You are welcomed into partecipate in this project

Thank's... Actually , i'm very much interested in this and your work with historical guns specification is very important for realistic submarine damage modeling. Merging those two mods in one large would be great thing for SH5...

If the angle was set to high? You'd get a Snow effect from the shells raining back down once in a Blue Moon!


We found Real Life settings did not work in SH3 and had to lower the specs a tad.

I remember you talking about this problem you had while working on GWX. Honestly I didn't test if the same would happen in SH5, but for sure it is worth a try. Beside barrel's maximum elevation angle, maximum gun range/angle might play a role. Do you remember if you had played with those settings too?

Merging the two mods would be an honour, though there is not much to merge at this time (most of the features I had originally planned are still in my mind ). As a matter of fact, I was going to add your mod to the list of mods supported/required.

P.S: have you tested this mod? Though having been posted in Fifi's Mod Compilation thread, it is part of the HGS project (again my bad... )

Duh, V2 updated...i screwed up upc files path...now is OK...

Thanks vdr1981 for this great mod!
Keep up the good work mate

Just one question, if you can tell what did you do to change the sub armor at the bottom? is that in Zones.cfg?

[vdr1981]

No, it's one damage box with armor thickness of 1000cm at the bottom of the sub, sub's .zon file, currently only type VIIb i think. I saw this trick from RFB and OM files from SH4 but in SH5 it doesn't work as i expected... I need some more testing on this one...

100 cm of armor?!

from your screenie I see you have it set to 500 though. Beware that, unless set to negative values, boxes' AP setting overseeds the AP setting of their relative zone.

A value of -1 means the same armor as the one set for the zone definition specified; -2 means twice the armor of the zone specified, and so on. Negative values set in zone definitions work the same way, and they are relative to the AP value of the closest parent object which got a damage zone.

Ok vdr1981 thanks for the info and the pic!
I was doing some experiments with sub's armor so it can stay at bottom but it's not very realistic.
It will be interesting to see how this great mod turns out in the end!
