Default How to make the Exocet hit its target better in FC

Before we start backup the db folder in Fleet Command main directory, also you will need the Fleet Command DB editor to try this, you can get it from the Fleet Command downloads.

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/down...o=file&id=1142

Extract the Fleet Command DB editor to the Desktop then left click the FCDBEdit.exe and then click run.

Use the drop down menu to get the location of the db files.

For example.

Local Disc C:\Program Files\Jane's Combat Simulations\fleet command\Graphics

OR

Local Disc (C) \Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\fleet command\database\object.odb

OR

Local Disc C:\Program Files\Sonalysts Combat Simulations\fleet command\database\object.odb

Next Left double click on objects.odb

Next Left click View,

Next Left click objects.

Now a screen will pop-up called Object Records.

Note:

If you would like to make it easy to use the Fleet Command DB editor, extract the FCDBEdit.exe to one of the above locations, depending on whichever version of FC you have got

Look down the left hand side of the Object Records screen you will see a lot of numbers and names.

For example,

0001. 53 cm Torpedo
0002. 65 cm Torpedo
0003. A 244 Torpedo

Go down the records and till you come to 0101:Exocet and double click on it.

Then click the Weapon Only Fields tab, and check the boxes where it say

Requires Targets Lock Before Firing,
Provided with Target Snapshot Before Launch.

Next click Save Record.

Next click the X at the top on the right hand side of the screen and again on the Fleet Command Database Editor screen then click yes to save.

This should make the Exocet a much better ship killer.

Before you get into trouble with moderators about 'use of foul language'/profanity. You better make that "Disk".

Thank you very much for pointing that out, I hadn't notice that, but being dyslexic doesn't help.

Greatly appreciated.

No worries. A big company like Phillips (that invented CDs), employing plenty of educated marketing people, didn't get it right either. Ever looked on a "Compact Disc"?
