[REL] AI Sen Toku (I-400 class) - Page 3

miner1436 · 08-18-08, 07:22 PM

I encountered some problems while modding the midget sub, so I have put it on hold for a while.

wait, the AM and Sen Toku are the same? I thought the STo was the carrier and the AM the smaller boat with a reece plane (I think Japan had tons of classes like that)

No they are not the same, you are right there. The Sen Toku held four planes or three planes and parts for a fourth, something like that. But I wouldn't call it a "carrier", it had a launcher on the front. The planes would have to be taken out of the hanger, launched and then recovered by crane.

The AM is also a "hanger" type sub that can launch a plane. I am not up on all the classes like Keltos is, so maybe I said it wrong. They are not the same 'class' but they are the same type with a hanger for planes (that's all I meant by that). But the AM only held one plane I believe. So I just worded it wrong. But Keltos is working on one that is the smaller version, similar to the Sen Toku. I only stated it that way so that anyone not familiar with the Japanese subs (like me:rotfl

would know what I am talking about because they can see the Sen Toku in the game. And it's similar in appearance but a smaller version, I didn't mean they were the same. And from my limited knowledge, I also think you are right that they used different planes.

If you do a search there are some pictures of the sub he is making.

see www.combinedfleet.com (photo is wrong though)

The Type AM was a modified sub with a Jyunsen hull and a modified Sentoku tower which could only store two planes instead of three. They were designed because of a shortage in raw materials to build more Sen Toku.

It is a bit smaller then than the Sen Toku as well, as my model shows.

have you ever had time to go over the issues with the midget sub?

i am really more interested in a sinkable version with renown that has the correct looking draft height. (for my game fixes mod)

it is more important to me to have that than worrying about getting the AI version working.

GOOD WORK!

It's been a while since I have modded for SH4 now, but I remember with the midget sub it kept rolling when on the surface and flying around when I hit it with a torpedo. I could never find the solution for it.

keltos01 · 10-21-08, 12:51 AM

could you do a couple AI US subs for our japanese campaign please ?
and can your AI Sen Toku be used there as well ? Even if not playable it would make a very nice addition to our campaign, you'd be included in the credits off course

miner1436 · 10-21-08, 07:03 AM

Keltos, feel free to add my sub in your mod, I have taken a break from modding but feel free to look at my modified .sim file, change the US sub files to match those and then you will have AI US subs.

keltos01 · 10-21-08, 09:07 AM

Thanks a lot Miner1436 !

It will be nice to have a Sen Toku sail by when on a mission

I plan to add the Type AM (I-13 class) at a later stage, right now I'm happy driving the Jyunsen B.

Hi there, I just wanted to know how to add this in manually.. JSGME doesn't work for me, and manually adding them, is it like normal ships?

keltos01 · 04-18-17, 02:14 PM

Would anyone still have a copy of this modified sim file lying around?
