Haven't got round to reading your thread mush, im late for work so gotta go, but will read it tonight, see what this uberboot tester you mentioned is all about.

So other issues aside it has become apparent that there is a stock
mp bug for deckguns where if you order weapons free
the gunners shoot friend and foe alike.

my plan is to have weapons tight target designation for MP
engagements

with no open fire order in the gun crew orders they should only
engage ships you indicate I hope.

any body with experience at mp got any insights on this.

MM

The Gremlin was thrown overboard!
The new dat is waiting for you.
See your PMs.

Check your PM, all is clear on the Uberfront:up:

Hi all

@Privateer rec'd dat will test after work and distribute tommorow

@RDP glad source of trouble located Happy Hunting

wow nobody came by to tell me off for my dissing the IXD2
on that other thread today.

looks like they all agree then.

MM

The day is not over yet, don't get to confident:nope:

was overconfident didnt defeat radar issue.
:roll:

just why do u not like the IXD2 though, as its not much different than the IXB/C apart from it shape -i dont mind the IXB/C boats will choose them over the VII's, just when the IXD2 turns up i grab it. They have a slightly longer hunting range & using SH3 commander i make my patrols out to the Caribbean area - alot of loan ships to hunt & less destroyers to evade.

And serious answer please no, they're for pussies etc., :lol:

Hard to say best way to do it is try it with a mate in mp have a cargo for target and both head out, then order man the deck gun and see what happens, if ya sink ya mate at least you wont have "wanted dead or alive" over your head. :arrgh!:
But sometimes i found if i manned the deckgun myself fired of a few shots then let the crew take over they would continue firing at the same target, its when that target has sunk and they look for another you have to watch out they will target the next closest target - friend or foe. Keep in mind I haven't played MP for ages so this bug might be fixed.

its not that I dislike IXD2

its that I like to taunt.

all type ix hulls are the same hull in sh3
just whats in em changes.

originally looked at IXd2 for uber basis
but as uber was being beefed up and re equipped
and as IXB was already available for campaign start
I used it instead.

I just love to tease
MM

NO this ones not fixed yet I came across it in several posts this week
which is how I found out about it. as we havent done up the mp nission
yet.

Survey
 

Q: what should be included in Uberboot final.

guns speed and armour obviously.

but I mean is it worth finishing ubercrew
(fully qualified)

is it worth including the elite crew uniforms
that I posted yesterday (crtsy venatore)

What about paint should skins be included
(skins are tough to come by as tower is a custom paintjob)

should all ships and aircraft included in missions be included
to guarantee compatability

I could use ideas and suggestions from those of you
who have uber.

MM

It should have teeth like these P-40's:

:arrgh!:

Althuogh i'd love to have a skin like that for my beloved VIIb, what a hot rod it would be... STEED? Fubar? Please?:D

Get back to you on this Mush:up:

Nice take a look at the SS272 Redfin website.
http://www.ussredfin.com/ss-272/pana...ogalveston.htm

Im trying to put together an interview with Finbacks dad Dean Adams who was a commisioning member of her crew and served aboard Redfin for the Duration of her seven WW2 patrols as a torpedoman including the longest contiguos journey by a sub prior to the advent of nuke boats. Dean was one of the two guys who worked on the paintjob displayed on the webpage. once ive got a bit of it assembled I intend to post it for posterity on the SH4 thread.

MM

Excellent.
Really interesting site. Thanks.:up:

In an aside

am I the only person?

Once you look past its performance issues.

did anybody else think the bell
P39 aircobra was a brilliant design.?

MM

I agree, it was a beauty, and that tricycle landing gear, very modern. Too bad it was so underpowered...
On the other hand my favourite is P-38 Lightning. Beautiful, brave design and very versatile. I love that plane.
:up:
P.s. In Jersey where i live we've got an annual air display. Check this out:

A real Killer and one of the most beautiful aircraft of the war the P38

Any update on Uber 1.3?
