I just hit a Battleship in Scapa Flow and as soon as the torpedo made contact the game crashed (first ever for me in SHV).

I just switched to dropbox which is ALOT better than this crapy easy-share. Please let me know if you encounter any problems or if you have suggestions, thanks

I second that. Almost every freighter I hit with 2 torps needs some additional deck gun shots to encourage sinking. This gets tricky when in the middle of a convoy night attack, hehe.

Downloading to try, thanks for the mod. From the description I exceptionally like the randomness part - you never know what the effect of your torpedo will be. YEah!

It seems to me that the damage graphic for the torpedo is smaller than in the previous SH versions. I've understood and tested the torpedo radius back in SH4 and it did correlate with the size of the graphic. Also reading the NYGM manual the radius plays a key role when damage bleeds over into another compartment. Rob

Another question comparating older versions I played (SH3 stock/4 modded). Anyone noticed if this version apply key weak spots to the ships? Points where one torpedo can do the damage of many?

After playing for a while I manage to find weak points in many ships I encountered. For example; A 10000 tons Nippon Maru in SH4 only need one torpedo if you manage to hit a keel shot right in front of the funnel at the beginning of the stern section.

Is this still repro in SH5?

In sh3/4 each ship had compartments and if you hit them (ie. ammo storage on a BS.. ) then it'd do massive damage to the ship or just sink it in one hit. With sh5(stock) they changed how damage is done to a ship and with the flooding mechanics of the game in stock it was almost impossible to sink a ship with one hit.

I don't recall if sh5 still has the compartment damage model but this mod helps a great deal with making things more like sh3/4. I'm sure someone will come along and clarify everything better than me.

I installed your mod with the generic mod enabler and after install i observed that ur mod created in my game folder his own folder "critical hit for torpedoes"(im not talking about the folder from MODS).
Is that normal?

[Sone7]

Go to CH mod folder in MODS directory. There should be "data" just inside main mod folder (for example MODS/CriticalHits/data and not MODS/CriticalHits/CriticalHits/data).

yep, im an idiot you are right, thx.

Hello,
The Dropbox links are broken. I get the "critical hits 1.1 torpedos" from 24flotilla but I can not get "critical hits v 1.2" from anywhere. Is this version very necesary? Could you fix the links? Thanks anyway.
