A total overhaul mod which strives to bring about a more realistic tone to the game. Completely reworking gunnery, replacing the stock models with high fidelity ones, and adding numerous aircraft & vessels take this game to a whole other level.

It's been a while since I've posted one of these.
I know that I've been less attentive than I should have been and I'm sorry about that. When I started this mod I didn't expect it to reach the scope it has and when I started to realize what I was going to be able to do with it I was really excited; this being the first real foray into this type of project.
Unfortunately life rarely goes as you expect. Other work comes up, as do other responsibilities, and some of what you were working on ends up pushed to the side. Often times the more you take on, and the longer you work on something, the more it becomes 'just another task'.
These last few years have been hard on my family and I as I'm sure it's been on most of you. At the beginning of the year I was looking forward to things improving but then I lost a very close family member and I found myself with even more on my plate.
I wish I had better news for you, that I could say I was almost ready to release another model pack but this isn't the case. The mod is fairly low on my list of priorities at the moment and while I get some work in on it now and then I don't have the time or energy for it that I once did. I hope on one day finishing it but at this time I can't honestly say when that will be.
I'm sorry I don't have better news for all of you and for the disappointment I'm sure this must be.

it won't let me import the weapon stats
did you download 3.4.6? If so maybe try again in case its corrupted, I didn't have a problem loading it. What does the error say exactly?
When I try to load the mod it says I'm missing something but the text is too big to read and it gets cut off. How do I fix this?
can you try to increase the resolution so you can see more?
Any updates on progress? Last article was from 21. I just want to know the progress as this mod is fantastic and I have high hopes for this mod's quality.
I'm still working on it but it's going slowly. I'll get a new article posted in a few days explaining some of what's been going on.
Take your time man. From what I know you're the only person creating such a fantastic mod for this game, and your doing a bloody good job. Best wishes to you and your family.
How do you install the mod?
take the unzipped folder and place it into this location:
C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Local\Evil Twin Artworks\Victory At Sea Pacific\Mods\
Then it will show up on the MOD page you access from the main game menu.
So under that MOD directory you will have 1 folder:
SpecTRe's Improved Realism
and inside that will be all the CSV files and XML files and 3 folders ,aircraftsprites,shipsprites,assetbundles.
I love the improvements added so far. I cannot wait for the IJN ships to get improved models as I love their ship design and naval history. Keep up the fantastic work!
