Does Anyone Still Play SH2?

[rea00cy]

I have both games too and I play them regularly. Perhaps I'm still playing both after my dissapointment with SH4.

Hi all, I've started SH2 on my 11 years old HP Omnibook XE3 - this game never gets old

SH2 with a few mods such as the one that made the campaign dynamic like and others makes great gameplay. I prefer the Pacific Theatre so i still play Pacific Aces mod for SH2 which is great by the way...one thing i still hate about stock SH2 after all these years are the dam laser guided depth charges . the freaking cans would hit 100% if you would just hover the sub at a certain depth. I remember i had to mod the config files so the DDs would throw the DCs at random depths.

so, anyone up for some SH2 multiplayer, maybe w/ a bit of destroyer command action (I have made my Clemson a bismarck and my trusty Fletcher a Yamato)
I just need to get projekt messwetzer?

You can get Projekt Messerwetzer here in the Downloads section.

How do you make battleships out of destroyers? Curious minds...

I still play it. I want to finish my old campaign, started some years ago...then I'll move to a more modern one.

Sorry for the late reply - I am installing SH II Pacific Aces on Win 7 and I have come to the step that addresses your 'laser DC's' problem.
There is/was a mod to deal with this:
historical_depth_charges_letal_radius_mod_v1.0.zip
- containing:

five files pasted into the PA/sim/systems folder of the PA directory.

DepthChargeJP_60kg.ADF
DepthChargeJP_250kg.ADF
DepthChargeJP_Type1.ADF
DepthChargeJP_Type2.ADF
DepthChargeJP_Type95.ADF

These files change the lethalness of the DC' to more realistic values than the ones used in SH2.

I remember this worked nicely :)

Happy Hunting!
