[REL] R.S.D. - Reworked Submarine Damage

[vdr1981]

v5.1 is up! Now it should (MUST) be OK... Waiting for comments...

@Volodya,
Hang on there buddy, i know how do you feel... If someone can find solution for CTD in this game , that should be you!

@allied forces,
English will be added in the next update...

And also, for those who still experiencing CTD at the start of mare nostrum, best i can do is to give you my modlist (or MEP file), so you can try it, what do you say?

Always good to see a new modlist .. do I need to start a new career when I load 5.1 ?

A bit more testing... So far, occasional SHcollision.act CTD remains together with kernel.dll CTD after heavy fire is taken from fast shooting guns. This could be due to my old PC or SH5 it self..Or probably both. I dont think that RSD is to be blamed and until now this problem was just masked behind submarine's 250HP. I'm looking forward to TDW's return, he will probably know what's going on.

Is it correct that not all damage labels are pointing towards their appropriate location or is this a sign that I have a modconflict ?

R.S.D. v5.1 - destroyable GHG patch:
http://www.mediafire.com/?jxje2vouq6ljox8

It should fix the problem of game crashing to desktop when the GHG hydrophone is destroyed, by replacing te stock dummy sensor with one which got invisible meshes. Based on R.S.D. v5.1 and New UI's 7.4.2. JSGME ready. No other tweak than the ones included in the pack should be needed. Let me know if it works.

NOTE: though being fully compatible with R.E.M, this fix will require a new version of the above mod for it to affect the new hydrophone. I will do the needed changes once we know that the fix itself is working

Brilliant Gap! Now, is this mean that RSD 5.2 is needed where i should remove GHG damage box(uboat sensors.zon) and also set uhydrophonerecivers to destructable=Yes in the zone.cfg?
Dont you think that damage box is to big(in your patch), do you have some reason for that?

Dont get you there, give me a screenshot...

[vdr1981]

And now i'm 100% sure, that SHcollisin.act CTD is related exclusively to fast shooting guns! I've set their trav. and elev tolerances to 0 (gunsradars.sim) so they can't shoot directly without miss all the time and no more CTD's... I think i'll kill little bastards, en least for my use...

I see, this means that you already use some mod for GUI, Nauticawolf maybe? Try to remove it... You see, i implemented only textures from Nauticawolf's mod, slot's layout is default...Got it?

Although , i think that your layout is much better...

no, you don't need to change anything in uboat sensors.zon. With my patch, the old sensor should be ignored by the game (at least in my intentions, hope it works). As for the destructible property of the hydrophone zone, yes, I forgot to switch it to "yes", so you need to edit that setting.

I have just copied/pasted the same box/sphere settings you had previously set for the old sensor

Maybe I am wrong, but I remember having seen similarly misplaced "damage labels" in some of your screenies, Vecko. I don't know exactly how their position is set, but possibly Menu Editor is required to move the around

Tested ...It works!
I'll do necessary changes, inplement this in the main RSD mod, give you the credits, and rename mod to "R.S.D.-Revorked Submarine damage v5.2 by vdr1981/Gap". Is that OK with you? :P

yess!!!

as I had already wrote, this is exactly what I had experienced long ago, during my tests with ship-mounted machine guns. It has nothing to do with your mod.

At last those tolerance settings work for AI guns! Brilliant

You can't imagine how much I and Volodya struggled with them on U-boat Flaks

Guys. now you are nitpicking ...
