Default Effective tactic against PT or MTB Boats

Hi all

found this works quite well. 8 out of 8 time I took less than 10 percent damage

run up on it at 40 kts, as you pass him on your beam, hard rudder over to the side he is on,

man your guns and blaze away at him, hit the f-11 to keep guns on him at all times. (supression and for effect) after a few loops,, he will blow up quite handly, Now slow and take on any survivors.

As for a dd's,, nothing worked out yet. Againts them the old cliche is so true,, "speed is life" The best tactic I have found is quoted by the great thinkers of Monty Python when they say,,

RUN AWAY........................RUN AWAY.........................

Sounds very good indeed .... i didn ´t have the time this weekend to test the mod .... so, how do you get the firing-solution, just run in and fire a straight shot?? or using the TDC as normal (at 40 knots??) :hmm: :hmm:

i will be pleased about a hint ......

I start with the bow gun on the approach, cpa of 50 yds or so, then switch to what gun will bear and continue to fire guns,, why waste a fish for 35gt

Hallo Boris,

vielleicht helfen Dir die 3 Skins schon ein wenig weiter. Ich recherchiere parallel noch im web.

Regarding the emblems.
You can resize the 3D object they appear on in any 3D program.
To get them to show,
change the ID they are useing for the texture
to match the ID of cfg#E01

(tell me if you notice any flaws)
Just a few suggestions... tone down the brightness and tweak the colour of the document to match the ambience of the rest of the items, and redo the drop shadow from the box

Default about the certificate

If you are using paintshop 7 or so,,

I might suggest to select all the gold, down tone it by 15 or so percent,, then add just a little noise to it,, .5 to maybe 2 at most to break up the so solid gold tone.

Where did you find a certificate?? I would be interested in that myself just for records sake!!

but thats jsut my two cents worth

OH and you said point out any errors,

One big one,,, its not on my machine yet!!!!!!!!hehehehehehehehe just teasing,,take your time,, this is a heck of a project,
I am loving it too!!

Thanks, I'm using gimp but it works in the same way I believe. I'm a beginner at graphics too Actually it looks not that bad but not that good neither, I'd better concentrate on something else :rotfl:
Like I said, if you want I can do the menu screens

Yes I did, the prinz-eugen link is full of great pics + nicely sized plans, I used one of these for the boat profile in the damage screen. But the other link looks interesting but doesn't work here.
And I just tested the above screen in game, it looks like sh!t back to the old one, I just kept the new case which doesn't look too bad with the s-boat badge. I think I'm gonna delete the clasp, the u-boat one is totally out of place and the s-boat one looks terrible. Plus it seems that this one was created late in the war and rarely awarded.
Did the Germans follow the British practice of having war heroes "Mentioned in Dispatches"? If so, maybe you could insert a little scroll of paper or a newspaper clipping in that clasp space to represent the honor. IIRC this has been treated as an award in other sims - it would be interesting to see it in SH3.
