ever you want,JnSide0098 for example.If you get a message that say JnSide0098 is already in use,do you want to rename to copy2 ?All you do is delete the original art JnSide0098,then rename your new art to JnSide0098,and if by magic your new ship is in game.An easier method is if you rename the new art first, before transfering to the JapShip_Back in game file,then when the program ask you, just copy and replace original art.[:'(]

I did not make the art files the same as were already in game,because different gamers might have changed the art from the stock version already,to something else,adding the German,Italians etc is easy because they are not in game already,you can number them whatever you want,all you have to do in the editor is match the bitmap number to the ship class and it will find and match it to your class of ship.

ah ok [:)]

Sorry but there is no easier way I don't think,I personally am trying to alter all my ship classes better,I'm leaving all the Japanese at the low numbers in the database,but I'm listing all the new ship classes German High Seas Fleet and Italians to the bottom half of the database.

Recent ship request SS CONTE VERDE Ocean Liner Japanese Troopship maybe?[;)]

I have done a remake for personal reason off HMS Hood[:(] I lost a relative when she was sunk

And this ship and many others can be found here:

http://www.filefront.com/15109865/auxpack.zip

This pack features the auxiliary ships you have seen here, along with the beautiful liners that will be not long for this world in your next WPO game.

Hi Tex thanks again for the latest additions download,I had never heard off the Conte Verde,and now she is a Japanese troopship,life is strange at least in the world of War Plan Orange[:D]

Maybe the Flying Dutchman isn´t on the too far distant horizon [:)]

I could add the Flying Dutchman if you want[:D]

Yabbydabbydooo Matrix web site is back[;)]

Just because I'm busy trying to covert War Plan Orange to make it usable via WITP Admirals edition,don't mean I have stopped doing art work,far from it I have only just begun[:)]

You are multi-talented Graham [&o]

I intend to add every single Pre-dreadnought,dreadnought,cruiser,detroyer ever built into the Admirals edition editor,with a time period dating from 1880-1932,all with updated art work.[;)]

Plus all new aircraft art work[;)]

Possible addition to the Japanese airfleet recon first version of a Zepplen[;)]

New British Pre-Dreadnought Lord Nelson class[;)]

Hi Graham, about that Zeppelin, have you done the alpha for it? I have a Shenandoah that I put into my game. The back looks great but the alpha is alwful. Any tips?

Hi Tex I will make you Zeppelin art,and send it to you.

Thanks Graham, you are like Santa Claus!
